Description from the owner

Custom Home w/ rooftop terrace/panoramic views San Miguel

Casa Puesta Del Sol is a modern custom built Spanish Colonial style home perched on a hilltop in Ojo De Aqua surrounded by pastel color villas which some say is reminiscent of Florence, Italy. The casa accommodates up to 8 persons and has 3 baths. There are sweeping panoramic views of the city from daybreak to sunset into star studded evening skies hovering over flickering city lights.

This special home has an “old world" charm but boasts all modern conveniences including: water purification system, radiant heat, 4 gas fireplaces (one on rooftop), custom kitchen w/oak cab...inets and state of the art GE Profile stainless steel appliances, convection oven w/warmer drawer, wine captain, 6 burner gas cook top w/griddle, dishwasher, side by side refrig/freezer w/ice and water in the door and a Saeco cappuccino and espresso machine, There is a large double copper sink w/pull out water/spray faucet. For security an intercom system has been installed near front door w/2 phones one up and downstairs. The house has a local telephone and vonage, cable TV and wifi internet access. You may want to bring your laptop. There is off street pkg w/remote operated double doors.

The casa is tastefully decorated w/faux painted walls of various colors and textures and interesting details including soaring ceilings ranging from boveda to tile w/wood beamed and woven bamboo ceilings w/recessed lighting w/dimmer controls for atmosphere. There are two custom fountains and numerous plantings and gardens throughout the entrance and rear of the home and up onto the second floor balcony. There are two built in murals which were hand painted, fired and installed. The outdoors literally come into the villa through triple double atrium doors, a giant atrium entranceway w/fountain and huge palm tree and other large windows and skylights well placed throughout the villa. There is a large rooftop terrace with conversation area seating as well as dining area for 8 and 3 lounge chairs to “soak” up the pleasant san Miguel sun! The furniture, lamps, chandeliers, bedding, drapes and other window coverings have all been personally chosen and custom made locally. Some of the artwork and all of the photography is original and depict beautiful local scenery.

There are two king mstr bedroom suites have w/romantic decor and fireplaces. They are located on the second floor of the home which have expansive views and including the rear garden and fountain. The king size beds have pillow top mattresses, rooms have soaring ceilings one king has a boveda ceiling bth cable tv/dvd players. There are ceiling fans w/lighting in each bedroom. The bathrooms are custom tiled and have artistic and interesting features including “waterfall” shower, faux clouds on ceiling and double hand painted sinks.

Between the two bedrooms there is a “salon” area w/double pull out couch, LCD TV and DVD player. There is an ipod docking station connected to the stereo TV so you can listen to all your favorite music also, vonage phone and wireless router. This is a perfect area for a couple or children.

The villa is accessed through double antique doors accented from above by a stained glass “sunset” designed arc. The doors enter into the foyer that is a garden accented by a fountain and soaring 30’atrium which allows sunlight to stream in for the numerous plantings including a 20’ palm tree. The first floor bath is to the right and features a step in shower fully custom tiled w/matching sink. This serves the “studio” bedroom located on the first floor as well as any house guests. The “studio” is accessed through double arched doors which can be closed for privacy and used as a third bedroom or left “open” in order to serve as a media room for the first floor. This is ideal or physically challenged persons or children. The room has built in closets and cable tv/w/dvd player.

  Most beautiful home with amazing roof top view!

  Left on 05/07/2013 for a stay in April 2013
  
  

  Words can not describe the wonderful experience we had in your beautiful home and enchanting San Miguel. We were awestruck from the moment we walked through the door. The casa was absolutely perfect, attention paid to every detail. The roof top view could not be topped by any hotel or restaurant that we visited while there and we visited many. Thank you all for sharing your home and town with us. We plan to make this an annual event. See you next april.

  Beautiful House

  Left on 01/08/2013 for a stay in January 2011
  
  

  We stayed here two years ago. The house is outstanding. Realtor met us on sight and explained everything.She was available anytime we needed her. House has two master bedrooms which was perfect for couples traveling together. It has a super rooftop garden with firepit. You can see out over the city. In a wonderful location. All the comforts of home including heated floors and fireplace in both bedrooms. Fountain in entry way with skylight to bathroom. Lovely place. There was direct phone line to United States. Only cons-on steep hill and master bedrooms upstairs may be problem for elderly. . Rent this one-you can't go wrong!!

  Lovely house and very well equiped

  Left on 01/03/2013 for a stay in December 2012
  
  

  We had a lovely stay, we rented the house for Christmas and our experience was above our expectations. We had more than we expected, mainly regarding the equipment of the house and decoration. Fireplaces in (almost) every room made it super comfortable, as well as the heating in the floor. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Overall the house makes you feel warm and cozy.
  The only complaint we have, is that we were 6 people (3 couples) and the third room available was super small and not nearly as comfortable as the other two. It had a really small bed, no fireplace; mainly a small space adapted with a bed.
  Hot water in the showers is a real problem. It takes ages to heat, never comes out warm enough, and it only supports two of the bathrooms. We could never get hot water in the third bathroom and also we could never take showers one after the other, we always had to wait for a while until we could have hot water again.
  
  Overall, great experience. Would totally recommend it for a family weekend, but only for 4 or 5 people at the most. Be ready to excercise on your way back to the house, the street is extremely steep!

  Charming, unique and spacious home for a one of a kind vacation!

  Left on 02/08/2012 for a stay in January 2012
  
  

  My husband and I loved every minute of our stay here! We enjoyed the influence of the surrounding area with every modern convenience you could want. We could walk to majority of places on our agenda and/or take a taxi with ease and very reasonable rates. The home was perfectly kept inside and out; every room was comfortable and charming. The only regret was that we couldn't stay longer!

  Wonderful Start to an Extended Holiday

  Left on 06/11/2011 for a stay in March 2011
  
  

  My wife and I recently spent 3 weeks at Puesta Del Sol at the start of our extended stay in San Miguel and found it hard to leave when it was time to move on. We were enchanted with the unparalleled views from the rooftop, enamored with the kitchen facilities (having reverse osmosis treated water is so convenient too), and simply delighted with the light and space of the home. And then there were the staff, Jorge the gardener and azucena the maid/cook-- they were so discreet yet personable and really catered to our personalities and needs as if we were long lost family friends. Sound too good to be true? It almost was. Of course, there is one other small "benefit" I should mention-- the hill leading up to the house provided mandatory exercise each day to help work off the calories of living the good life in SMa but you can cheat and simply catch a cab back home too). It's not often that a place delivers on everything it is represented to be, but this home certainly did, and provided us with a sensational start to our extended holiday.

  Beauiful experience

  Left on 01/25/2011 for a stay in April 2007
  
  

  From the front door to the rooftop this house is a delight. The beautiful mexican architecture is reflected everywhere, even in the ceilings. The double windows open to let in the cool night air which makes for a refreshing nights sleep. The modern conveniences completes the comfort zone for a delightful visit. From the garden for breakfast to the rooftop for evening drinks all was perfect. I wholeheartedly look forward to returning. Thanks
