Great location - close to Centro!

Casa Lola is a lovely respite in Merida. It is well appointed with everything you would need while enjoying the beautiful city of Merida. Property management was very responsive. A/C splits in bedrooms worked well and we enjoyed the relaxing oasis of the back yard.

The house is comfortable, beautifully decorated, and within walking distance of almost everything! We did have some challenges with the washing machine and no hot water on our last morning.

A beautiful home right in the heart of Merida Centro!

Two couples spent twelve days here in March. The home is lovely and had everything we needed. The local "girl friday" was always available for anything we needed - which wasn't often. We loved the outdoor patio and pool and spent a lot of time here. Being able to walk to everything we wanted to do or see made this a perfect place for us. Can't recommend it enough!

A comfortable and artistic oasis

Casa Lola is a beautifully furnished and decorated property with a private pool and within 10 minutes walking of Merida’s Grand Plaza. The property managers provide excellent support and advice. Calle 66 is pretty busy and noisy but the sound does not penetrate Casa Lola too much. Well recommended!

I have stayed in vacation rentals around the world and I must say Casa Lola ranks in the top 10. Its comfortable, clean, beautiful, and has great energy. Everything is well thought out to make your stay enjoyable. The check-in and out process was easy. Communication with our host was super helpful and responsive. Keep up the good work! I will book again.

Lovely oasis in Mérida Centro.

The property is beautiful and comfortably appointed. When we weren't out exploring, we spent most of our time on the covered patio or in the pool. Property managers were personable and attentive. We experienced a little confusion about whether there was an additional charge for electricity (which was not specified in the VRBO listing) but that was cleared up immediately.

First time in Merida

Beautiful home, great location, but a few repairs for management to attend to. Also, should factor electrical costs into the rent. Electricity had to be paid in pesos at the end of the stay.

Thank you Charles for the review. I'm glad you loved our home in Merida. Just so you know, I am no longer charging for the electrical charges if guests use 25 kw per day or less. I offer that complimentary so that was an error with them charging you so I am sorry. As far as repairs, the management team will take care of those small items right away. Thank you for staying at Casa Lola and I will welcome you back any time. Casa Lola does have a perfect location and its such a private oasis, so I'm glad you got to enjoy it. Much thanks. Janis

Beautiful home, Great location

Fully equipped home in a great location less than 10 minute walk to main square. It was a bit noisy since it was on a busy road, but quiet in the evenings for sleep. The pool was a great size, not a plunge pool. You could actually swim in it. The house was filled with beautiful Mexican decor. Only the bedrooms are air conditioned.

Thank you Gisela for the good review. I'm glad you enjoyed the pool and where we are located. It is incredibly close to Santiago parque, and Santa Lucia....pretty well right in between. Also, close as you say to the main square which is why we chose that house. Most homes in Merida have AC just in the bedrooms where its most likely needed most. We have just purchased a new AC unit for the back bedroom. There will be a bit of noise during the day at our house on occasion because you are right in the heart of Centro. It cant be helped, but as you say, its quiet at night when you need it quiet. Sometimes you can hear the children singing during the day from the schools which we find incredibly charming. I'm happy you enjoyed yourselves while in Merida. I would love to have you stay again. Janis

Idyllic Home for a Happy Vacation

Casa Lola is a bit of Paradise. The high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling French doors, elegant grillwork, charming decorations, and romantic lighting create an enchanting ambiance. The pool and garden are lovely. The French Bakery, Escargot, is just a block over and that became our little second home in Merida. The owner and property managers could not be nicer. For us, it was a sort of writers' retreat. We did our writing on the terrace, took dips in the pool, and went out for dinner in the evenings. We could not have been happier with this experience.

Idyllic!

We had the most relaxing stay in this calm and beautiful setting. The backyard provides a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of daily life in Merida. The house is large, airy and comfortable. Our only complaint is that the showers need to be modernized - the shower heads themselves are too high up on the wall and it is difficult to direct them. Lots of hot water though. Property management is very responsive and dealt with minor issues quickly. Overall, a delightful stay!

Wonderful home nestled in the heart of Centro Merida

Spacious and exotic feelings in the courtyard next to the pool. Ceiling fans throughout create a breeze where the need for air conditioners is forgotten. Fully stocked kitchen. Ample bath and beach towels. Purified water available in the kitchen for drinking and coffee. Location was excellent allowing walks to markets and restaurants. Irregular for HomeAways but totally normal for Merida’s homeaway is a small electricity charged for you actual use. This was about $20US per day. But totally offset by very reasonable nightly rates. Wish we could have stayed another 2-3 weeks. Thanks for a 6 Star HomeAway vacation.

Thank you Dana for the wonderful review. I'm really happy that you enjoyed Casa Lola. We were really glad to have you stay. I was a bit concerned over the 20 USD that you thought you paid for the electricity, but after checking with my property manager, they took a picture of the bill, and yours was 346 pesos which is less than 17.00 USD for your entire stay, so that made me feel a bit better. That worked out to about 4.25 per day, and not 20 USD. We would love to have you stay again, and thank you for the 6 stars. Janis

Beautiful home in Mérida

Perfect home location for us during our visit to Merida. Lovely decorating of each room. So much personality in this home. We were quite pleased and enjoyed our stay. The bedrooms are super comfortable with the most cushy beds! Kitchen is quite functional with all the necessities for preparing meals. We enjoyed afternoon dips in the pool on some very hot days! Proximity of the home to sites within Merida was good. We were able to walk into town if we wanted to or could easily take an Uber. For getting outside Mérida into outlying areas, the homeowner, Janis, suggested we hire Argel, an excellent tour guide with Yucatan Awesome Tours. He’s the best! So knowledgeable and such a kind person, too. We had an incredible time. Our stay in Merida really could not have gone any better.

Beautiful Colonial Home Near Main Attractions

Well appointed, updated home within walking distance of the Main Plaza and all other attractions. Manager communicated often to ensure that everything was well. Enjoyed the pool, and the well-appointed, air- conditioned bedrooms. My only suggestion would be to install a mini-split in the living room. It is too hot and stuffy, especially since all the windows are sealed, to enjoy the nice flat screen TV with a great choice of English channels. Also appreciated the flawless high-speed Internet throughout the house. TVs in the bedrooms and the AC in the living room would make a great property even better. Charge for electricity was modest at $45 a week, considering that it was the middle of summer and we ran the AC in both bedrooms 24-hours a day. Will definitely try to go back.

Thanks Robert for the great review. I would be happy for you to stay at Casa Lola again. We have been considering AC in the living area, because definitely in the summer heat, that room needs it. We find ourselves mostly hanging out at the back covered patio if its too hot, but we are thinking of adding the AC in the living room when we come down in December. This is something we definitely want to do. I have never thought of TV's in the bedrooms. Something we can consider, but I think of being down there and reading, and when we are there, we forget about TV, but it might be an easy, and nice addition. That one we will think on. I'm glad you enjoyed the house and Merida, and I would be happy to welcome you again. Happy travels. Janis

Absolutely Great Stay

Completely satisfied with our stay. Would stay here again and have already recommended to friends. ---Pros: 1- Location is perfect. Most everything in the city is within walking distance. We used our car only for out-of-town excursions. Parking spot was also set-up for us! 2- Property is amazing. It's more than I expected. Great lay out. Space is plenty and thought-through. Fun decor. 3- Property manager was very* responsive throughout or stay 4- Tech: good smartTV, WiFi, Stereo, etc. 5- Kitchen: Equipped! Actually. Minus dull-knives and perhaps lack of storage containers for extended stays, this is the best kitchen we've had in some time... maybe ever. 6- Pool: perfect temperature. 4.5? feet deep. Regularly serviced. Easily fits of family for lounging. 7- Thoughtful planning for guests: beach towels, guest book (needs updated), labels, maps, books, schedules (gardener, cleanings, etc), parking, etc. ---LessThanPros (these were not 'problems' but if you want the full picture): 1- Mosquitos were an issue in the second bedroom. Once this was identified, some bug spray & PJ pants solved the issue. 2- Beds are comfy... enough. No pain or discomfort, but we were happy to be back on ours. 3- Check-in/Check-out: the actual process* was easy. Super easy. But I had to 'track down' property manager the day of arrival because I hadn't received check-in info. None of these are deal-breakers for me -- at all. But I find that different things matter to different people :) You won't regret staying at Casa Lola. Not even a little bit. In fact, once you get to know the city a little, I'm sure you'll be glad* you scored Lola.

Thank you Juan for your great review. I'm happy that you loved our home in Merida and we would be very happy to have you stay again. I'm so glad you enjoyed our location (yes...its perfect and we bought the house partly for that reason), our decor (so fun to decorate that house with worldly antiques and items) and the layout. It is a great layout for 4 people for sure. Thank you for your comments and helpful hints as well because I can address those quite easily so some new knives and storage containers , and we can keep the mosquito repellant in the cupboard because, yes, sometimes those small annoying creatures show up. We find the beds quite firm in Mexico, but end up with less back pain so they really work for us, but everyone of course is different but I'm glad they worked for you. Our pool is 5 feet deep if the pool is full up to the top, and it is great for a family or friends for hanging around, or for a bit of pool exercises, and I'm happy you enjoyed it. We keep it maintained weekly all year round in case guests stay to keep it fresh and just in case we can get a trip in to Merida. The garden is really an oasis, as is the entire house when you open up the front doors from the street, and I am really delighted that you saw what we saw when we purchased the house a few years back. Please stay again - we will welcome you. Janis

Janis and her property management team were super responsive and so helpful. Even the cleaning people, pool guys and gardener were so nice and kind. The pool was a godsend for us because it was screaming hot while we were there. We pretty much lived on the fabulous patio with the twinkly garden, fountain and pool lights. The beds were comfortable and the place is fully outfitted and very secure. The location is perfect for hitting restaurants, grocery stores and all the different squares and parks for the nightly entertainment. Merida is beautiful and lively, the local restaurants are so good and the people are sweet and kind. It was a great two weeks! Janis and I kept in touch throughout our stay. She would check in periodically to ensure we had everything we needed. Thank you to Janis and her excellent team, we had a stress free, fabulous vacation! We will definitely be back!
