CASA SEIS FUENTES
San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
5 Bedrooms and 6.5 Bathrooms (Sleeps 10)

Casa Seis Fuentes is an absolutely beautifully renovated 300-year old casa with original three-foot thick adobe walls. Its location, only three blocks from the Jardín, the main square, is perfect as it offers guests an easy walk to many shops and restaurants. Casa Seis Fuentes is spacious and bright and throughout this wonderfully decorated house are many antique furnishings. Everything has been done to ensure guests’ comfort and all the very nicely appointed bedrooms have a bathroom en suite, TV, separate volume control for the house stereo system, mini kitchen, fireplace and a private terrace. Other terrific features include a home theatre with a huge screen, fully equipped exercise room, a wine cellar and a lovely rooftop terrace with spectacular 360-degree views of the city and comfy chairs around a table under a pergola. This fully staffed house has been featured in Architectural Digest.

Like so many great Mexican casas, Seis Fuentes has a series of enchanting terraces with flowing fountains and a large loggia with a fireplace as well as dining and sitting areas. It looks out to the beautifully landscaped courtyard, which has a heated pool with a wall fountain. The charm and style of the colonial period combined with every modern convenience makes Casa Seis Fuentes one of the most sought after houses in San Miguel.

Notes

• Heating for the pool is included.
• Smoking is not permitted indoors.
• The price of food and beverages is not included in the rental price. The weekly cost is about $150 to $175 per person. It's best to advance Carlos enough money for 2-3 days shopping at time. He will give you the bill, which will include any taxi charges for shopping.
• For Sunday arrivals, as the staff is off, there is no dinner service but welcome hors d'oeuvres and drinks are provided.
• There are two small residents at the house: Alice, a very private rabbit, and Claudio, a very social and friendly miniature rooster.
