A Dream Specious Casita!!!

We absolutely loved this Casita. Las Gaviotas is a perfect getaway and staying at this beautiful, welcoming home made everything more enjoyable. You can feel that it was created with love. The design is modern; while filled with authentic charming local flair. Everything is so well thought out! The view is incredible . . . the glass doors sliding open all the way, give the feeling of outside living while enjoying the relaxation of being back home after a long day at the beach. We never felt like we were missing out when we wanted to rest at the house. The owners Matt and Anna are great at responding right away with any questions. Thank you! (Bravo)

Very nice and well equipped condo in the beautiful Las Gaviotas.

The condo is small but very inviting and well equipped with everything you need to cook in. The soaps and shampoos provided were a bonus. The view from the balcony is stunning, perfect for watching sunsets. My only complaint about this condo is the wifi, it is essentially non existent as it disconnects with regularity. The community of Las Gaviotas is beautiful, well maintained and equipped with everything you need to enjoy a Baja vacation including a clean ocean beach, a lovely oceanfront pool and a large hot tub. On top of all of this there is the assistance provided by Alexei, who was wonderful!! He provided restaurant recommendations (places that despite 20+ years of traveling in this area we had yet to try) that were spot on and in addition he arranged for a very nice woman named Angelica to come to our condo for pedicures on the balcony, what a treat!!! We will absolutely be back next year!!

Definitely NOT a positive experience

The view of the Property is really nice. The property has no luxuries but it can do the job. Gaviotas is a big complex and they have lots of rules..and lots of silly rules, for instance you CAN NOT have visitors, each visitor needs to pay $50 USD per visit (just to visit NOT sleep over). The guards at the entrance are really high on Power Tripping and they have their own little business agenda going. The property manager of Property ID 890031, did not help at all. We had some friends over during the afternoon (about 4 friends to be specific) and he rapidly came to the property to kick them out unless we paid $200 for the visit..he did his best in trying to negotiate a deal in order to make some money under the table for himself!!! he tried to negotiate smartly and he is in cahoots with the guards at the entrance. At the end, he took lots of time discussing the issue with us and wasted our precious time during our break. Our friends (visitors) were kicked out!!! During our civilized discussion, he spoke to the owner of the property but NEVER in front of us because he was deviated the facts at all times, he claimed that we disrespected the guards (never did). We were relieved when we left the property, not a good vibe at all. Conclussion: Will never stay in this property again nor in Gaviotas and before booking your vacation in Gaviotas, make sure you read the rules of the property because they are ridiculous.

Beautiful visit

All was lovely and effortless at Matt and Anna’s place in Las Gaviotas. The views are beautiful from the open sliding door wall, bringing the sounds of the ocean into the living room. Space was clean and comfortable. The community has easy beach access to several surf breaks right out front and is a great jump-off point to head south into Valle de Guadalupe or north into Rosarito, or just stay put and enjoy the serene comfort of this home.

Nice little getaway

This is the third time i have rented this property. I really enjoy it. It has the perfect setup for two couples. The two separate bedrooms with adjoining bathroom/shower allows privacy. My wife’s complaint is that the decor is not Mexican like so many places for rent in Las Gaviotas. To me it is the very reason that I like it. The modern contemporary look is right up my alley. The entire west wall opens up to a very panoramic view of the sea. I open it as soon as i get up. Make a cup of coffee and just sit on the patio and stare and ponder about what i want to do that day. I think that the unit is very reasonably priced compared to what I would have to pay for something similar in San Diego. The place is clean, close to numerous restaurants, there is a brand new Calimex market opened up right next to Puerto Nuevo , 45 minutes to Valle de Guadalupe. All the appliances are new looking and top notch. I can get here in less than two hours from my house. Always a go to when I want a mid week get away. If I have one complaint it is there is no shot glasses for my tequila. At least I couldn’t find any. Next visit i will donate some to the house. Love this place. If you rent you will not be sorry

Magical Stay

Our family of four had a magical stay at Matt and Anna's Modern Casita! Beautiful home. Extremely clean. AMAZING OCEAN VIEWS. Peaceful atmosphere (felt very safe). Great HOA community with wonderful amenities (private beach, pool, tennis courts, playground, etc). Quiet neighbors. Excellent surf (with perfect views from their deck while drinking morning coffee and afternoon margaritas). Matt and Anna responded very quickly with our questions and were helpful hosts. We definetly are looking forward to future visits!

We had an amazing time here!

We booked this place for our wedding weekend and we loved it. Very modern and the view is spectacular. This is one of the nicest homes we’ve seen at Las Gaviotas and it’s perfect with two full suites and a huge kitchen!

Perfect for two couples!

We were very happy with our "top side" rental home as it was modernized, clean and comfortable. The view from the back deck was incredibly nice so that we could see the surf conditions instantly. Although the kitchen did not offer an oven, there were a couple of terrific restaurants nearby (Ollie's pizza and a relatively new brewery/sushi spot across the street). The surfing break was just a short walk down the path. We found ample parking next door and on the street for our 2 cars. We would return again to this nice home.

Everything was great!

This was our first time at Las Gaviotas. The community is awesome, nice, clean and safe. The house is very nice, modern and very comfortable! We wouldn't change a thing about it. The sliding glass door allows for a full view of the ocean and the surf spot. The entire Kitchen/living space is open making the space very 'big'! Beds are very comfortable, bathrooms are nice and clean.... The pool was very nice, the beach even better! We'll be back!!

Lovely house with wonderful ocean view, very clean, new kitchen and bathrooms

Las Gaviotas is such a pretty and clean community. The house was recently demodeled and looks amazing. It was very comfortable and clean (my allergy ridden husband had a great time). Huge opening doors to balcony with ocean view. We had a great stay.

Ocean front bliss

Great property, the photos just dont do the amazing view justice. Once you look out the front you will immediatley start to relax. Loved the property and Las Gaviotas. Everything is so clean and well maintained. The property manager Alexei was fantastic, totally went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable, and perfect. Dont hesitate to book this property! Amazing how great the weather is just an hour and 45 min from San Diego. Parking was easy, property was clean, great cable tv service and Apple Tv was awsome. The private beach here was really nice, our 3 year old loved it! This place is safer than just about anywhere I have ever been! No worries at all when you are on yhe property!

Amazing views with comfortable bed

My husband and I rented this property for our wedding weekend. Matt and Anna were very responsive from the moment we reserved the property with all of the information we would need to make our stay unforgettable. Anna referred me to Alexei, the property manager, who was amazing! He set up for us to have a driver down to wine country and to have in house massages on one of the mornings. He was so incredibly helpful and gave wonderful recommendations! I cannot say enough about how wonderful Alexei was. He really made our wedding weekend perfect. The house was wonderful as well. The bed was very comfortable and we had everything we needed for the stay. The property is lovely and we really enjoyed walking with our coffee down on the path by the ocean. That is also where we took our wedding pictures which turned out beautiful!! The only problem with Las Gaviotas is that all of the homes are very close together so if you have neighbors you aren't too fond of you are kind of stuck. There was never noise at night, I think they do a great job of regulating that, but during the day there could be some noise. We didn't care because we were only in the house in the morning and later evenings before bed! All in all, this was a beautiful home with a property manager that really makes the experience exceptional! Did I mention Alexei took the time to speak to me twice on the phone to plan out the weekend because he wanted to make sure we had the best experience!?! He's the best! I highly recommend this home!

Very well kept and extremely comfortable. Property manager Alexei was attentive. Zero issues.

Although we expected this property to be much closer to the water, we ended up preferring this location since it was a little further away from all the hustle and bustle of the community. Would absolutely stay here again. The entire experience, from being able to check in earlier than we originally expected, meeting the property manager Alexei, and overall comfortability of the property, everything was outstanding. Highly recommended.
