The house is a 1870 sq ft. Yucatecan beachhouse, a short walk to the Gulf of Mexico in the quiet fishing village of Santa Clara which has approximately 100 year-round residents. The house has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, three balconies and a private pool. Santa Clara is located an hour and fifteen minutes from Merida, the stunning, historic capital of the Yucatan, two and a half hours west of Cancun, two hours from Chichen Itza and 5 hours from Belize.
There is a growing number of ex-pats living in the immediate period. The neighbours are extremely friendly and accommodating. During the summer the Gulf of Mexico is a beautiful aquamarine, but during the rest of the year the water is somewhat murky. The area is rich in Mayan history with Chichen Itza located 70 minutes away.
The house is equipped with English satellite television, a large library, internet with USB and subscription. and a propane barbecus The backyard is quite private and shaded with palm trees and the pool is warm year round.
No car is available with the exchange as we share a car with another Canadian family, but inexpensive transportation is easily arranged to tourist attractions and pick up from Merida is also available with local friends.
This is our second home, so all exchanges need not be simultaneous. We are Rob, a retired teacher, and Donna, a secretary/bookkeeper. We are non-smokers with four grown children. We are experienced exchangers who will appreciate the opportunity to visit your part of the world.
We have created a website for the house for potential exchangers detailing the amenities, the surrounding area and the rich Mayan history of the area.
