Just what we needed

It started off a little rough as the room wasn’t ready for us after a long days travel. Leo responded quickly and referred us to the property manager Pedro who set us up on another unit for the first night, which we were happy with. The room had pretty much everything we needed and the beach chairs and umbrella were a great addition. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. The wifi worked well and the view was amazing. We would stay again in Leos place.

Ocean Front Convenience

We enjoyed our stay at Leo's place very much. He was quick and easy to communicate with and the condo is exactly as pictured. The convenience of having the hotel amenities was really nice as well as being directly on that awesome beach was so great. Being just a short walk from the wine bar, grocery and the rest of town was an added bonus. The condo was a great value for the money!

Well appointed with a lovely view of the beach and the fishing fleet

This unit is very nicely done and very comfortable. We appreciated the beautiful ocean view from the small balcony. The bathroom and shower especially was spectacular. Facilities at the resort next door are also available. The town is very small so best to be prepared by bringing along whatever supplies you might like.

The Good: Property location, a good size for 2 people, balcony overlook's the pool/bar area with views of the beach. The Bad: Late check in due to cleaning, owner advertiser chrome cast TV which was not available( No Worldcup), toilet leaking all over bathroom floor , safe did not work, unable to leave patio doors open after dark due to noise from the bar area.

Wonderful Condo, Great location

We had a great time in Los Barriles. The condo worked out perfectly for us. It was clean, simple, and nicely decorated. Everything worked great and it had everything you needed. The location was perfect and the view of the ocean was spectacular. The complex had everything necessary for a great vacation. I took advantage of the spa for a massage, we ate a couple times at the restaurant and enjoyed the pool. So easy to check in and check out. Communication couldn't have been better. Thank you so much for sharing your condo with us.

Owner needs to provide better service

It all started before we even left, trying to het access instructions upon arrival. Owner was to provide and after many requests, I was finally able to get codes and what was needed from VRBO agent. The condo manager was good. Unfortunately we arrived on a Sunday when everyone is off and we started with half electric going out, then the refrigerator stopped cooling, we had 2 beach towels and 4 shower towels for 5 night stay for two people. Supplies in the condo is sparse so we did some grocery shopping which included trash bags. The bed slanted to the inside from the right and wasn't very comfortable. But we made the best of it. The Bayview Bar staff was amazing and tried helping us On Sunday. I love the condos, but would choose a different unit and owner to stay with. We love Los Barriles and had a great time despite starting off with a struggle. Fishing was amazing and cant wait to go back again!

The listing stated there was a washer and dryer in the unit however when we contacted the owner he informed us we needed to pay the cleaning staff to do our laundry, with no apology or explanation of why the listing was incorrect. The advertised hot tub was also not heated, there was an issue with the TV, and then there were very strong fumes in the unit which led us to request a refund on the remainder of our stay. The owner was incredibly rude, and he refused. We then put a claim in with VRBO and notified the owner that we vacated the property, at which point he threatened us with unfounded accusations of theft and damage. VRBO denied our claim stating: "After reviewing your claim, we regret to inform you that it has been declined. The property owner has provided proof that the washer and dryer at the property were operational during your stay. As we have thoroughly explained this matter to you and this decision is final. Any further replies to discuss and/or argue the reimbursement amount will be closed without reply." An interesting decision, considering the owner admitted via text that there was no washer or dryer available to us. Besides these issues, the view from the bed overlooks the bar, and the balcony is very small, so there are better rental options available in the building. Also be aware the pool is freezing, the pool bar was not open, and it is very windy in winter. If those things matter, you may want to go elsewhere.

About the host

Hosted by Leo Schnitzler

Host profile image
I am a semi retired Canadian who absolutely loves to travel. I fell in love with Los Barriles on my first trip through. I have two grown children and two grandchildren who I adore and love to spend time with. I always look forward to getting back down to the Baja no matter where else my travels have taken me. I hope you enjoy, Leo

Why they chose this property

Non stop flights from Western Canada makes for quick hassle free trips to escape the cold.

What makes this property unique

I enjoy sipping a frosty Margarita on the balcony for happy hour, watching the boats return from a day of fishing, and displaying the color coded flags of their catches of the day.
