Great place for a family reunion
We rented the whole place. The back yard was a terrific gathering place. The house was well appointed. Each unit has plenty of bathrooms and a well stocked kitchen. It is an easy walk to restaurants and entertainment. We really enjoyed our stay!

Have used the facility several times and always satisfied. Property is being refurbished on the outside but was told that in advance and it did not interfere in any way. AC on lower level of main house not the coolest but penthouse and carriage house were perfect. Did miss a couple things from previous stays (bumper pool) but still very good and everyone always loves the penthouse view of Monument Circle

Perfect for large groups!
This place is absolutely beautiful and was the perfect location and venue for our large family gathering for a wedding this past weekend. The game room kept the teens busy and the three different areas gave families privacy to get away. When we were all together, there was plenty of space to gather. I just wish we would have had more time to enjoy this property!

Nice location for a large group
We had 30 people in town for the Indianapolis 500. We were able to split the sleeping arrangements up to keep smaller groups together. The main house kitchen and patio areas were the common meeting area. Also popular was the putting green.

Great property for large gatherings and close to downtown
We rented this property for a college graduation/family reunion event. We rented all three available properties. The location is great , quiet for us and close to the Circle and Lucas Oil. We had a total of 15 adults sleeping there. We hosted meals for up to 25 people. If you are planning a big event such as this the property is great. I would highly recommend renting a tent with tables and chairs. This was a godsend for us as the weather fluctuated from cold and rainy to sunny and warm and the tent saved us. Also there isn't much room for larger groups to share a meal indoors. I used All Occasion Tent Rental Inc. and they were fabulous to work with. They were timely, professional and good price point. If you get a tent you will need some light strands to string up for when it is getting dark. The big house is old and charming with impressive woodwork. Many bedrooms and baths. There are many stairs some a bit tricky to navigate just to be aware. Kitchen well equipped with gas range. Microwave was not easy to use as you could not see the numbers. The Penthouse is updated and a lovely space with great views . The bathrooms well appointed and its own kitchen. The carriage house also updated and roomy. Lots of space so family and friends could have some space for themselves. All the beds were comfortable. The fire pit was not working when we were there a bit disappointing. The grill by the carriage house was not kind of weak on power, not as strong as the one by the big house. Property management was very responsive and helpful. All in all had a great time being able to stay together, dine together , yet have some areas for escape.

60th Birthday
I rented the entire property to celebrate my 60th birthday with family and friends. I live in Florida now and wanted to show my Florida friends my hometown. They were accommodating with allowing us to get in early to drop of luggage as our flight arrived at Noon. The main house isn't suitable for people that have difficulty with stairs. There are no bedrooms on the main floor in either house so my 81 year old Mother was unable to stay with us. Plenty of room and privacy though even for a group of 14. This was a great location for seeing downtown and going to a Colts game. We made multiple trips to Shapiro's Deli just a block away. Also Howl at The Moon was a great time and just a short Uber ride. Such fun for a large group. There was a slight issue regarding the return of my deposit but it was rectified quickly. Overall we had a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay downtown Indianapolis.

Great for large gatherings
This is the second time I have rented this property (partly as a welcome venue for new resident physicians arriving in Indy). It met our needs perfectly both times. Some what deceiving based on outward appearances but wonderful inside for hosting a large number of guests. The only downside both times was the weather did not allow much utilization of the outdoor space.

Family Wedding Weekend
The Villa on Meridian was a great way for our family to be together over the weekend of my daughter's wedding. Rather than getting separate hotel rooms, we were able to stay together and when possible, sit around the firepit talking and catching up with the extended family; nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, significant others! Only caveat is it is pricey. Otherwise, beautiful house and convenient location to downtown Indy!

Verified traveller

Great location! Good for large groups. Great outdoor courtyard!
We had a group of approximately 25, and had enough room for all the adults to have their own space. Because the house is an older home, there are some things that are a little unusual from a space design viewpoint. Example: if you use all four bedrooms on the second floor of the main house, the two front bedrooms have no same level access to a bathroom without going through one of the other two bedrooms. Part of the fun of staying in a 100+ year old home. We rented the entire property, so had use of the carriage house and penthouse as well. Fantastic night view of the circle from the penthouse. The carriage house was a great extension of the living space. We spent many hours in the courtyard, and very much enjoyed the fire pit! And the kids and adults had a great time on the putting green! Several members of our group grew up in IN, but have not lived there for many years. It was fun to see the changes in Indy since we’ve been there. Thanks for a lovely home base during our stay!

Beautiful home and great venue
We had our wedding here. It comfortably seated 65 people on the back porch and slept 20. We had room for everything a wedding needs including dj and dance area.Even though it's an old house and has the antique charm; all the appliances and such were new, easy to use, and worked well. And we all loved the steam punk decor. Even with people constantly going in and out on a 90 degree day the house stayed cool. The outside landscaping is perfect for hanging out. We spent all 3 evenings relaxing by the fire pit(even though out was to hot for a fire it's still a very comfortable space).The manager Annette was SO helpful! We were planning this wedding from out of state and she went above and beyond to help us make everything go smoothly. Would definitely recommend this place for large groups and parties. And it's a perfect place for a small, intimate wedding. :)

Team Building experience
The location of this Home to Lucas Oil stadium is unmatched. We had 33 people stay here and though it was "Comfy crowded" we did manage to keep the main house main floor free of people This provided a GREAT place to talk after meetings. The common area Kitchen was also a great place for team relationships to build. We also REALLY enjoyed the outdoor common area. As it was, we rented the Main house the Carriage house and the Penthouse for 4 days. The amount of space available to do things and discuss things as a team was unmatched by any house/condo or hotels we have ever stayed. The ability for our entire office to stay in 1 place did as much for our relationship building and growth as the actual convention did. It let us bounce ideas off each other when they ideas were still fresh and relevant, this kind of gathering just doesn't work crammed in a hotel room or one persons 2 bedroom condo or a lobby or pub. The amount of rooms and bathrooms was decent for a group of this size and If we ever had reason to be in Indy again This without a doubt would be the first place i would go after staying. The ability to contact the people taking care of everything was also a well received addition. We had no real issues needing us to contact anyone yet when we did make a call it was answered immediately. I can recommend this place as a business must! Thank you! Thank You! Thank You ! Thank you, Corey Schmidt
