• The view from this terrace is probably one of the most popular features of this villa. Cuernavaca's city center is in full view as well as the mountains to the north. Best of all, the sun rise from amongst the two volcanoes (Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl) is truly a breathtaking site. A great place for a lovely view of the city centre. It’s ideal to breathe, relax and see the stars on a clear night.

Children allowed only when carefully supervised. Cleaning service provided twice a week with each rental.
