Photos and Description of the Recoleta vacation apartment rental
Apartment, 3 Bedrooms, 3.5 Baths Sleeps 4 (5 short term see notes)

Relive the history of Buenos Aires only 5 blocks from today’s Recoleta village. In 1894, when the country of Argentina was one of the wealthiest in the world with strong European ties, a Frenchman built this elegant residence on Calle Juncal. You can still feel the old world ambiance in the building’s beautiful church-like façade, tall ceilings, and architectural features, but you can also enjoy modern conveniences like a renovated 'American style' kitchen. This large three bedroom apartment (over 200 square meters or 2,200 square feet) has a large master suite with king size bed, walk-in closet and separate bath, shower and toilet areas. There is a second smaller loft bedroom (with 2 twin beds) with its own bathroom with shower. A fully equipped office/study with television, DVD player, HIGH SPEED Cable broadband internet access and wi-fi connection is tucked into a loft with skylight off the master bedroom.

(There is also a very small bedroom (with bed slightly smaller than a twin) and bath in what was formerly the maid’s quarters which could accommodate a 5th person.) Recently renovated by the same architect who did the Art Hotel, the apartment features 15 foot ceilings in the living and dining areas and master bedroom. The apartment also contains some antiques and features art work by several local artists which we encourage you to discover and enjoy as much as we have. With each trip we make, we add to our collection of Argentine art in the apartment.

The apartment has its own private, elegant entrance with marble stairs up to the second floor (considered the 1st floor in Argentina - but there is NO elevator). World class restaurants, cafes, and gourmet grocery and wine shops are all in the neighborhood and within easy walking distance. Two blocks away you can enjoy the café lined Plaza Mitre for an early morning coffee before setting out into one of the most walkable cities in the world; three blocks in the other direction, you’ll find a Metro stop on Avenida Santa Fe. And with the apartment's central location in the city, everything Buenos Aires has to offer is a short taxi ride away.

Please note on some days when we have a guest checking in and out on the same day, the maid will not always finish the cleaning until 4pm, but you may checkin earlier on this understanding.

Bookings are not confirmed until the deposit has been received.

Why Hamish Thomson chose Recoleta

I fell in love with BA on my first trip to South America and soon after bought this beautiful apartment as a home away from home and a great stepping off point for exploring.

What makes this apartment unique

The surrounding area of the apartment in Recoleta is famous for safe and friendly sightseeing and being close to all the fabulous amenities that BA has to offer.

Wow.... what a great apartment

5 of 5

We had the best time in BA and the best part was staying at this amazing apartment belonging to Hamish. He made the booking process a breeze and the apartment is way better and larger than the photo's show. We thought we were in Paris in some exclusive pad. Great location, try the local Malbec red from the wine store 20 feet from the front door and the lovely couple from the deli across the road have some delicious local cheeses, milk, cereals and bread for your stay. All so easy and Marcela arranged for us to be picked up at the airport. Her tips on some local restaurants were great for our anniversary dinner. We can't wait to come back.

Great Stay in Recoleta

My family spent a week at Hamish's lovely apartment in the Recoleta area and can't recommend both the apartment and the area highly enough. It was over the christmas break and the weather was quite hot and unusually humid. The apartment was well equiped to handle it it all and we had a great stay. The apartment is very handy to all amenities locally and we actually found the best shopping on Santa Fe a few blocks away. All the major sights are in walking distance except for San Telmo and La Boca which are just a short taxi ride away.

Marcela was a great help in picking us up from the airport and showing us the ropes in the apartment with plenty of handy tips for the local area.

Marcela and Hamish were awesome to deal with. Communication with the owner and agent was clear and precise; and we felt welcomed. The apartment was as described, clean and more than we expected. I would recommend this apartment to friends travelling to Buenos Aires.

Amazing apartment

5 of 5
Submitted: April 21, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
We arrived at this amazing apartment after 3 days in another smaller 50m2 apartment nearby. This fantastic airy apartment was four times bigger with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 4 toilets. The main bedroom is huge with a great loft study off it. There is another small bedroom upstairs from the study for 1 person with their own bathroom. There is a huge dining and lounge area with 15 ft vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and off that another loft bedroom with its own bathroom. All the bedrooms face a rear courtyard so it was nice and quiet, but there was never much external road noise. The apartment is full of beautiful original Argentinian artworks which make you feel you are staying somewhere really special. The apartment was everything and more Hamish said it would be. Marcela was a great help meeting us and explaining the apartment and location. We loved the bottle of wine and flowers she gave us as a welcome gift and there is a great wine store a few steps from the front door to re stock and diagonally across the street a deli where we bought basic items for the kitchen even though we ate out most times. We were only a couple on a holiday but highly recommend this beautiful apartment in the heart of Recoleta to small family groups or multiple couples travelling together and would definitely stay here again.

Apartment in Recolata

The art has been changed so the VRBO picture looks much better than the actual apartment, which is spacious but worn and very drab. The carbon monoxide from the busy street below, coupled with the noise disenables ones choice to open the doors to the tiny deck, which opens up to a flat faced homely building. the location is good, the beds hard hard hard. And expect to buy your own toilet paper and kitchen napkins and saran wrap. AND remember... Marcela is NOT a concierge, she is somewhat helpful but begrudgingly so. i would not go back.
