About this property
Beautiful Country Home
Las Cascadas has just been thru a face lift and we are back!. This is a rural house built of adobe, large wood beams, 10 and 12 ft. ceilings, thatch roof in some areas and decorative wood slat ceilings in most. It is a house surrounded by vegetation, a place to sit back, meditate and comune with nature. It is South Pacific style with open LV, DN and kitchen that give out to the garden and pool. The garden is full of flowers, the creek runs at the bottom of the garden and we have a waterfall as well. One mile from the center of Malinalco - close enough to hike but far enough from the noise. Every bedroom has spectacular views of the mountains. There are large patios all around. The kids will enjoy playing in the garden and the little ones in the baby side of the pool. Built on three levels the house sits against the side of a hill. The garden level has the LV, DN, full kitchen - with OPEN concept to the pool, patios and garden. The laundry room is on this level as well,. The mid level is the main entry to the house. There are two large bedrooms on this level each with kingsize beds, private baths and terraces. The top level has 3 bedrooms each with its private bath: #3- with kingsize bed or two singles; a separate sitting/playroom room that could sleep two more would share the bathroom. #4- with queen bed, and #5- "The Kid's Room"" with three beds (bunk).
There is a separate palapa by the creek to take a snooze on the hammock or exercise on the walker and in the evening sit upstairs and have a drink and enjoy the breeze.
There is secure parking. behind the gates for 3 cars comfortably but you could fit in possibly another 2 more.
There is a small separate casita on the property, for when the owner comes to visit but it is often closed and not for rent. We have a landline and WiFI and we are adding a link so you can use your computer anywhere on the property. Cel reception is not that great but we do get calls from all over the world on the high part of the property. The empty lot next door belongs to us and kids like to scramble around there and the garden has a lower level for those that need to get away from everybody else every once in a while.
The community of Jalmolonga is just down the road and you can walk over and buy fresh vegetables, drinks etc.

Incredible place, beautiful home, and Elodia, a wonderful hostess.
I absolutely recommend Las Cascadas. Our hostess had everything ready for our group. The rooms are all different and furnished with good taste. Two of the rooms have terraces and the master suite is very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and Elodia even had for us citronella oil lamps (against mosquitoes). One thing I found excellent is that there is enough room for a crowd. The weather was beautiful and the gardens are well kept. If you want to refresh yourself, you have the pool. The house was so pleasant that we really did not go out a lot. I totally recommend you try this place.

Una casa con potencial pero con falta de mantenimiento.
La casa tiene una vista que deja sin aliento, el área de la alberca es bonita, pero hay una clara falta de mantenimiento, la mesa del jardín rota, el horno de microondas de modelo muy viejo y hace un ruido tremendo que no da confianza de calentar nada, la lavavajillas no desagua hasta horas después. Es una casa que en "concepto abierto" no específica que la recámara principal solo esta separada de una terraza completamente abierta por unas cortinas y en la terraza nos pusieron 2 camas individuales, en lo personal, no me gusta estar tan en contacto con la naturaleza, el hecho de estar dormida y que pueda meterse cualquier insecto o murciélago no me hace sentir cómoda además que de en la noche la temperatura baja considerablemente y obvio es helada,por lo que esas habitaciones, nadie las uso. Hay dos habitaciones mas, que si bien tienen ventanas, no están selladas, ya que hay un espacio entre el marco de la ventana y la.palapa y vuelvo a lo mismo, al estar rodeada de tanta vegetación la.presencia de insectos es inevitable, mi familia y yo terminamos durmiendo en la única habitación sellada, mis dos hijos y yo en la cama y mi marido en un sillón que se ve y se siente que sus mejores años ya se quedaron atrás. En el baño de nuestro dormitorio el agua caliente solo duraba 5 minutos, no hay televisión, no hay señal de celular, hay wifi pero solo agarra si uno esta a no más de 3 metros del router, no tiene a/c, calefacción ni ventiladores. La señora a cargo fue muy amable y en la.medida de sus posibilidades solucionò lo que estaba a su alcance. Quiero mencionar, que mis hijos fueron los más felices explorando los jardines y eso para mi fue un muy buen punto. Es una casa que solo puedo recomendar a quienes quieran desconectarse del mundo y estar en contacto con la naturaleza.

Estimada Sra. Nuria. Primero que nada pedirle disculpas pues no me gusta que estuviera tan a mal gusto usted en mi casa y agradecerle que haya tenido la gentileza de si hacer relucir algun punto bueno de la propiedad. Yo acabo de llegar a Malinalco y tambien quede un poco sorprendida por ver que cosas que yo creia que la empleomania sabia que tenia que hacer obviamente no habian comprendido cuando intento entrenarlos. Por otra parte me disculpo por quizas no haber dado una buena descripcion de la propiedad aunque si le informo que en la pagina de VRBO explica que es una casa abierta, sin AC o calefaccion etc. Yo vengo de otras partes donde la comunidad con la naturaleza es lo mas importante. Me doy cuenta ahora que en Mexico es al revez. Estamos en proceso de hacer algunos cambios - no todos los que usted desearia pero algunos para hacerlo mas al gusto mexicano aunque siempre rustico. Lo que he aprendido de esta experiencia es que los Mexicanos requieren diferentes amenidades de las que yo estoy acostumbrada y por lo tanto no supe facilitarlas. y que las personas que nos dan servicio aqui requieren mucho mas entrenamiento y vigilancia . Hemos suprimido la casa del mercado de renta y despues de los cambios/arreglos se va a poner a la venta. Sus comentarios han sido de gran ayuda. Muchas gracias. Elodia Hernandez
About the host
Hosted by Elodia Hernandez
I am a retired stockbroker from NYC. I designed and built the house to enjoy nature and the outdoors. I live in a separate house on the property when I am in Malinalco. I have four dogs and two cats - all friendly but segregated from our guests.
Why they chose this property
Malinalco is now a Pueblo Magico and it is fun to visit the town center with its market and all the lovely shops. We also have churches dating back to the 16th century, archeological sites, good restaurants. Its only 1-1/2 hours outside of Mexico City and can be your center for trips to Cuernavaca, Taxco, the ruins of Xoxicalco and many more
What makes this property unique
Having a creek at the bottom of the property and being surrounded by all kinds of trees is particularly restful,. The weather in this part of the country is usually breezy and the adobe keeps it cool. Cold enough in winter to wear a jacket and hot enough in summer to wear shorts
