Vanessa Villegas
MEET VANESSA VILLEGAS
For Vanessa exquisite taste in cuisine and design runs through her heritage. Born into a family of chefs, restaurateurs and caterers, she employs a unique level of ‘sazón’ in all her creations. For over 20 years her attention to detail and exquisite taste has made her an accomplished and recognized Mexican event designer, planner and florist.
Since 2015, Vanessa has called San Miguel de Allende home and is co-owner of the award winning ZUMO Rooftop and Villa Limón Boutique Hotel. She has a masters degree in Interior Design from Domus Academy in Milan, Italy, and studied architecture at the University of Guadalajara, Vanessa has completely redesigned this Spanish Revival building in historic centro, now home to Zumo Rooftop and Villa Limón. Both the restaurant/event space and hotel feature Vanessa’s iconic vision which blends classic motifs with a modern twist that showcases her relaxed, elegant signature design.
Vanessa is not only bilingual, but having grown up with dual citizenship (Mexican and U.S.) she is completely bicultural and easily navigates the nuances of social engagements and business relationships on both sides of the border.
