Four houses with documented press credentials, inside one of the best-preserved Spanish walled cities in the Americas. UNESCO 1999.
Campeche is one of the best-preserved Spanish walled cities in the Americas. Inscribed by UNESCO in 1999 for its 17th-century fortification system and the more than 1,000 colonial buildings that survive within its walls. Strict heritage conservation laws have kept the historic center intact — no glass towers, no chains, no homogeneous lobbies.
For travelers who read architecture — who notice limewash from stucco, who can date a balustrade, who travel with a notebook — Casonas MX is curated for that gaze. Four properties have been documented in international press: Casa Japa (Bloomberg, Casa Vogue MX), Casa Ex Templo (XV Bienal Yucateca de Arquitectura 2023), La Casa Verde (ArchDaily 2024, AD 2025), Casa Zotz (heritage stonework reference).
And the wider region rewards the curious — Edzná an hour away, Calakmul four hours into the jungle, the haciendas of the Mérida-Campeche corridor, the museums and bastions and chukum facades of the walled city itself. This is a city to visit slowly, and to leave with your notebook full.

Two to three hours through the eight bastions, the Cathedral, the chukum-walled patios, and the casonas you would not notice from outside. Specialist guide familiar with the conservation history.
A half-day excursion to the Maya site of Edzná. Less crowded than Chichén Itzá, with the Five-Story Plaza and pre-Columbian hydraulic system. Optional specialist guide.
A multi-day excursion (overnight recommended) to the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve — one of the largest recorded Maya cities. UNESCO mixed cultural and natural heritage since 2014.
A morning at Mercado Pedro Sainz de Baranda with a chef, then back to the house to cook a Campechana lunch together. Pan de cazón, papadzules, the long Spanish-Maya conversation that produced this cuisine.
