México Dream HOME

Latest News: 2010 The Garden niches finally have their Maya occupants and Carnaval is fast approaching! To see what you are missing have a look at last year's Carnaval 2009. At Uxmal you will find night photos of its new state of the art LED Lighting at the Sound and Light show which I visited recently. I have added new guides to the Maya sites of Ek Balam and Calakmul for the more adventurous among you and I have also found an exceptionally good seafood restaurant in Cancun. Have a look at my VIDEOS to experience this vibrant and fascinating country from the comfort of your own armchair.
Better still, come and see it for yourself ! I hope to see you here very soon.

My beautifully restored 2 bedroom house with swimming pool is situated in the Historic Centre of Mérida , the Capital of the Yucatán Peninsular, founded by the Spanish in the 16th Century using the stones from the Pyramid of the existing Ancient Maya city for the Cathedral. Just 10 minutes walk from the centre of town, the house, which dates from 1890, is in the charming Santiago Park area with its daily market, full of character and regular local dancing, as well as its pretty Church.

Santiago Park

Mérida is a perfect base from which to explore the magnificent Mayan pyramids at Chichén-Itzá and Uxmal. Progreso's seafood and sandy beach is only 20 minutes away by road on the Gulf of México. The Winter climate from October to March is around 27C and sunny with 12 hours of light every day. My website has information to help you plan your trip, photos & video-guides of the fascinating places to visit and ideas for things to do across the whole Yucatán:- You can watch thousands of Flamingos in their natural habitat at Celustun, swim in the warm Caribbean and relax on world-class talcum powder beaches at Playa del Carmen, and Tulum, explore Haciendas , swim in clear underground freshwater lakes (cenotes), see and buy exquisite Maya Art, shop for hammocks and sombreros, visit Archaeological Museums, and watch Traditional Dancing in Mérida's Main Square every Sunday at 1pm, while sipping on your margarita.
