Ok, it's officially Casa de Luz, the house down the block from the hotel, but it's wonderful nonetheless. Well appointed, designed, and built, the house has everything you need for a pleasant visit to the nice colonial town of Merida. Kudos to Tom for a job well done.

We visited Merida last year and were looking for a place to relax while at the same time immersing ourselves in the charm and culture that makes Mexico and Merida special. The Luz was ideal for that. It's maintained the colonial charm and warmth that makes this part of the Yacatan special. If your looking for a "five star" resort... More

It is very hard to find something positive to write about the Luz - that has not been written already! It is a great little hotel, in a great location, where the owners have pretty much thought of everything that will make your stay special. The Luz is right in the heart of the old city and finding it is... More

Our charming room and entire stay at the Luz was simply-Paradise! Finding it-well that's a little more difficult, but once we did, we were reluctant to leave! Kitchen space overlooking the roof top balcony- even came with it's own reliable roof top cat (if you are like us, and feed her!) The pool and other facilities were great and the... More

As the many positive reviews detail, Luz en Yucatan has a lot to offer and offers it very well. My wife and I visit Merida several times a year on business and after many years of trying different hotels, we now stay only at Luz. The hotel's central location makes it simple to move around the city, fully equipped kitchens... More

The apartment we stayed in was spotlessly clean the large dispenser of purified water was a great touch. I also appreciated that we could have the large windows open and because of the plants outside we still had privacy, I don't like to use air con if I can get away with it so this coupled with the fan was...

We've experienced Luz en Yucatan twice, once in February, and again just two weeks ago. What makes this small hotel so amazing is the perfect combination of ambiance, comfort, location, and staff. The owners and their assistants make you feel as though you are a friend of the family, and are there to help with suggestions, tours, or just to... More

My wife and I always try and look for places with character when we are traveling. This gets harder and harder these days as places seem to get more and more generic. Well not the Luz. It just oozes with character. The minute I walked in the front door I was blown away. This place is grand, high ceilings open... More

Recently stayed a few nights here, staff was very friendly. The pool area where our room was located is a very neat cozy enclosed area with lots of plants etc, very cool place to say. Complimentary booze stand by reception was a bonus. Location was great, in the Santa Lucia area, walking distance to centro and all the shops, easily... More

A warm and friendly welcome is always nice when away from home but Luz en Yucatan does it with such a laid back but efficient way. Entering the pristine and well-cared for property bodes a lovely stay. After checking in, our family of four marveled at the attractive and homey interior of the property. We loved the set up of...
