Great place off the beaten tourist track but close enough to it to easily see get to the sites. Very large apartment with great views. The hosts, Anthony and Emily, were very responsive and well organized.The only downside was sometimes the surrounding area could get loud. Which might be difficult for light sleepers.Other than that, highly recommended.

This place was amazing! What a beautiful view and such a nice, well-apportioned apartment. My family and I had a great time there. Lots of great food and all of Centro easily walkable from there as well. We'll be recommending this place to everyone we know and hope to stay there again ourselves one day!

We stayed in the dream penthouse apartment for 4 days and it was amazing. Obviously the view is stunning and we spent every night we were there relaxing on the roof. Anthony was very communicative and responsive, not to mention he was flexible when it came to us arriving a few hours early. The stay was comfortable and very convenient for the areas of town we wanted to stay in. 10/10 recommend staying here and we will definitely be back in the future!

Great apartment up on a hillside with a sweeping view of Oaxaca city. The unit is comfortable, well appointed and has a top floor terrace, very nice for enjoying morning coffee and watching the sun rise over the city. Emily and her father, Anthony are wonderful hosts. Would definitely stay again.

Helpful organizing and nice location

We had a great time! Emilia was very helpful with setting up taxis and getting us in touch with someone who found my iPhone after I lost it. We had some unexpected repairs that had to be made on the sink and the door latch, but Anthony was very responsive.

The View!

Our family has a great stay in the penthouse. There was enough space for 2 teens and 2 adults and the view will last a lifetime. Host Anthony had someone check in with us daily to confirm that everything was going smoothly. We will return!

Another wonderful stay at the apartment

We had another wonderful month at the apartment. We have stayed now four times at both of Anthony's apartments and we enjoy them both. Comfy bedrooms, nicely apportioned kitchen and of course wonderful views of the mountains. It is a bit of a hike up from el centro, but well worth it. We are already planning our next winter trip!

Expansive place with amazing views!

Superb views of the Oaxacan sunset from both the living room and the roof-top palapa. Really nice kitchen and dining area - and the bedroom was perfect. Lots of room for spreading out and relaxing. Excellent wi-fi and Sam the local property manager was really helpful. Great location - just far enough away from the city center to feel like you're living as the locals live - but close enough to walk to the Zocalo in about 20 minutes or so. Would definitely stay again!

Check in was good--and we were allowed in earlier than the standard check-in time, which was great--and the kitchen had all we needed. We did have to wash some items before using them, but everything worked well. It is a beautiful and spacious apartment with an absolutely stupendous view from the terrace. Our hosts were informative and willing to answer our questions and, other than some lightbulb issues, which were in part addressed, we always got the help and information we needed. We would totally stay there again!

February in Oaxaca

We have stayed in this apartment twice, and have rented it again for February. Love the location which is more neighborhood than tourist with panoramic view over the city. It works beautifully for 3 couples with space to work, hangout, and gather together or in pairs. Great small family restaurants, plus Humito up the street. Had a brief issue with a water pump, and the owner was most helpful.

5 stars all around

Just a lovely property on every level. The house is even better than pictured, especially with the large roof terrace including a dining set covered by a veranda. The only thing better than the property was the white glove service Sam, the caretaker, provided. From arrival to departure Sam took care of every detail and made me feel like a valued guest.

Outstanding view, very nice apartment

The apartment itself is terrific, nicest place I've stayed in Latin America. Roomy rooms, clean functional bathrooms and kitchen. The open air windows provide loads of fresh air and follow the common situation in Latin America of plenty of noise. The roof-top view and gardens are a wonderful escape from the heat (90s in March this year but we hear this is unusual.) The biggest asset of the place is the taxi driver they recommend - Lionel Lopez and his fleet of punctual, dependable, highly skilled, and personable drivers.

Amazing time

The apartment is fantastic, spacious, clean, and amazing views! The rooftop was very special.Emily was very helpful and responsive, although we didn't need much while we were there because the apartment was so well set up. She helped set up a taxi to the airport for us the morning we left.Close proximity to everything in town, a nice 15-20 min walk to anything you'd want/need. If you have a tough time with hills it could be a bit difficult, but I really enjoyed the walk to and from the apartment.Overall an incredible stay and can't wait to come back!

Fabulous place to stay

We had 16 nights in this beautiful place. Magnificent views, amazing sunsets from the rooftop terazzo. Two wonderful bedrooms with bath...one with an extra room with twin bed. Third bedroom in back is very basic. But the space is large, comfortable beautiful. We had 5 and8 year old kids with us, they loved it too Kitchen is great thought we didn't cook much. Wonderful restaurant, Humito, nearby and some delicious pop up food too. Lots of tends for basics. 20 minute walk to zocalo downhill We had two families join us one at a time and everyone loved it!

Glad to be back on Panoramica!

We had another wonderful month at the apartment. We have stayed now at least four times at both of Anthony's apartments and we enjoy them both. It is a bit of a hike up from el centro, but well worth it. From our perspective, the apartment is the perfect distance from the tourist area -- a solid and safe and friendly working class Mexican neighborhood. Some renters might find the hike uphill a bit demanding, but we thought it was fine, and we are in our mid-70's. Great market at the bottom of the hill. Very comfortable and generous living spaces and bedrooms, nicely stocked kitchen, fine bathrooms. The third ancillary bedroom has been upgraded. The upstairs terrace is absolutely wonderful; we spent a lot of time in the outdoor space, both day and evenings. Wonderful views of the mountains. We are already reserved for our next winter trip! Thank you, Anthony!

Great to return for the third time to Panoramica!

Three years ago, we stayed a month in the downstairs unit and we spent a month in the upstairs unit for the second time! We really enjoyed both apartments! We are already booked for next year. We love it. Sam was very responsive to our needs.

Oaxaca trip

Overall a nice spot to stay at. honestly the only reason I would stay here again is for the view and attentiveness of Sam, the young man who hosts there. He was super responsive, very helpful, and available. We stayed there 7 days, honestly the steps we had to take to get to the apartment were deadly hahahah mostly because we had little ones to carry up a long with all the bags we had, so for a family with little ones I wouldn't recommend. There was plenty of space the rooms were pretty big however this apartment could really use a deep clean, we turned on the fan and could see dust going down and the light fixtures have layers of dust and spider webs. The other thing we saw a lot were huge red ants all over the house. The main bathroom has a shower head that shoots water towards the door and is unusable, I did tell Sam about this and he mentioned the plumber would go but never did, but fortunately the other 2 bathrooms worked just fine. We enjoyed our stay and our kiddos loved playing at the top while looking at the view.

I wish you had let ME know of the cleaning problem, I would have sent a cleaning crew over immediately. It is possible that your request for an 8AM check in threw the cleaning crew a little bit and the disinfecting that we do between every stay made getting to dusting the fan difficult. A shower head literally takes 1 minute to change. I'll ask what happened there. As you said, Sam is normally extremely responsive. I'm sorry you were surprised by the stairs. There is a photo of them on our VRBO ad. and a couple of reviews mention them. I wish you had let me know of the things that were bothering you so I could have taken care of them. Making my guests happy is my top priority.

It really is!

We absolutely loved this apartment. It is bright, spacious, and airy, and we never tired of the view. Your cheerful hosts, Anthony, his wife Sandra, and their lovely and charming daughter Emily (who is like having your personal concierge) couldn't have been better. They helped us with everything we needed during our stay, including arranging for a taxi for our 5:00 AM departure. The kitchen is very well supplied with everything you could want - even a multitude of covered containers for storing your cut fruit, leftovers, and anything else you have. The beds (all three) are very comfortable. The two main bedrooms are large and well-appointed, with plenty of storage for your things. The third is a few steps away from the door which leads up to the lovely roof terrace and covered outdoor patio, where you can sip a cold beer and enjoy the view. When you're in Oaxaca, you are definitely going to want to be venturing out! This city is alive with culture and celebration, especially on the weekends. The church of Santo Domingo de Guzman, and the Zocalo downtown, were both a 20-minute walk by different routes for my wife and I (both in our mid to late 70's); younger folks will make it in less time than that. One word of caution - this is a penthouse, and that means steps, lots of them. If steps are a problem for you, this is probably not the place you want. Otherwise, it can't be beat!

Panoramic View

First and foremost, the view was worth its weight in gold!! The house was big, lots of space. If you don’t mind walking it is a straight walk down to St. Domingo church ten minutes Downhill, the walk back will have an uphill grade. Make a right and your five minutes from Zócalo, and in between lots of nice restaurants, mezcal, and things to see. If you want to just enjoy your view or want something to eat very close just a walk about te houses down is the famous Artist Lila Downs restaurant Humitos and home. Great food breakfast and dinner, live music not loud! Incredible service, a must while you stay at the house. Sam was a great help with anything we needed and at any time day or night. Will definitely come by with bigger group of friends. If I had to say anything negative it would be that it does need just a little bit of tender loving care, not a show stopper by any means!,!,!

This is an amazing apartment, spacious with breathtaking, panoramic views (even better from the private rooftop patio and gazebo) in a really excellent location, only about 10 to 15 minute walk from the centro. The owner and property manager Sam are wonderful, communicative, helpful. The beds are excellent, the shower is excellent.

Lovely house, amazing view

I stayed in Casa de Emily with my wife, son, and parents for a month over the new year. What a great place for a family gathering! I can confirm the comments made by previous reviewers. It is a bit of a walk to the center of town, but it’s interesting, and easy to get a taxi back if needed. The house is spacious with lots of privacy between the rooms and comfortable common spaces. The rooftop deck is amazing. What a place to experience Oaxaca from! I will recommend Casa de Emily to my friends and enjoy the memories of the time we spent there.
