About this apartment rental

Our luxurious penthouse is in an elevator secured building in the heart of Centro Historico! Enjoy all the comforts of home and more in our finely appointed apartment. One master suite has views and terrace access, with a modern bathroom plus a jacuzzi tub for 2 in a rock walled alcove. The other master suite has a charming colonial decor and a master bathroom with dual sinks and rain shower. Both master suites feature king sized beds of the highest quality and comfort available, featuring a full 4 inches of memory foam pillowtop on a supportive orthopedic core. They also include private bathrooms with showers, bathrobes, bowl sinks and granite, plus 32' LED TVs. The third bedroom has a rustic theme with two comfortable twin beds, views and terrace access. All beds feature a choice between 500 thread count cotton linens, as well as fluffy down alternative comforters with duvets and blankets. All three bedrooms and the living room feature vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams. The social bathroom has a glass block shower, toilet, and even a urinal. The gourmet kitchen features gorgeous granite, a dishwasher, 6 burner stove and oven, microwave and large fridge with filtered water and ice in the door. The Living room has a soft comfortable sectional and a 42' LG plasma TV with a huge DVD library and Direct TV HD with a Blu Ray player. All rooms have DVD players. The entire apartment includes a terrace with unobstructed 5th floor views over centro, including a granite breakfast bar overlooking the impressive icon of Cuenca, the new cathedral.

Our home is cleaned to a strict standard between each set of visitors, and cleaned and stocked according to a checklist, so that you can rest assured that you'll have a wonderful stay free of the common pitfalls of stays in a foreign country. The kitchen is equipped with all of the dinnerware, cookware, silverware and barware you will need, plus small and large appliances. We provide paper towels, sugar, salt, pepper, coffee and tea. The towels are plush and plentiful and we provide thick toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, liquid soap and blow dryers in each of the three bathrooms. We provide 3 huge flat-screen televisions, one smaller flat-screen TV, all with DVD or Blu Ray players and two with Direct TV HD a huge video library and high-speed wireless internet. The building has an elevator straight to our door that only services 3 apartments, so you won't have to climb any stairs like in most centro homes, or even wait for a busy elevator like in a high rise. The building is very secure with a friendly guard from morning to night. When the guard isn't there, you are behind 3 locked metal doors. The apartment is quiet as it is 5 stories up, with dual-paned laminated glass throughout and no walls are shared with any neighbors. There are just 2 other residences, and the rest of the building is occupied by offices, mostly law offices. If you have a rental car, there is a parking lot next door. If you have more than 6 people, there is an extra double mattress to sleep two more, and a dining room table for 8. For your comfort, all rooms have black-out curtains, there are portable heaters, an electric fireplace, a double electric blanket, and extra pillows and blankets, and unlimited hot water. There is a full-sized washer with hot water and gas dryer for your use. We use only hypo-allergenic fragrance-free detergents.

Perfect location all that to historic downtown Cuenca has to offer. Penthouse was very comfortable and well equipped. We loved coffee on the balcony in the mornings overlooking the city and mountains. I would definitely book this place again on my next trip. The Host was very easy to communicate with and accommodating
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2024
The host was very responsive in the weeks and days leading up to our 8-day visit as we had some uncertainty around the timing and schedule of national power outages and the looming possibility of water shortages due to severe drought conditions during our planned visit in the fall of 2024. While the building does not have a generator or water tank reservoir, the location in Centro made it largely immune to the revolving 6-13 hour blackouts suffered elsewhere in the city and country. The apartment is exactly as advertised. The accommodation is spacious, with plenty of outlets and mood lighting, very well appointed furnishings were excellent with a large balcony looking out on the city. The kitchen has every appliance needed for long-term stays including ice maker fridge, microwave, dishwasher and a good quality drip coffee maker with plenty of grocery options in a 5-minute walking radius. The washrooms were clean and well-designed. The host was very responsive to our questions or requests (ex. getting a second set of keys). The building elevator is 'rustic' and space and weight limited (2 people, not to exceed 600lbs) but didn't fail to get us up to the fourth floor during our stay (though we preferred to walk down just in case). The building was clean and other residents/tenants very pleasant. Being in Centro means accepting busy streets late into the evening and early in the morning. This is a small price to pay for being in the heart of the city. Highly recommend.

Great decor, very upscale condo in the perfect location close to everything. Dustin and his wife welcomed us when we arrived. Everything was so luxurious yet so cozy to come back to each night. Next time we come to Ecuador we will stay here longer than the 4 wonderful days he had in Cuenca! The best memories of the trip were here at this beautiful place spent overlooking the historic district of Cuenca on the balcony. Thanks for everything. We were so pleased with our stay here.
