About this property

Casa Escalera al Cielo is now available for rent in historic downtown Centro

La Ermita de Santa Isabel is often used as a natural background in the film
industry. The popular Mexican Novela, “Abismo De Pasion” was filmed
regularly just out the front door. Now, for the first time in over a century, this amazing property is available to be enjoyed as a vacation home. From the moment you drive up the cobble stone street in front of one of Merida’s historic churches, to the moment you step inside the door - something magical happens & you know you are truly somewhere special.

Escalera al Cielo is an architectural showcase in El Centro that's designed to enhance your vacation experience while in Merida. The main home allows guest the ultimate privacy by placing the master suite upstairs. The master is furnished with a king size bed and has it's own bathroom. Additional guest also have their privacy by enjoying the casita which is positioned at the rear of the property. The casita is furnished with double beds and has it's own private bathroom.

Enjoy the lush garden patio in the morning as the tropical birds fly over head and have your first cup of coffee. Or dine under the stars in one of the many outside areas of this incredible home. With this open floor plan there is never a lack of a breeze anytime of day. And just to make sure you rest comfortably, all bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning. Don't forget the pool is always an inviting place to relax after a busy day whether exploring the city or ancient Mayan ruins! And for those of us who need stay connected to reality, WiFi is provided so you can stay up to date or turn on the 55 inch smart TV and catch the latest show on your Netflix account.

Other things to note-
We love children, but personally having small children, we can tell you this home is NOT suitable for small children. There are balconies, a 17 foot high metal staircase with open treads and no pool fence or pool alarms on the doors. For your own sanity, please no toddlers or smaller children.

Our vacation
My husband and I traveled to Merida for vacation/anniversary. We spent 7 days at the house and loved it!! It was exactly what we needed for a vacation rental, especially the pool and the kitchen. The house is in a great neighborhood. It's quiet and a short walk to Santa Lucia. The one downside would be the dog kennel two houses away. The dogs bark twice a day (for a bit) at feeding time, but then settle down again. I would highly recommend this property and would stay here again.

Repeat Visit
Everything was just as we expected, especially since we visited here last year. The place is as elegant and massive as the photos indicate, way more space than we need. It was hotter than normal this trip so the pool was used more than normal. The home has easy street parking that was always available in front of the house, it is fully equipped and very safe.

Colonial oasis in Merida
We enjoyed our week long stay in this La Ermita neighborhood villa. It's a very private home with incredible iron work, huge open spaces and 27 stairs to get to the second floor! Its just outside the center enough to have easy parking but close enough that a a $3 Uber ride or a 15 minute walk will get you there,

Une oasis en plein cœur de Mérida
Nous avons énormément apprécié de séjourner dans cette maison aménagée avec goût où nous avons pu profiter du jardin et de la piscine en toute intimité. Très bon contact avec les propriétaires. Nous recommandons vivement cette belle maison située dans un quartier typique et agréable.

Paty & I own a boutique real estate firm in Florida. We have two small children and enjoy traveling. When in the U.S., we have an Airstream and enjoy traveling and exploring Federal & State parks. Otherwise, we have a home in the Yucatan where we love to indulge the Mexican & Mayan culture.

Why they chose this property

Knowing several individuals over the last decade that have told me how amazing Merida was, I knew it was finally time to go for a visit. In January of 2018 I flew our family down for a week in the city. I can honestly say we were not prepared for how amazing the city is. The people are so nice and welcoming, the food is fantastic, the architecture is brilliant and there's so much to do!! We immediately fell in love with Merida and knew this was the city we will eventually retire to. The day before we left we toured a few homes for sale and Casa Escalera al Cielo was the last home we viewed. When we walked into the home my wife and I knew immediately this was the home for us - we couldn't get the smiles of our face. And the location is AMAZING!!! Being able to walk to everything is huge, but having a home directly in front of a beautiful park and historic church from the early 1700's is magical. At night when everything is lit up, you have to pinch yourself to make sure you're not dreaming. Step back in time and enjoy an amazing home, on a peaceful town square in the heart of the historic downtown.

What makes this property unique

Merida is a truly magical city and the historical downtown is amazing! Casa Escalera al Cielo is right in the middle of it all so you can walk wherever you'd like to go! La Ermita is a quaint area of the El Centro with beautiful cobblestone streets and underground utilities. Directly across the street from the home is Parque de La Ermita as well as the historic church from the early 1700's - La Ermita de Santa Isabel. Just a short walk 7 blocks north you'll find yourself in the heart of the city at the Plaza Grande which is surrounded by numerous cultural centers, museums, & governors palace.
