San Miguel de Allende sets the scene for a unique vacation for those seeking a truly authentic travel experience. This charming colonial-style town has a magical, almost fairytale-like feel, with quaint cobblestone streets that gently weave their way through the 68-block historic center of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Known as the heart of México, San Miguel de Allende personifies the good vibe and welcoming friendliness that makes México one of the world’s favorite travel destinations.

The living room in this luxury retreat has a double-height ceiling, filling the floor plan with natural light. The house’s rooftop swimming pool has a glass bottom which serves as a skylight, casting a subtle teal hue throughout the home. This unique effect is due to the small, polished glass beads that possess an individual brilliance. Casa Karina’s hi hi artwork makes use of thick wood as a canvas. All the pieces are by Lola Picó - a local artist originally from Lleida, Spain.

The ground floor hosts one of the spacious bedroom suites, which opens up to the main living room area. This bedroom is furnished with a king-sized bed and has a fireplace. The en-suite bathroom features a double vanity with sinks upscaled from coffee mortars, quartzite counters, and tan riverstone flooring. The room is complete with a bathtub and shower.

The chef’s kitchen perfectly blends contemporary functionality with attractive vintage-chic finishes. The open kitchen features a complete range of Viking appliances, including a professional oven, a dishwasher, and a French-door refrigerator. The counters are finished in raw quartzite while the basin sink is made from a large river stone. The ground floor also includes a bar area, which is stocked with mezcal and wine for guests’ enjoyment.

The second bedroom in Casa Karina is located on the upper level and also features a king-sized bed and a fireplace. This bedroom also has a cozy reading nook/window seat which captures sight of the Parroquia.
