Santa Lucia vacation rentals

Property is in a great location. It is spacious and full of natural light, with mini-split air conditioning in all bedrooms and common areas. Having one bedroom upstairs and one down created a nice degree of privacy.Kitchen is well appointed and was perfect for our group of four. Backyard garden and pool were great for us as well.Nenad was the best host we have ever had. Communication was easy, quick and extremely helpful.Others have noted that it gets bright in the bedrooms in the morning. If you enjoy sleeping past 8:30am you might want to skip this rental, but for everyone else I strongly recommend you choose this home!

Much of the home is outdoors, wonderful when west is great.

Casa Gatita is hands down one of the BEST vacation homes I have stayed in. I worked remotely for the week of my stay and can say everything went seamlessly. WIFI was always excellent. Manager Beto kept in constant contact with me to ensure I was comfortable and answered any questions or concerns I had. I can't say enough positive things about the Burro y Flauta team. You are within walking distance to several restaurants and bakeries. I highly recommend Pan Elena Vales. I purchased fresh pastries from them daily. About a 5 min walk from the casa. IMO, the casa is perfect for a solo travel, or a couple. Lots of space between the two levels, and I loved the decor of the entire. I appreciated all of the unique art and furniture throughout. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom itself was extremely spacious. Also, it was nice to have a half bath on the ground level, in additon to the main shower/restroom down the hall from the bedroom. Cooking was a breeze. Excellent coffee maker. The AC units and ceiling fans were a godsend. Not to mention the wonderful private pool. The laundry room was perfect for preparing my clothes for my trip home after my 2 weeks in Quintana Roo and the Yucatan. I would 1000% percent stay at Casa Gatita again, as well as any other property ran by this company. They are fantastic people. My one recommendation for improvement would be to have the sectional cushions re-stuffed. Parts of the sectional have a sinking aspect to the seat.

There is so much to say about Casa Jirafa! The home itself is absolutely beautiful and authentic to the local culture. The pool was such a fun bonus, especially after a long day in the Yucatán heat. The location is perfect for visiting all the must-see locations and everything is within a 10 minute walk, with plenty of restaurants, cantinas, and shopping along the way. But what truly places Casa Jirafa above and beyond any place we have ever stayed are the hosts. They answered every single question leading up to, during and after our stay, promptly and diligently. Their guidebook to Mérida is simply amazing, and they even provided more local favorites (less touristy) per our request. They secured an amazing driver from Mérida to Cancun for us, and even arranged last minute changes to the itinerary for stops at Chichen Itza and Cenote Ikkil. We prefer home rentals when traveling and for the most part have always had great experiences, but the hosts of Casa Jirafa are truly the most amazing and attentive we have ever encountered. Would absolutely recommend and consider again if we return.

Words and photos can’t do the Villa Romantica experience justice. The property and most of all the hosts were simply incredible. This is by far the best VRBO experience we have ever had. We rented Via Romantic for the month of February 2023. We had been to Merida several times in the past so knew how much we enjoyed the city but Villa Romantica and Natalie and Colum made us fall in love with this old colonial city. The property is very special. A beautifully renovated old colonial in PERFECT location (walk to everything…and a wonderful bakery/coffee shop 2 doors down). The rooftop garden is glorious in the morning and the evening. The plunge pool provides a lovely place to cool off after a day exploring the city or nearby ruins. Natalie and Colum have seen to every detail for their guests. The linens are lovely, the kitchen is well-equipped (although with all the great restaurants in Merida, we rarely ate at home), the laundry facilities (a malfunctioning dryer was fixed within hours) were modern and easy to operate, and bathrooms were spotless. Natalie and Colum had stocked the frig and pantry for our arrival and had them restocked during our stay. Colum even arranged to add ESPN to the TV channels so my husband could get his morning sports talk show fix. They responded immediately to any questions. We’ve never had such thoughtful, attentive hosts; they treated us like old friends from the moment we arrived. Don’t miss this very, very special experience!

We loved our stay in Merida. Great location, walkable, easy street parking and a beautiful home!

This place is actually even prettier in person. And the hosts are both extremely professional and highly personable-- perfect combo. After a week in Merida, where we have friends with houses, we think that this property is the perfect location. Quiet street a short walk to the center. Also, the garden area is extraordinary-- huge and beautifully laid out. We tended to go out to lunch and then cook or get take-away for dinner-- no restaurant could be as nice as sitting at the table with the garden lit up all around you. We rented a car and it was very easy to park and to get around in it-- lots of outings outside the city. Definitely book this place.

Lemeau was just the most gracious hostess ever ! A great pleasure to be with her & get to know each other better. Thee only place to stay when in Merida .
