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.

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 can be scene. 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…

Wonderful casita by the ocean
Our family of three thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! We loved being so close to the ocean and appreciated the beach towels and chairs for guest use. The grounds are well maintained and kitchen had everything we needed for making our own meals. Property managers were very responsive and met us at the casita upon arrival. We would highly recommend staying here!

Beachside Splendor
Fantastic casita steps from a beautiful beach (one house away). It's a great place to hang inside and out, close to the beach and a short, easy drive to town. The water was too treacherous to swim in, but the whales loved it. There are so many whales so close—often 10-20 feet from the surf. Bottled water is provided, and a well-appointed house with the best showers. It's as magical as it looks. Our first choice next time we visit. Thanks, Andrea/Aaron.

Amazing Stay at Casita Dos Palmas!!!
We were two couples who decided to have a non-traditional Thanksgiving in Todos Santos. So glad we did!! The casita is perfect for two couples or a family of 4-5. It is well located close to town and steps away from an amazing, endless beach for long walks and taking in the gorgeous sunsets. You can hear the ocean waves at night and birdsong in the morning. It is a phenomenal getaway, yet close to fantastic restaurants, shopping, activities galore. We were very well looked after by the property hosts. We will be back!!

Todos Santos Guesthouse
Very clean, great location. This guesthouse is quaint and in a great location. You need a car to access it. It is right beside the beach with no beach views but you hear the waves. Perfect for a small family or 2 couples. Has access to a laundry room, awesome beach umbrella, chairs and boogie boards. Very helpful and accommodating property managers. I’d go back.

No ocean sounds
This is a nice place near the beach, about 10 minutes from downtown Todos Santos. The interior is modern and comfortable, especially the two large bathrooms with good closet spaces with shelves and drawers.The patio looks out onto a hardscaped yard, with some large palm trees, many bougainvillea, a beautiful Rain tree,and well-tended native plants.The casita has two, 2-3 story homes between it and the dunes, over which are the beach and ocean. It's about a 100 yard walk to the very end of the road and up the dunes before and can see and hear the ocean. On some days we saw a lots of whale activity. Many people come to the beach for the classic sunsets, which also can make the mountains to the east, which are not visible from the casita, look beautiful. The heavens and stars are amazing. The owner was very responsive to our requests and feedback and the property managers, Aaron and Brett, were very helpful.

Perfect Space near the Ocean
This place is a gem. It’s super close to the ocean (literally just a few yards!). All the necessary amenities needed for Todos: functional kitchen, spacious bathroom, simple bedroom - and all with a nice view of the outdoors. Easy to find and perfect place to enjoy outside.

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.

Quick family get away
Easy check in process. The casita was very clean and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with what we needed for prep. The location was quiet but close to town. We really enjoyed having such a short walk to the beach for sunset. The garden area was perfect for morning coffee. Can't wait to visit again!

Beautiful accomodations and great location.
The Casita was just as described. Aaron was prompt with responses. The Casita is close to town and in walking distance to the beach. It was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The outdoor space was amazing. The only suggestions I have are: update the directions and add some playing cards/board games.

Great beach location to savor after business in Cabo and a quick run to Todos Santos. Couldn't get enough looking at those waves at our doorstep. A can of WD40 may be helpful for those exterior doors and locks and the gate opening outside.

Could be better
I hope you update your place, so future travelers can take advantage of the great location if they're in the food, walking and relax mood. The sunsets were amazing almost every single day during our 30 days stay. The restaurant choices in Todo Santos are plenty and even with just restaurant disappointment visits, every single dish was well prepared and serviced. People in BCS are so friendly that you want to move there. It should be posted that the property is surrounded by agricultural fields and a back road, that brings a good amount of dust to the outside furniture and the casitas doors have to be closed most of the time. Your insight guide was well done and with good recommendations.

Comfortable home, quiet location
Andrea's home was perfect for us. It was great having 2 separate bedrooms with en suite bathrooms at either end of the house, and we enjoyed spending time on the patio, lounging and eating breakfast outdoors while listening to and watching tropical birds. We especially loved being close to a wild beach with so few people! We enjoyed lots of walks on the beach. Our on-site host, Aaron, provided a wealth of great information introducing us to Todos Santos. We had a long day of travel and arrived in the evening, hungry, thirsty, and tired. Aaron graciously stocked the fridge and pantry with some beer, milk, and coffee and directed us to an excellent restaurant nearby, where we had our first dinner. We would highly recommend this place to others seeking a quiet place near the beach in Todos Santos.

Nice spot close to the beach
This casita was perfect for two couples. Each bedroom had an ensuite bathroom, and the shared living space was sufficient for our stay. The patio was nice for sitting with coffee in the morning. The short walk to the beach was a huge perk and great for strolls. We didn't see any turtles during our visit, but great proximity to Turtle Sanctuary. The property manager met us at the home to give us the keys and a brief rundown of the property. Nice guy, and he stocked the home with a few welcome amenities (aka- beer and water). One note- no shampoo or conditioner provided. Not a big deal. Just something to be aware of. We attended a wedding at a home nearby, and this was a perfect location for us to pop around the neighbor on foot and a quick drive into town for shopping, meals, drinks, etc.

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.

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.
