About this property

Ocean Front Penthouse Condo on South Rosarito's Best Coast

Penthouse condo on the top corner floor of the best section of the baja coastline, overlooking beautiful rock reef breaking waves just south of Rosarito at K-36.7 and just north of las Rocas hotel and Puerto Nuevo Lobster Village.

The Penthouse has all of the amenities necessary for a comfortable extended retreat, including Directv with 52 inch plasma, DVD, Denon stereo with surround sound, central heat, granite countertops, full kitchen, extra large patio, walk-in showers, jacuzzi hot tub, 14 foot ceilings, 9 foot doors, a large open entertainment room, and a beautiful 180 degree view right on top of the ocean.

With two very nice king size bedrooms and a third bunk bedroom, it is the perfect getaway for a family or two couples. The condo is kept immaculate and up-to-date with most things replaced when there are signs of wear.

With five different waves viewable from the balcony, and K-38 a half km to the south, this is an ideal location for a surfing-oriented family. There is a family friendly white sand beach walking distance from the property. A variety of exceptional restaurants are within a few kilometers driving. South Rosarito is a short drive though artisan's row. Valle Guadalupe is 45 minutes for the wine connoisseurs.

The south facing beach often blocks windy afternoon conditions found in other parts a few kilometers north or south. After 15 years of surfing up and down the Baja coast, I knew this was where I wanted my getaway. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family enjoys it!

Place is amazing beautiful views ,quality building

Loved it. Make sure to print out and take your paperwork with you or they make you drive to rosarito to print it out. Nice and clean just watch out for the elevator, I would suggest taking the stairs. We did get stuck for 2 minutes kinda scary. But other then that it is an amazing experience, thanks again

Beautiful, spacious condo

Very spacious, clean condo with a great view. We were a little surprised to see construction rt next to it (the view will not be a corner view for long) but, thankfully, we couldnt hear any noise from the inside. The patio is huge with nice furniture & a hammock. The view is great. The pool & game room were so fun for my kids. The pool was very warm. No beach access. We had a lot of trouble at check-in with security... but the property manager helped us out some. It just took a very long time to check in & we almost left because they were very rude to us, but, we are glad we stayed because it was worth the hassle!

Stayed for 2 nights here at Costa Bella

The house was very nice, great layout very spacious the balcony was huge, the location was good, your at a mid point of Ensenada and Rosarito security at the front was super nice and helpful. So the reason I gave this review a 1 star is because the pool was under construction it looked like they are replasturing it and another reason is I along with my wife and 2 other guest got attacked by bed bugs which really made the experience stink. If it wasn't for the bed bugs I would have rated this place 5 stars even if it didn't have a pool. Hope they take care of this problem quick

Dreamy View, Didn't want to leave!

Our family stayed here for a little over a week. We did so much research prior to settling on this condo. Here are my detailed thoughts: Pros: the view. You just can't beat it. Listening to the waves never gets old and you don't need white noise. Staff is friendly. Feels very safe. Place is large and spacious. Kitchen has everything you need to cook! Large pantry to put your food in. Great spacious fridge. The ability to walk to the beach at low tide was dreamy!! We also did lots of tidepooling which was a fun surprise. There are tons of shells to collect along the rocks. Great food recommendations. Las Rocas is a MUST - so much fun! The pool was great when it was open. Property is pretty clean and kept nice. So great to have washer and dryer on site. There was also workout equipment which was awesome!! Master bathroom is great - jacuzzi bathtub was great. The pizza place was SOOOO good! Highly recommend. Scott was so easy to work with, always responded quickly and kindly. We are already planning to go back!! Cons: the fans in the main area don't really work and neither does the AC (thankfully it wasn't too hot and we didn't need it). TV and stereo instructions are outdated, so we weren't able to use the stereo. BBQ didn't work. We emailed Lucy the manager and she responded with - everything should work and there's a backup BBQ (charcoal that didn't work either). Not any help. Porch lights were out. The rooms along the road side are kind of loud - have white noise and you'll be good. The bunk bed room isn't really a room but it worked fine for our kids! Pool was closed a lot and it sucks that you have to pay to use the hot tub. The guest shower wouldn't ever get as hot as the master. It took forever to get back through the border. Research when a good time to go is and don't get stuck like us! Bottom line: it was AWESOME and we are already planning to go back. I love detailed reviews because they help me pick the best place and plan a successful trip. Enjoy and thank you Scott!

As described, beautiful views!

We had a wonderful stay (3 nights) and left by 5 am Sunday to beat the long border crossing! The description is accurate and communication with the host is great. The views and the overall comfort of this condo outweigh any tiny mishaps. It is far from anything, but we grocery shopped and drove around to discover! The beds are comfy and the walk to beach was great! My kids enjoyed it and we were all able to relax and take in the views. Read the email the host sends in detail so that there are no surprises! The security guards are nice and friendly and we felt safe at all times. We hope to make this our annual Baja spot!

Emergency visit made better

We had an emergency that led us to Rosarito, being able to find this listing and it being exactly how it was representative made it all better. The owner was great to work with, he was attentive to my text and made me feel important! He had his manager go check the wifi which was not working when he sent her but worked perfectly all weekend. The elevator was working most of the weekend and when it didn’t the guard came to help bring our things down! The only mishap was during check in was in did not bring the pass…..BRING A PRINTED COPY OF THE PASS ATTACHED TO THE INSTRUCTIONS!! Oh and let the shower run In the spare room for warm water. This was a great plans and I really would rent this again!!

Wasn’t happy

I wasn’t happy when I got there and found out that the master bedroom bathroom was locked. I emailed the property manager Lucy and she came by 45 minutes later and then I found out that the extra towels and sheets cabinet was locked and she stated that this is the owners rules. Also the hot water in the bathrooms for the shower was not working at all. Also the property was listed as a three bedroom but it was two bedroom and the bunkbeds were in the laundry room which there was no air circulation. The AC also wasn’t working at all. The only thing I enjoy at this property was the ocean view from the balcony.

Vacation week

This property was very comfortable and cozy. Kitchen had all the essentials for home cooking. Balcony had an amazing view and comfortable furniture to see beautiful sunsets. The only problem that we encountered was the the living room couches were shedding so the “leather” was all over the room and stuck to clothes. Otherwise everything else was excellent.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Brooks

Host profile image
We are San Clemente residents and in the business of wealth management, retirement and estate planning, and fortune protection. San Clemente is known as the Spanish Village by the Sea. Rosarito is our San Clemente of past years.

Why they chose this property

After surfing the northern baja for over 25 years, this location was determined to be the best for waves, weather, reduced winds, coastline views, access to the best restaurants, the town of Rosarito, and more.

What makes this property unique

The views are spectacular. The best local restaurants could compete in any town around the world. There are many (less popular) surf spots that are less crowded or empty. The condo has many upgrades, with granite counter tops, jacuzzi tub, extra large showers. It is well-kept, cared-for, and we expect the same of our respectful guests.
