About this property

Modern renovations. Fast Wi-fi. Beach, food, nightlife & market access w/in 3 km

Whether you’re an experience-loving explorer, in need of a relaxing get-a-way, or in search of an inclusive, virtual workplace, this brightly lit, green-friendly casa with modern appliances delivers an exceptional experience. Work-from-home (WFH) with 200 Mbps of Wi-fi and enjoy comforts of home with easy access to beaches, festivals, food, museums, nightlife and marketplaces--all within 3 km of this safe, quiet location. Newly renovated, the child-friendly casa features 2 bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, beautiful family & dining rooms, desk, office chair, outdoor seating, washer/dryer, and a private, back patio with grill and LED lights. Stream your favorite shows and music with FireTV. Adjust the air conditioning and heat as you wish.

Large windows supply an abundance of natural light. Work remotely, plan your day, or stream Netflix, You Tube, and other favorites through the enabled Fire Stick and 200 Mbps of Wi-fi. Play games in the family room in front of the fireplace, find your own special reading nook, or select a workspace using the desk, kitchen table, the bar, or one of two patio tables. The spacious, full kitchen and dining room provide great gathering and meal-prep spaces. For privacy, retreat to a beautiful bedroom. The master features its own direct access to the private backyard. Take advantage of the barbecue grill or the laundry room.

Tired of scrambling for outlets and USB ports? Outlets and USB ports are conveniently located. Use the white-noise machines in each bedroom for ambience or to block outside sounds (typically minimal in this area). Well-trained dog owners with 1-2 dogs welcome!

Before your visit, let me know if you'd like to use:
-- slow cooker or Instapot
-- boogie boards
--a rolling cart or small fold-out table for office supplies or printer, or
-- the "Pak-n-play" or highchair/booster seat combo
I'll be happy to put out children’s toys, too!

Beach towels are in the top bathroom drawer. For your convenience, you’ll find portable beach/camp chairs plus the iron/ironing board and cleaning supplies in the laundry room with the large-capacity washer and dryer.

It felt like home…..
Our stay was so easy and relaxing! So many little touches to the property made us feel like family. Our host checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed and gave us tons of tips for our stay. After a long day exploring the beautiful beach and city of Ensenada we could come home and unwind and have family time. 8 days was definitely not enough time for our stay, so we’ll be back again soon!!!!

Great Stay, Lovely home Central to Everything
My wife and I stayed here for about 2 weeks. From the very first day to the day we left it was like being at home. Clean, spacious, fully stocked, and overall extremely comfortable. We made use of the AC, the grill, the gated parking, the stocked kitchen, and I made use of the fast internet for work. Shelley was super quick to reach out to check on us and responded very fast to texts. The location is very safe, walkable to plenty of stores and restaurants, and a short drive from downtown or anywhere you may need to go.

About the host

Hosted by Shelley Peltier-Dobbs

Host profile image
I love to travel and experience the world. Hosting through Airbnb brings the world to me. That makes my own adventures even more exciting! To design a cozy, enticing environment, I applied decades of business and program management experience. My objective is to provide not only essentials, but also little things that make life more enjoyable. I’m privileged to call Ensenada home and to share the amazing culture [while learning Spanish with lots of help from local friends and neighbors]. Mi casa es su casa. Check out the reviews--like the ones below from previous guests:

Zak:
--"We LOVED our stay at Michelle's. Her place is more spacious than the pictures even suggest, and there are a number of well-defined spaces, something that's so often lacking in Abnbs. We loved the full kitchen, the wooden vaulted ceilings, and the comfortable beds…for those who WFH, there is great wifi and multiple working spaces, including a dining table and a desk. There is also a back area that gets sun that we worked at during the day. The location is also wonderful…safe neighborhood…central to everything in Ensenada. We were here for proximity to a local hospital, but we also enjoyed great food in all corners of the city. You can drive anywhere in 10 minutes or so…I was surfing every day and some great spots under 20 minutes away."

Magdalena:
--"La casa buenaventura, excelente ubicación, muy limpia, cómoda y agradable. Es una casa con todo lo necesario para pasar unas tranquilas vacaciones."

Jenna:
--"Best airbnb experience ever!! ...We had so much fun. Michelle...guided us through the whole trip! The airbnb was so much nicer even than the pictures! ...much bigger than we expected. The air conditioning was amazing. The neighborhood was so safe too. So quiet. This place is so close to everything. As 3 young girls we felt so safe staying here and never ever had any issues or fear. 100/10 recommend!!!!!!!!"

Why they chose this property

Fall in love with all Ensenada has to offer! Surf, watch dolphins play & pelicans soar, or relax with delicious food, local wines & kind people. Check out the Buenaventura guidebook with favorite spots for romantic, family and kids' activities.

Baja California is a culinary destination that delights the senses. Wine country and the must-see La Bufadora phenomenon bracket our spectacular oceanside city of Ensenada. For the kids: Heavy-duty (not disposable!) kids’ glasses, plates and bowls in bottom cabinets. For the adults: wine and margarita glasses are in the top cabinet!

Perfect for weddings and group travel! The adjoining casita, Pura Vida, may be booked as an intimate retreat for the bride and groom while this larger casa—Buenaventura--hosts friends and family. A secure, shared door with double deadbolts offers the option of shared or separated spaces for both fun and peace-keeping. Each neighboring space is fully separated by a fence, interior wall, and patio privacy wall.

What makes this property unique

Food trucks and delicious restaurants are everywhere! Pick up some charcoal and prepare a delectable meal on the grill or spoil yourself in the fully equipped kitchen. Baja California is a culinary destination that delights the senses. Fresh fish, fruit and veggies are abundant, and the knowledgeable staff of the corner butcher shop offer a great selection of grass-fed beef, gourmet cheeses, and cooking staples. Wine country and the must-see La Bufadora phenomenon bracket our spectacular oceanside city of Ensenada.
