The apartment is very bright, full of windows, and well organized. It is located in a very trendy neighborhood near tons of restaurants and cafes. The internet, the bed and bathrooms are really A.Guille was easy to communicate with and very welcoming. Our very small issues were solved quickly. This apartment is a very good choice in Palermo.

Perfection in Palermo
We loved the apartment from the minute we walked in. After walking through all the major neighborhoods and parks in Buenos Aires, we were even more convinced we’d made the perfect choice selecting this VRBO. It’s located in the heart of the action in Palermo and walking distance to parks, museums, and other attractions. A Hop on Hop off bus stop is just a few clocks away, which we chose to take advantage of as a way get a sense of the city and what areas we wanted to focus on. Buenos Aries is a busy city and it was wonderful to start our day calmly and return from full days out to relax on the patio or in the living room. With street trees that fronted the living room patio, it felt like we were in a green oasis. The bedroom view was unobstructed by other buildings and looked out to the row of trees on the next street over. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking, although, with no less than 10 cafes within about a two block radius and excellent restaurants down the block, we didn’t do much cooking. Our only regret was that we hadn’t planned to stay longer than 11 days! Both Tomas and Guille were excellent communicators, responding to any queries immediately. And Guille was so helpful with recommendations. I can’t recommend the place more highly!

Nice and relaxing
My partner and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in Palermo. The apartment was clean, comfortable with great access to most of what you need. The large balcony was great, and so was the small balcony off of the bedroom. There is a Western union and market less than a 5-minute walk away. The bed was very comfortable with a large soaking tub, however the spa/jets on the tub do not work. Guille was such a nice person. Communication with Guille and Thom was great and check in was smooth. I am very pleased we chose this condo, and we would definitely choose it again.

Outstanding!!!
We stayed 30 days in this beautiful apartment, with lots of natural light, and located in an area full of restaurants, cafes, stores, a gym and laundry service close by, and walking distance from the beautiful parks of Palermo. The apartment was clean, extremely comfortable, and had everything we needed for a month-long stay. The balcony was so relaxing! Tomas, the owner and Guille, the manager were both super friendly, responsive and extremely helpful. We would not hesitate to stay here again!

Exceptional Property In Palermo
We had an incredible stay in this beautiful and comfortable penthouse. I can’t say enough about the exceptional hospitality and service by Guille, the apartment manager, she went above and beyond. The apartment is so comfortable and in the best location, within a block to cafes, restaurants, bars, grocery store and shops. The apartment itself has everything we needed, including the most comfortable bed in the master we have ever slept on while on vacation. Our grown daughter slept on the futon/couch in the living room, which she said was also very comfortable. Guille set up a screen, which gave her privacy and her own space. The large terrace was a great place for coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. The WiFi worked great, as I had some work I had to do. Thank you for a fabulous stay in this perfect apartment. We can’t wait to return.

An Oasis in Palermo Soho!
Truly enjoyed our fabulous week-long stay at "The Penthouse". Tomas and Beatriz were consummate hosts and everything was "as advertised/pictured" with their gorgeous home. The main deck was huge...and all other rooms, facilities, equipment etc. were everything we could have asked for...and more. We really appreciated having access to a few extra supplies, utensils and other sundry items. Made our stay that much easier. Last but not least, the neighbourhood is terrific with any/all services readily available. Don't hesitate....book now!

We stayed 4 nights in this very comfortable and charming and quiet condo. It’s in a great area of BA. Lots of fabulous restaurants and cafes. Grocery store around the block. We would have loved to stay a month…so sad to say goodbye to this lovely apartment and to our great hosts. We would definitely go back.

Great location and apartment
Tom's apartment is exceptional. It is exactly as shown in the pictures. We found the Palermo neighborhood very safe and welcoming. The manager Guille organized our transportation from the airport and was there to meet us at the apartment. She was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area. The apartment is very comfortable. The air conditioning works well, the kitchen is well provisioned, the internet is fast and the bed is very comfortable. What we particularly liked was the Palermo neighborhood. There is a wealth of great restaurants all within a couple of blocks, a couple of really good jazz clubs and all the facilities you need like a grocery store, wine store and laundry. Thanks Tom. We had a wonderful month. Stay at your apartment and hope to do it again soon.

Fantastic!
We have just returned from a 3-week stay at this apartment, which we used as a base to explore BA, Mendoza, and Uruguay. We absolutely loved our stay! Three key reasons: First, the neighborhood: The location in Palermo Soho was terrific, with dozens of restaurants within 3 blocks, a nearby gym, grocery and laundry service, and easy and inexpensive Ubers for access all over BA. Second, the penthouse itself: Its 7th floor location made it a quiet, peaceful refuge from the lively Palermo area. We especially loved its windows, light, and balconies. While not new, it was very clean, well maintained and had a very comfortable new bed and sofas. Wifi was excellent! We did not do much cooking since restaurants were so plentiful and good but the kitchen was well equipped. We even loved the master bath with its great view, shower, etc. Third, the communication: Thom the owner was very easy to work with for booking and Guille, the BA manager was outstanding for onsite followthrough. She was prompt, detailed and helpful in emailing and texting with us before and during our stay. She assisted with airport transfers, restaurant and sightseeing ideas as well as money and laundry questions. We sincerely appreciated her quick responses, enthusiasm and kindness. This apartment deserves its consistently high ratings and we are delighted that we able to spend so much time in the refreshing winter air of Argentina and beautiful Buenos Aires. Thank you, Thom and Guille!

AMAZING rental in the perfect neighborhood
We just returned from a week long stay in BA and had the pleasure to stay at Thom's place. I can't say enough good things about the entire experience. This is a beautiful 7th floor penthouse apartment, right in the middle of the vibrant Palermo neighborhood with balconies (and beautiful plants and sitting areas!) on front and back to enjoy the view of the city. A spacious, comfortable and quiet retreat after enjoying the huge diversity of shops, restaurants, nightlife, cafes, markets - all in the immediate blocks surrounding the apartment. Thom was such a gracious host, always getting back to me promptly around any questions I had and making sure we had a little "welcome basket" of Argentine goodies on our arrival - such a nice touch! And Guille, the local host Thom works with, was an absolute GEM. This was our first time to Argentina and we were a bit nervous as we don't speak any Spanish. But Guille helped us with anything/everything we needed - answering questions, sharing recommendations and local tips for how to get the most out of our stay, arranging airport transfers (lovely and reliable drivers!), getting us tickets for local events, and making sure we understood any necessary safety considerations (by the way, we NEVER felt unsafe, just need to use standard precautions as is the case in any large city travel). With Thom and Guille's help, we had an amazing week taking in the sights of BA. Thanks for taking such good care of us!

Triple A!! Amazing condo, neighborhood and city!
The condo is superb, well appointed, very functional, with a good amount of space The terraces provided terrific outdoor space. The front one is nestled in the plane trees making you feel like you’re in your own treehouse! The neighborhood has everything you need. Great restaurants abound, lots of shopping, grocery stores and a great vibe. The property manager was amazing navigating us through the blue dollar situation and providing great recommendations for restaurants and sites to visit. I would highly recommend this property as your home base for your stay in Buenos Aires!

Amazing location
This apartment is amazing. It is located close to restaurants, shops, subways, buses and is close to everywhere else in the city. It has a beautiful terrace balcony that is high enough that you can’t hear the bustle of the street below and is surrounded by trees. The bedroom balcony faces Palermo’s low buildings and treetops. It has natural light all day!!! The property manager Guillermina is helpful and diligent. I wish we didn’t have to leave so soon!!! It felt like home away from home! Definitely will try to be back soon!

Perfect location
While the apartment itself is confortable and well appointed, the location is the reason it should be rented. It is extremely well situated and we walked everywhere or took a short taxi rides to other neighborhoods. The other reason is the property manager, Guille. She was an angel for us and helped make our one-week stay memorable in so many ways. If you like live jazz make sure to try the Backroom next street over (and try their thai shrimps!).

Superb location plus quiet, spacious apartment on top floor
We have stayed in many different apartments over the years and the "Valentino Penthouse" in Palermo gets the highest marks on all counts. The full length windows and balcony were surrounded by trees that gave the feeling of being "above it all." We felt very safe in this neighborhood. The restaurant selection was good and breakfast every morning at the French boulangerie "Cocu" became a ritual. The apartment was very well lit and the Queen bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped and laid out very efficiently. The television and high speed internet allowed us to watch movies and sports using a VPN connection. And, finally, the interaction between us and "Guille" the local Manager and Thom the owner gave us assurances that any issue would be resolved quickly. Guille is a font of knowledge about Buenos Aires and she made some great suggestions for music. Together they run a very tight ship.

Gem in the perfect location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Penthouse. It is on a quiet street, yet it is in the heart of many trendy shops, bars and restaurants. We always felt safe walking around exploring the city. We just kept our wallet and cell phone in our front pockets. You will find that the owner, Thom is very easy to communicate with. Guille is the local manager. She acted as our concierge/tour coordinator. She met us at the apartment and was so welcoming and friendly and she speaks fluent English.She provided us with many helpful ideas. She was very responsive throughout our stay and is even arranging our transportation between airports when we return from Rio De Janeiro! The apartment has terraces on the front and back that have amazing views but are also private and big enough to eat on, sunbathe, or just enjoy the nice weather and the plants.There are walls of windows in the front and back of the condo which allow you to have nice breezes through the apartment. The air conditioning works well if you need it. There are some supplies in the modern kitchen. There is english TV. We really can't recommend the apartment highly enough. We've stayed at many VRBOs over the years and this rates as one of the best experiences.You will love all the the wonderful things this city has to offer!

About the host

Hosted by Thomas Downey

Host profile image
I am a real estate investment advisor living in southern california. This Penthouse is my second home. My manager and I take great pride and enjoyment in providing our guest's with value, fun and transparent dealings with us for their stay at our Penthouse.

Why they chose this property

Valentino's is my second home. I love Latin American people and culture. I also love the excitement of big city life, so Buenos Aires combined these two passions for me.

What makes this property unique

It's all about the location in Buenos Aires and this is THE best nexis in Palermo Soho. This is my favorite part of Buenos Aires and Valentino's is in the heart of it. There are lots of great areas of BA, however it is easy to just stay in Palermo Soho. I also love the Sycamore tree-lined street of Thames and it's proximity to the subway.
