Named “CASA DEL ARBOL”, designed by nature and one of Mérida’s upcoming star architects, combines this amazing rental home Mérida’s traditional colonial architecture with nature, rustic and modern elements as well as all modern amenities in a truly unique way. The house will talk to people looking for something unique and particular. While nature implemented a wonderful living tree into the colonial structure, managed the architect to integrate the given nature elements into her architectural concept in order for them to coexist in harmony. The result is an outstanding home full of peace and joy. The house features two cozy bedrooms, each one with its dedicated bathroom and A/C and WIFI.

Industrial Chic in Mérida
Amazing property! The architectural details and choices made are top notch. Loved the cool polished concrete on my bare feet. Loved the indoor/outdoor living on both levels of the casa. The owner, Jerome, is wonderful and VERY responsive to texts (WhatsApp preferred platform). I felt very comfortable walking in this neighborhood on my own at night. And a great French bakery and espresso café several blocks away.

Very Nice, but
There is no AC in the main living areas. This is a problem when the temp outside is 100+. We really couldn't enjoy the house because it was too hot to move around. We were confined to the bedrooms. If you are traveling in cooler months this is a great option. The living area is large and nicely decorated. Kitchen is fully equipped. Nice little courtyard with pool and a large 2nd floor patio. Bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. Location is good. Parking available on the street.

Really cool vibes
The house is as pictured, beautifully appointed. The owners were courteous, helpful and very pleasant to converse with. Gave us many ideas, went to a couple of the restaurants they suggested and the food was great! Matteo very helpful and was there to greet us, do a house run through and waited patiently for us on a Friday night!

Perfect Stay
We had a great stay, really liked the location in the city , and house was comfortable and perfect for our needs. The pool was wonderful for early mornings and afternoon dips , comfortable beds , plenty of hot water and incredible communication with the owner who was always in contact and sending us suggestions of dining and places to visit . Mateo was always available by phone if you need him . Explore the Southern neighborhoods as well as Centro and above . We walked in a different direction every day for two weeks and loved exploring and also seeing the renovations in the city. Very safe city and kind people always willing to help . Thank you Jerome! For making everything so easy !

Beautiful Merida Home
My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at Casa Del Abor for 4 days on our first trip to Merida. The home is beautifully designed, clean and comfortable. The pool delightful. Our communications with the owner was easy and check-in with Mateo, the house keeper, seamless. The owner is gracious and very welcoming- providing fabulous dining suggestions and places to visit. The home is convenient and walking to/from restaurants and historical sites safe. We had a rental car (happy we did) but found parking challenging in the central areas. We highly recommend Casa Del Abor if visiting Merida. We will be back.

Lovely place to stay in Merida
My husband and infant twins spent a few days at this property and had a lovely time. The home is stunning. The work Jerome and his family did to update the home but maintain the charm is incredible. There are fans throughout the home to keep things cool and AC in the bedrooms for nighttime. We loved the dipping pool in the back to refresh from walks outside. The front room is a little loud with street noise as it’s on a busy road but nothing a noise machine couldn’t mask. The main bedroom is very quiet with a gorgeous view over the pool. Jerome and Mateo were very helpful and Jerome gave us a recommendation for an amazing cenote to visit with our infant daughters. We recommend this property and when we come back to Merida would definitely want to stay here again.

Beautiful!
Pictures do not do justice to this beautiful and lovingly restored home. Peaceful, serene and comfortable place to stay in the heart of Merida. Safe and friendly neighborhood--while we were waiting to check in, a neighbor, thinking we were lost,just walked up and asked if we needed help. Easy walk to the Santiago market and a small grocery, but a bit longer walk to the main square(still doable for 65+ year olds). The casa is well supplied with all the essentials and has a full kitchen for cooking . The main bedroom is stunning with 2 walls of windows, wow! Lots of fans throughout the house to improve airflow and a/c in the bedrooms worked perfectly. Loved the 3 well designed outdoor spaces for relaxing or a quick siesta. Can't wait to stay here again!

Delightfully Serene
Our experience at Casa del Arbol was wonderful!! The location, adjacent to Centro Merida was great and is ideal for exploring the city. Jerome and Melanie were so hospitable. Their home was clean and exactly as pictured, both beautiful and tasteful. They also provided us with great restaurant recommendations and helpful information during our stay. We felt at home immediately!
