Homestay information

I live with my husband, a native of Merida, our young son and daughter, 2 kitties and 2 turtles, in a colonial house we restored on the southwest side of the Centro Historico (ok, the turtles live outside). Our home is a 15 minute walk from the center of downtown, and our neighborhood is full of places to shop and eat, parks to stroll in and local culture to soak up. We are both trained chefs, so our kitchen is fully equipped to whip up anything you might find in the central market. We have a beautiful pool and many lounging areas, plus a big screen tv, wifi and bikes you are welcome to use.

Meet the host

our household is a marriage of two cultures (Mexican and American), giving guests a glimpse into real family life in Merida in English and Spanish; we are also just a skip from the tourist center.

Location

Our home is located a short walk from four lovely parks, San Sebastián, Santiago, La Ermita and San Juan. It is also 3 blocks from the bus station servicing points outside of the city. It is a direct 15 minute bus ride or short taxi trip from the airport. The local bus to the Plaza Grande stops on our corner, or it is 15-20 minutes on foot. We are also very close to a large supermarket, the free Centenario park and zoo, many corner stores, a tortilleria, places to grab lunch or ice cream, and a well-stocked bakery.

House rules

Keep all screens and doors closed to keep away Mosquitos. Please do not bring friends over without checking with us first. Discard all toilet paper in the wastebasket, not the toilet. Remember to turn off your fans, ac unit, and lights when you leave the house. You are welcome to use the kitchen, but please clean up after yourself.
