This place is GORGEOUS and within walking distance of so many restaurants and shops! The cafe across the street was incredible and a daily visit for us while we stayed in Merida! Everyone we encountered in the area was so nice, helpful, and patient with communication while we attempted to remember our high school Spanish :) The pool/garden area is something from a dream and we used it daily! We did have a few things that were not working in the home but the responsiveness of the host was always very quick and they gave us so many excellent recommendations for places to eat, visit, and shop!

The Airbnb was perfectly situated in the heart of Mérida, placing us just steps away from the vibrant energy of the park and an incredible selection of local restaurants. The location made exploring the city’s culinary scene effortless, yet the space remained a peaceful retreat to return to each evening. We couldn't have asked for a better home base to experience the best of the city’s culture and convenience.

Thank you so much, Guillermina, for such a nice stay. We were really happy during our visit. The house is exactly as shown in the listing and in the photos, very comfortable and well maintained. Plus, it's located in an excellent area, very close to the food walk, Parque La Plancha, and Paseo Montejo, which made everything even easier and more enjoyable. But most importantly, we want to highlight Charito, who provided us with exceptional service as a manager. Always attentive, kind and attentive to every detail. Congratulations, and thank you so much!

The house was exactly what we needed for a big group trip for a wedding. Everyone had access at their own time and had great private accommodations with their own bathroom. We barely had to uber anywhere as it was easy to walk to wherever we needed to be that day. The house is beautiful and clean!

This place was better than i had thought from seeing the pictures from the listing. The host were more than friendly and had great suggestions for things to do around the area. We had one minor issue and they were there within ten minutes to help resolve the issue. They also went out of their way to help us when we were 4 hours away at midnight. Cant recommend them enough.
