At the Golden Bee and Forecer Casitas, we focus on exhibiting contemporary and traditional art. Since we are artists you will see some of our pieces on the walls as well as works we have pick up along our travels. We love to meet and support artists as we travel. We have a collection of prints, paintings, ceramics, and more. Come visit and enjoy a wide range of materials, mediums and genres, ever evolving and always changing.

These beautiful carvings were designed by Sara•Tink & Theo along with master carvers from outside of Pátzcuaro MX. We had a great time working together. Come down and enjoy the textures.

This was such a fun project.  Sara•Tink made the bees out of Plasticine and plywood.  After taking molds of them we brought them down in our suit cases. Customs was bewildered.

A unique, comfortable and warm space to experience the heart of Mexico. Our stay at Golden Bee was so special! The garden and extra design touches make the space a very peaceful and warm home away from home. The sunset views are spectacular and the location is ideal. We especially loved making breakfast every morning in the spacious gourmet kitchen. The best part of our stay at the Golden Bee were the tremendously warm and helpful hosts.                            Olivia, Florida USA

非常喜欢这个大院子,里面的植物都非常漂亮,尤其是那棵仙人柱。下午阳光会照进餐厅,使房间更美了。每一处地方都能看出Sara的心思。三楼的天台可以欣赏夜景。门口有一辆公交车可以去市中心,对面有一个小店可以买到水果和鸡蛋。一切都很完美!        
I really like this big yard, the plants inside are very beautiful, especially the fairy column. The afternoon sun will shine into the kitchen and dining room to make the room more beautiful. Every place can see Sara's mind. The roof on the third floor you can enjoy the night view. There is a bus to the city center at the door, and there is a small shop opposite to buy fruit and eggs. Everything is perfect!                                                                                                                        LUI, Shanghai China

Florecer Casita Special: $67 a night, Guanajuato Mexico

1/8/2019

Comments

 

Available Jan 11th-Jan 25th 2019- one week minimum


​The Girasol apartment is closest to the entry and has a sitting area with a lovely view of the main garden and lemon trees.  This apartment is roomy and comfortable and has mostly contemporary Mexican artwork on display.  A king or two twins beds are available, depending on your preference. Florecer Casitias is located on a hillside above the city, ten minutes walking to the city center, restaurants, museums, Spanish schools, and more.  There is regular bus transportation into town and back and easy taxi accessibility as well.

        Contact Liz Mapelli to make your reservation now!

At the risk of waxing on and on about the many delightful days we stayed at Florecer Casitas, I would simply like to say that from the moment the big pink doors swung open and our travel weary bodies stepped into a garden courtyard, I knew we were home away from home.  Liz Mapelli must be a seasoned traveler, how else would she know what the senses desire.  Six casitas, each one charming, each one private, each one beautifully, artistically and immaculately appointed and  equipped.  And if there is anything you need, Liz will appear with a brilliant smile and flashing blue eyes to assist you.  As the day wanes, whirl up a Margarita and make your way up to the rooftop to watch the sun set over Guanajuato.  Call it a day, sink into a luxurious bed, dream sweet dreams, and then do it all over again tomorrow.
