300 year old colonial mansion one block from the town square

The house is huge, bedrooms are comfortable and property is beautiful. Daniel was very kind and helpful. She was available to share advice and great places to visit.

Our host was wonderful and the property is beyond description. We enjoyed it immensely and the town is lovely!

The many intentional gathering spaces placed throughout this property created opportunity for effortless connection and organic communication. We were treated like royalty from the moment we were cheerfully greeted by Danielle and Carlos until the moment we reluctantly said our final farewell. We are already making plans for our return!

We absolutely loved our stay. It was one of the high points of our trip to Mexico. We couldn’t believe this was our home for a few days! The location is perfect, the natural setting gives you the chance to enjoy the outdoors constantly, and Carlos and Danielle were amazing helps during our stay. We loved hearing the history of the property and it was fantastic to get to cook family meals in this kitchen! My two teen girls and I felt perfectly safe even in the heart of Valladolid.

Cool unique place to stay in heart of Vallodolid. Comfortable. Beautiful covered patio and courtyard with ceiling fans and gorgeous landscaping. We enjoyed just sitting and visiting with our extended family during the holiday season. Even caught the Christmas parade as it passed directly by our front door on the way to the town square. We had great fun. Not sure the house would be good for young children as it contains many delicate and interesting pieces of art. Hope to come back again someday.

Words and photos cannot describe and do not do justice to the gorgeous oasis that this mansion is! We have stayed in many impressive houses and mansions and this one is at the top of the list! We wish we were staying here for our whole trip! Danielle is the most charming, knowledgeable, responsive host and her recommendations were spot on! We will try to return.

The house was even more gorgeous than the photos in the VRBO post. The property was a beautiful oasis in the center of the city. The colonial architecture and furniture style have been painstakingly maintained. Carlos, the groundskeeper, was a gem and even ran an errand for us on the first morning - bringing us fresh tortillas. Danielle, the property manager, was super helpful and very responsive. She shared some terrific suggestions with us about where to eat and what to do with our two girls. Our daughters, 2 and 8, loved exploring the property. The wifi only works in a portion of the house, due to the thick adobe walls. But this was expected.

Absolutely great!

After many vacations on the coast, our family ventured inland to Valladolid and were greeted by friendly people in a beautiful setting. The hacienda was the crown jewel of the experience, and we wished we'd have booked more nights! The hostess is a joy pointing us towards great food and experiences and even taking our daughter to tend to her rescue dogs to her delight. Highly recommended!

Danielle was an exceptional host and the attention to detail, inside and out, of the entire home is outstanding.

This is our second time staying at Amora Karina because we enjoyed our first stay so much. It was wonderful to return to this extraordinary place, to step off the street into another world of beautiful rooms with historic details and impossibly high ceilings, a private walled garden where we sat under a balcony to enjoy a tropical rainstorm and the birds singing, and a rooftop with an incredible view of Templo de San Servacio, whose bells we could hear ringing. The kitchen is fabulous, and we enjoyed cooking and eating in the garden, and there are so many little touches that add to the experience. Danielle gave us a warm welcome, making us feel like family, and Carlos is friendly and helpful. The location is great, a few blocks from the town square, museums and restaurants, and the cenote and market are about 15 minutes walk away, so easy to shop and swim. We look forward to returning for a third time!

My family of 4 (including 9 yo and 15 yo) had a wonderful, memorable stay at this property. The property is so secluded and calm inside the walls with a beautiful garden and there are so many different parts of the property to enjoy. The home feels very historic / timeless, but many amenities are modern and functional (bathroom fixtures, A/C in all 3 bedrooms, modern washer and dryer, etc). Danielle was incredibly helpful with recommendations - we dined at her restaurant recommendations both nights and both were delicious, and she offered lots of helpful advice when one of the kids didn't feel well. Carlos was kind and helpful and his talent in the landscaping is incredible, but since we don't speak Spanish we were not able to get to know him well. Note that Carlos is in and out regularly in the daytime to check on the property via the homes front door, turn on / off outdoor lights etc. Depending on your preferences this can be excellent or surprising. We always felt safe and while we were there his visits were short and he only attended to the more public spaces (e.g. gardens).

Lovingly restored 18th century sprawling property, with beautiful garden, filled with antiques and modern amenities. One of the best properties we ever had a luck to stay. Danielle, who manages the property, was superb communicator, answering our many questions prior our arrival and went above and beyond assisting us with our needs. Highly recommended.

Very unique place that took you back in time. Host was very helpful and easy to reach. We really enjoyed our stay. Everything's was within walking fistance.

Our family of five greatly enjoyed our stay. The house and grounds are beautiful and it is well located to the town center and many great restaurants. Danielle provided lots of helpful information and Carlos attended to all our needs. It was a very special place to stay. I highly recommend.

That house is wonderful with large spaces and good access to the centre of town. However we had substantial issues with a few important amenities. The upstairs bedroom toilet flush didn't work for the entire stay. The wifi doesn't work anywhere except the main bedroom. I recommend a wifi extender in the house. Basic amenities like a kettle and microwave were not provided. It made cooking in the house harder. Danielle is a nice host with great communication and tried to assist but I would check for the above basic amenities before staying here again, not worth the price.

This was such a wonderful stay! From the impeccable design, beautiful gardens, and historical relevance (this house belonged to the first town doctor), Casa Amore Carina was an amazing, one of a kind experience. We were all taken with the beauty, hospitality, and comfort of this stay. A big thanks to Danielle, the host, who took care of all our needs and wants, and went above and beyond with daily recommendations. Also, thank you Carlos!
