Villa el Cerrito is ideally located in San Miguel de Allende, a colonial gem with a population of roughly 140,000. Steeped in history and rich in culture, San Miguel is situated on a hillside facing the Laja River and distant Guanajuato mountains, and is a picturesque town of arched colonial mansions, flower-filled patios, and winding, terraced cobblestone streets. It is also Mexico’s most celebrated artists’ community, and has been luring artistically-inclined Mexicans and foreigners for many decades.

The authentic adobe villa was built entirely by hand over a period of five years. Considered the signature work of one of San Miguel’s most prominent local architects, Villa el Cerrito masterfully combines an ancient building style with the modern conveniences and amenities expected by today’s most discriminating travelers. The interior of Villa el Cerrito was designed by the owners and one of the town’s most distinguished interior decorators, and every room received the utmost attention to create an elegant, comforting, luxurious, and authentically Mexican environment.

The heated infinity pool allows you to literally swim among the tree tops while overlooking dramatic gardens, ponds, and fountains, while the spa offers a place for tranquil relaxation and rejuvenation. The adjacent outdoor loggia includes a comfortable seating and sunbathing area, a sound system, and a bar with refrigerator. The pool is solar heated.

The magic of Villa el Cerrito is brought to life by an extremely professional, friendly, and able staff trained to make your stay as pleasurable and fulfilling as it can possibly be. Villa el Cerrito employs a full staff, a veladore (security/night watchman), one cocinero (chef/cook), two criadas (maids), and a jardinero (gardener).

Other amenities include satellite television, high-speed internet access, CD and DVD players, state-of-the-art sound system, in-room safe deposit boxes, indoor garage, daily housekeeping and laundry service, and purified drinking water.
