We have done several one month stays in other locations and this is by far the nicest house. All the rooms on the 1st floor (2 living rooms and the dinning room) look out on a courtyard though huge windows. It is filled with original art.
Both the guest bedrooms on the 1st floor have their own bathrooms. Most importantly, for me, they have desks. In addition there was a wifi repeater in the room. I was able to set up my 27” display and work just as I do back in Sonoma, CA. The Internet was very good.
The master bedroom is on the 2nd floor and is huge, with a fireplace. It has a deck that looks down into the courtyard and over to the Agua Volcano. I will miss getting up every morning, going out on the deck and looking at the Volcano, plus usually taking a picture of it. We often meditated on the deck. The master also had a wifi repeater so the signal was strong on the 2nd floor.
We had a staff of two people serving us. Juanita cleaned the house on Monday, Wed and Friday - plus did our laundry. Marylou took Spanish everyday and loved practicing it with Juanita. She and Marylou became friends - having conversations in Spanish. Effrian is the property manager and takes care of the yard. One night we wanted a fire and he built a great one in the beautiful fireplace in the living room.
The house is very close to two places that became favorites. I think we ate lunch at Vivero & Cafe de la Escalonia every other day. You pass by it on your walk downtown. The restaurant is in a beautiful garden setting. Toward the end we discovered Caoba Farms, the same distance, but going away from town.
Antigua has great Uber service and if we were out at night we took one home from the center of the town for about $2.
Eugenia, the owner, was always very responsive to all my inquires both before renting and during our stay.
