Casitas Los santos is located in the Zirahuén village -right next to the lake of the same name-, at walking distance to the center of town, where you may visit the beautiful 1600's adobe architecture, visit the docks, stores and dine at the various restaurants.

Zirahuén is a village of farmers and fishermenwho have a passion for music.  The local bands, women choir and "rondallas", are famous.  Among the most traditional celebrations are Easter, the Day of the Dead, the Day of Saint Cecilia (the patron saint of the musicians), Corpus, and the first week of May when the village celebrates their Patron Saint.

The lake and village are surrounded by dense pine and oak forests that make for some spectacular views.
