It was perfect!Close to the downtown activities but without the noise. (A big plus for us).House was squeaky clean. The communication with the owners was top notch. We LOVED it! Best VRBO we have stayed at, so far. The owners drafted an entire Merida guidebook which really helped us get started with what we wanted to prioritize as we were only staying for a week!

Quick stay - but should have made it longer!

This property was absolutely better than advertised - IT WAS GORGEOUS Check in was a breeze, amenities spotlessly clean, well appointed, super comfortable bedroom & the surrounding neighborhood is so quiet (so much more than my home in the US).Highly recommend this place and will definitely want to stay here again when I return to further enjoy Mérida!!!I lived this

A charming place

The Casa Gatita is a lovely little place. The barrio Santiago is a great place to stay to enjoy Merida. Many places of interest nearby. There were problems with the water, but Beto handled them immediately, so we didn't mind. We recommend this place highly.

Casa Gatita Stay

It was an awesome experience. We were close - basically a stone thrown away - of Parque Santiago, Santa Lucía, the Plaza Central and everything we wanted to do. The place has a homey feeling and is absolutely gorgeous!

Casa Gatita perfect for a stay in Merida

I was in Merida for a getaway in which I sought to explore the town and the broader area. Casa Gatita was perfect relative to my needs. The place is a fully renovated colonial home. Everything in it was modern and comfortable. The plunge pool was particularly excellent after a hot day or exploration. I would stay again and recommend the place to anyone who seeks a home-like refuge while in Merida.

Casa Gatita

Excellent house for a couple. Close to Mercado de Santiago and easy walking distance to centro restaurants. Garage is a certain plus for those with a car. Cleaning and pool service bi- weekly was perfect for our needs. Highly recommend Casa Gatita!

A great little oasis

The home was well equiped and comfortable. If it was available for longer we would have gladly stayed. The managment team was awesome to deal with, I would and will use them in the future. Santiago area where the home is, is a lovely walkable area of centro. We love going to the local square for Marcasitas and ice cream.

Our Home For a Month

The home was a bit smaller than we had anticipated but plenty of room for the two of us. Nice layout, comfortable furniture. The service was excellent. Any time we needed something or had a questions, someone was there almost before we put the phone down. We would have like a bigger yard, but again it was big enough for us to have quiet meals outside next to the pool. All in all, we felt completely at home. Easy walk to Santiago markets and Plaza Grande. We want to stay againl

Our stay at the house cat

We loved the house. We enjoyed our time there. It was close to everywhere we wanted to be. Uber got us around everywhere we were right in Centro . We loved being able to wash our cloths. I want the same exact washer and dryer it works so good. What ever we needed it was there at the house. Customer service was excellent. We will be back to stay again. If not this house other houses with this owner. Thank you so much. We enjoyed our vacation

Great little house

It’s a very comfortable one bedroom. The main floor is a garage, an entrance hall, one common room of kitchen, living and a courtyard with a small pool. Upstairs one bedroom and bath. The Santiago market 2 blocks away is good for fresh fruit and veg as well as market restaurants. It’s perfect for a couple. The pool is small but was great for a dip to cool off on a warm afternoon. The kitchen was well equipped including decent knives! Coffee, salt, pepper and olive oil were provided. (It’s always frustrating to have to buy those things for a short stay) The garage is handy, only compact cars will fit. The online guidebook they provide is the best I’ve ever seen for a rental! I recommend this house and the Burro y Flauta team.

Fantastic!

Casa Gatita is hands down one of the BEST vacation homes I have stayed in. I worked remotely for the week of my stay and can say everything went seamlessly. WIFI was always excellent. Manager Beto kept in constant contact with me to ensure I was comfortable and answered any questions or concerns I had. I can't say enough positive things about the Burro y Flauta team. You are within walking distance to several restaurants and bakeries. I highly recommend Pan Elena Vales. I purchased fresh pastries from them daily. About a 5 min walk from the casa. IMO, the casa is perfect for a solo travel, or a couple. Lots of space between the two levels, and I loved the decor of the entire. I appreciated all of the unique art and furniture throughout. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom itself was extremely spacious. Also, it was nice to have a half bath on the ground level, in additon to the main shower/restroom down the hall from the bedroom. Cooking was a breeze. Excellent coffee maker. The AC units and ceiling fans were a godsend. Not to mention the wonderful private pool. The laundry room was perfect for preparing my clothes for my trip home after my 2 weeks in Quintana Roo and the Yucatan. I would 1000% percent stay at Casa Gatita again, as well as any other property ran by this company. They are fantastic people. My one recommendation for improvement would be to have the sectional cushions re-stuffed. Parts of the sectional have a sinking aspect to the seat.

8 days in May

My husband and I had a wonderful time in Merida and staying at Casa Gatita made it feel like home. It is a beautiful home and very well appointed and maintained. The location is great and within walking distance or a quick DiDi ride (like uber) to everything downtown. It's also on a quiet street which was nice for a good night's rest. We had everything we needed. The pool was great to take a dip in on hot afternoons and having the air conditioning both upstairs and down helped when the weather got really hot. The management company was very helpful with everything we needed and provided lots of excellent information about activities and dining in Merida as well as tours. We highly recommend Casa Gatita!
