Award-winning Casa El Nido in Santa Lucia | House in Centro
1 Bedroom House in Centro
Alight at Casa El Nido, nestled in the vibrant heart of Santa Lucia, and take refuge in the award-winning design of the renowned Taller Estilo Arquitectura. The unrivaled location is within walking distance to most destinations in Centro. You’ll be within three blocks of the Paseo de Montejo, as well as Santa Ana and Santa Lucia parks, and only five blocks from the Main square and the new La Plancha Park. You’ll find restaurants, cafes, galleries, shops, and more, just steps away.
With curated spaces and meticulous attention to detail, you’ll enjoy a perfect blend of form and function in a well equipped kitchen, stylish yet comfortable furnishings, luxurious bedding, and extraordinary artwork that is a thoughtful mix of delicate craft and playful color. Casa El Nido is cozy, yet spacious – with numerous intimate spaces throughout.
El Nido means nest – an intricate construction of interwoven twigs, leaves, and feathers that creates a cozy or snug place in which to rest. And just as birds make their nests, Casa El Nido was built as a retreat of great simplicity, yet of great spatial richness, by using a minimal and simple palette of materials.
You are welcomed into the house through the traditional sala with Its old essence preserved in original doors, clay floor tiles, stuccoed and painted walls and ceilings (leaving an exposed vestige of the stone masonry walls and metal beams). From the sala you enter an open space courtyard where the old and new are seamlessly intertwined. This transitional space holds a stone courtyard with gardens, small pool and open air dining area. The kitchen beyond opens to the outdoor area through a wall of folding glass doors.
The new construction houses the double-height dining room, the kitchen, half bath, and the first bedroom with en suite bathroom and an interior garden on the ground floor; a study and another bedroom with a full bathroom on the upper floor; and finally the roof terrace with an area for rest and a view of the city. The logic of the design was to position the public areas in the front part of the house and the private ones at the rear in order to create a peaceful sanctuary.
And at Casa El Nido, it`s not just the location and design that call; it`s the promise of a seamless sojourn. We will greet you at the house to ensure everything is perfect upon your arrival. A dedicated concierge service is ready to attend to your needs and facilitate an unforgettable stay.
You will enjoy access to the entire house, including laundry facilities that are located on the rooftop deck.
