Hello Tangerineys from Queretaro. Today we're showing you what just might be
the coolest apartment here in the city! And you know what they say "location, location, location!"
And this one has got it! On our channel we showed you some really luxury homes
and some super cheap options. But we've gotten a lot of comments lately
saying "Hey I pay 1500 or 3000 a month in the US, what can i get for something like that?"
So today we're going to show you a couple options in the 1,200 dollars to two thousand range
From the second floor balcony here you can get a little bit better view of what the apartment
looks like, how there's all these different angles up here. This is the top floor up here,
this is the main floor, and then from here we can see the balcony of the bottom floor. Well,
just part of the balcony. And then out here you have the lake. So we're starting here at the front
door and you have that room, this room, and stairs. This is a nice bedroom with its own bathroom with
a shower. Then you've got a closet set up and then it's got its own little sort of patio area.
These are the stair steps that we took to get to the front door over there. In this next room though
this i think could be a very multi-purpose room. I can see it being a bedroom because
you have over here another shower and bathroom area. But then if you look at it, it's very
spacious, and the shape of it could probably allow it to be like a game room, a den, you know a tv room,
And i don't know, a lot of other things. And look at this setup some big beautiful windows that look
out to all the trees and everything. You can see the golf course over there which i'll show you
more of in a minute. Then you come right our here and you have this awesome patio! Check this out!
A rather large patio! You can run some laps! Jordan always wanting to run laps in any rental that we look at. [Laughs]
Bye! This is a really spacious area where you could put table and chairs and just soak in all
of this nature, and greenery, and all the trees around here. I believe this is going to be some
storage right here and this is totally a wrap around balcony patio area which actually sort
of leads to the first room that i showed you which is right here, that's its little patio. It does not
feel like you're in Querétaro here! It's like you're in another world! Compared to the queretaro that
most people know, which is the historic center. Which is very stone streets and concrete walls
and brick and everything. This, it's like a nice peaceful place. I would love to sit out here and
like read a book, drink my coffee in the morning, just relax, maybe set up a hammock. And then also
connected here is a laundry room so you got a washer and dryer and then a little sink and a place to
hang your clothes. And a secret tunnel. Going back here i think there's a secret tunnel or something.
Oh yeah, what's back there? What is it? This is the #$% dungeon. I mean this is the dungeon.
The dungeon!! [Laughter]
Where you keep your guests that don't behave. Exactly! So now let's head upstairs
Believe it or not this is actually a three level apartment, so this is now going to be
the mid level. And we have a beautiful kitchen set up here! I love this to where if you would want
to entertain and cooking or whatever, you could be serving people their food or their drinks. And you
get to look out and see this amazing view! But this is a great kitchen it's so spacious, so much room,
And, I don't know, these look like really nice appliances. Mabe, mabe not. (making a joke about the brand name)
I'm just kidding, they are nice appliances but the brand is "mabe" or
"mabe", i actually don't know how to pronounce that. But sink, microwave, big refrigerator and freezer!
That's so nice compared to ours, 1/3. of the size of this. [Laughs] Okay, moving on. So
attached to... I think this would be like your main floor, living room perhaps, is a bathroom over here.
From all these windows you have amazing views! Out this way is the golf course, out that way
is the lake. And then this, I'm not sure what you'd do with this. But sit up here. [Laughs] I don't know. [Laughs] Maybe
this is where you would put a tv or something? Or decorations? We could put Laska in "time out up high." [Laughs]
There's a bathroom there but that's not very important compared to what's out here.
Who needs to go to the bathroom when you could just look outside?! [Laughs]
Not only do you have a super large patio, you can also see sweeping views of this golf course over
here! And it is such a beautiful day, like puffy clouds of the sky, the blue sky. You can see all
these houses here. And then if we go on this side you also have views of this lake over here!
It is amazing. And you have these glass... You have the glass here so if you have some chairs set up
your view isn't obstructed. Yeah, it doesn't distract any of the view. And you could really set up so much
out here like one of those standing hammocks maybe. Is that like a... You know, a floor hammock? You could
set up one of those, tables and chairs, a barbecue maybe. But this freaking view is incredible! I
could just stare out here all day long. The crazy thing too is that we feel so high because to get
to this apartment you do have to walk up a hill, and then take some stairs, and now we're on the
second level. So we feel high probably because we are high. I would guess that we're at least... (Jordan) Have you been smoking?
[Laughs] I was like "What? No!" [Laughs] I'd say we're at least five stories up, maybe even six stories up, because you
can also see these other apartments and those are two levels themselves. But we are elevated because
well actually i don't know why, but we are. Now that we've seen this level let's move it on up!
Up another flight of stairs.
Coming up to the top level, this might be what you would call the master bedroom.
You have a huge mirror for you that's really well lit. You have some closet
space but don't worry that's not all the closet space there's way more! And then here
you have this great rainfall shower and then you can open the door, or open this with a
view out of the lake and a nice breeze coming in there if you want it. I'm like... when you
have mirrors in a shower, what do you need to do in the shower that you need a mirror for? Wash your face
I mean yeah but i've always washed my face without a mirror and it's fine.
Jordan's drank the kool-aid. [Laughs] Attached to this room you first see a little balcóncito. [Laughs]
Oh and you can see some of your neighbors over here. Oh you can spy on your neighbors! [Laughter]
Check out all this closet space, like endless closet space. No shortage. If you have lots of
clothes, no worries. The entire room is lined with windows, so you get to see everything! Everything
around here once again. An even more spectacular view of this golf course, and you can even see
more of the houses far over yonder in Juriquilla and then on this side, floor-to-ceiling windows to look out
at the lake. Wow, wow, wow! Is there anything else I can say but "Oh my gosh, Wow!" (singing) Wowww!!! How about the ceilings? Oh!
I hadn't even looked up that much because i was so distracted by these views. But yeah you've got
these wooden beam ceilings. It's kind of got like a cabin-esque feel with that. And then the
fact that it's kind of like a rounded shape. Who knew that you could find a lake cabin in Queretaro? [Laughter]
This is such the case with Mexico, though. You never know what's behind all the doors. And this
is always the case, you're like "Oh this looks like a very modest place" I'm not saying this
place looks modest from the outside but often you'll look "Oh that's a you know little door
here." And then you go back and it goes back, and back, and back, and back. Like you've fallen down
alice in wonderland's rabbit hole. [Laughs] (Jordan) And you can't get up! (Maddie) What?
[Laughs] So, in total, if you count each one of those rooms as bedrooms it would be a three bedroom
four bath. So you have an extra bathroom laying around just in case. And the price...
This one is 36,000 a month, and it includes all services, and the monthly maintenance fee. So that's
water, gas, and electricity. But if you're thinking "Wow, that apartment was awesome, but it's out of
my budget." We have another one to show you. But before we go to that next apartment, we kind of
wanted to talk about the whole community that this is located in because that i think is one of the
biggest selling points. It's gated and there's security. We were told there's about a hundred
homes or apartments located in this little area. Yeah, and it's on like somewhat of a peninsula
because yeah kind of surrounded by this lake out here. This, I think it's a man-made lake. Yeah, I think there's a
dam over there. So it's like a dammed lake. Damn!! [Laughter] And as we were driving in we saw some restaurants
just literally steps away from the apartments. And you know what else! It is noticeably cooler here
than around centro, or really anywhere else that i've been in Queretaro. I think because
of all the trees and the plants and everything. And the lake. And the lake, like the evaporative
cooler effect. I think one of my favorite things about renting here would be that you get access
to this awesome walking path that goes all around the peninsula here. And it's private within this
gated community just for anyone who lives here or guests. If you're coming to Mexico, one problem
you're going to encounter is that you're going to go on netflix and be looking for your favorite
show or movie, and all of a sudden you'll realize that it's not there. Or probably not there because
Netflix has different licenses for different countries. And the Netflix libraries vary greatly
from country to country. One way around this is to get a VPN. A VPN allows you to virtually change
your location. For example, I can locate myself in the US, and boom, all of a sudden i have access to
US Netflix again. Well our favorite VPN not only gets you access to US Netflix, but 30 Netflix
libraries around the world, so you have an enormous variety of content that you'll never run out of
things to watch. If you'd like to check out our favorite VPN, you can go to TangerineVPN.com, that's
our affiliate link and it will take you right to their website. Again, that's TangerineVPN.com. And
how awesome is? This they also have this like little park out here so you can have like a
picnic. Have a little party. We just found out that that other one actually includes internet too.
And the second one we're showing you it includes everything, and it's furnished, and it includes a
cleaning every single week. So let's go inside. Okay, so we've just come in the front door here and you
get to see the entire living room. It's also open to the kitchen which i'll show you in a second.
One of my favorite features of any house, of any apartment, is when it has a balcony! And in this
case you have a balcony that looks out to lake! I mean you're practically hanging over top of this
lake. I mean it's not nearly as big of a balcony as we saw on the other place, but you can still have
a couple chairs out here. i'm feeling the breeze out here with the view of the lake. This is amazing!
I love this! And it's a 180 degree view of this lake because it's curved. And across the lake you can see some,
I don't even know, apartments, mansions, one of these has a train! A freaking train car in it!
It might even be a house? Or a museum? I don't know. But this is gorgeous. This is so beautiful and
then your whole living room, nice and spacious. I. mean it's a a medium sized apartment. It's not
huge. But it's not small. Two bed, two bath. 2 bed, 2 bath! This is a turn-key apartment. It's like ready to move
in, right now. You got like bowls, glasses, plates, spatulas, flat top stove, microwave, fridge, and oven.
Basically everything you need in a kitchen. Yeah, everything you need in a kitchen, and
more. It has a freaking dishwasher![Laughter] Not only is this rare because you just don't have that appliance (in Mexico).
But, in this case, all of all the utilities: gas, water, electric, internet, maintenance,
everything is included. So that makes it even bigger of a perk for this place in addition to
something else that's super rare, air conditioning. In our apartment hunting in queretaro, that was
very high on our list of things that we really really wanted to have because i feel like there's
nothing more uncomfortable than just like sitting in your own sweat and not being able to cool off.
And we dealt with that for way too long in the Riviera Maya, where even after you take
a shower and you feel all good, you get sweaty again and it's just gross. So
it's really nice to have this. Although i do think in Queretaro, the weather is so nice that it's not
really necessary. But whenever you do need to use it it's kind of cool that utilities are included.
I think that's about it in the kitchen department. Come on into this first bedroom! This one's set up
to be like kind of a kid's room or maybe a guest room so you've got two single beds and a window
over here that looks out to like hallways. Sort of where other neighbors would be. Then you come
through here and it's like a walk-in walk-through closet situation. You have a really well-lit mirror
in here so if Maddie will come in front of the mirror you'll see that she looks really good!
Awe, thanks! Even though i just got the world's worst haircut and i'm trying to hide it with pigtails! [Laughs]
You have some closet space here with suit hangers for all the business meetings you go to
Regular hangers. We actually got these same ones from Costco.
And then the bathroom over here which has a shower, like the rainfall
shower type kind that's super luxurious. Will you demonstrate it? Will I demonstrate the
shower? I'm not taking a shower right now. I can demonstrate being inside the shower
and then what does this look like?
Whoa this comes all the way down. That's kind of weird. I don't know when you would use that.
There's probably a trick to that. I don't know. [Laughs]
You even have towels! Yeah and that's included in the cleaning every week, they'll wash your towels.
Alright, so let's go to this other bedroom closet space. Like outdoor, not outdoor... Like common
closet area. Oh wow so you can put like coats in here and games and whatever you want. But let's
go into the master bedroom. You have a queen sized bed, a great view out to the lake. Amazing view!
Very similar to the balcony. Also worth mentioning is that there's not only screens that come down
but blackout curtains as well! Plenty of closet space here. And in this bathroom
an even larger shower! We've got like a seat to do whatever you want on I guess. And another rainfall
showerhead, toilet of course, and a sink, it's like a complete bathroom.
There's a desk! Oh there's a desk! there's a freaking desk! Oh that's something we
were looking for when we were apartment hunting and had trouble finding that.
You wouldn't think, but we did. And to clarify when we were looking, we were either looking for
it to have a built-in desk, a space for a desk, an extra room for an office, and a lot of places
had none of those things. So it's not like we only wanted that built-in desk but it
is a nice feature, so anyway... All for 25,000 pesos a month. With this view, this location,
I think that's a great deal and this place is not going to last long. So I have to give you
guys some bad news. After looking at this apartment, this is my first time seeing it today, I believe I
will be renting this. So unfortunately you can't. I'm 50% kidding. I actually would totally rent
this apartment. I really really like it and uh.. So you're gonna have to beat me to it. If you're
interested in renting either of these gorgeous apartments we will leave the contact information,
a whatsapp number, down below in the description so just click see more and you will find that below.
