About this property

Contemporary Elegance in Historic Downtown

Located in Merida, the original heart of the Mayan civilization, now the cultural and art center of the Yucatan Peninsula. It boasts excellent restaurants, art galleries, museums, theatre, a world class symphony and a rich 500 year history of Spanish, French, Portuguese and Lebanese influence. It's steps away from Parque Santa Lucia where you can find excellent dining and very close to the new gastronomic corridor - home to some of the best restaurants in the city. Also close to the beaches on the Gulf of Mexico (25 miles) and several Mayan ruins including Chichen Itza, a world heritage site. The house has 20 foot ceilings with a living room (with a pull-out couch), 2 bedrooms and very large gourmet kitchen that opens out to a terrace and private pool. The second floor has the primary bedroom with luxury ensuite and two terraces. All rooms feature natural ventilation and light as well as air conditioning in the primary and main floor bedroom.

Great casa in the heart of the action
Spacious home in the heart of Merida, with an impression of grandeur thanks to the high ceilings and tasteful decoration. We were two couples who shared this casa for one month and we thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the refreshing pool, since most days in Merida are quite hot. Only drawback is the loud music in the neighborhood on certain evenings and nights, as the casa is close to the action in historic Merida.

Fantastic spot!
The house was gorgeous! We stayed by the pool which was so clean and just perfect. I will say that parking was a pain so just be prepared to hunt a bit before you can find a spot if you rented a car. Otherwise, all of the local attractions were in walking distance. Very easy stay!

Amazing home
This was our second stay at this property. It is an awesome home in a great location. We lived in the home for 5 weeks. Everything you need is there. There is great communication with the owner. The property managers are very responsive. When the water pump broke they were there immediately and a new pump installed within a couple of hours.

Just what we needed!
My husband and I just spent 2 weeks at this comfortable property. We particularly loved the 3 well-furnished separate outdoor areas for sun and shade, the quiet and effective AC in the bedroom, the washer/dryer, and the excellent water pressure in the showers. The location is perfect, around the corner from Santa Lucia. It was covid, so we spent a lot of time at the house, and the internet was fast and reliable. Lupita, the property manager, was excellent -- always on whatsapp and responding to our inquiries within minutes. We had a serious problem with the water and she had a plumber within an hour and a new pump by the end of the day. What could have been a disaster was hardly a disruption to our stay. There were good knives and pots in the kitchen, but no dishwasher and only very basic dishes. More than adequate for simple meals -- Merida is a great restaurant town, so we ate out mostly. A couple of things to know: 1. there is a dramatic staircase to the master bedroom with no railing, so I would not want to bring small children. 2. the house would be small for 2 couples, but it was the perfect size for the 2 of us. There was construction adjacent to the house, which was noisy and reduced our privacy, but the owner generously warned us about it before we arrived; we chose to come anyway and are glad we did. This was our fourth visit to beautiful Merida, and this house was a great base for us. Thank you Lupita and Tim!

Lovely property spoiled by construction noise
We didn’t need or use the upstairs bedroom. The first floor king was more than enough. The pool was a delight and I was in almost every day, but too cool for my wife. We thought that the construction noise would stop in the evening but it did not till 16:00-17:00.
