is not one of those noisy hotels, but a very private home where our goal is to make each person feel welcome and feel at home... a place where you can just be yourself and unwind. Although the main house is furnished with antiques and objets d'art, the atmosphere is anything but stuffy. We strive for a relaxed, comfortable, laid back atmosphere where you will look forward to coming back again and again. When we say our house is your house, we mean it. The two guest rooms are large and spacious with high ceilings. They are new but have the look of being original to the main house. They are decorated with antiques, oriental rugs and large iron beds with extremely comfortable mattresses. The rooms are air conditioned for your comfort but also have ceiling fans for those lazy afternoon naps. Each room has a large private bathroom that is very American but has the look of old Mexico with marble showers with seats, hand painted Mexican tiles and sinks. Also included in each room are bathrobes, sarongs, cable TV and a CD player for your use during your stay with us. The gardens are lovely and lush with equal amounts of warm Mexican sunshine and shade. Large banana trees, palms, and tropical flowers, along with three large water gardens, give the appearance of a tropical rain forest. The gardens are completely walled in for your privacy and security. The pool is located in the center of the garden and is a great place for working on that all over bronzed Mexican tan. For your added convenience, the pool is available 24 hours a day for those of you who like a late, late night swim. make your next vacation or business trip one to cherish with lasting memories for years to come. for more photos, our amenities, policies, and rates.

and welcome to Los Arcos B B. Hidden away in the heart of Merida´s busy Centro section is a tropical, enchanted, and very private oasis just waiting for you to discover. Spend a lazy day by the pool enjoying the tropical Mexican sun while gentle breezes dance in the palm branches overhead. The main house dates from the 1800´s and has been lovingly restored. This early colonial home has 18 foot to 30 foot high ceilings, Yucatan marble floors and is decorated with antiques from our many years of travel. The garden guest rooms are separate from the main house for that feeling of total privacy and security. You enter this area through large iron gates adjacent to the pool into your own private courtyard with the look and feel of Old Mexico. Los Arcos Bed and Breakfast is one of Merida´s best kept secrets and quite frankly, we like it that way. After just one night´s stay in this magical oasis, we feel sure you will agree. Our returning guests (now friends) seem possessive about THEIR rooms so please make arrangements far in advance. Discover Merida, the Yucatan and Los Arcos B B. Come by yourself or bring a group of friends and make your vacation a 7 day party. We hope to see you soon. for additional information. Click on any picture for an enlargement. Copyright © 2003nbsp
