My family and I stayed here for a week during March 2025. The house is stunning. The renovations to this historic property were spot on and the amenities were fantastic. The pool is big enough for a nice game of volleyball and we even eat bananas off of The garden paradise in the back. Communication with the staff was phenomenal and they are super helpful. I highly recommend this place for families. I would get a noise machine installed on your tablet as the street noise can be a bit much. But with that being said earplugs were provided we were able to walk to the main center plaza catch Ubers and even get Uber eats. Highly recommend.

This is an elegant and well-stocked property. Great linens, Jura coffee machine (fabulous!) pre-stocked with a variety of liquors/beers/wines, and small details like bug spray, umbrellas, weight equipment, etc. We were very comfortable. Our hosts were quick to respond to questions and were very helpful. The location is safe and fine, but a little more off the beaten path than we would have preferred. Not a problem, but it was a 10 minute further walk from nearly everything than we wanted. Good news is uber is cheap and quick so even though we love to walk, we eventually just ubered back and forth to avoid the 20 minute walk to most places we wanted to go. But you can't beat the comfort and design of the property. Thank you!

That's the amount of stars I would give if I could.
The House:
The property was tastefully designed and didn't feel like a rental property but also didn't feel like someone's personal home. It was welcoming, comfortable, and tastefully designed. It was a home away from home, but a rental which you never find with rental properties. The beds were so comfortable, the rooms were large and private with lots of natural light from the skylights and large floor to ceiling windows. The pool area was divine, a great way to siesta after walking around all morning and afternoon. Merida is hot (98* in early March) and to be able to come back to a serene and beautiful pool was incredible. The house is fully stocked with coffee, osmosis water filter so you can drink from it's special filtered tap. Washer and dryer available. They also had beer, wine and tequila available for purchase already stocked at the house. They also offer full services like house cleaning, cenote tours, private drivers, private chef, etc. 10000000000000 stars for this!!
The Location:
It is in Centro but expect to walk about 10-15 minutes to park squares like Santa Ana or Santiago. Uber is cheap there so take one if you have limited mobility. I highly recommend visiting Santa Ana to shop and play.
I honestly could go on forever on how wonderful our stay was but I'm limited on characters. What really made our stay memorable were the hosts Elena and Alberto. So kind and attentive, I wish more hosts were like them.
