Casa Tres Dragones has been featured in Architectural Digest and on the Fundación BAI Annual Home Tour. The house is located in the heart of Mérida’s centro histórico just two blocks from Santa Lucia, two blocks from Santa Ana and five blocks from the main square. Decorated with first class furnishings and art, Casa Tres Dragones represents the highest standard of living for people who demand the best when they travel.

With soaring colonial beamed ceilings 7 meters high, original pasta tiles, and tall cedar doors, Casa Tres Dragones retains the colonial charm that makes many Mérida homes magical but has been updated with all modern conveniences. Lovingly restored by acclaimed architect Victor Cruz of Taller Estilo Architectura, it has over 525 square meters of living space and includes 5 bedrooms and 5 full bathrooms.

You are welcomed to the house by our very own Mexican cantina decorated with unique art entirely sourced from México. The cantina has all you will need to entertain including multiple beverage refrigerators, an ice maker, and all the tools of the trade for you to become the resident tabanero. The cantina adjoins the media room with theater-style seating, fun art from the world of entertainment, and a massive television with sound system.

The open plan kitchen is fully equipped for any chef with a 6 burner stove and griddle and all the equipment you could desire to make gourmet meals. The dining room table is a massive live-edge table, which comfortably seats 10…more if you are friendly. You can enjoy full views of the pool and garden area from the comfort of the dining room.

The two bedrooms on the first floor of the restored house featured “hanging” king-sized beds. These beds are a combination of a hammock and a mattress bed that sways softly as you sleep.

Each room in the restored house has original pasta tiles, original vigas (beams) and mostly original doors. The house dates from 1911 and you can feel the history of the home while enjoying the comfort of modern living.

The back “casita” is newly constructed and includes the master bedroom suite, a fully equipped private gym, and a second master bedroom suite upstairs. The ensuite master bathroom features a soaker hammered copper bathtub and hammered copper sinks. The patio area features a one of kind grill and smoker designed and built by artist George Samuleson along with a huge pool capable of cooling off a large family. You could even swim short laps in the pool and journey under the beautiful feature wall and into one of the best home gyms you are likely to encounter.

The fifth bedroom and ensuite bathroom are on the second floor of the “restored” house and are accessible via a spiral staircase. There are two laundry rooms, one off the patio area and one next to the 5th bedroom. The fifth bathroom services the common areas and is accessible from the gym and the patio areas.

Most of the art and furniture in Casa Tres Dragones was custom-made for the home from local artisans and artists or artists from México at large. Each room is its own unique space that takes advantage of the soaring ceilings and open spaces while facilitating the movement of even the largest groups.

Rates include daily maid service, pool cleaning three times a week, and gardening service as necessary. One secured parking spot is reserved in the parking lot just across the street. All utilities, including electricity, are included.

You will be able to access the entire home, with the exception of the office and certain storage areas and will not share the space with any other visitors.

You can use the deluxe kitchen equipment and appliances including a Jura coffee machine to prepare a satisfying breakfast to start your day. Coffee, creamer, and sweeteners are provided. In addition, some beers, beverages, and snacks are provided so you can start your vacation immediately upon arriving — no need to run to the nearest store for these basics. You can also purchase wine and liquors from our fully stocked bar at cost or hire our concierge to shop for all the things you desire to make your vacation perfect.

Don’t worry about the basics in the bathrooms either. We provide hair dryers, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and high-quality towels, face cloths, and hand towels.

High-speed wifi is available throughout the house with a strong consistent signal. Netflix access, multiple Bluetooth speakers, and an integrated home sound system are provided for your entertainment needs.
