Description of the Granada vacation home rental

Casa Gallo is an old colonial home in Granada, Nicaragua, 4 blocks from the Central Park, in a quiet area of large colonial homes. This 5,330 square foot house was restored and modernized in 2004 to serve as a delightful vacation rental home. It has been judged one of the top three vacation rental homes in Granada!

There are three bedrooms (one 20' x 20' by 15' high), a tv/ library, and living room (sala)with all rooms fronting on the large interior courtyard. A small pool, gazebo and fountain are in the central garden area. A wrought iron table and 4 chairs dominate the center of the gazebo. There are two distinct seating areas in the interior couryard in addition to the dining area, kitchen bar, and gazebo seating. The home has been furnished colonial style, with antiques and replicas. There is a separate employee room and bath. To the rear of the home are stairs to a 2nd level balcony or mirador with roof, with seating facing Mombacho Volcano. This old colonial home also has a garage. All bedrooms have bathrooms with hot water showers and split compressor air conditioners with individual remote control, as well as ceiling fans. (There are 19 ceiling fans in Casa Gallo) Two bedrooms have queen beds and cable tv, the third has twin beds. There is a laundry room with washer & dryer. Our housekeeper will wash clothes and iron upon request. A conventional phone is installed and may be used with a phone deposit. Two cellular phones are made available for guests' use. We just ask that you pay for the time cards you use. Our staff will help you with this. A high speed internet connection is installed.

An additional walled garden area (El Jardin Secreto/the Secret Garden) of 2,300 square feet with fruit trees, banana plants, bougainvillea and lawn is entered through a door at the rear of the mirador into a large covered patio. Total Casa Gallo area is 8,600 square feet including the gardens. The gardener/guard José, and the housekeeper Miurel, work 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. M-F or till work is done. José works Saturday morning, Miurel Sunday morning. José will stay overnight when guests to our Granada rental home want to have an overnight at the beach or elsewhere, such as the Selva Negra Coffee plantation.

Casa Gallo has an automatic standby water system of 750 liters and two battery-inverter standby electrical systems to provide essential 110 volt power for much of the house.
