The house is excellent. Everything is as shown in the pictures. Very clean. The chef is amazing. Everything is delicious. The service is incredible. Very good for a weekend of rest.

this is a uniquely beautiful property, think large historic English country manor with well kept lawns, gardens and a wonderful pool. we went with a group of friends to celebrate a special birthday together and we had a wonderful weekend together. nobody wanted to leave

Host Response

Thank you for staying with us. We would be happy to welcome you again.

The property is beautiful, the views are unbeatable, and the house is very comfortable, as are the beds. The amenities are impeccable, and overall, I think it's a great place to visit at least once a year. It's ideal for visiting with friends and family. Child- and pet-friendly. We were all happy. We ordered from the house menu, and everything surprised us, especially the flavor and presentation of the dishes. Just as a small point, they should take better care of the portion sizes, as there was quite a bit of food left over; otherwise, everything was perfect. Thank you!!!

It fills us with joy to know that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for choosing us. We look forward to seeing you again!

One of the best Airbnbs I've ever stayed in. The property is stunning, and it's impeccably maintained—full of thoughtful details. The service we received was very good, and the kitchen was excellent. Highly recommended for families. It offers a different level of quality than most places, from the bedding to details like the giant teepee, the fire pit, and the opportunity to eat fresh food straight from the garden.

The house is very comfortable and has everything you need! Very clean, very good internet. Communication with everyone was very easy and fast and everyone was very friendly. We love that it was pet friendly and the pool was at a very good temperature! We would definitely return to this one or to another of the houses they have! I recommend it!

Excellent house for large groups and families. Spacious, comfortable, well maintained and just as described. Common areas and pool are very much enjoyed. Clear communication and timely attention from the host. Very good value for money. We would definitely come back.

The house is very nice, beautiful gardens, the bathrooms could be improved. A very good stay, good staff

Host Response

We really appreciate your comment. We're excited to hear that you enjoyed your stay. It will be a pleasure to welcome you again.

The beds are very comfortable! The pool is huge and the green area is giant! The decor and the house itself is great! Hector, Maribel and Fabiola's service was very good and the seasoning in the kitchen is excellent! If I could give them something to improve, it's the service time, that is, it takes several minutes to come back after finishing a drink, for example. We will definitely stay again!!!

We had a wonderful stay. It’s set in stunning countryside and the photos do not do justice to the setting. Coming from the UK having Mexican food prepared fresh for you every day was a real treat. We paid to heat the pool which was extra but well worth it. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Thank you for your message and for staying with us. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit; we will be waiting for you here whenever you want to return.

Not sure what more to say other than book this place and you will not regret it! The staff is wonderful and very accommodating (ask Hector for the lime pie), the solar heating of the pool was enough in August for us to swim every day, and although you are a 30 minute walk from town being in the middle of nature is so serene and peaceful.

Host Response

We truly appreciate your kind words. We are glad you enjoyed your visit and we will be happy to host you again in the future.

I stayed here with my whole family, including two young children, and everyone had a great time. The property is absolutely stunning!!! We spent most of our time enjoying the outdoors - gardens, pool, paddle ball court, and the grounds in general. The staff was very amenable, and the food was delicious. We went into town one afternoon, and they helped us arrange for a Taxi since it is a bit far to walk, but they made it very easy. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and plan to come back next summer :)

Casa Los Angeles is absolutely stunning! Pictures do no do it justice. The gardens are movie worthy the surroundings breath taking. We visited mid July and the weather was cool in the mornings and warm mid day, perfect mountain climate. The home it self is a wonderful country home, warm, cozy full of books and art, stunning views out of every window. Linens are great quality and pristine. Last but not least the service is wonderful, Oscar runs a tight ship, Hector, Fabiola, and their team of 3 more people are masters in the kitchen and make breakfast lunch and dinner that is restaurant worthy and serve the table impeccably. And took great care of us. If you are considering a holiday in the country side, look no further, this is it. We traveled with our 3 boys 22, 20 and 16 who very much enjoyed toe paddle court, pool and pool table. We played in the immaculate lawn and went on long walks within the property. Bravo to the owner and his passion for gardens. It’s beyond! Thank you

We stayed at this incredible property in Malinalco with three families—all with elementary school-aged kids—and it was an absolute dream. The grounds are positively gorgeous—lush, expansive, and meticulously cared for. It felt like our own private resort. The indoor/outdoor spaces are what truly set this home apart. We had long, leisurely meals at the beautiful outdoor dining table that easily accommodated our whole group. The kids loved having their own TV room for movie nights, while the adults relaxed in the living room just steps away—still close enough to keep an ear out, but with space to unwind. The pool area was a huge hit too. Every interaction with Damian and house staff was warm, kind, and above all—super responsive. This home was the perfect base for our multi-family adventure,

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Los Ángeles. Up a dirt road and tucked into the mountainside, it is an absolute oasis of beauty and calm. The house itself is spacious and stunning, with plenty of art and books to inspire, and great for gathering groups of friends. (We were a group of three families.) The grounds felt sprawling and also safe, meaning our kids could run for hours without us worrying. We loved spending time by the pool, which was warm and has a very wide shallow end — also great for children. It was so luxurious to have help with cooking and cleaning. The meals that Hector and Fabiola produced were perfect, and they were so nice to accommodate requests from some of the young picky eaters in our group. They were responsive to all of our questions during our stay (how to navigate trips into town, hiring massage therapists, stringing up a piñata), which made is feel right at home in Malinalco. I would 1000% stay here again!

I and a group of 20 women rented this house along with 2 other houses on Damien's compound - it was extraordinary. Staff were super skillful, kind and helpful. Staff and Damien were very communicative. Food was great. They really spoil you here. This is one of my all time favorite places to go for a relaxing vacation or retreat (this is my third visit and it only gets better).

I have visited this place several times; it is beautiful. We always come back because the garden they have is huge, and walking through it is an incredible experience. However, this is the first time I have been denied access by the people who rented the main house. The garden is so large that it is difficult to be close to the other people; on previous occasions, we never saw the people who rented the other houses. It was truly disappointing, but we respect it. (The people who rented the main house were careless with their pets, as they let them into El Limoncito many times.) As always, Oscar was very attentive, and Salomé was a great cook with an excellent attitude and service. The house lacks some maintenance and needs pest control inside the rooms.

Everything is super clean and is a great location

This is truly a magical place and my family loved every minute of it. We absolutely regret not staying longer. The house is stately, furnished with lovely furniture, beautiful rugs, and artwork. The grounds are impeccable and luscious and fun to explore. It’s the kind of place where you can easily hang out together as a large group, or peel off and find your own space (there’s plenty) to read a book with a glass of wine. The pool is amazing.

I would not recommend this place or come back. The place was extremely dirty and full of animals, ants and spiders. The property was not well fenced or tightly closed. All the time I would enter and leave people without notifying which was very uncomfortable and not private. Next door is an empty land to which one person was going and had full access and view of the house, which was very uncomfortable. I explicitly asked if the property was fenced and I was told that yes, which was totally false. The bedrooms did not have air conditioning or fans or screens to be able to open the windows and it circulates the air. The temperature in it was too uncomfortable. The garden and pool are beautiful but the rest I think the pictures are misleading. I don't think it's worth what we pay at all. I wouldn't recommend staying

Excellent stay, the photos don't do the place justice, it exceeded my expectations. Excellent support from Oscar, Lucy, Nan and Tere, I will definitely be back

Amazing! Had an incredible trip. Everything was perfect - the accommodations/ grounds/ staff/ food- literally everything was perfect. Everyone was so friendly and nice and took care of everything. It's one of those reviews you almost don't want to write cause you don't want people to find out about it!! We had basically all of our meals there and it could not have been easier - Lucy is an excellent cook, and can accomodate any requests. I think if I had to pick the chicken and the mushrooms was my favorite, though everything was delicious. We were so comfortable it was like being at home- the pool was gorgeous as you can see from the photos. The setting/ grounds/ gardens/ atmosphere were breathtaking. We went to relax and relax we did. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable, restful and we already thinking/planning when we are going back!!

The service is excellent and the house is very good. It has everything you need

This place is amazing! The pool, the house, the pádel court, the property. We loved it all. The food was really good (be sure to plan your menu with them early so they can buy everything early and have it ready). I’d ask for doña Lucy’s trout and the chocolate cake. We went for my birthday and she made a special cake. Queta helped attend to our every need and made the stay very pleasant for us. She was kind and loving to our dogs (who had the time of their life on this land). I’d love to go back but it’s definitely a splurge. The last bedroom listed here is more of a tv room with one long couch, so be sure to consider that when figuring out how many people can sleep there.

The host, Rafael, is very rude. The people who provide the service in the house make you feel like they are doing you a favor. They never make you feel at home. Only Lety is friendly. The house is beautiful. It's a shame that the service of the people who work there is so poor. This is the first time I don't want to go back to the place. What a shame.

Host Response

I am sorry you were not happy with experience and will seek to do better. As readers can see, We’ve had over 185 almost entirely positive reviews, 95% 5 stars, so this is a ( huge) outlier. Meanwhile I note ( having read belatedly, my fault) in a recent Airbnb review (Puuc, June 2021) of your stay, your behavior was characterized very negatively ( “rude”), etc. . While each stay needs to be evaluated on its own, I believe the massive volume of positive data in our favor and your checkered Airbnb history is more likely indicative of the truth than this review. Also Limoncito does not include service in the rental ( we recommend service at your cost and at your risk - as the other 100s of reviews attest, service is normally considered a very strong point), so a bit mystified how service affected overall quality to this extent, considering your other comments on house and garden were in fact positive. Again, we will seek to do better.

Malinalco's Los Angeles house is undoubtedly one of the best we've rented. Los Jardines, the house, Alberca and the services of the Staff (Lucy, Queta, Ana and Oscar) make the experience an incredible, family trip. We'll definitely return…

Great property, great service and an unbeatable location. We already want to come back!

A beautiful place to relax, enjoy nature and rest in a property with an excellent design. It is equipped with everything you need and the staff who assist and attend is excellent! The pool is a wonderful size and a delicious temperature. The rooms are very comfortable and cozy, as well as beautiful. We only recommend our host to mention that the last stretch is winding and not very suitable for low cars, better come in a van. Oh! If you're a dog lover, you could make a new friend!

An incredible place, remarkable property with amazing location, greatly designed gardens, and an exceptional service. Perfect for family gatherings, restful time away, and entertaining.

This is a first rate property offering close proximity to the town of Malinalco with its impressive pre-colonial and colonial history, plus a good variety of restaurant options. However, in addition Limoncito offers respite from streets and groups of tourists. Instead, guests take advantage of exuberant gardens complete with organic horticulture options for one’s table, walks on mountain roads, sleeping in well appointed bungalows with all the creature comforts and the opportunity to relax by the pool - perhaps taking advantage of a thoughtful selection of books to let your mind wander and rejuvenate. Staff is excellent.

The house is simply wonderful, better than the photos and ideal for disconnecting (however the good internet). We did not go in winter so the pool is kept at a more than acceptable temperature. The amenities are even more than expected, Oscar's attention is unbeatable.
