Casa Mariposa, Breathtaking 5BR Home of Your Dreams

Casa Mariposa, the 'butterfly house,' can accommodate your entire family with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms as well as its own private pool, washer/dryer, and 2-car garage. This stunning home is centrally located within Merida's historic center, just a few blocks away Santiago Park with its many restaurants featuring local food, art galleries, and shopping. With all of the modern conveniences and elegant design that you expect from Burro y Flauta, it's the perfect place for the family to enjoy.

Situated on a quiet street in Merida's memorable Santiago neighborhood, Casa Mariposa is an architectural marvel with great, iron butterfly wings surrounding its private patio and pool. Renovated an acclaimed local architect, this house will take your breath away as you walk through its entry way.

Casa Mariposa has a beautiful and open flow all the way through the property with views onto its picturesque patio and pool from every room in the house. On the first floor, there is an open concept kitchen, living, and dining area with large sliding glass doors to take in the lovely pool area. The space is tastefully decorated with furniture and art made by local Merida artists. The house has a light and open feel with numerous skylights for ventilation to help keep things cool, as well as mini splits in all of the bedrooms and living room.

The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need if you want to cook. Purified water is provided, as well as coffee. The refrigerator has ice made from purified water as well, so no need to worry. We provide you with basic kitchen equipment and appliances including a toaster and coffee machine so that you can fuel up with a satisfying breakfast to start your day. Coffee, creamer and sugar is provided -- no need to run to the nearest mini-mart for these basics.

The kitchen leads on to the patio with a sitting area where you can find BBQ for those days when you want to grill rather than sampling one of Mérida’s fantastic restaurants. The patio is completely enclosed by high walls for privacy and security so that you can swim and enjoy the house with peace of mind.

The home has a total of 5 separate bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, three of which are located on the ground floor and two upstairs. Each bedroom has a light and airy feeling with colorful iron bed designs inspired by the wings of a butterfly. The three bedrooms on the ground floor have their own built in desks in case you need to get some work done on your trip. Every bedroom has large built in closets for storage.

On the ground floor, there is a master bedroom with a king bed located just near the entry way with an ensuite bathroom. This bathroom is also accessible from the pool area so that you have a convenient bathroom to use while swimming. Just past the living area to the back of the property, there are two more bedrooms connected by an ensuite bathroom. We call this the ‘family suite’ as one of its bedrooms contains a king bed and the other two twin beds better suited for kids.

The master bedroom upstairs also has an ensuite bathroom with a gorgeous view of the pool and patio area in a private sun porch. The upstairs guest room is very spacious and includes bunk beds for the kids as well as an extra day bed.

The house features custom made furniture from Yucatan Custom Furniture, furniture and lighting from Takto as well as antiques and artwork made by Merida’s local artists.

Lovely home close to lots of shopping!
We had a great time at Casa Mariposa. The accommodations were clean, stylish and comfortable. My family really enjoyed the pool, that can be accessed from the living room space and one of the bedrooms. The guidebooks available at the house were very useful. We would highly recommend staying here if you visit Mérida.

Casa Mariposa Review
My family and I had a pleasure of staying at casa mariposa. It’s spacious and accommodated everyone and it was 8 of us. Beto received us and gave us a tour and complimented us with beer in the refrigerator. The neighborhood was calm and quiet and very near el centro. Thank you for everything I hope to be back.

Great location and beautiful house
Enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. Pool was a bit chilly but refreshing in the heat. Very clean and secure, 5 well appointed rooms. Only unfortunate thing was a neighbor dog that barked incessantly from 4 am-6am. Obviously not the owners fault and can’t control everything when in the middle of the city. Overall a very serene and beautiful place.

Stunning!
We had a group of 10 adults travelling for a wedding. The house is plenty spacious and didn’t feel like we were in each other’s space. They have complementary coffee which was great for us. Would definitely recommend!

Casa Mariposa exceeded our expectations
My four friends from college stayed at Casa Mariposa for 4 nights for a wedding weekend in Merida. Casa Mariposa was the perfect place for us. The property is beautiful with large bedrooms, comfy beds, and big bathrooms. The furnishings were really nice with a high-level of detail in design throughout the property. The property managers were very responsive and quick to reply. The location is perfect for exploring everything Merida has to offer. We highly recommend Casa Mariposa.
