Casa Azul Hotel Monumento Historico was constructed in the years leading up to World War I, which was an era defined by its economic prosperity, artistic expression, and political intrigue.

Casa Azul Hotel Monumento Historico is a magnificent house located a few steps away from historically significant avenue Paseo de Montejo. Built in the 19th century, the hotel was declared a Historical Monument for its superb preservation and restoration of its original architecture. The residence has become an icon showcasing the rich heritage of the Porfirian age in Yucatan of the 18th and 19th centuries. Under the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz, the boom of the henequen plant gave the area a new source of wealth and prosperity to the community which celebrated with the construction of several new beautifully designed properties, including the Casa Azul Hotel Monumento Historico.
