About this property

Breathtaking! Luxury 1 Bed / 2 Bath Beach Home, Panoramic Deck View, Beach Front

Breathtaking! Luxury Beachfront Home; Huge Wrap Around Deck;
Magnificent Views of the Sea of Cortez!

This gorgeous 1 bed, 2 bath beach front home is very spacious throughout and features a huge wrap-around deck that offers some of the most spectacular views that you’ll see anywhere. Floor to ceiling windows along the length of the deck allows in lots of natural light and adds to the welcoming feeling that you get as soon as you enter the front door, when your eyes are immediately drawn to the beautiful Sea of Cortez.

There are few places in the world where the mountains meet the water in perfect harmony, as they do here. Situated on a beautifully pristine, natural turtle nesting beach cove, this beach front home is situated in what many consider to be the most desirable neighborhood in Los Barriles. Enjoy the brilliant Sea of Cortez sunrises and the amazing sunsets; relax as you barbeque and dine on your huge deck, under the star filled skies; and just feel the calm as you unwind from the hectic pace that you’ve left behind. You’ll marvel at the sight and sounds of breaching whales and the sting rays jumping out of the water to fly through the air; then “belly flopping” back into the water.

Amenities include a large master bedroom, with an ample walk-in closet and spacious bathroom & shower. There is also a sizeable guest bathroom, complete with a large shower, situated off the living room, and, a full-size laundry room with modern washer and dryer, ample shelving, folding area, etc. As well, Casa Tortuga boasts a full-size kitchen and dining area, along with a private courtyard area, and, along with all the other amenities listed below, yes, of course you’ll have complimentary wifi! Also, of more interest to some than to others, we realize, the gardens are professionally landscaped and regularly maintained.

Kite boarding, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing, and snorkeling on a coral reef in safe, swimmable water is all within steps of your home. If your preference is to be on dry land, there are amazing hiking and biking trails nearby, ATV’s are available for rent in town, along with yoga and a new and well- equipped gym, to mention only some of the fun things that you can do. And, located about 1 ½ miles from Casa Tortuga is one of the very top attractions in the Baja, the new, world-class Tres Palapas Baja Pickleball Resort, featuring 10 excellent courts, with amazing amenities that includes a café and smoothie bar, a restaurant and rooftop bar.

A 45-minute drive north from the San Jose del Cabo airport gets you to the entrance of the Los Barriles, the quaint little town that is home to about 5,000 people; approximately ½ locals and ½ expatriates. Casa Tortuga is situated a little over 3 miles north of the center of town and is an easy ride to pick up fresh fruit & vegetables, grocery and beverage needs, and, a good variety of restaurants serving quality, delicious food.

Casa Tortuga is ideal for a couple. The property is not suitable for small children, given the proximity to the Sea of Cortez, coupled with the fact that there are some stairs on the property and the balconies have low or no railings.
Please note, also, that this is a non-smoking property.

We look forward to welcoming you to Casa Tortuga!

Amazing!

Our stay was so great. Brian and Lucy were the best and most communicative and helpful hosts. The property/view is lovely and very private. We loved listening to the water lapping all night. We especially loved getting out in the kayaks to float with all the devil rays. We rented an ATV to get back and forth to town and pickleball and that was fun too. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Lovely Spacious Home with Gorgeous Ocean View

What could be better than waking up every day to a beautiful sunrise visible from the spacious king bedroom? Step outside to enjoy a breakfast with gorgeous ocean views and watch the birds welcome the day as you listen to the sound of waves rolling into the rocky shore below. We were even blessed to see a mother whale and her calf breaching just off shore. Everything at this lovely home was perfect. The kitchen was extremely well equipped for cooking. We loved the large range with 6 gas burners and had all the cookware and knives we needed. The bed and all the furniture was very comfortable, storage space was ample and the washing machine was large enough to wash all our clothes. The hosts were extremely friendly and responsive. Always available, but never intrusive. There were many choice of good restaurants in the area. For a delicious good value meal we liked Taqueria El Viejo and for a special night out, Santuario was heads above the other nice restaurants. For a nice breakfast or drinks by the beach, visit La Playa. The passion fruit smoothie was world class. And, of course, the home is just 1.7k down the road from the Tres Palapas Pickleball Resort where we met many friendly players from all over the US and Canada and enjoyed lots of good pickleball, as well as some good food and drinks.

Vacation from snow!

Brian and Lucy were fabulous! They answered every text and question immediately and helped make our stay perfect. The Casa is large, with an amazing view of the Sea of Cortez with daily whales sightings. Of course, sunsets and sunrises are always the best. The kitchen is well stocked, great washer, and dryer, which we used as we were in Baja for three weeks. A very comfortable bed while listening to the sea all night. It is a few minutes from los Bareilles by drive, but we enjoyed getting out of the rush and back to our Casa. We would definitely stay here again as this was our second time at this property.

Gorgeous home

We truly enjoyed our stay at Casa Tortuga. Brian and Lucy were wonderful hosts. They were both very friendly, helpful, and responsive. The home was gorgeous and in a perfect location overlooking the Sea of Cortez. The home was immaculately clean, well-appointed, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you need to prepare meals. The home was bright with incredible lighting from the oversized windows and sliding doors. The king sized bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed sleeping with the sliding door open so we could hear the sound of the ocean. The two bathrooms were clean, spacious, with plenty of luxurious towels. There was plenty of hot water and good water pressure. The outside areas were spacious, with lots of comfortable seating, tables, bbq grill, and amazing views. The property's landscaping was spectacular with plenty of palm trees, cacti, and flowers. We saw and heard lots of hummingbirds and butterflies. If you play pickleball, the home was a very short drive (about 1.5 miles) to Tres Palapas, a fantastic and fun location to play pickleball and socialize. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay and look forward to returning in the future.

Beautiful Casa Tortuga

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Tortuga! The house is beautiful, clean and comfortably furnished with a fully stocked kitchen. The ocean views are absolutely breathtaking from every window and especially from the spacious verandas. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and well maintained. Safety, security and privacy are not a concern as the gracious hosts, Brian and Lucy, live (very unobtrusively) on the grounds. Casa Tortuga is truly one of the finest properties we've ever stayed and we recommend it highly!

Fantastic Baja property

This was our second time renting on this property and we absolutely love it. We stayed at the small casita next to the waters edge last year, and this year we stayed at the main house. You can't go wrong with either one. Gorgeous views and great location. We travel a fair amount and this is probably the nicest rental we have ever had. Loved the space and layout. Everything was in nice condition and those views....Wow.

Absolutely Wonderful Place

We had a great experience here, and in the Los Barilles area. The owners were friendly, helpful, and accomodating. The house was spectacular, with, among many things, amazing sunrises, great spaces to hang out, inside and out, plenty of open space, and everything we needed. We'd come back in a second.

Beautiful and serene

Spectacular, quiet location overlooking the sea of Cortez. We woke up to gorgeous sunrises every morning, and spent our days wing foiling, kayaking and exploring on land and sea. The Casa is far enough from town to be quiet and private but close enough that running to town for a meal or shopping was easy. Our hosts Brian and Lucy were friendly, helpful and full of good tips on what to do and where to go. We can’t wait to come back!

My husband and I stayed at Casa Tortuga for two-and-a-half weeks this past February and had a spectacular time. The casa has an amazing view of the Sea of Cortez where we enjoyed watching sun and moon rises from the bedroom, living room and lanai. The casa is well-equipped and has lovely artwork to enjoy.

Las Barriles Paridise

Gorgeous home on a spectacular piece of paradise just a short distance from the center of town. The owners are some of the nicest people you will meet, they go out of their way to make you feel welcome and they make sure you have everything you need. In short, they are Canadians. Which explains everything in my opinion. I will never forget waking up every morning to the sight and sound of the ocean waves pounding the beach below our beautiful villa. I could have stayed there a lot longer if I could. Hopefully, someday I can. If so I will look for a place just like this.

About the host

Hosted by Brian & Lucy Williams

Host profile image
We are Canadian and live in Vancouver, but we try to spend as much time as we can in Los Barriles and on our beautiful property. We’ve lived in 4 countries previously, and Mexico is our 5th. Our time in Asia included many years in Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong. When we returned to Canada from Asia a few years back, we had our hearts set on finding a nice vacation property somewhere near Vancouver, and while that didn’t happen – something even better did – we found Los Barriles and our Tortuga property!
Having lived abroad for over 25 years and having travelled extensively throughout Asia, Europe, and elsewhere, we were fortunate enough to have experienced what we believe was some of the best that each of the countries visited had to offer, so, when we found Los Barriles, we just knew instinctively that this place had everything that we had hoped for and that it was right for us!!

Why they chose this property

Why Brian and Lucy chose Los Barriles
An amazing property on the Sea of Cortez, an abundance of excellent food of all varieties, an endless list of activities to enjoy, and some of the nicest people that we’ve had the pleasure of meeting, anywhere. This question is also easily answered by comparing the weather patterns of Vancouver, Canada with those of Los Barriles!:)
