About this property

Modern Guest House at the Beach : )

Modern minimalist meets old world Mexico. Located at the beach in Todos Santos, our casita will fulfill your every need while you rejuvenate with long walks on the white sandy beach and drift peacefully off to sleep listening to the soothing ocean waves. And for the working traveler, our WiFi/internet speed is super fast! Enjoy your breakfast on the patio. Pick fresh passion fruit from our vines. After a busy day of strolling in town or frolicking in the waves at Cerritos beach or surfing one of the secret local point breaks, visit the baby turtles being released at sunset. The sunset reflected on the mountains to the east is as spectacular as the view from the beach.

The casita has 2 private bedrooms, each with it’s own full bathroom. The main room has a fully equipped kitchen, eat in dining area and a cozy living area with TV/DVD player. There is a spacious patio for outdoor dining or reclining. If you and guests/family need more space, we have a 3BR/4BA main house on an adjacent private lot. Please see VRBO listing 304189 for more details and availability.

The dramatic Sierra de Laguna mountain range frames your panoramic view to the east of the house while you are hearing the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean a few steps west. If you can get away in the months of November through March you will become proficient in spotting the playful gray and humpback whales as they gracefully glide along the Baja coast. Perhaps you would like to hold a turtle hatchling – the beach is home to the Olive Ridley nesting grounds and the turtles are released at sunset.

Perhaps the unique song of the local bird referred to as the bird of a hundred voices will serenade you from his nest in the nearby palm trees. Pelicans, egrets and herons call the nearby freshwater lagoon their home and the lagoon is a short walk along the beach from the casita. The casual bird watching is fantastic.

You may want to meet the local fisherman when they jump the waves at the local beach in their pangas with their fresh catch of the day and bring some yellowtail or dorado home for dinner on the patio.

We are a few minutes by car or a ten minute bike ride to the town of Todos Santos, a Pueblo Magico, where you can find organic fresh produce, many excellent restaurants and several galleries displaying the work of local artisans. Although there is broadband access to the internet, and a flat screen TV – when is the last time that you had the real Milky Way on your visual screen? You may realize that you have never seen so many stars. You may not want to return home…

House steps from the beach
Beautiful house with everything you need to make amazing meals Beach towels, chairs and umbrella provided too! Gorgeous garden provided shade Layout is perfect for families or 2 couples each having their own bathroom Only part that was so so is that it was a bit far from town, too far to walk

Amazing stay
Everything was amazing! Sound of the waves crashing, amazing sunsets, walks into town for dinner and drinks, and even a charcoal bbq used for cooking our freshly caught fish from punta lobos. Great restaurant recommendations from Aaron

Great place/location and.../but..
A very comfortable and well-equipped place for the two of us, fabulous location steps from the beach. Owner and prop. mgr were very on top of communication initially. But plumbing problems were quickly evident: a horrible sewage smell in one bathroom and stopped up kitchen sink. Prop mgr came out right away, but smell continued. Plumbers didn't come til our fourth day and we weren't notified re their arrival until they were already there. Took 3 of our vacay hours waiting til plumbers replaced toilet gasket and installed a p-trap in kitchen that had never been installed. It was a drag. Lastly, several of the 8' high metal shutters on all the glass doors had very poorly working locks; two were a constant source of frustration and need to be replaced or repaired. If these are repaired, this casita would be a dream.

A month in paradise
This was the best experience we have ever had with a short term rental. We spent a month in the Casita which was well stocked with all we needed. The landscaping was beautiful and furniture comfortable. The location was perfect - steps from the beach and walking distance to a grocery, several restaurants a yoga studio and pickleball courts. Management and host were very responsive. We would love to visit them n the future.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Metkus

Host profile image
We are a San Francisco Bay Area family. We love Mexico and especially our town TODOS SANTOS. From the moment you land at the airport and feel the warm breeze, you know your vacation will be a special one. The town is charming, full of friendly people, great restaurants, shopping and art galleries. Outdoor activity awaits you or if you prefer curl up with a book or lounge on the patio.

Why they chose this property

We love the beach and mountains and wanted a real get-away...we built our 2 homes from the ground up with TLC.

What makes this property unique

The location at the beach feels worlds away from downtown Todos Santos...yet you are just moments away from great food and plenty to do.
