Message from Casa Playa owner: As the owners of Casa Playa, we welcome you and hope that you have a wonderful holiday on the beautiful Sea of Cortez. For over 20 years we have enjoyed the peace and beauty of this place, the spellbinding sunsets and the charm of the city. As frequent visitors to Puerto Penasco, it became impossible for us to ignore the plight of many of the street dogs suffering from illness, starvation and sometimes outright cruelty. On several occasions we took abandoned, sick and starving dogs back to the United States to be rehabilitated and to find loving "forever" homes.
A few years ago we encountered Barb Mumbach, who operates Barb's Dog Rescue about five miles north of town. She is an incredible woman who has struggled to help these poor dogs in any way that she can . She cares for them at her rescue providing food, medicine, and lots of love. She has also arranged for spaying and neutering, as well as many successful adoptions to the United States.
Your choice to stay at Casa Playa is a significant benefit to these dogs because we have pledge 100% of all rental revenues from Casa Playa to Barb's Dog Rescue.
To the world, Barb is a dog rescuer. To each of these needy dogs, she is their world. Owner requests No Smoking Inside and Pets allowed upon approval. Sheets and one set of bath towels are provided.
House is available for weddings and or parties, with a fee of $1000USD (non-refundable).
For 7 nights the owner requests, if it is a weekend, check in must be on Friday or Sunday not Saturday.
