We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful colonial home. It is thoughtfully appointed with everything you need to feel comfortable and at home in Antigua. The host, René, is responsive and helpful, and Vilma, the housekeeper, keeps everything immaculate — even taking care of laundry, which is such a gift while traveling.The property is set on beautifully maintained grounds with stunning views of the surrounding volcanoes. It feels very safe and secure. The complimentary airport transfers are a wonderful perk; Santy, who manages the transport service, is reliable and happy to arrange additional transportation as needed.René also owns a popular local restaurant and bar, La Paloma, where he sometimes performs as a musician. Later in the evenings, the atmosphere becomes lively with dance music and dancing — an experience not to be missed.This home was an excellent base for us as we explored the region on numerous day trips and weekend excursions. We would happily stay again.

Don Rene is always very attentive to all of us, and we keep going back to his wonderful home. Vilma, the housekeeper, is just a 10-minute walk to the center of town, and the new shopping center Telares is only a five-minute walk away.

Rene’s home is lovely! It has plenty of space for you to unwind and relax after a day around town. He and Vilma are very welcoming and friendly. Rene is quick to respond to any questions you may have and checks in throughout your stay to ensure everything is going well. The small rooftop deck is a nice treat where you can get a great view of El Volcán de Agua. There’s plenty to do near by and can also walk to a grocery store/shopping center. I will definitely keep this on my list to revisit and recommend to anyone planning a trip to Antigua.

Lovely home, host, and housekeeper. This was a great slightly tucked away quiet location where me and my 3 girlfriends were able to walk everywhere our entire stay. The home decor is impeccable. The fruit basket was a perfect welcome after a very long travel day from Lake Atitlan. Beds are on the firmer side. Rene our host was attentive and always helpful. We had a great time two nights in a row at his restaurant/salsa club Las Palmas. I highly suggest checking out! Great food, talented musicians, and good vibes. All around wonderful place to stay while visiting Antigua.

Beautiful, immaculate, fully equipped authentic Antiguan home rich in character and wonderful host!

Rene was a stellar host who responded promptly and clearly to all inquiries and went above and beyond by driving us to a restaurant the evening we arrived as the traffic delayed our arrival until 9PM. Throughout our stay Rene ensured that any questions we had about the local area were thoughtfully answered. From the moment we arrived, we felt as though we were in a safe, authentic, upscale community embedded in a larger working class neighborhood. Loved the fact that despite being tourists, we did not feel like tourists and were able enjoy the local way of life - transportation, markets, little shops and the like. We were so pleased with "our" value-laden home. Rene has equipped his home with EVERYTHING you might need: ceiling fans everywhere, floor fans everywhere, beautiful welcome fruit basket and biscotti, extra pillows, soap, toothpaste, extra water bottles, beautiful Mayan decor, fully-equipped kitchen, ample towels, loads of light switches, ample closet space and hangers, beautiful landscaping, a pool table, wonderful jazz music, and so much more. Stepping into this home is like being welcomed into a friend's charming and detail-oriented home. Enjoyed a lovely long chat with Vilma, the housekeeper, who maintains an IMMACULATE house. The house is part of a small, charming neighborhood of traditional-style homes set behind a secure gate. Thanks to the many windows and skylights the house is bright throughout the day. Am running out of space. Fantastic!! Will be back!

One of the best properties I’ve stayed at!

Rene is as good of a host as you can have. He will make every effort to take care of you . His house is fabulous! Extremely quiet and secure location. 10 minute walk to a modern shopping center and in the other direction it’s an easy walk to the main square. On site house keeper who is always there to help. I can’t recommend this listing high enough. Thank you Rene. I hope I can stay here again.

Beautiful property

Rene was absolutely the best host during our short stay. Unfortunately, we weren't able to complete the length of our stay due to a medical emergency that prompted us to leave sooner than planned but Rene was not only understanding and supportive but also made it a point to reach out after we left to ensure my daughter was doing ok. The medical emergency had nothing to do with the property or an accident. We will return once again in our future and look to once again stay in this beautiful home. Every inch of this home is gorgous. Thank you again!

Antigua vacation

This was a beautiful, clean, safe, and quiet home in a gated neighborhood in Antigua. It was about a 10 minute walk from the central city, so it was quiet but still within walking distance or a $3-5 Uber for everything we wanted to do in Antigua. Highly recommend this place!
