Beautiful family home, great service, inspiring view
We were in town for a wedding and decided to stay for 4 days once we saw the photos and description of Casa Cantil. We were not disappointed. The house is beautifully designed, and no comfort or detail has been overlooked. Imagine staying at the posh home of some impossibly glamorous friends. The staff is discrete yet friendly and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and at ease. Ciro and Isidora took care of us and made sure everything was clean and ordered, seemingly all the time. Doña Cuca, the cook, pampered us with outstanding meals, so much so that we did not want to eat out. The view of the lake from the bedrooms and especially from the terrace is breathtaking. The combination of colors – blues, greens and the brightness of the flowers with the town and the lake spread out below is memorable. Having drinks on the terrace at sunset is not to be missed, it must be the best view in Valle de Bravo! Finally, Mariana, the owner, is quick to respond and helped us to organize several extra local services such as a driver and a hairdresser plus makeup artist. Without question, we would return the next time we stay in the area.

Disliked: Check-in, communication
Amazing experience overall! The view is stunning, and the staff are extremely warm and welcoming. The cooking felt like being in someone’s home and the care put into the beautiful table settings was incredible.
This is a gorgeous house and the staff were all super friendly and helpful! One bit of warning is that it is on the top of a narrow hill and a little difficult to get to, but once you get there, it is worth it!
Amazing property: beautiful house, magnificent view, delicious food and excellent service. We were a group of 14; had a fabulous time, complete relaxation, and were serviced by an incredible staff. One of those vacations you will never forget.
We were in Valle de Bravo for a wedding. Isidora and Ciro made us so welcome and went out of their way to help us with everything we needed , including an amazing pre wedding supper. Thank you so much for making our stay so enjoyable.

This is an extraordinary property with stunning views. We were so impressed with the amenities and wonderful staff. The home cooked meals were so delicious and convenient, complete with beautiful table decorations everyday. The home is maintained to perfection and we felt welcome and comfortable from the minute we arrived through the end of our stay. We recommend this home in the highest regard!

De las mejores vacaciones que hemos tenido
Estar en Casa Cantil fue una experiencia maravillosa, desde la calidad de las colchas, los hermosos jardines, la alberca con una vista impresionante de Valle, la comida hecha por doña Cuca en ollas de barro, los mantelitos y servilletas bordadas a mano que cambiaban cada día, todo el staff que nos hizo sentir como en casa. Ya estamos planeando nuestra próxima visita porque nos faltaron días para seguir disfrutando de un lugar tan hermoso. Recomendamos Casa Cantil desde principio a fin, desde el primer mail con Mariana la dueña hasta el último abrazo que le dimos a su staff fue para nuestra familia una experiencia inolvidable.
Sentimos que tenemos una casa en Valle que nos espera con los brazos abiertos. Gracias por unas vacaciones maravillosas!!

Our weekend in Valle at Casa Cantil
We went as a group of 5 couples to Casa Cantil during February 2010 and absolutely had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful and we were all very comfortably separated in one of 5 private rooms all with their own bathroom. We enjoyed eating at the house and i highly recommend using this option as their staff is very attentive and the meals were very very good. We enjoyed a wood burning fireplace every night as there are a total of 3 in the house and the view out of the living room and outside terrace and garden did not fail to impress every day of our stay. We will for sure repeat as guests of Casa Cantil in the future and if anybody is thinking of choosing this location you will not be dissapointed. We also were very pleased with the owners who attended our every need.

Casa Espectacular es poco al describir esta casa
Casa Cantil se ha convertido en nuestra casa favorita, de verdad es algo espectacular, todos quedamos muy impresionados por la vista y la casa esta increíble. Mi familia y yo pasamos un fin de semana en esta maravillosa casa, mi papa y mi hermano son arquitectos y estaban encantados con la casa al igual que todos los demás, la disfrutamos muchísimo. El servicio de todos los que trabajan en la casa fue excelente, la comida deliciosa, vale mucho la pena probar los platillos de Doña Cuca. La casa esta para no querer salir nunca de ella, una felicitación muy grande a los dueños por que aparte de ser unas personas encantadoras en verdad lo que tiene ahí es un paraiso.

Casa de Valle de Bravo
Es una casa maravillosa, todo esta cuidado con esmero y detalle. Las vistas, el lago, la comida, el silencio, el servicio, la piscina climatizada... etc.
Todo esta pensado con un gusto exquisito, el menu que dispone la casa es cocina tipica mexicana que nada puede envidiar a un restaurante de lujo.
Los dias se hacen cortos en esta casa.
Sin duda repetiria la estancia.
Gracias a los dueños y a el equipo que cuido de nosotros durante el fin de semana.
un abrazo.
