La Casa Arriba in San Miguel de Allende

La Casa Arriba is a very special guest house high on the hill above the historic center of San
Miguel de Allende with three independent casitas for short or long term vacation stays.

Terraces lush with plants step down the hill from the entrance. Each casita occupies its own level,
offering enough privacy for unrelated guests to occupy La Casa Arriba, or for an extended family to
occupy all of the casitas, enjoying a balance between privacy and space for shared activities. There
is a gas-burning fireplace in each casita, and all are comfortably furnished for relaxing. Each
casita is furnished with a queen-sized bed, and contains a minimum of a refrigerator, microwave,
coffeemaker, and all tableware and utensils.

A shared roof terrace with an expansive view of the town’s famous historic district and at least 7
of its beautiful churches is accessible from the central patio. The roof terrace is partially under
cover, and is furnished comfortably for relaxing, rain or shine. Guests in all three of the casitas
have use of the roof terrace, intermediate terraces and central patio. Opening onto the patio is
the communal kitchen for use by our guests.

- La Casita Terraza has a large bedroom with a sitting area and small kitchenette overlooking the
central patio and its fountain, and a grand and private terrace overlooking the town’s historic
district. The large 5-fixture bathroom has a combination tub/shower and shares the terrace’s
wonderful view. The room is furnished with an eclectic mix of antiques, traditional Mexican
furniture and handcrafts.

- La Casita Alhambra is a very large room with areas for sitting, writing, sleeping, and dining. The
casita has a kitchen area, private bath, and an exotic Moroccan-style den with lounging pillows
around a central fountain. It also has a private terrace with a view overlooking the historic
district. In addition to the queen-sized bed, there is a full-sized sleep sofa. The furniture and
finishes in the entire suite have an exotic flair. Because of its large size and fully functional
kitchen it is suitable for extended stays.

- La Casita Escondida is a quiet 2-room suite with a private stair off the main entry. It includes
a separate sitting room, large bedroom, kitchenette, bathroom with shower and private patio with a
wall fountain. It has direct access to the central patio, the common kitchen and the roof terrace.
It is furnished in a simple Mexican style with traditional mesquite furniture, equipal chairs and
wool rugs from Oaxaca.

San Miguel offers a wide variety of activities, but the most enjoyable is the opportunity to explore
the narrow cobbled streets of this colonial Mexican town, or to sit in the central jardin and watch
the passing scene. Hiking, horseback riding, hot springs, golf, tennis, and tours are all easily
accessible. San Miguel also offers many opportunities to study painting, sculpture, pottery,
photography, and of course Spanish. A guidebook is provided in each of the casitas, describing the
town's many galleries, shops and restaurants, and includes maps of each neighborhood.

There are three private 1-bedroom casitas on the property:

Casita Escondida  $370/week
Casita La Terraza $450/week
Casita Alhambra   $450/week

Monthly rates may be available, depending on the season.
