About this house rental

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.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is very nicely done with large spaces for cooking and hanging out. The pool area is perfect to cool off and the casita is lovely. The balcony and patio upstairs are great to watch the sunrise or sunset or happenings at the church. Be prepared for very tall spiral staircase climb to the master suite and loud barking dogs next door. Not an issue for us but could be for some folks.

Once again, this place was amazing (and perfect). We spent everyday in the pool because of the hot weather. The coffee shop at the Barrio Vivo hostel across the street was a perfect place for morning espresso. The neighborhood is quiet and the house is within walking distance to Plaza Grande.

Most exciting experience of my life
Most exciting experience of my life
My family and I came in Mexico for the first time. Merida was our first city to visit in a trip that included Merida, tulum and Valladolid. It was the most exciting experience of my life. Casa escalera is amazing! In reality the house is even better than the pictures posted. We enjoyed the city thanks to the central location , very close to the piazza grande e Santa Lucia. If you want to go further and see paseo de montejo or the Mayan museum just call an Uber, they are very fast convenient and cheap.. cheaper than a taxi. We loved the pool between the house and the casita. The yard is so beautiful with the flowers and trees. Nothing bad to report, just good things. I loved the taste of the decorations and furniture. The kitchen is wonderful… I cooked all the breakfasts in the mornings and it’s even better than my kitchen at home. It is exactly the house I would love to have for myself. I will go back again next time I travel back to the Yucatán. By the way … the air conditioning is working great and you need it just when you go to bed. We used more the big ceiling fans that are all over the house and in the casita. The pool is big enough to swim and is not shallow. I give 5 stars also for cleanliness and for the all inclusive price! Fantastic quality for an even fantastic price! Thank you so much to the host!!
