Our spacious & delightful cottage sits in the middle of a beautiful garden, minutes away from the city center & it's located in a quiet historic district. Our check in is seamless & our space is green.

The space
This house celebrates & embraces the wonderful diversity of this great country. We welcome with arms stretched wide, our brothers & sisters of all races, creeds & sexual orientation. Together we will not build walls but a magnificent future for our children & future generations.
Right in the middle of the city, a quiet and glorious tropical cottage. The 500 square feet large studio has a sitting area for leisure moments in addition to a queen bed, a comfortable kitchen with breakfast table (We include a fresh breakfast) & a great irresistible romantic area for al fresco dining. The cottage is surrounded by a shaded garden with birds & butterflies & a large mango tree where you can grill & relax in a private setting. Public transportation is close by-metro rail, buses & trolley-You can also bicycle to Downtown, Health District, Brickell, Wynwood & even the Grove. Rental bicycles can be found at the Marlins stadium half a block from us. Sewell park is close by and provides a beautiful experience of the Miami River.

Guest access
The cottage is located behind the main house & you are always welcome to request additional towels, bed linens or the occasional cup of sugar :). During Irma we lost the branches of our big mango tree which gave us so much joy and beautiful fruit during many years, but it came back & it gives us plenty of shade during those summer Miami months. We have a cold shower out in the garden, which provides a refreshing break when hanging out in the yard. We have comfortable tables & chairs and lights that turn on automatically at dusk both for the trail, the large dining table & the backyard. Furthermore, we do hope you take some time to enjoy the cricket and frog sounds which are so much part of this tropical landscape.

Other things to note
We offer the option of an air mattress and or a crib upon a request by our guests.

Born in the 50s
Where I went to school: Marymount School/ UNIANDES
I love nature, beautiful things, kindness, intelligence, generosity, a sense of humor creativity and honor. I was born and raised in Bogota, Colombia, I attended a very progressive school during the sixties, had a short stint as a host for a children's TV program and then I went to law school. While in university I discovered that the world was huge! filled with ideas, interesting people, fantastic possibilities. I went to the mountains north of Colombia with my boyfriend to a totally primitive and breathtakingly beautiful place. We lived there for over a year in a commune that formed itself in a very organic way. This was one of the best times ever. We had nothing and needed nothing else. Friendships forged during that time have been a constant in all of our lives and to this day not only are we close but our children as well. Alas! The practice of law was not my cup of tea and I pursued different and wonderful areas of development ( I still do ) with mixed results but with really amazing travels and experiences. Today I find myself living in the US and loving being a host for airbnb. I did not imagine I would like it so much but I certainly do. Our home in Miami is beautiful and our cottages in Colombia as well. I believe in paying forward and in the strength of kindness and compassion. I enjoy sharing my love for Latin and world music, exciting art, really good writing and good conversation. My experience as a host has been tremendously rewarding. Meeting so many new people in particular so many young people is great. Listening to their stories, expectations, and hopes is wonderful. As a host, I encourage you to ask questions from us particularly if there is any feature you consider important in your decision- making process. We answer immediately so that you have all the elements in hand to make a sound and accurate decision based on facts. Our aim is to make sure our guests are comfortable, feel safe, perceive value and are happy with their choice.
