Light, airy and modern comforts in the historic center

This house was built twenty years to the exacting standards of a Mexican architect and an American owner. It has been well maintained and updated, as necessary. Located on a small dead-end street, the property is walking distance to everything in Oaxaca's historic center, but is remarkably quiet, especially in the evenings and at night.

On the ground floor you'll find a small sitting room, a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, all of which open to the interior courtyard. There is also an office with a futon that opens into a full-sized bed and a half bath. One floor up, you'll find the large master bedroom with queen sized bed and bath, with two sinks and a shower. This level also has two roof decks with lovely city and mountain views. On the top floor, there is a small bedroom with a full sized bed and a small bath with shower. This level also has a roof deck with lovely views and privacy.

The house has wifi throughout and a telephone you are welcome to use for calls within Mexico or to the United States and Canada.

Within a couple of blocks of the house, you'll find several good restaurants, coffee shops, a traditional covered market, and shops of various kinds. Santo Domingo, the zocalo and other tourist attractions are all reachable by foot in ten to fifteen minutes. The bus station is nearby and cabs are easily hailed on nearby streets

The owners of the property are Americans who fell in love with Oaxaca and wanted a home base in the city from which to explore the region. The house has been set up for our comfort and we trust you will be as happy there as we are.

Our local property manager, Amado, will meet you at the property when you arrive and is available to help with any issues that arrive during your stay. He is also an excellent source of information about Oaxaca. While we will most likely not be in Oaxaca when you are there, we are always available by phone or e-mail.

Alma will come to clean the house once a week and can be hired directly should you wish her to come more frequently.
