Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Gregory
Casa Arcana began as a shared dream. We’re a couple from the U.S. and Mexico. Aleika grew up in the Yucatán Peninsula, and Greg is an artist. We were both drawn to Mérida for its color, creativity, and deep sense of place. Aleika is an interior designer, and together we slowly shaped this home by hand, piece by piece, imagining the kind of place we ourselves would want to arrive at after a long journey.
Hosting, for us, is about offering more than a place to sleep. It’s about creating a feeling. A home where mornings are unhurried, afternoons drift by the pool, and evenings invite conversation, rest, or inspiration. Casa Arcana is where our worlds meet: thoughtful design, artful details, and the easy warmth of the Yucatán. We’re excited to share it with you.

Why they chose this property
Barrio de Santiago is one of Mérida's oldest and most beloved neighborhoods, and the moment you walk its streets, you understand why. Life here unfolds at a human pace. Mornings start with coffee and fresh bread, neighbors greet one another by name, and evenings bring people out to stroll beneath the trees.
Just a few minutes away is Parque de Santiago, a shady, soulful plaza centered around the historic Parroquia de Santiago Apóstol, whose presence anchors the neighborhood with quiet beauty. Nearby, Mercado de Santiago is a daily ritual for locals, offering fresh juices, Yucatecan breakfasts, flowers, and the comforting buzz of everyday life.
We love Santiago because it’s central and walkable, yet refreshingly grounded. You’re close to everything Centro has to offer, but far enough to feel the rhythm of real Mérida—authentic, welcoming, and alive.

What makes this property unique
Casa Arcana is a private sanctuary hidden behind Centro doors. When you enter, the city gently fades and a sense of calm takes over. The property is entirely yours, and we designed it to flow effortlessly between indoor comfort and outdoor living.
Every space was curated with intention: natural light, soothing materials, comfortable beds, strong air conditioning, and fast WiFi throughout. Outside, a large private pool becomes the heart of the home...perfect for long swims, afternoon lounging, or quiet evenings. The poolhouse adds an extra layer of magic, with a simple upper deck ideal for yoga, meditation, or watching the sky change colors.
Sustainability is woven in quietly, from local plants to a biodigester system that protects Mérida’s groundwater. The result is a home that feels boutique but unpretentious, artistic yet deeply comfortable. It's a home designed to you to linger, exhale, explore, and truly enjoy where you are.
