Fantastic Gem!
I can’t say enough great things about this place! My wife and I felt like every need we could have had been considered and accounted for. The location can’t be beat, and the concierge services were wonderful. Highly recommend!

Merida trip
We loved Casa Jirafa — it is such a cool and cozy house, especially the plunge pool area. It was also located in a superb area and was close to nearly everywhere we wanted to go during our short trip. Highly recommend for anyone traveling to Merida!

Casa Jirafa
An excellent property and well located. The room was cool given the high ceilings and the plunge pool was a welcome addition particularly after a long day of activities/walking. The check-in process was hassle free. The room also seems to be very good value.

Incredible stay!
Everything we needed and more! The place is perfect, location is amazing, and the hosts are the absolute best! They go above and beyond to ensure you have the most incredible stay. Tons of little parks and restaurants/bars nearby. Definitely recommend taking a walk to the Parque la Plancha to wander the paths, see some trains, have a drink, and grab a snack!

Love those giraffes
Great property and very close to all the action but be prepared for lots of street noise and loud music. Burro y Flauta team very helpful and prompt with replies, and very pleasant. Shout out to Beto for helping us navigate our out of town excursions! Cleaning team top notch!

Sweet!
Perfectly located just a block from Santa Lucia, this property is absolutely lovely. The cold beer in the fridge was a nice touch! Burro y Flauta can have groceries in stock for you on arrival with prior arrangement. They have a friendly, professional, communicative team—I couldn’t have been happier.

Amazing stay at Casa Jirafa
This was my first time using VRBO. I’ve traveled widely across the world and my stay at Casa Jirafa was in the top 1% of vacation rental experiences. The casita is absolutely beautiful, and looks even better than depicted in pictures, with high ceilings, a cute plunge pool, excellent air conditioning, and little artistic touches here and there. The property is conveniently located within a block of three restaurants serving solid Yucatán food (though check out the nearby markets, Taqueria La Lupita and Wayan’e for the REALLY good stuff) and there’s an awesome gelateria across the street. Loved it so much I’m planning on returning next year!

Amazing Casita!
There is so much to say about Casa Jirafa! The home itself is absolutely beautiful and authentic to the local culture. The pool was such a fun bonus, especially after a long day in the Yucatán heat. The location is perfect for visiting all the must-see locations and everything is within a 10 minute walk, with plenty of restaurants, cantinas, and shopping along the way. But what truly places Casa Jirafa above and beyond any place we have ever stayed are the hosts. They answered every single question leading up to, during and after our stay, promptly and diligently. Their guidebook to Mérida is simply amazing, and they even provided more local favorites (less touristy) per our request. They secured an amazing driver from Mérida to Cancun for us, and even arranged last minute changes to the itinerary for stops at Chichen Itza and Cenote Ikkil. We prefer home rentals when traveling and for the most part have always had great experiences, but the hosts of Casa Jirafa are truly the most amazing and attentive we have ever encountered. Would absolutely recommend and consider again if we return.
