Casona Nikte’ Boutique Senior Living is a community aimed at those 55 or over and looking to make Mérida their home away from home. Whether you are looking to spend a month, a year, or more, Casona Nikte’ combines the best that Yucatán has to offer with 24-hour bilingual support.

Unlike hotels or rentals, Casona Nikte’ has created a space where care and community are its guiding values.

Located in a grand 19th-century casona in Mérida’s Santiago neighborhood, Casona Nikte’ offers all of the comforts of home and then some. Its carefully manicured open spaces and pool are perfect for yoga, meditation, painting or simply hanging out with friends.

But aside from beautiful surroundings, what really makes Casona Nikte’ stand out is its friendly 24-hour support system spearheaded by a team of highly qualified nurses and concierges.

Another important service offered by Casona Nikte’ is its legal concierge service which assists its guests in connecting with specialists to help take care of complicated necessities like the procurement of resident visas. 

“What people need most sometimes is a friendly, helping hand and we are committed to always being there when we are needed. This support is not limited to medical needs, as we place great emphasis on emotional wellbeing through a holistic model which encourages both fun and growth, ” says Marifer Gómez Crespo, Casona Nikte’s manager.

Another key element of life at Casona Nikte’ is their emphasis on helping their guests experience Yucatán’s culture through day trips, cooking classes, and everyday interactions with the facility’s staff.

“Embracing Yucatán’s rich culture is part of what makes living here so special,” says Geancarlo Marín, Casa Nikte’s director and a veteran of the hospitality industry with more than 20 years’ experience. “There is so much to see do and taste, and we are always up to organize day trips to beaches, archaeological sites, or local markets.”

Part of embracing local culture means being exposed to the best of the region’s cuisine, though alternative options are also always available. Three meals and two snacks are offered daily, all prepared with both nutrition and flavor in mind.
