TRUE CLASSIC COLONIAL MASTERPIECE with huge rooftop patio. Walk to restaurants.

The place to stay in Merida!The location was great; everything in the historic district was within walking distance. There was a coffee shop/bakery literally next door for breakfast or lunch. Ubers were plentiful, with most rides arriving within five minutes.The house was unique in our experience. It was beautiful, spacious, and very clean (no bugs!). The pool area and garden was open to the sky, flowing seamlessly into the living area and kitchen. The bedrooms were quiet and comfortable. Furnishings throughout were comfortable and in keeping with the style of the house. The kitchen and laundry were very well equipped with everything we needed.Our hosts were the most helpful and gracious we’ve ever had for a vacation rental. They recommended a local tour guide, Alejandro, for day trips, and he did a fabulous job.

Can't say enough good things about Villa Romantica, or the hosts. The Villa is as lovely and comfortable as the pictures suggest. The location can't be beat, being walking distance to many markets, plazas, and Merida's central attractions. And the hosts are the most gracious and thoughtful I have encountered over many VRBO trips -- offering tips, recommendations, and even a few provisions upon our nighttime arrival with a child.

We stayed at Casa Romantica for a wedding in Mérida. The house is beautiful, well located in downtown Mérida and quite large. It is a true colonial house with gorgeous tile work and a lot of greenery in the court yard. The roof top terrace is a very nice complement to the already abundant seating areas.We would definitely go back not only for the house but also for the kindness, availability and helpfulness of the owners.We had a great stay

This home was absolutely beautiful. The pictures do not do it justice. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioning was perfect. The details of the home were spot on. The book with instructions was more than helpful & I loved the back history of the home being provided in there. The property managers were in constant communication with us. The stay was beyond what I could have imagined!!

If you’re looking for a place in the middle of Merida with tons of space and a way to cool off in the middle of a hot day you found it. It was so beautiful, well functioning with many different areas for people to hang out either in the cool downstairs or beautiful roof top. AC worked well at night and sleeping was quiet and comfortable. Hosts were very helpful with local activity recommendations. We were tracking with a group from 18-81 years old and everyone was blow away with the space! Stay here you will be happy you did!

We loved our time in this super special and totally breathtaking home. Located in the center of town, just a few blocks from all of the main shopping and dining avenues, it is next door to the most fabulous bakery and breakfast/lunch spot (with the kindest servers!) It’s a beautifully appointed and immaculate home with tons of space for folks to spread out, but it also has great gathering areas and enjoys absolute privacy from the outside world. This renovated historic home feels totally authentic, super luxurious and supremely comfortable all at once. What a treat to spend our home-base time here after our daytime adventures out and about in the area— it was a place of respite and reset and we are grateful for the great local suggestions and clear communication from Natalie during our whole week. Muchas gracias por todos!

Villa Romantica is an experience not to be missed when visiting Mérida. The home’s ideal location in the Historical Centre, architecture, and amenities set the stage for the perfect vacation. We’ve interacted with many Premier/Super Hosts through the years, but Natalie and Colum exceeded all past experiences. Their attention to detail was unsurpassed as they provided personalized concierge service to assist with planning transportation, excursions, in-home services, city exploration, dining, and more. Natalie responded to all communications in a timely manner as she went above and beyond to ensure we had a relaxing vacation. We would definitely stay at Villa Romantica during future visits.

If you’re looking for a place to rent in Mérida, look no further. Congratulations—you’ve found the best! This property is simply stunning, and believe every glowing review you read. My partner and I have spent the last 15 years traveling through Europe and Mexico, opting for rental apartments and villas over hotels. With extensive experience in dealing with property managers and owners, we’ve come to expect a certain level of service. However, our stay at Villa Romantica exceeded all expectations. What truly sets this property apart is the exceptional customer service. We’ve never experienced anything quite like it in all our years of traveling. Natalie was attentive and always eager to make our stay as personalized and enjoyable as possible. She didn’t just provide basic recommendations; she took the time to understand our preferences and tailored suggestions to our lifestyle. Our 6-week stay in Mérida was an unforgettable experience. Thanks to Natalie’s recommendations, we enjoyed a variety of activities, from guided tours with Alejandro to exploring points of interest, discovering beautiful walking destinations, and dining at top-notch restaurants. Every detail was taken care of, making it a stress-free and enriching experience. In summary, if you’re considering a stay in Mérida, Villa Romantica is the place to be. From the property’s beauty to the unparalleled service, it’s truly a gem. We can't recommend it highly enough!

We absolutely loved our stay at this home (4 nights). The home is well equipped and beautiful; we spent many hours enjoying the courtyard pool and rooftop deck. Natalie was the most helpful host I've ever encountered - super responsive and went out of her way to answer questions, help make reservations, etc. We would highly recommend this property!

We have been renting vacation rentals in various destinations for over 15 years, now & I have to say that EVERY PART of this experience has been the BEST one EVER! And that is saying a LOT since we have had some spectacular hosts & stayed in some absolutely beautiful homes! The villa is absolutely gorgeous. The photos do not do it justice. They do a good job displaying how beautiful it is, but they cannot convey the FEELING you get standing in the courtyard or enjoying the rooftop deck. Most days, I was torn on which spot I wanted to sit & read. The whole place was clean & had everything we needed except maybe a grill would have been nice. The outside is SO unassuming...it was quite funny seeing our kids (13 & 16) as we pulled up. They were thoroughly unimpressed - it didn't improve much as we first entered the villa. LOL! But THEN I opened the doors leading to the courtyard, kitchen & pool. Their eyes were as big as saucers & they kept asking is this ALL for us??? That was when I told them, but WAIT! There's MORE! & we went up to the rooftop deck. We stayed for 8 days & it got even better each day! Soco is just 2 doors down & VERY delicious for breakfast & lunch. Great coffee, too. It is a very walkable area & quite safe. In fact, I felt safer walking around Merida after dark than I would in DFW where we live. Now...let me tell you about Natalie. She was honestly like having our own personal tour guide. She answered every question, gave me tons of advice, tips &

This house is absolutely incredible. The location was absolutely ideal and the host maintained constant communication with me. I have had the pleasure of staying at numerous accommodations on VRBO and Air B&Bs, and I must say, this particular one has secured the top spot on my list. This house is absolutely amazing and you will be more than satisfied with your stay.
