About US
The Cabrera-Arroyo family moved into this house 31 years ago where Rene, a lawyer, and Emilia, a nurse, were rearing their six children. In 1988 the family started renting one room to American students. That is how Aurora, the oldest daughter, met Don, a Texas born software engineer, who was learning Spanish and traveling in Mexico. They were married in 1990. Two years later Rene became ill with leukemia and died shortly after. Emilia, alone now, decided to turn her home into a guest house. Everybody would work at the house while they were attending school. Almost all of her children had a turn running Casa de las Bugambilias. Meanwhile Aurora and Don while living in DeLand, Florida had established Luna Azul Gallery, which featured Latin American art and crafts and which provided Aurora an opportunity to utilize her own artistic skills—watercolor painting and decorative furniture painting-- while featuring the work of other artists and craftsmen. In 2003 , the Dawson-Cabrera family decided to go back to Mexico with their two boys, Nathan 9 and Isaac 2, and Oaxaca, being a mecca for artists, seemed the perfect place for them. Don works with a new startup company in Florida, while Aurora manages Casa de las Bugambilias. Under her guidance Las Bugambilias is taking on a fresh new face. The Dawson-Cabreras’ interest in art and culture as well as their commitment to earth consciousness shows in every detail at the B & B.
