Perched above the central plaza, this homey 18th-century casona (mansion) has just three rooms. Each is decorated with touches that make you feel at home – a set of art books, a Persian rug, a flower-printed chair. There's an airy living room where guests gather, a well-tended pool, and a sweeping patio with a pond and enviable views of downtown Álamos.
Two of the rooms have kitchenettes; the third has a microwave and small refrigerator. Casa Serena is owned and operated by longtime expat Diane Carpenter – an affable host with loads of tips about the town and stories about her native Alaska.
