The host couldn’t have been more responsive to our needs and questions. The house was tranquil and well-appointed. It was hard not to just stay on-site everyday to enjoy the serenity of the garden and pool.

Great stay

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.

The only air conditioning is in the two bedrooms and it was okay but it's not the most current model of split unit so it didn't really cool tremendously but it was okay the rest of the house was hot because we were there in May and it was one of the hottest times yes there are ceiling fans but it would have been nice if there was some sort of cooling in the rest of the house but we enjoyed the house it's beautiful amazing and historical

Repeat Stay Sept. 2022

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

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!!

Beautiful home

We loved the private pool, lounge chairs and the lush green trees. There seemed to be a bit of an ant problem around the pool and a handful of them sneaking into the kitchen. The AC unit in the bedroom in the main house was a must and we enjoyed it very much! Lots of hot water and water pressure! We couldn’t seem to find extra towels or wash cloths since what was provided wasn’t enough (one wash cloth for us to share). We felt very safe with three doors + paddle locks to keep us in! The church directly across the street was beautiful and we loved the ringing of the bells! There was always room to park on the street or in one of the few stalls in front of the church!

Zur Himmelstreppe

Die Casa wird ihrem Namen gerecht: himmlisch! Aber auch im Himmel gibt es heulende Hunde, die einem aus dem Schlaf reissen und Samstagnacht eine Disco, die einem den Schlaf bis 3 Uhr raubt. Dennoch ein wunderbares Raumgefühl! Regresaremos!

This place was amazing! You walk in the door and you are in another world. Loved it.

Everything was clean. The beds were comfortable, excellent hot water showers, huge kitchen, had Netflix on television, loved the location. I am a huge walker, so I felt very comfortable walking into town. I felt very safe walking by myself and I am 67 and a woman. We had a wonderful taxi driver who lived a few doors away. it was so much cheaper to do that than pay for tours and he was flexible with times. his name is Sergio. you can get his number from the owner. We ate from several restaurants near by that were delicious and also went in town. We made breakfast every morning in the kitchen. It was so nice to come home and swim in the pool. I did laps, others just stood in the pool talking. Very spacious and comfortable. Would recommend it to two couples like we were or a family with kids. The second home on the other side of the pool was perfect.

Classic Elegant Spanish Colonial

It is difficult to describe the architectural style until you experience it for yourself. We had to make an unexpected trip to Merida and we were not looking forward to the journey but one step into Casa Escalera took all our stress away. It is truly a magical place!
