“Staying here feels like lodging within a living museum, steeped in the history of Edward James's surrealist vision. The family's warm hospitality extends to tours of both the property itself and the nearby sculpture gardens, giving a personal glimpse into Xilitla's artistic heart. The secret bar, accessible through a tunnel, adds a touch of nocturnal magic.”
