About this property
Modern Guest House at the Sand
Modern minimalist meets old world Mexico. Located at the beach in Todos Santos, our casita will fulfill your every need while you rejuvenate with long walks on the white sandy beach and drift peacefully off to sleep listening to the soothing ocean waves. And for the working traveler, our WiFi/internet speed is super fast! Enjoy your breakfast on the patio. Pick fresh passion fruit from our vines. After a busy day of strolling in town or frolicking in the waves at Cerritos beach or surfing one of the secret local point breaks, visit the baby turtles being released at sunset. The sunset reflected on the mountains to the east is as spectacular as the view from the beach.
The casita has 2 private bedrooms, each with it’s own full bathroom. The main room has a fully equipped kitchen, eat in dining area and a cozy living area with TV/DVD player. There is a spacious patio for outdoor dining or reclining.
The dramatic Sierra de Laguna mountain range frames your panoramic view to the east of the house while you are hearing the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean a few steps west. If you can get away in the months of November through March you will become proficient in spotting the playful gray and humpback whales as they gracefully glide along the Baja coast. Perhaps you would like to hold a turtle hatchling – the beach is home to the Olive Ridley nesting grounds and the turtles are released at sunset.
Perhaps the unique song of the local bird referred to as the bird of a hundred voices will serenade you from his nest in the nearby palm trees. Pelicans, egrets and herons can be seen. The casual bird watching is fantastic.
You may want to meet the local fisherman when they jump the waves at the local beach in their pangas with their fresh catch of the day and bring some yellowtail or dorado home for dinner on the patio.
We are a few minutes by car or a ten minute bike ride to the town of Todos Santos, a Pueblo Magico, where you can find organic fresh produce, many excellent restaurants and several galleries displaying the work of local artisans. Although there is broadband access to the internet, and a flat screen TV – when is the last time that you had the real Milky Way on your visual screen? You may realize that you have never seen so many stars. You may not want to return home…

Amazing stay, so close to the beach and very secluded. Arron was an amazing resource, the casita was very clean and well equipped. Would definitely recommend staying at this location
Our family of three thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! We loved being so close to the ocean and appreciated the beach towels and chairs for guest use. The grounds are well maintained and kitchen had everything we needed for making our own meals. Property managers were very responsive and met us at the casita upon arrival. We would highly recommend staying here!
Very comfortable for our 4 person family. The layout of the house works great to that number of persons. Beach is a few steps away and the sunsets and whale watching is great.
Steps from the beach. Fantastic surf fishing right out front.
Todos Santos is a special location. Super comfortable accommodation. Our local contact was really helpful and has great knowledge of the area.
We so enjoyed our stay at your home! Andrea is extremely responsive with answers to questions and Aaron is a wealth of knowledge at check in. Delightful to visit with. Proximity to the ocean is perfect, quiet location, stars and whales did not disappoint! Would definitely stay here again!
This place is a gem. It’s super close to the ocean (literally just a few yards!). All the necessary amenities needed for Todos: functional kitchen, spacious bathroom, simple bedroom - and all with a nice view of the outdoors. Easy to find and perfect place to enjoy outside.
Easy check in process. The casita was very clean and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with what we needed for prep. The location was quiet but close to town. We really enjoyed having such a short walk to the beach for sunset. The garden area was perfect for morning coffee. Can't wait to visit again!
The casita was just what we needed to handle those few extra guests and give them a nice, quiet, private respite from the rest of our group. It was comfy and cozy! Thank you!!
It was a great experience all around. Thank you, Andrea and especially Aaron, for such good care and being so attentive to our needs. You guys are awesome! And thanks for the recommendations that proved to make an even better vacation.
Beautiful house with everything you need to make amazing meals
Beach towels, chairs and umbrella provided too! Gorgeous garden provided shade
Layout is perfect for families or 2 couples each having their own bathroom
Only part that was so so is that it was a bit far from town, too far to walk
The Casita was just as described. Aaron was prompt with responses. The Casita is close to town and in walking distance to the beach. It was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The outdoor space was amazing. The only suggestions I have are: update the directions and add some playing cards/board games.

Patrice I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay and our guest house. Cards and games on the way next week! Please come back and stay with us again
Very clean, great location. This guesthouse is quaint and in a great location. You need a car to access it. It is right beside the beach with no beach views but you hear the waves. Perfect for a small family or 2 couples. Has access to a laundry room, awesome beach umbrella, chairs and boogie boards. Very helpful and accommodating property managers. I’d go back.
Very nice casita. Clean, functional, with a top location (on the beach, close to city center). Perfect for our short workation. The wifi does work great.
Also: very nice property manager. Efficient communication and overall service. Highly recommend.
This was the best experience we have ever had with a short term rental. We spent a month in the Casita which was well stocked with all we needed. The landscaping was beautiful and furniture comfortable. The location was perfect - steps from the beach and walking distance to a grocery, several restaurants a yoga studio and pickleball courts. Management and host were very responsive. We would love to visit them n the future.
Great beach location to savor after business in Cabo and a quick run to Todos Santos. Couldn't get enough looking at those waves at our doorstep. A can of WD40 may be helpful for those exterior doors and locks and the gate opening outside.
We were two couples who decided to have a non-traditional Thanksgiving in Todos Santos. So glad we did!! The casita is perfect for two couples or a family of 4-5. It is well located close to town and steps away from an amazing, endless beach for long walks and taking in the gorgeous sunsets. You can hear the ocean waves at night and birdsong in the morning. It is a phenomenal getaway, yet close to fantastic restaurants, shopping, activities galore. We were very well looked after by the property hosts. We will be back!!
Fantastic casita steps from a beautiful beach (one house away). It's a great place to hang inside and out, close to the beach and a short, easy drive to town. The water was too treacherous to swim in, but the whales loved it. There are so many whales so close—often 10-20 feet from the surf. Bottled water is provided, and a well-appointed house with the best showers. It's as magical as it looks. Our first choice next time we visit. Thanks, Andrea/Aaron.
Andrea's home was perfect for us. It was great having 2 separate bedrooms with en suite bathrooms at either end of the house, and we enjoyed spending time on the patio, lounging and eating breakfast outdoors while listening to and watching tropical birds. We especially loved being close to a wild beach with so few people! We enjoyed lots of walks on the beach.
Our on-site host, Aaron, provided a wealth of great information introducing us to Todos Santos. We had a long day of travel and arrived in the evening, hungry, thirsty, and tired. Aaron graciously stocked the fridge and pantry with some beer, milk, and coffee and directed us to an excellent restaurant nearby, where we had our first dinner.
We would highly recommend this place to others seeking a quiet place near the beach in Todos Santos.
I hope you update your place, so future travelers can take advantage of the great location if they're in the food, walking and relax mood. The sunsets were amazing almost every single day during our 30 days stay. The restaurant choices in Todo Santos are plenty and even with just restaurant disappointment visits, every single dish was well prepared and serviced. People in BCS are so friendly that you want to move there. It should be posted that the property is surrounded by agricultural fields and a back road, that brings a good amount of dust to the outside furniture and the casitas doors have to be closed most of the time. Your insight guide was well done and with good recommendations.

About the host
Hosted by Andrea Metkus
We are a San Francisco Bay Area family. We love Mexico and especially our town TODOS SANTOS. From the moment you land at the airport and feel the warm breeze, you know your vacation will be a special one. The town is charming, full of friendly people, great restaurants, shopping and art galleries. Outdoor activity awaits you or if you prefer curl up with a book or lounge on the patio.
Why they chose this property
We love the beach and mountains and wanted a real get-away...we built our 2 homes from the ground up with TLC.
What makes this property unique
The location at the beach feels worlds away from downtown Todos Santos...yet you are just moments away from great food and plenty to do.
