The short answer
For a three-month contractor project in the Monterrey metro area, most companies land on a whole furnished house or apartment booked as a corporate stay. Three months is long enough that per-room hotel rates stop making sense, and short enough that an annual lease is not worth the guarantor, deposit, and furnishing work it demands.
The practical version: one property rented as a single unit for the project window, invoiced to the company, with the crew rotating through it rather than checking in and out.
Why three months is the awkward length
Under two weeks, a hotel is usually simplest. Past a year, a lease is clearly right. Three months falls between the two, and it is the length where companies most often overpay by defaulting to whichever option they used last time.
The hotel math turns first. Room rates are charged per person per night, so a five-person crew multiplies the bill five ways for ninety nights, with no kitchen to reduce food spend and no washer to handle work clothes.
The lease math turns second. An annual contract in Mexico typically means a guarantor or a rental policy, a deposit, utility accounts in someone’s name, and an empty property that has to be furnished and then emptied again. For ninety days, that overhead rarely pays back.
Rotation is the feature, not the complication
Contractor projects rarely keep the same faces for three months. People rotate in and out on their own cycles, and the lodging is expected to stay put while the occupants change.
That works cleanly when the property is booked for the whole window rather than per person. The stay continues, self check-in handles handovers between groups without anyone waiting for a front desk, and the company keeps one continuous booking instead of a stack of individual reservations.
What is worth agreeing in advance is who the named contact is, and how a change of occupants is communicated. That is a conversation, not paperwork — but having it before the first rotation avoids confusion at the door.
Invoicing across a long project
A US or foreign parent company will not receive a document that looks like a hotel folio. Mexican lodging is documented with a CFDI — the electronic tax invoice — and it requires the paying entity’s tax details, which need to be collected at booking rather than at project close.
We issue a CFDI for the stay. If your finance team has never processed Mexican lodging before, settle the format and the required details in the same conversation as the dates, not in month three.
What we are, and what we are not
Concretely: a whole furnished house in Guadalupe, Nuevo León, inside the Monterrey metro area — 3 bedrooms, 5 beds, up to 7 guests, 1 full bathroom, a full kitchen, WiFi, a washer, TV, free parking, and self check-in. There is one house, so a three-month window is either available or it is not.
The honest limit is the single bathroom. For a crew of four or five whose mornings can be staggered, it works. For a large crew that must all be showered and out inside the same half hour every day for ninety days, a hotel with an ensuite per room is the better call, and we would rather say that at the enquiry than at check-in.
