“Loved Posada El Ensueno - Charming B&B Inn in Antigua, Guatemala”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2007
2
people found this review helpful

We just returned from an amazing 5 days in Antigua, Guatemala. Part of what made our stay so incredible was Posada El Ensueno. Not only is this luxury 3-suite B&B inn a beautiful oasis in and of itself, but the owner (Carmen) made every effort to have our stay be more than just memorable, but extraordinary. She and her staff went above and beyond to cater to our every need, from arranging for transport (Carmen picked us up at GUA and arranged for private transport to take us on some of our excursions) to helping us find specific things we wanted to buy to telling us stories about Antigua from local politics to the weather. On top of a lovely breakfast each morning, one night Carmen made us an elegant and romantic dinner (we paid extra for that request) ... and with her 30+ years in the restaurant/hospitality industry, the dinner was amazing. We stayed in the "Terrace Suite" ... with views of the volcanoes and a lot of privacy, this suite had a good balance between lovely touches (chocolates on the pillows each night, traditional art decorations) with modern conveniences (the Posada was built fairly recently, although it goes right with the incredibly architecture and colors of Antigua) ... including a refrigerator, TV, spacious bathroom, bedroom and living space. The only "drawback" (and I say that mildly) is that the Posada is located 10 blocks from the center of town. We found the 15 minute walk lovely ... along cobble stone streets and finding wonderful nooks of ruins and courtyards along the way ... and a cab back in the evenings is less than $3. We loved the quiet and tucked away feeling of the place, but if you are looking to be right in the hustle and bustle of it all, the relaxing and lovely Posada El Ensueno may not be for you. For us, it was exactly what we wanted!
