Never changes
I last stayed at Eugenia home 9 years ago, and its like it was yesterday's. Her caretaker Rigo and housekeeper Juanita were still as helpful and enjoyable as 9 years ago, and the home spotless and so comfortable and well decorated. A jacuzzi has been added for more enjoyment. Eugenia pays attention to the little things, like furnishing toilet paper,towels, washing machine, a perfect vacation home, furnished like your home. Always a joy to stay in this home, close to everything but away from the noise ,so peaceful at night. Thanks Eugenia for a amazing stay

Our new home in Antigua Guatemala
Wonderful house. We felt at home. Pictures and description are accurate, but you get more once you arrive and look at the details. Comfortable beds, all very clean. Rigo is the name of the person who helped us at our arrival. He is always attentive and ready to assist with any questions. Communication with the property manager was easy all the time. Everything works great. A very quite neighborhood. We will definitely come back as many times as possible.

Antigua vacation
The house was amazing and the host was very helpful. The house was spacious and was well taken care of. The only complaint I have was the house was hard to find and Uber app doesn't like the location always place your pickup a block away. La casa de Los Abuelos was a fantastic stay for me and my family. We would definitely be back when we come back to Antigua.

Amazing stay!
What a great choice to stay at this property! It is located a little bit out of town and difficult to locate at first but easily walkable to the center of town (10 minutes). All beds were comfortable and Rigo and Juanita were very responsive but not intrusive at all. Some construction noise starting 7am during the week, but not an issue for us. Very very clean, good kitchen facilities, though no stock items at all (not even salt/pepper). This was fine as we eat out every meal in nearby outdoor cafes and restaurants. City of Antigua has so much to explore, and we felt very safe. Also, Uber was always an option if we wanted to go a bit further or didn’t want to walk back. Definitely would stay here again!!

Beautiful house in quiet but convenient neighbourhood
Our family spent a wonderful Easter Week in the property. Antigua is rammed and very noisy with the processions but this house is away from the noise but easily accessible via a $2-3 Uber or 10 minute walk. The house is beautifully furnished and very well equipped- a real home from home. The cleaner Juanita is adorable and very proficient. The terrace views of Volcano Agua are also amazing. We loved it and would 100% recommend and come back. It has no pool but access to that can be purchased daily at The Porta Antigua (very close by) or Soleil Hotels for the days when your kids want to splash about. Loved it.

Best house of all our one month stays
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.

Beautiful home!
The house is truly stunning and well maintained. We love the property. Juana the cleaning lady was lovely too. We felt like it was home straight away.
It’s a great place to entertain from and have friends over as there’s plenty of space to relax.
The only little niggle was the building work going on from early on the mornings made it noisy but apart from that it was a lovely stay.

Perfect secluded home
We had a hard time finding the house with our driver from Guatemala City
The front of the house shows a garden but actually the garden is behind a huge double door. our driver was amazing and took us right to the door as he spoke much better Spanish than we did . And There we were! In a very secluded neighborhood . Opened the front door and the house was amazing! Beautiful furniture with lovely textile and accents from the area.
We had an lovely bedroom on the 2nd floor with a deck where we could sit and watch volcano Agua. The walk to town was about 15 minutes but we had fresh orange juice and lots of friends we made on the way. I cannot praise this house more ..Wonderful! Only thing I would ha e liked was a garden lounger to sit outside and dream and watch the stars. Efrian the caretaker was helpful and always available...will go back to this house anytime
Eugenia who arranged and was my main contact during the booking process was also amazing. I had no anxiety...I knew I was going to a marvelous place and it more than met my expectations thanks to all of you dear people .Isabella

Wonderful Stay
The casa is beautiful and well maintained. My wife is an artist, and will only hang original pieces of art in our home, the owners of this casa felt the same. The instant we stepped through the front door we imediately felt at home.Our arrival was a bit scary at first. We came at night, the driver could not find the casa, it is isolated and the only home on the street ( although they are buiding two more ).When we pulled up my wife gave me this frightened look, as to where the hell have you taken us.In the mean time I was also thinking of a plan "B", then we opened the front door and an imediate sense of calm overcame us.The only negative we could give this home, which is also a positive is the location. It is isolated at the end of a dead end street, that doesn't really exist for taxi or Tut Tut drivers until you actually direct them there( by flagging them down off a main road) We liked it, others may not. It is also a good 20 minute brisk walk to the parque central. They have started to build two other homes on the street, one directly across from this casa. The Guatemalans are hard workers and everthing they do they try to do by hand. The sound of construction isn't that loud, but it goes 7 am, til 7 pm, 7 days a week. I enjoyed watching the process and the workers were kind and friendly. If the sound of home construction bothers you, you may want to wait a few years before you rent in this area. If you have limited walking abilities,this place is not for you. We brought an 81 year old family member and it was a struggle to get him out until we established a relationship with a taxi driver. For the abled bodied there is no issue. This home for us was 5 stars, we liked the isolation, and our daughters enjoyed the thought of the country feel,even though you were still in the city

Very agreable, perfectly maintained and well decorated property
This very agreable colonial house is located on the southern edge of Antigua, yet within easy walking distance from the central square. It exremely well decorated without too much ostentation and has all the necessary modern appliances and equipment. Tha master bedroom on the 2nd floor is very spacious.The upper terrace offers a spectacular view of the Agua Volcano and is a peaceful place to rest and read. Rigo the caretaker is very nice and helpful (eg how to work the BBQ or bringing wood for the chimney when evening are cool). Rosa the house help who comes 3 times a week to clean the house and to the washing is a very nice and soft spoken lady. Last but not least, Eugenia Pinto, the owner, is very accomodatind and quick to answer any queries.

House of your dreams
I won't repeat what has already been written, it is all true of how peaceful and quiet the area is ,what an incredible house ,
My 10 day stay were nights so quiet ,you wondered if you were only 5 minutes away from downtown Antigua ,
the days you were awakened by the birds .
Eugenia's help made my stay tough to leave , of the many kind acts ,two stand out , I was leaving at 4:00 AM, in the morning ,so the maid "Juana" was cleaning , she was waiting on my laundry to be finished, when I told her , just to go on home, because it was getting late ,I could take them from the dryer .
So 30 minutes pass, and I go to get them ,and there she is folding them for me , she said I would be leaving so early , she did not want me to forget them .
Same with Rigo, the guardian , I open my door ,at around 3:45 AM in the morning ,and he has already gone out to open both gates , to allow the taxi to come the front door. I had told him the night before ,I could do this ,these may sound like small gestures , but they were both done out of kindness, such is the nature of the Guatemalan people , what a amazing country and house to return home to after ,seeing the city and countryside.
And a plus is Rigo's adorable dog, greeting you with playfulness.
Mil gracias Eugenia ,for sharing your home , my girlfriend ,who is Guatemalan,and her family enjoyed their stay at fantasy Island, (their words )
So if you want your version of a dream home and vacation , book this house and live your dreams
One note of observation ,if you put screens on the kitchen window ,and one of the patio doors ,the breeze would be welcomed in the afternoons, without the flying bugs invading the house , just a suggestion.
