TWIN RETREATS IN COLOUR || Casa Amate Brings Playful Pink and Serene Blue to Yucatán’s Capital
Not all journeys are about ticking landmarks off a list.
Some are about finding places that invite you to slow down, connect, and imagine a new rhythm of life. In Mérida, two sister properties, Casa Amate 61 and Casa Amate 62, offer precisely that, pairing architectural heritage with a lifestyle tailored for the modern nomad.
Each Casa Amate property has its own personality, yet they share the same design language. Casa Amate 61, cloaked in warm pink tones, radiates energy and playfulness, while Casa Amate 62 wears a dreamy shade of blue, evoking calm and reflection. Together, they create a dialogue of contrasts that echo the balance sought by today’s creative traveller: stimulation and serenity, community and solitude, heritage and innovation.
The spaces were brought to life through a careful restoration of century-old buildings, where vernacular Yucatecan architecture meets the clean lines of Art Deco. Interiors curated by Mex&Co Studio Design highlight artisanal work with tropical woods, handwoven textiles, and clay vessels. The result feels both timeless and of the moment, celebrating local craftsmanship in an atmosphere where history and modernity coexist with ease.
What sets Casa Amate apart is its emphasis on cultural immersion. Guests are encouraged to join yoga sessions in the open-air courtyards, watch films under the stars, or participate in workshops such as floral arranging. Digital nomads will find dedicated coworking areas designed for focus. At the same time, those seeking connection can join community gatherings over coffee, cocktails, or bread fresh from the in-house bakery at Casa Amate 62.
For those wanting to explore beyond the walls, the Amate Experiencias program offers guided excursions to cenotes, archaeological sites, and hidden corners of Mérida known only to locals. The properties’ volunteer teams provide personalized recommendations, ensuring each guest experiences the city through an authentic lens.
More than hotels, Casa Amate 61 and 62 are destinations in themselves; places where comfort, culture, and creativity converge. Whether swinging in a hammock above the courtyard pool or sketching notes from a coworking table, guests discover that in Mérida, the art of travel can also be the art of living.
