Merida - Great place, great city.
My wife and I were in Merida for a month. We thoroughly enjoyed the city and the accommodation was superb (conveniently located and comfortable). Always looked forward to returning to our place after our exploration of the city.

Awesome little gem
We stayed a week here at Casa Ambar and it was awesome! Property is as described, neighborhood is quiet with the exception of nearby construction during the day but not enough to disturb your peace at the pool or patio. Walking distance to the plaza, many restaurants and shopping or you can also call a Didi which is very inexpensive. I would highly recommend Casa Ambar and would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Merida.

Host, ken and mgr Rosalinda could not have been more responsive or helpful. Lots of Vrbo rentals lack comfy seating but not this one. Most appreciated. Pool is great.

Great location, city oasis.
With its attractive courtyard and pool, quiet neighbourhood, and its location, only a 20 minute walk to the main plaza and a 5 minute walk to Santiago plaza this is a great property. I would have wanted a little more communication ahead of time about the check in process, but other than that it was all fine.

Nice location. Quiet for sleeping. Great property manager
A friend and I stayed for 1 month. It is about 6 blocks from parque central and 4 blocks from Santiago square. Here we could get our fresh fruits and vegetables. Also there is a grocery story, bakery and restaurant. Eating at the mercado is also a treat. We found it a good area to stay, quiet for sleeping and not in the middle of the touristy area. We felt safe. The manager-Rosalinda was VERY responsive to every question and concern. Gardening and cleaning staff were wonderful. The house interior could use some fresh paint and updating. It was hard to always get hot water to the kitchen.

Exactly as expected
Few things for owner: garage door opposite lock tumbler stopper at floor is difficult to open and close, but must be closed for deadbolt to operate smoothly. (2) We got a little rain on night and noticed a small leak from skylight in living room. (3) Kitchen sink faucet difficult to fully turn off. (4) No hot water in master shower,but good in sink. AC in middle bedroom very noisy - may be a sign of future failure. Overall - beautiful property, backyard is beautiful, and we would stay again.

Lovely house and backyard.
We had a great stay. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool in the very private and beautiful back yard. The house was large enough for our family and everyone had their own bathroom. Our property manager, Ken, was super responsive to our needs. Any questions we had were answered within minutes. This was our first time in Merida. Our Uber drivers had a hard time finding the correct address. However the taxi drivers had no issues. Our property manager helped us direct the Uber drivers. We learned the plumbing in Merida is a little delicate, compared to what we are used to and were told that no toilet paper could go in toilets and should be put in the trash instead.The house is beautiful inside but the neighborhood, as most of the neighborhoods, seemed a little rundown. They were very safe. We walked around at night and had no issues. My daughter lost her wallet and it was returned to her with everything in tact- including her cash!All around great stay!

Perfect Location in Historic Centre (Centro Historico)
We closed out 2022 and began 2023 in this great location. We were on vacation and this lovely home was a perfect "home" base for us. It is walking distance to "Plaza Grande" and "Parque Santiago", both great places to walk around and find great food. The listing is very accurate and all of the amenities made it feel like our home. At night we would unwind by jumping in the pool and relaxing. If/When we go back to Merida, this property will definitely be on top of our list for places to stay.
On a side note, we had an issue (Leak) in one of the restrooms that caused small puddle of water. Nothing major but when I notified the property manager, she responded promptly and notified us that someone would stop by the next day to repair it the leak. I was very impressed being that we called on NYE and I was expecting to leave a message BUT she answered and explained the "issue". Again, that was not a major factor in us enjoying our stay. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your property and hope we can do it again.

Great location and owner
Overall we enjoyed this property! The backyard was beautiful and the pool and table tennis were great to retreat from the afternoon heat. The bedrooms were good size and having newer furniture in the living room with a TV that had preprogrammed streaming apps was a great touch. Lastly, the owner was very accommodating and quickly worked through some issues we found and even made an adjustment to our stay that he was not required to and was most appreciated. Ken also provided a water cooler tank so we had fresh water upon arrival.
That being said, we had some challenges but they might have been more us being first timers in the Yucatan than what is fair to criticize the owner or his property. We were cautioned to throw away our toilet paper instead of flushing because the house is on septic and not public water works which is likely more of a Yucatan standard but it was a little jarring to encounter that. There is only A/C in the bedrooms and the living area was always very hot and humid so we could not spend time in the living room without fans running full speed and even then it was not a relaxing space so we retreated to the bedrooms or pool most of the time. The garage was a very tight fit for our Dodge Journey which is a small SUV but it worked after folding in the sideview mirrors. The shower off the master suite took about 10 minutes for the water to be warm enough to shower. Again, these are likely standards of the Yucatan but something worth noting from an American.

A great place in a great location
Wow, just Wow! Even our kids said, "this is great!" when we entered.
The pictures don't do this place justice. It is really a great place. And the location is awesome as well. The home is really nice, lots of attention to detail. The home is laid out well with the kitchen opens out to the enclosed backyard. Which of course has a pool.
It truly is an oasis, with palm trees and other cool plantings. Birds visit the yard in the morning.
Location wise, perfect. Calli 63 is a quiet street at this end, plenty of parking. It's an 8 block walk to Plaza Grande, the central plaza of Centro Merida. Lots going on here and the oldest cathedral in the americas, Catedral de Mérida - San Ildefonso.
A 4 block walk to the north and you get to Plaza Santiago. This is more of a neighborhood plaza also with lots going on. Live bands and dancing, vendors, we even saw a Mayan performance with music and dancing.
Our family of 6 never felt cramped. Sitting on the back patio was very peaceful.
The only complaint was the hot water was slow to get to the master bathroom and was short lived. This seems to be a Mexico thing though. We stayed at 3 places and they were all iffy on hot water. Actually Casa Amber was the best when it came to hot water.
And the TV had lines on the screen, but we aren't really a TV family so, it didn't bother us.
The host was very responsive, though we didn't have any real issues.
If we could give this place 6 stars, we would.

Stay away! Deceiving listing! Not comfortable!
The pictures are of low resolution, and only show you what they want you to see. This is by far and without a doubt the dirtiest place I have ever stayed in!
Bathrooms were NOT clean! There spots around the toilet on the floor from a man standing up and peeing! This is disgusting! The shower head in the master and guest restrooms are clogged up with calcification and green mildew! The shower knobs have deposits from the water on them and they feel sticky! Imagine having to turn the water off after you are done bathing and having to wash your hands right after! Disgusting!!!!!
Master bath had a fowl smell coming from it, and we had to keep the door closed because it was a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Kitchen: the oldest utensils, plates that I have ever seen still in use. The sponge left for us to clean the dishes, should not be in use anymore. We had to go buy a new one! Kitchen towels were old and smelly. Glass cups were turned up, so naturally had a couple of bugs inside and dirt. That's why we had to wash them.
There was no napkins/napkin roll! The first VRBO not to have one! We bought one and left it! Also the third day, a Napkin roll appeared magically, so we had 2 now! Privacy anyone? Again the first VRBO to not provide sugar for coffee. There an open bag of sweetener inside the fridge, but no sugar. This is Mexico! Coffee without sugar is a big no no!
The paint inside the house is all chipping, the colors are no longer vibrant like the pictures show you! The rooms are outdated and the light fixtures on the nightstands are extremely old. I am ok with old and rustic, with a little charm. But the kind of old I am talking about is the way over used, down to the knobs that you have to play with them a couple of minutes before you can turn the lights on or off! The hand towels smelled bad. The bath towels were clean! The shower floor was horrible. Every shower had a clear plastic anti-slip rug. You could see the mold right under it, it's see through! We showered with our flip flops on!
Patio furniture is dirty, old and poop stained! Walls are poop stained from birds and animals.
Construction going on on both sides of the house with workers peeping in as you are enjoying the pool. The AC's were noisy and ceiling fans too! Very stressful place! Clearly mismanaged and neglected. We found out that someone accessed the property twice during our stay while we were gone for the day! This is a breach of privacy and no communication offered

Christmas 2022
The house is lovely. The garden and pool were beautiful and the ping pong table out in the pavilion was a great surprise. It rained for about half of our stay so we ended up using that ping pong table quite a bit. It was a fun way to unwind after our day trips around the area. Don’t miss Ruta Puuc, well worth the drive! I highly recommend this property if you are planning a trip to Merida.

Family Thanksgiving Trip
This property is beautiful and feels like an authentic Mexican casa. As other reviews have said the air conditioning is only in the bedrooms but the back yard and pool are so nice we were rarely too warm. Everything was well stocked including a blender for piña coladas. Don’t expect a sterile, hotel type experience. This is a historic home and mosquitoes find the little cracks and crevices but the positives far outweighed the negatives. The location was close enough to walk to the plaza grande and markets. It was fairly quiet at night too.

Disappointed
The positive: Check-in was super easy and they were kind enough to allowed us to drop off our luggage prior to the check-in time. Thank you. The other one was that the rooms all had AC.
The negative: Not sure where to start. Arriving we noticed the house was not cleaned. the bathrooms looked like they were cleaned but they were dirty where you sit down. :-( The pool was very dirty. this is very disappointed because someone came into the house without prior notification and I didn't appreciate someone going inside while we were not there or at least they should've given us a heads up. A dirty bag with clothes was left in the entrance room couch. Not good. The floors were not cleaned. To make it worse the front room which I don't recommend anyone staying because literally you hear all the cars/trucks passing by and you can not sleep at all. Well both beds had the sheets dirty. I'm most positive of that, for one the bed sheets are super old, they lost part of the colors and I have a feeling they were dirty and were not washed or changed from when the last time they rented the house. The bed sheets were turned where I think the last person turned it around and one of the pillow case was also flipped over and the other one was the correct way it's supposed to be so that only tells me the people that stayed in both beds did that because they wanted to make sure they were sleeping on the pillow cases that no one slept on. Now, where the house is, not for 2 girls to walk on their own. Now don't get me wrong it's very safe but some streets are dark because some houses are falling apart and no one is living there so no light but for 1 girl or 2 to walk at night I would feel a little scared but we never had any issues walking. I did feel safe. It is a good 15 min walk about 9 blocks from the main center of Merida. I'm very very disappointing because of the money that we paid. I think a hotel would've been way better. As one of my sisters said the house has a lot of potential but the cleaining is the # 1 HUGE issue that they need to fix.. This is why it was very disappointed because I was really looking forward to this house based on the pictures.

Nice place to stay in Merida
The property was as described, large home with a beautiful outdoor space with pool on a quiet street. The bedrooms were comfortable with A/C, however no A/C in the common areas. There is a garage, but street parking was also plentiful. We were walking distance from pretty much everywhere we went in the Centro area, and a couple of blocks away from Parque Santiago with convenient shopping and the Mercado. The living room was very comfortable with smart TV. It was very convenient to have a washer/dryer. The kitchen was equipped with basics, newer nice appliances but dinnerware, glasses and flatwear were mismatched and the toaster did not work well. We never met the property manager, but check in was easy with a lock box containing keys to the house. Overall, we were very pleased with our accommodations and it served our purposes well.

Highly recommended
The house was everything we hoped for. It was clean, roomy and spacious. There were plenty of areas to gather. We are two couples and really enjoyed the patio. We spent mornings and evenings there. The beds were comfortable, as was the living room furniture. The pool was beautiful, though we didn’t use it much because the weather was a bit cool and wet, unusual for February. The location of the house is good, with the Plaza Grande only eight or nine blocks away. We encountered some minor problems, such as not being able to change the volume on the TV, a room safe that was locked open so that we couldn’t use it, and having difficulty with the check-in process. But overall, it was a wonderful experience that we would recommend to others looking to spend some time in wonderful Mérida.

Well Equipped Relaxing stay in Merida
We were 4 people for 16 nights. Weather was wonderful and gave us the opportunity to spend much of our time as a group on the outdoor terrazza, which we all loved. Pool is not heated so was chilly however one in our group went in regularly and enjoyed it. House has all the basic needs, great washer/dryer, good and fast internet and TV had local channels as well as Netflix. We found ourselves looking forward to returning to the house after a day out. And cooked dinner there four times - found the kitchen to be well equipped. We had some communication problems with the property manager but nothing critical. Would recommend this property to friends.

Great location. Beautiful outdoor area. Large colonial home with interior garden areas and wonderful air circulation! AC in each bedroom.

Family with kids- the best stay
We are a family with 2 kids 1 year and 4 . We stayed the whole summer 8 weeks . We enjoyed the house very much , specially the pool and the round table outside . The summer is hot but the house us fresh and the mosquito nets keeps all the bugs out if you close the doors. The house is well equipped with kitchen gadgets and a nice fridge .The place was big enough to have the kids play in different areas . The manager Rosalinda and her team are good and fast on solving any problem . The Centro historical sites and mercados are easy to walk , but not with a stroller, once you get close to the main plaza and cathedrals , it gets busy with cars. We used Ubers all the time , they are safe, fast and low cost. Is easy to buy a Mexican phone chip , the oxxo has them and that way you can install the Uber application . The neighbourhood is quiet , no buses or car traffic at this side . Theres also a supermarket and Centenario park 10 min walking . We had a wonderful stay

exellent sejour
très bonne communication avec propriétaire et conciergerie, excellente réactivité lors des problèmes rencontrés. Maison trés spacieuse, calme,confortable. Petit bémol quant à l'entretient de la piscine qui est au demeurant plus grande que les photos ne la montre. Je conseille Ambar home pour de bonnes vacances!
