Why the Owner Chose Merida
I heard the first time from a friend of mine about Merida and as I arrived there the first time I fell in love with the city right away. Things slow down there...life is easy...very relaxing...the most beautiful beaches are only 30 minutes away...warm clear water...just paradise !!! You sit in the sand and eat fresh fish under a banana leaf umbrella...it was a no brainer to get a house there....

My partner and I stayed in this villa for 2 weeks over the holidays and enjoyed every minute of it. Stylishly decorated, outstanding art work, quiet area, wi-fi, modern amenities. This villa was great value for our money. The house manager was helpful and available whenever we needed. The owner is reliable, honest and a pleasure to do business with. The central location is very convenient, close to shops, restaurants, central plaza and markets. Take a stroll to Santa Ana park for a Sopa de Lima and Rellenos negro at one of the cocina economica. Enjoy Merida!

It had been nearly 30 years since we visited Merida, We had a wonderful time there and were happy to learn that Merida still remains a very welcoming city that has been wonderfully restored without losing it's true Mexican identity. This lovely home was centrally located (on a very quiet street) to everything that we wanted to do. We found this home very comfortable.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, age 55+, girls getaway.

This was our first trip to Merida and we weren't disappointed. The location of this villa is perfect for exploring everything that Merida has to offer. We didn't have a car, but that wasn't a problem. Everything is within walking distance (or a short cab drive away if you don't want to walk). And there are lots of small local restaurants and a couple of cafes nearby. The villa is spacious and there is a small courtyard garden (including a lime tree) where you can sit at night and watch the stars. We took the local bus to the coast to visit the seaside towns of Progresso and Chelem. And there are lots of organized tours that you can choose from if you don't want to take local buses or don't have a car. We visited the Mayan site of Uxmal and stayed for the light and sound show at night. This villa is truly lovely, and Anna the property manager was exceptionally helpful and welcoming. As were all of the folks we met in Merida. People will just stop and chat to you...they are truly genuine and friendly. They take pride in their culture and their city. This villa is a great home base for your trip to Merida. We hope to come back again soon.

My partner and I stayed at this beautiful home this New Year's eve for a week. It was a great location to enjoy Merida and the nearby towns - including Progresso which is by the shore. Merida is a large city with a historic center and a grand boulevard - the house is near to these and all the other attractions. We had a car and found street parking to be no problem. We didn't drive around in Merida much because the house is central and we were able to walk everywhere. We would highly recommend this well finished and inviting house to any other guests.

We loved staying in this restored colonial in the heart of downtown Merida. It is very close to everything and you can walk to the local restaurants, cafes and shops. I would tell people that you do not need a car to be here as you can either walk or rent a car by the day to visit the local attractions such as the Maya ruins or Celestun, the ecological reserve. Also available are very reasonable day tours to all the sites with booking agencies in the central area. I just wished we had several more days to stay in this relaxing home!

Great house in a great location in a great city! What more is there to say? We so enjoyed our three weeks in this wonderful home. Nothing was lacking. Great furnished kitchen, great beds. Our third trip to Merida and this was the best house by far. Possibly best part is that you are literally just a few blocks from EVERYTHING....restaurants, shopping, central square and all the entertainment that goes on there.
