A beautiful apartment in downtown Oaxaca. You are walking distance to the zocalo (town square) where shops, museums and restaurants are plentiful and varied. You'll be tempted to spend more time than you should sipping margaritas on your city view terrace with the world famous Monte Alban in the background. The neighborhood is eclectic in nature with the full spectrum of Oaxacan life from a multi Grammy award winning singer to Triquis Indians in traditional huts all represented in a safe, friendly family atmosphere. There is a Cafe' next door and Restaurant Humito a few doors down. There are also various Mom and Pop markets nearby.
Prior to your arrival the apartment is cleaned and sanitized to covid protocols. The apartment includes cleaning accessories (broom, dust pan, mop and bucket and various sanitizing agents) for your use during your stay. If cleaning sounds like a bad idea while on vacation, a full cleaning can be arrange as many time a week as you like for a charge of 600 pesos each visit. Emily, the building manager, will be available to try to help with any problems that may arise during your stay.
Come and see us. We think you'll love the place.

Lovely, spacious apartment with a huge private terrace and unobstructed view of the city! Emily was quick to respond to questions and very helpful. She recommended a taxi driver, Lionel, who we used to get to and from downtown. It was a quick drive, but too far and steep for us to walk. There are two exceptional restaurants close to the apartment - Humito and Dum Cocina Asiatica - a real plus.
I'm glad you enjoyed your stay, even though the 4 stars is really going to hurt our standing. Please let us know what more we could have done to make you happy since it is our only goal. Are our daily contacts to see if everything is ok, too much? You seemed so happy! Was it the street work? I know that 4 stars seems like a fine rating , but VRBO counts anything below a 5 star as a negative rating since our Premier Host status depends on a 4.8 average.
The hosts were prompt in responding to our communications.Easy check in and out.The Apartment is more like a home with a fully stocked kitchen.Recommendations: Provide wash cloths.Would rent again.Enjoyable neighborhood with access to restaurants and coffee shops.
We were really happy with this apartment for our stay in Oaxaca City. It's in a quieter neighborhood, we loved the outdoor terrace and the views. It was very clean and we had everything needed. We especially appreciated the property manager Emily, she was extremely responsive and addressed any questions and needs that we had promptly. Great restaurant a few doors down, Humito, and also a panaderia just about a 5 minute walk away.
We had the most wonderful time staying at Anthony's apartment. His daughter served as our host and was most obliging with any requests that we had. She lined us up drivers to take us to Monte Alban, did a couple of grocery runs for us, gave us suggestions about where to go and what to do in Oaxaca. The property itself was amazing. The patio view was absolutely outstanding. I would highly recommend that anyone considering a stay in Oaxaca consider this property.

A great little place
We stayed 6 nights here in Oaxaca City. The views were lovely, and the location was great after a full city day. Nice to come back and relax with a great view. The beds are comfortable, a bit loud at times, but hey it's the city. If we had any problems, Anthony was johnny on the spot to help us out. Would stay again.
found it a great spot to stay for 2 couples. nice outdoor space with view that was well used. comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, quiet at night. property mgr lives downstairs and was very responsive. only slight drawback was travel time to centro which we did not mind doing for the week we were there but something to be aware of.

Thank you so much for the kind review. I just wanted to clarify for readers who may be confused by "travel time to centro" that the reviewer is referring to walking time to the zocolo not taxi time. Most people walk to the zocolo in about 15 minutes and a taxi is literally 2 minutes.
You will be in a nice neighborhood with music and food options. Within in walking distance to the zocolo. Emily was always responsive to our requests. Highly recommend.
Such a good choice: - 2 couples, each of us had our own "wing", bathroom and sense of privacy- patio/deck is expansive, well furnished in shade and in the sun and at night. It is indeed a beautiful view.- All the furniture, art and kitchen stuff felt more like a home than a rental place. Good taste, but not pretentious.- Very responsive host, daily check ins over the course of our week there.
We loved our time in Oaxaca and this apartment was a lovely space away from the bustle and noise downtown. Emily was a gracious and attentive host and helped us resolve two small issues quickly. The apartment has very basic kitchen equipment and dishes but is spacious with a lovely view. The location can’t be beat!
Spectacular view, lovely spacious rooms. Well worth it. The owner stayed in touch well through the VRBO messages board, however the property manager was hard to get a hold of.
The owner, his daughter, and wife were wonderful attentive hosts the apartment was truly lovely with an amazing view of the mountains. The garden and outdoor spaces are gorgeous; you're in walking distance to the Templo Santo Domingo (12 minutes on foot) along with proximity to amazing restaurants and shops. Would love to keep this place a secret but we owe this amazing family 5 stars for their attentiveness, great communication, and all around fabulous experience. We will definitely return to this magical home!
My family and I loved the view and the open space to spend time outside (bring your mosquito repellent for the evening ;-). The space was clean, and I loved that they had Oaxacan coffee for us to prepare. Hosts also left some water for us in the fridge. There are two tienditas half a block away to purchase basics. The check-in was a little bumpy, but it was solved promptly. I received compliments for finding this space for us. If you don't mind a few stairs and a hill with narrow streets (hard to avoid in Oaxaca), this can be your home for a few days. We look forward to visiting again. Ah! I also have to add that you will love the Tlayudas you can find every evening a few steps away.
This is a lovely place with a fabulous view. A bit of a walk from the center if you have mobility issues but absolutely not a dealbreaker as close to other nice neighborhoods and easy to grab a taxi for the walk home. It's worth it to have the view of the valley. The fabulous outside patio makes this a very nice place to stay. Apartment has a good layout and very comfortable. Emily and Camilo responded well to our inquiries and were very helpful and kind.
We would return!
Nice Neighborhood Location a short walk from Centro
Conveniently located property, with a view, about a 15-20 minute walk from the Zocalo. Neighborhood includes a fabulous restaurant, Humito Cocina, which is maybe 2-3 minute walk from the apartment and features breakfast, dinner, and music in the evening several nights during the week. The walk from Centro back to the apartment is a bit up hill, but that serves to provide a beautiful evening view. The street in front was under repair during our stay, so we didn't bother with taxis. We easily walked all of Centro and several of the surrounding neighborhoods from our location. Fitness tracking reports that we walked nearly 45 miles during our 6 night stay. I loved the location and really enjoyed the independence of staying in an apartment and the feel of the local neighborhood. My spouse would perhaps have preferred more centrally located accommodations, particularly for evenings out. But we had no experience that caused any concern. And we really enjoyed getting to know Oaxaca.
This is an amazing place with spectacular views of the city and a huge outdoor living space. It is close enough to walk into the center of town but a little further away so felt less touristy. The owner was so responsive and communicated well throughout our stay and checked in regularly to make sure we had all we needed. The beds in the room with two beds were very hard.

Thank you so much fo the kind review. I wish you had let me know that the bed's firmness was too much for you liking. We have mattress toppers that might have helped with that issue.
