allways nice to stay there... Marcia is perfect !

We had an amazing time in the little town of Santa Maria (near Cuernavaca). The loft, garden and swimming pool are fantastic. Marcia is a great host, and respected our privacy at any moment. We'll be back!

Marcia is a very kind, charming and interesting woman. Her property is well kept and very secure, the loft is set back behind the main house and is very private. Nice backyard with beautiful landscaping and pool.

The host made us feel so welcome, it was a pleasure to stay in the back loft! Marcia is so generous, and brought us rosca and fresh tortillas, as well as restocking coffee, water, etc. We felt very well provided for. The listing is accurate. The loft is as adorable as the photos suggest. It was a generous amount of space for two people, and even though you need to go through the house to get to the loft (as other reviewers mentioned) it feels totally private. We also made use of the pool! A little cold, but very refreshing on a sunny day, and it's good incentive to really work up a swim. The neighboring area is also great. Good food, quiet and tranquil mostly residential area, across from a church, and with a fruteria, tortilleria, etc. just down the street. It's also worth exploring a little further out in Cuernavaca too. My boyfriend and I went on some nice long walks. We highly recommend staying at Marcia's!

We had an excellent weekend at Marcia's place. The loft is spacious and provides a nice view on the garden. Marcia provided us with some fruits, coffee and basic stuff for the kitchen. What we did not know was that one has to pass her main building before entering to the garden. She provided us with a key and we could just leave and go as we liked. The neighbourhood is very relaxing, no distractions. You should get your Quesadilla on the weekend around the church, there is also a little Tienda around the corner. The place is a bit outside of Cuerna, up the hills. This makes up for a perfect climate - not as humid as downtown. Ride to downtown cost MXN 50. We would definitely come back - worth a weekend trip from DF. Saludos, Max

Marcia was wonderful! She welcomed me despite a late-night arrival, offered to speak in English or Spanish, and spent some time explaining the house. She was always available for any needs or questions I had. The neighborhood was quaint and felt like a real taste of Central Mexico - nothing touristy, though the bus into town (~20 minutes) was just a block away, and ran frequently. Access to fresh produce was just around the corner, and everything else I needed I could find at the tienda down the road.

Marcia was great and made us feel at home. We didn't realise that she lives in the main house but you wouldn't know she was even there. The garden is beautiful and is very peaceful, a great weekend getaway.
