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!

I enjoyed my stay in this beautiful house, with a quiet atmosphere. The house is well located to walk anywhere in Antigua. Rene and his team are very kind people who are there to assist you in all your needs. This place exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Rene to you and your team for your hospitality. I can't wait to come back again.

Perfect spot

We stayed here for a girls’ trip. Rene set us up with a driver from the airport. Everything went smoothly and we were given the keys and a tour of the place. The place was super cute and clean. The pictures just don’t do it justice. We were close to town where we walked everywhere and felt safe doing so. I’d definitely stay again.

Great location, quiet area, short walk to central Antigua!

Grateful to Señor René, Señora Vilma, Señor Santiago, and Erwin for making my first visit to Guatemala a true success! My friend and I felt safe and truly cared for throughout our stay. Transportation to/from GUA was a breeze, and when we had questions regarding tours we were connected with a driver and tour guide all within reasonable price. The welcome fruit basket was a nice touch, as well as the personal tour of the beautiful property. Would stay here again! Thank you!

Amazing

This was truly an amazing house! It was beautiful, enclosed and safe, a little area outside for kids to run around, and very solid kitchen, very spacious, living area, and bedroom, and a cool small roof area, which definitely requires caution with kids. Rene was very friendly and communicative, and I just couldn’t have been more amazed with this place.

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.

Perfect for our family

Rene is an exceptional host. He arranged transportation for us from the airport, gave recommendations on services and things to do, provided a maid service and laundry and was there for any and all questions. The place was perfect for our family. The pool table was such a great bonus for two teens. They each had their own room upstairs and the rooftop viewing area was great to see the surrounding mountains. I would stay here again and again. Just outside the hustle and bustle of the main square but super close to the new fancy mall. Thank you so much Rene. You are the perfect host.

Most Amazing VRBO Property We Have Had

This house is the most amazing VRBO house we have ever stayed in. The host Rene is amazing. He was extremely communicative, he allowed us to check in early and it was very thorough in showing us around his amazing house. Rene had a platter of fresh local fruit and detailed instructions about the property and area when we arrived. Renee was extremely attentive and checked on us several times to make sure we were satisfied. At the end of our stay, Renee arranged for Driver to get us back to Guatemala City airport. I will always try to stay at this property when I return to Antigua.

Absolutely wonderful

This was our first visit to Antigua. We did. It know a lot about the area, but this house seemed perfect. We could not have had a better stay anywhere. The house is gorgeous and fully equipped with everything you need. The rooftop terrace is perfect. We walked everywhere and it was great to come back to the house and relax. It’s so quiet and peaceful. Rene is a wonderful host. Santiago picked us up from the airport and we hired him for a few more trips around the area. Highly recommend him. We really enjoyed Rene’s restaurant too. Highly suggest this property and we hope to be back one day.

A Must Stay

If you are visiting Antigua, we highly recommend booking this amazing place. Rene was a great host and his housekeeper Vilma was awesome. We stayed here for a week, while my husband and I connected with his family. The house is beautiful and had plenty of space for us and our guests. We especially loved the rooftop deck, where we were able to get some amazing shots of Vulcan de Fuego erupting in the mornings. Being a gated community, we felt very safe. We were also within a short walking distance to markets and the bus terminal. In the evenings, we enjoyed a few rounds of billiards in the upstairs loft. We really enjoyed our trip to Antigua and appreciated having such an amazing place to retreat to at night. Again, we highly recommend staying here when visiting Antigua.

Perfect Vacation!

As soon as we arrived in Antigua, Rene was there to greet us; he gave us a small tour of the house, all the information needed, and his info about who he was. He was very friendly and pleasant. The house was in neat condition and very cozy; it was precisely the description written on the internet; our idea for this vacation was only to relax and forget our daily routines, and the house was perfect for our purpose. We also discovered that Rene owned a very nice establishment where he provided transportation. We decided to go, and ultimately ended up feeling full of energy and younger, so we ended up dancing salsa after many years of not dancing. We had a wonderful vacation that ended up being too short. Would recommend staying here a million times over.

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!
