Casa Olivia es una experiencia mágica! Es un lugar que visualmente te teletransporta a partes de Europa y además con el excelente servicio y la hospitalidad característica de Yucatán. Cada detalle es meticulosamente planeado para crear un ambiente único; desde el salón donde exponen obras de arte en colaboración con PIXAN Galería, la sala de lectura con murales que rodean todo el espacio, la fuente que mantiene el agua de la piscina en movimiento, los cuartos con mobiliario y ornamentos de un gusto impecable y la cocina que invita a reunirse con la familia para disfrutar como “en casa”. Recomendado al 100%!!

Beautiful decorated place to get away for vacation. Comfortable, extremely nice owners if you need anything won't disappoint. If you want to stay outside the cancun area and visit Merida, this is a gem. Thank you

I’m from Merida Yucatan, but I don’t live there any more . I wanted to stay in a very authentic place that reminded me of home when I was little . This place exceeded my speciations . Is so beautiful and elegant but is homy and confortable . The worst part was when I left. I’m longing to come back again and again. This will be my home away from home .

Wonderful experience at this lovely boutique hotel. Ultimate class, elegance, service and ambiance. The owner Yvette and her team are impeccable, warm, hospitable, generous and professional. The breakfast each morning was so delicious beautifully presented, the crockery and cutlery beautifully displayed and so classy. The architecture is divine, breathtaking interiors, the plants, the lighting, the furniture, objet d’art, the crystals, the music. Reminiscent of an Aristocratic Italian villa. Couldn’t wish for more. Even the bed is beautifully arranged. It was an unusual experience, never seen anything like it, so exquisite and sophisticated, all restaurants recommendations were spot on! Even the dinner they have cooked for was something else, healthy, delicious. Highly recommended
