WHEN YOU STEP INTO THIS PRIVATE, TRANQUIL OASIS of manicured lawns, fountains and flowers, fed by a natural spring and sheltered by two-hundred-year-old Pirules (pepper trees), you will know you are in an environment where you can truly relax.
Our elegant, colonial-style hillside casa with three bedrooms and 3 l/2 baths, is just a ten minute walk from San Miguel's historic center. The property includes a separate, self-contained casita with its own fully-equipped kitchen and three piece bath.
Casa Los Pirules was carefully constructed in 1989 with an eye to retaining some of an old hacienda's original stonework as well as to provide comfortable, usable, light-filled rooms decorated with thoughtful artistic detail.
Even before you unpack, we suggest you pour a refreshing cold drink and wander out onto one of the flower-filled patios to admire the view. (You'll probably spend a lot of time doing this during your stay--whether it's watching the special play of light on the spires and domes of San Miguel, viewing flocks of birds at sunset, or admiring spectacular fireworks displays that celebrate Mexican holidays).
In the main house, marble floors, Persian and Mexican carpets, carefully selected furniture, and original paintings and sculptures, add to the elegance and charm of every room. In the living room, with it's soaring boveda ceiling, you can curl up on the cozy sofa to watch a movie on the Plasma flat screen, play music from the CD library, or just light some candles and socialize with family and friends.
The open-concept dining room seats six to eight people and Beatriz, our very helpful maid, will provide you with fresh, clean table linens.
Casa Los Pirules has two bedrooms in the main house, both with king size beds and private ensuites. We provide top quality bed linens, down duvets, pillows and towels, bath soap, toilet tissue and kleenex for your comfort. Each bedroom looks out onto a different part of the lovely garden.
The casita has one queen size bed and one single bed. It can sleep three people and has its own bath and fully equipped kitchen. From the casita, one can view the green fields and the Santa Rosa mountains in the distance.
Many of our guests appreciate the private office just off the rooftop patio. Wireless service is provided.
Beatriz and Miguel, our maid and gardener will ensure that your stay in our home is comfortable and relaxing. They have been in our employ for the past twenty-one years. Needless to say, we don't know what we would do without them. Beatriz will provide you with laundry and cleaning services five days a week. This is included in your rental fee. Also, our guests are always impressed with Miguel's gardening skills. We can honestly say he has created one of the finest gardens in San Miguel.
We love our beautiful Mexican home and are delighted at the possibility of sharing it with you. We'll do our best to ensure that your stay in San Miguel de Allende ranks as one of your best holiday experiences ever.
