What an amazing and unexpectedly charming place! 
This replica Roma Villa was built by the slightly eccentric, friendly Owner, whom I believe is a local Professor of Ancient History (English was purely via Google Translate which, in itself, added to the effect!). 
Having navigated Don Alvaro (I'm not sure we ever went the same way twice, but its a sweet village) the drive up the drive to the Vila is pure Gladiator - Think Cyprus tree drive (without the hand brushing the corn!). 
If you've been to Pompey you'll get the idea: You enter via the Pluvium (a small courtyard entrance hall with a hole in the roof that allows any rain into the small central pool). 
Check-in at the office off the Pluvium whilst listening to classical music and looking at real and replica artefacts and decorations. 
Then through to the Atrium - large courtyard with garden and rooms along the walls. There are twelve rooms, ours was spacious and clean with a large shower room - small TV with no UK Channels that we could find, but Hey, the Romans didn't watch TV! (Wifi only in the Dining Room or on the Veranda)
It's quite an experience.
There is no food available other than the continental breakfast - however there's an honesty Bar (beers, water, soft drinks in the fridge) and there are good cooking facilities available for use off the large dining room. 
The pool looks out over the Plain and the setting is generally magnificent.
So - this is a pretty basic place - it's certainly not a 5* luxury hotel, but that's its charm. 
Merida with all of its Roman ruins, along with all of the restaurants etc is only 10 mins away, parking is easy there (ask the Owner for tips too)
Treat yourself. After all it's not expensive and you won't find anywhere else like it. 
I hope you will agree with me, it's the perfect place to set yourself up for a visit to Merida.
I've given Average Service Rating because there's nothing to expect after check-in other than a friendly face and of course help if required.
