The Space:
La Palapa is a hillside retreat made for families and groups who want to share the days and keep their own space at night. Four independent apartments sit around a swimming pool that looks out over a green valley framed by mountains.

Each apartment has its own bedroom and private bathroom:
- Apartment 1: 1 double bed and a lounge sofa
- Apartment 2: 1 queen bed with balcony access
- Apartment 3: 1 king bed under a wood-beam ceiling, with a ceiling fan
- Apartment 4: 2 double beds and air conditioning

The heart of the property is the covered palapa, with long dining tables and a TV, steps from the pool. The outdoor kitchen [CONFIRM: one or two] is equipped with refrigerator, freezer, stove, microwave, dishwasher, blender, coffee maker, toaster and cookware [CONFIRM: kitchenette inside each apartment]. A BBQ grill is available for a fee.

In total, La Palapa sleeps up to 10 guests across 4 bedrooms and 5 beds, with free on-site parking for everyone.

Guest Access:
You'll have full access to the entire vacation home, as well as the property's shared amenities and common areas.
Check-in is handled in person by our on-site host, and free parking is available on the premises

The Neighborhood:
Alto Lucero is a quiet, green corner of the Veracruz highlands north of Xalapa, where days move at their own pace and the pool becomes the natural gathering spot. It suits multi-family trips and groups looking for rest, fresh air and open views rather than nightlife.

Nearby points of interest:
- Xalapa historic center [CONFIRM minutes]
- Naolinco, a Pueblo Magico known for leather crafts [CONFIRM minutes]
- [CONFIRM: third nearby attraction and minutes]

Where to eat:
- El Mirador, panoramic valley views and enchiladas altenas (5 min drive)
- Casa Aguilar, breakfast to dinner with fresh bread and local coffee (5 min drive)
- Enchiladas Dona Chela, wood-fired home cooking and local longaniza (5 min drive)
- Restaurante Dona Josefina in Naolinco, known for its mole [CONFIRM minutes]

Getting Around:
The closest airport is Aeropuerto Nacional de Xalapa (El Lencero), an estimated 45-60 minute drive via the Xalapa-Alto Lucero highway; Veracruz's General Heriberto Jara International Airport is a second option, roughly 1.5-2 hours south. A car is the most practical way to get around this rural stretch of the coast — Chachalacas, the area's known beach and sand-dune destination, is a further drive, though we recommend confirming exact travel time locally. Rideshare and taxi coverage here can be more limited than in larger cities.
