This 3 bedroom beachfront home is not your typical rental, it is very well equipped so you can feel right at home... but at the beach…. under the palm trees and the stars, surrounded by colorful bougainvillea in a lushly landscaped grassy park-like setting, where you can hear the waves constantly. Watch the dolphins swim by right off from the front porch. You can even join the dolphins if you want to hop in a kayak and paddle alongside, or just jump in the water and swim with them. The pristine white-sand beach invites long quiet walks where you can collect a great variety of sea shells, freshly washed up on the shore every day. You can also observe an abundance of maritime wild life including sea gulls, pelicans, sea turtles, dolphins, whales, and many different fish. Adjacent mangrove lined estuary is teaming with marine life & can be explored by kayak. There is a restaurant/bar on site so you don't have to drive into town for a night out.

SPECIAL HISTORY OF THIS 3 BEDROOM BEACH VILLA: Architect Raul F. Garduno of Newport Beach, CA, (the uniquely talented architect of the entire Pilar community) designed this spacious villa as his personal home. It is surrounded by well kept grass lawns, colorful bougainvillea & relaxing palm trees on 3 sides, immediately next to the beach. The two front porches feature commanding views up & down the surf line in both directions, and provide spectacular views of both sunrise and sunset.

Burl Ives, well known music and film star, purchased this home from the architect and for many years it was his personal beach retreat. You can truly feel the nostalgic mystique of a bygone era surrounding this historically significant home.
