Casa del Sol

We had a fantastic week long stay in this beautiful restored Colonial, private residence right in the heart of Antique. A large courtyard with flowers and trees anchors the open space that we loved to hangout in and play games, eat and just enjoy a beer or book. The bedrooms, lounge area restrooms and kitchen all border the courtyard. Clean with modern facilities that don’t take away from the charm of the historic property. Jon was great to work with, fast, responsive and very knowledgeable. Maria was kind enough to agree to cook breakfast for our family of 6 “yum”!! A fantastic family trip!!!!

A museum!

This place is a gem, absolutely adorable. The moment you walk in is a time capsule, so many treasures, to much to look at, is a museum! All the details are bespoke, you can spend two days just looking at the furniture and the decor. It has his own couple little libraries with interesting reads and very informative if you have the time. Location is walkable to restaurants, park and stores, and the host had amazing communication skills, I recommend this place 100% Cultured people’s dream!

Amazing History Great Location

We stayed at Casa del Sol for over a week during the holidays while our family attended language school. The house and grounds are stunning, the pictures are good but don't do it justice. It was great to have room for our family to spread out among the bedrooms (which aren't located right on top of each other) and have space around the house, courtyard, and kitchen to read, study, game, and relax. Since we arrived on Christmas Eve, i contacted the host ahead of time to see if we could arrange for some necessities and groceries to be purchased prior to everything closing. Not only did the host and the house staff get everything set, but the soup that they prepared was so good we now make it at home! The location is good - its a short 4 block walk to the markets around La Merced and the Arch, but it is distant enough (and not on the main route in/out of town) that it is relatively quiet at night - Antigua is a pretty loud town, full of celebrations, so this is key if you sleep lightly. The staff was great at giving us tips on where the processions and parades would be during the holidays, and where to find good local bread and food. The historical notes around the house are awesome as well - only in Guatemala can you stay in a place that was built before Jamestown, VA was even established.

Oooozes Colonial Spanish Charm

Casa del Sol was the perfect lodging choice for our 8 day stay in Antigua in early December, 2023. This rental is exactly as advertised-plus some. Charming 16th century Colonial Spanish home. All rooms open out onto the portals and further into the beautifully landscaped cobblestone central courtyard, creating lovely expanded living space. Flowering plants abound, creating an inviting oasis in the heart of the city. Expertly decorated with both Spanish and local Mayan artwork and antiques. Easily and comfortably accommodates 6-7 guests. This residence is less than a 5-block walk to the City’s Central Plaza-the heart of Antigua. Easy walking distance to a wide variety of restaurants and bars, the historic churches, convents and plenty of ruins that reflect the city’s 18th & 19th centuries destruction by earthquakes, but also revealing the marvelous architectural structures laid bare by the forces of nature. Jon, one of the property’s owners and our primary contact before, during and after our rental, was great to work with and more than willing to answer questions regarding the home as well as Antigua & recommendations for dining out. I’ve stayed in VRBO properties around the globe for decades and have been a VRBO host myself in the past. This property is the real deal and exudes history and charm in a convenient Center-city Antigua location. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!

With Age Come Grace

I have been using VRBO since it's inception. This is by far the most beautiful and peaceful place I have had the pleasure to stay in. As Jon said in an email, she's an old lady and they are protective of her. Like an abuela, she is welcoming, opening her doors to an oasis of calm in the middle of Antigua. Like an abuela, she has her wisdom gained from a long life. It's found in the peace of the garden, the pleasure in being outside under the porch roof during the afternoon rain. I could go on and on (obviously). Marie, the caretaker, is lovely. She lets you have your space but is there when needed. The house is nestled on a quieter street in town but all is immediately accessible. I look forward to returning.

A wonderful stay in real Antigua

This was an amazing stay - the Casa del Sol provided every comfort, but also an opportunity to participate in the unique history that makes Antigua a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The house itself is lovely - built in the traditional Spanish style with wide covered "corredors" with seating areas opening onto a magnificent enclosed central garden, and each ample room - living, dining, a super inviting eat-in kitchen, and the two bedrooms (the master with a large walk-in changing room and bath) - all accessed from the corredors. The connection of outdoor beauty and inside comfort is typical of traditional Antigua houses, and this is one of them. It's located in one of the most historic - yet most peaceful - parts of Antigua, just a few blocks from the famous central plaza and the cathedral, and directly across a cobbled street from one of the most famous Spanish convents, Las Capuchinas. The house was first occupied in 1568, yet it fully inhabits our own time, with every modern convenience - flat screen TV, good internet. And the attention of the wonderful housekeeper, Maria, who makes staying there effortless. If you want a place that's superficially Antigua but feels like the Marriott, this isn't it - it's the real deal, and will definitely be one of the best parts of your stay in Antigua.

Heaven

Casa del Sol was perfect. Spacious, comfortable, historic, beautiful, casual, relaxing, close to everything. We enjoyed the flowers blooming in the bright, sunny courtyard, the opportunity to relax, away from the Semana Santa crowds on the internal veranda, and explore all the pieces of history and artisenia displayed throughout the compound. With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and high ceilings, our multi-generational family of 5 could spread out for privacy, or congregate for movie watching or outdoor dining. Maria was an excellent resource to have as a caretaker on the property. She kept a low profile but was always available to cook a meal, do some laundry, or give advice on where to go for this or that. I loved our stay and will return again for a longer one.

Perfect place …

What can I say?… La Casa del Sol delivers what it advertises, it delivers what it says, it delivers what it promises and more … perfect location, available and kind House manager, enough spaces and rooms for everyone to enjoy and to have some private times and moments, a large central garden —-just beautiful and refreshing … many seating areas to study (especially if you are learning Spanish or to just read and relax), and, again, the location is perfect … closer to everything.. and if you get hungry, even closer to one of the more famous street food vendor in Antigua, just around the corner … it is a place to live and a place to make many memorable memories … it is indeed “La Casa del Sol ”… and the owner is perfect to work with…

Beautiful getaway in the heart of Antigua

The home was just beyond outstanding. It is everything you see in these pictures and more. Gorgeous resplendant garden and incredibly historical home, it's amazing just how quiet it still is despite being where it is. The home is located on a street where there is only another boutique hotel and some ruins, but still very close to everything. Communicating with Jon was really easy and pleasant, and Maria the hostess is soooo sweet. We loved spending time with her. All in all, my family knew from that first day that we would want to return here year after year. We could not have been happier with the stay. I was absolutely obsessed with the garden and the terrace. Don't pass this place up.

Pleasant, spacious, and historical close to town and amenities

Built originally for the Governor of Guatemala in the early 1500/1600’s, this house was purchased by the current owners in 1967. We loved — the cool breeze anytime when sitting in the beautiful garden courtyard — large living area with kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 5 single beds, and a double bed — 10 minute walk to town center — Holy Week procession on Friday passed on the street a few yards/meters away (that was so convenient) — about 3-4 blocks from the famous arch de Catherine (shown in many Antigua pictures) — close to shops and markets. — on-site property manager who is very responsive (hire Maria to do your laundry and see the meticulous cleaning and folding) — Jon was easy to work with and responded quickly. A couple of items to be aware of — the bedroom with 3 beds closest to street can have some street noise in the morning. The shutter keeps it very dark, though. — Internet worked well the whole week. But, the service isn’t fast enough to support large streaming such as movies. — A/C and heating is not common in Antigua and isn’t available. But, it isn’t really necessary because the temperatures don’t vary much and the court yard has a steady, cool breeze. — for those who need a squishy soft bed, the beds are firm, but comfortable. In short, it’s a pleasant stay with lots of space, authentic Antigua feel, and close to many features. P.S. Ride a “Tuk Tuk” at least once for the experience. Hang on and remember to breathe :D

House was the perfect location for a stay in Antigua with first timers. Maria was very nice and helpful. We all loved it. The only two cons, beds were a little bit hard and the layout of the bedrooms made it difficult for kids to stay in their own room. The rooms are spread out and the kids got scared. For adults and older kids - great spot!

A wonderfully charming & central colonial house with an enchanting courtyard. Loved our month stay!

My husband and I stayed at Casa del Sol in Antigua for a month in January 2022 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We found the historical house to be very charming and the courtyard space absolutely enchanting. The house is located in a central and lovely part of Antigua, only a very short walk to the main square, and an even shorter hop to many great restaurants and coffee shops in the neighbourhood. The kitchen was very well equipped and the house was spacious, very atmospheric with all its interesting decoration and wonderfully relaxing there was reliable internet connection. Maria the house keeper was very sweet, kept the house very clean and helped do the laundry for a tiny fee. Her family lived in the back courtyard and were very unobtrusive. We loved our stay at Casa del Sol and hope to be back one day! Thank you!

Loved the history of the casa!

Beautifully well kept with many artifacts from the time period that it was built in. Very comfortable with a lot of space for all of us to have our freedom. The girls, aged 7 and 10, loved to run around and play but at the same time were careful not to break or even touch anything that could be of historical value. I would stay at this casa again and recommend it to any visitor's who want to have a good travel experience. Plus, the location was ideal since it was within walking distance of the Central Park and the many store's and restaurant's! 5 star experience. Thanks Jon and Maria, the caretaker, who was friendly and very accommodating. Bruce Gutterman

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Jon Jickling

We are a family of three generations, spread over the USA who travel to Antigua as often as possible to enjoy the perfect climate and friendly local Guatemalan people and to relax in our simple, comfortable home.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

Antigua has a perfect climate, historic and ancient interests, a friendly diverse population of artists, expats, native Mayan people and young travelers. Casa del Sol is located in the colonial core close to the central plaza but in a quiet street away from the busiest part of town.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Hearing 16th century churchbells chiming the hours through the night, watching flocks of parrots squawking overhead, feeling the warm tropical sun and watching the dramatic sunset over three volcanoes.
