The Jungle has city views, free WiFi and free private parking, situated in Mérida, 2.9 km from Maderas Volcano.

At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving local cuisine. Vegetarian and vegan options can also be requested.

The property is beautifully located in a real jungle, surrounded by a tropical garden. It’s an oasis to chill and a great place to spot animals. Right there we saw monkeys, giant toads and much more! It’s family owned and the wife of the owner prepared us delicious breakfasts and dinners. They have fruit in their garden for your smoothies, pineapple, papaya, oranges and bananas. Even pancakes were served with real honey not some fake maple sirop. Super recommended!

Offering an extensive and beautiful garden, and rustic décor, Hostal y Restaurante Rancho Merida is located just 1 km from Mérida town centre. Free WiFi access is available in all areas of this lodge.

The rooms will provide you with a fan, terrace and a seating area. Featuring a shower, private bathroom also comes with free toiletries. You can enjoy mountain views and garden view from the room.

The setting and surroundings are lovely with the cabins and rooms in pleasant gardens. Merida is quite remote and peaceful. The range of activities offered was good, we particularly enjoyed the kayak on Rio Istian. The food was tasty and freshly prepared with generous helpings. Our room was clean, with daily cleaning offered. This place had lots of potential and if you are wanting to stay somewhere remote and away from the crowds then it is both.

    The lodges are beautifully located and you can see many birds and even monkeys. Miguel was very helpful in organizing all kinds of tours and always available on whatsapp. The Kayaking was great as was the horseriding and the hiking to Maderas.

    The property is a true eco lodge- it runs on solar power, has filtered water, compost toilets and is built with sustainable and local materials. However there is hot water, fans for your room and is overall comfortable. The staff was so kind and attentive. Our bungalow had a great view of the volcano and valley and the grounds on the property are wild and beautiful.

    The place was quiet and beautiful. The host, Miguel was so kind and very helpful before we even arrive! Breakfast was tasty. We enjoyed our stay in Finca del Sol! This Ecolodge is offering a tour around the place and can also introduce you to the kids of the elementary school they are currently supporting. We love the idea but unfortunately we didn't have time anymore.
