Alta Gracia Newz


January 11, 2010

Welcome to Alta Gracia's Best Kept Secret!

   279 Bed+Breakfast is entering into its 4rth season as Alta Gracia's first "Boutique"  Bed+Breakfast.
   Combining a blend of shabby chic simplicity and a touch of modern design, most clients feel quite comfortable and appreciate the over all atmosphere created here at 279 Bed+Breakfast.  After working in New York City as a photographer and PropStylist for more than 20 years, my experience and eye for detail, came in handy while decorating 279.
     279 has two rooms, each with its own bathroom and a very comfortable Queen size mattress.   Both rooms open to the patio and have a view of  several very colorful Bougainvillea trees that I have diligently  trained against the wall for the past 3 years.        
        The antique iron garden chairs and tables in the patio are a comfortable place to kick back and relax  with a book, a glass of wine or one of my specialty mojitos!
         279 is located within walking distance of Alta Gracias' historical district which includes The Jesuit Estancia, a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE and of course, the idyllic Tajamar Lake also built by the Jesuits which  is located parallel to the Estancia.
     Other attractions include The Che Guevara Museum and The Manuel de Falla Museum which are definitely worth visiting and also within walking distance from 279.  
      Alta Gracia's outdoor activities ; horseback riding, tennis, hiking, biking, and golf are also added attractions for the outdoorsy type, especially biking, my personal favorite. In about 45 minutes by bike (depending on your athletic ability) there are rivers with pools of water to be explored in surrounding towns. This type of  biking adventure to the river is what originally attracted me  to Alta Gracia.
 It's a great location for a picnic and a day of swimming surrounded by nature!

All this, and much , much more...
