This is a large, beautiful home styled in traditional Mexican decor. The tile work is beautiful! AC in bedrooms is wonderful, as are the many ceiling and floor fans, so we found the Casa very comfortable despite Merida being very hot everyday, and dipping pool was also a welcome addition. Our flight was delayed, Jesus was available to check us in and out without issue (although we weren’t able to communicate on what’s app for some reason- he saw our emails). Kitchen was stocked well, although we ate at restaurants all the time. There are window screens to keep out mosquitos, which isn’t always the case at other properties. The washing machine and dryer is located in a separate building out back which is nice, but the washer takes a very long time so don’t expect to so quick laundry! Casa Noel’s location is excellent, but blocks are long so bring good shoes and a hat, you’ll be doing a lot of walking! It on a side street, but close to main thoroughfares, and 10-15 min to Parks, and only 5 mins to the famous Paseo de Montejo with all the restaurants and mansions. PIENSA ROSA is newer restaurant in a yellow mansion, with the most fabulous food and live music. Restaurants everywhere are amazing, friendly staff, beautiful ambience, great yukatanean dishes. Shop owners are not pushy at all, like in some other tourist destinations. We did a day tour to Cenote Hacienda Mucuyche, which I highly recommend - buy tickets ahead for English tour. It’s very beautiful and not crowded. Merida is a terrific place to visit, the people are especially lovely and welcoming. We will definitely stay again at Casa Noel when we come back next time, there is more to see and do than we could get done in our 5 days in Merida!
