The Mérida Gallery House is a four-bedroom, 4½-bath colonial estate that once hosted the city’s first art gallery, set on one of Centro’s prettiest streets just steps from the main plaza, markets, cafés and parks. Behind its 10-foot antique doors lie three tropical courtyards, 16-foot ceilings, two-foot-thick stone walls and a lagoon-style plunge pool shaded by soaring palms. Each suite offers Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, ceiling fan and private en-suite, while the entire home enjoys pressurised, softened water and reverse-osmosis drinking water. Relax in the art-filled salon, dine beside a garden fountain, or unwind in the orchid pavilion and hammock at the rear of the deep, tree-lined lot. A stocked café nook (unlimited coffee and tea) and a galley kitchen make self-catering easy; breakfast staples await your first morning, and a renowned bakery and the main market are within three blocks. History, art and quiet luxury—welcome to Mérida’s Gallery House.
