Quinta Montes Molina

Wow, what a treat! This house is incredibly well maintained with a lot of the original furniture (looking almost brand new). The staff was also very nice and were happy to answer any questions. We really felt transported into the era and were mind boggled on how the owner’s could have acquired and transported such beautiful pieces of furniture. Definitely recommend!

One of the most beautiful houses I have ever seen. Also the stuff is very helpful. If you are interestet in how all that beautiful houses look from the inside, this is the place to go! Chandeliers from Florence, Steinway Piano, Art Deco windows... and everything put in place with much love and respect.

Beautiful furnished house of the first years of the 20th century. A must see in.Merida and entrance fee is decent. Have a look at the gift shop. They have quality souvenirs for reasonable prices and it supports the museum.

Interesting history, beautifully- maintained home, informative staff--all make for a great way to spend an hour+ in Merida. Part of the tour is guided, and the guides will speak more slowly for those of us with less than fluent Spanish (also offer to do so in English if preferred). At about $5US per person, a true bargain. If you're forecast to have a rainy day, this is a perfect indoor activity.

Beautiful mansion, well kept, attentive personnel well stocked gift shop.
Lovely location for weddings and events, fully contrasting the old vs modern.
Amazing vision of owners!

Disliked seeing all the different styles of furniture, outlets, changes in the facility ignoring the old and adapting new.
Would have liked seeing how it was originally and not as it had been adapting through the years.

This is a must if you are in Paseo Montejo or Mérida.
The house has such a rich history, and they managed to salvage so many things, that it's like time traveling when you go in. You get to see how people lived during the splendor of Henequén times, and the tour is very well organized to ensure social distancing.
If you have watched Downtown Abbey, this is the small Yucatán version of that house.
The store also has so many cute souvenirs, it's worth visiting. You can go in the store without going into the museum.
