My husband named this The Indiana Jones house because it has so much old world character. You enter right off Plaza San Fernando ( the best local plaza in town) and wind your way along beautiful old columns decorated with tons of plants and even a huge cement skull on one column, smiling at you, as you wind your way up a flight of stairs to your Villa with balconies a block long over looking the plaza and fountain. My husband recently had knee replacement surgery and had no problem with the flight of stairs as there are good strong rails and it's only 1 flight.

The first floor includes a bedroom, bathroom with shower, well-equipped kitchen, large dining room, and a huge living room with a T.V. and Netflix. We found the TV and WIFI worked well, and we got hooked on Netflix while staying here.The next floor has the master bedroom, another lovely bath full of plants, a huge closet area, another sitting room, and a gorgeous, large, roof top terrace. There is a 3rd bedroom off the kitchen--up a flight of stairs that we did not use, as it was just the 2 of us. The owner had fresh flowers in every room and distilled water all around--we never ran out and we were here for nearly a week. There are 2 hot water heaters, so you'll never run out of hot water either! The furnishings and appointments make you feel like you are in an old Hacienda, and the homeyness and character radiates throughout, making it very, very special.

We loved being right on the Plaza. There was always something going on, and we were serenaded nightly by singers, mariachis, even Opera. Yes, as with all plazas in Mexico or Italy, if you want to be away from it all, stay in the country, as the music and happy families permeate the Villa balconies, and in the mornings you wake up to church bells, roosters, etc. Personally we love this type of experience! I am a light sleeper, but I found it easier to sleep with all the beautiful sounds, not difficult, as stated by a prior reviewer. The town is charming and we felt safe and secure in this lovely home.

The housekeeper Sote was sweet and well trained and kept the home in great shape. There is a W/D if you need it. We used Lorena the house manager for a tour--which we broke into 2 days-- due to my husband's recent knee surgery. She took us to the mines and ex-Haciendas nearby and it was fascinating. I recommend you lock down the price before you go, as we didn't ,and she kept raising it as we went along. We highly recommend this place!
