About this property

Beautiful beach front home in Ensenada, Mexico. Paradise Found!

In the early 1990's my parents began taking the family to Ensenada, Mexico and Baja Beach. Shortly after they decided they wanted to build a vacation home on the beach with one thing in mind, a gorgeous view of the Pacific Ocean. With simple goal in mind, this house was built.

This pristine, (approx) 2000 square foot house is located on the beach just south of the cruise seaport of Ensenada, Mexico.

The home has three bedrooms and two baths, which sleeps 8 comfortably and sits upon one of the most beautiful, undisturbed, sandy beaches in all the world. The home has all linens, a full kitchen including a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker and toaster oven. Need to wash the dirty beach towels after a full day on the beach, head to the basement where you will find a new full size washer and dryer. The family room has a 60' LCD TV with Netflix and a DVD player and a stereo. The master bedroom has a 47" LCD TV with Netflix and XBOX 360 which plays DVDs too.

The house is located minutes away from the famed 'La Bufadora' famous for snorkeling, diving, shopping, and one of the largest 'Blow Holes' in North America.' This is four-season paradise for outdoor lovers, winter snowbirds and warm weather vacationers alike.

Down-town Ensenada is just a 45-minute drive from the house where you will find five-star restaurants, duty-free shopping, night clubs, surfing, and sports fishing and people watching. It's a world of Mariachis, and salsa, exotic foods, culture, and it's practically in San Diego's backyard. So near, so easy, and yet so foreign. Ensenada is frequently visited by cruise ships.

The home has some of the most majestic, panoramic views the Pacific Ocean; that includes some of the most breath-taking sunsets, anywhere in the world from almost anywhere in the house. Whether it's taking a long walk on the beach, playing in the surf, sunbathing or simply taking in one of the beautiful sunsets; you are guaranteed to find this house relaxing. The Smith Family.

We hope you enjoy our house as much as we do!

Wonderful weekend

Spent a 3 day weekend here with another couple. Beautiful property right on a great beach. Can’t wait to go back! Only recommendation is a water hose to spray off outside. Loved that our fur babies could come along and they LOVED the beach! Lots of room to run and play or plop and meditate!

Perfect Beach Getaway

Our family had a wonderful time at the beach house. Loved the location-- direct access to the beach (short walk). The house was as described, the owner had very detailed instructions that we just referred to throughout our stay if we needed something. My husband was able to watch football games. No issues with getting hot water. Short drive (15 min.) to the Bufadora. Overall our family had a very comfortable stay.

Staying in beach house

We enjoyed our stay in this location. The host was very informative, check in was easy. House is nice and clean. The only complain we had ( which might be out of control of the host) is we had quite a bit of ants in the bedrooms ( no food around) and they got in our luggages, however after using bug spray it got little better. I also have to mention that there is not hot spa as listed on the amenities list and no kids bowls or utensils also listed. Lastly we were bothered by having to strip all the beds including sheets and pillows and bringing it downstairs towards washmashine, I feel like the cleaning fee should cover that and we have never have to do that before.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 June 2024
Derek, my apologies for the oversight on the spa and kid's utensils. Neither of them should have been noted on the house. However, thank you for the feedback as a few plastic plates and small plastic cups can easily be added. For the ants, yes, they are a problem, anything with sugar they will find . I mentioned this in the instructions, we always put sugary items in the refrigerator as they have yet to find their way in there. As for stripping the beds, we've asked guests to do this for years as a kind gesture to the maid as laundry usually takes the longest especially with all the sandy towels. My apologies if you felt this as excessive.

Beach, Beach, Beach

Pros FABULOUS, long and wide beach just a few steps away. Usually deserted. Clean. Lovely house. Reasonable mattresses. Well equipped kitchen. Great terrace for beach viewing and sunsets. Helpful and responsive host. Cons Ugly deconstruction debris by terrace. No curtains or shades to shut our afternoon sun to keep cool or watch TV or use any of your devices. No table on the terrace for dining. Smells and smoke. In the evenings and early morning there is often smoke from burning trash as well as a sewer gas smell. It usually dissipates by 9:00 am. Considerations The tap water is safe to drink but tastes awful. Buying water is easy and cheap, but lifting the 50 pound jug could be difficult for some people. There are steps to negotiate to go up to the master suite, kitchen, and dining area. If you are unable to do steps it would be a problem. The smoke could be a problem for those who sensitive to air quality. La Marina restaurant up the road is a nice place for drinks, a bite to eat, and to watch the World Series.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Nov 2024
Donna, Thank you for the review and feedback. We too love the beach, while all beaches in Mexico are public, this one seems private. As for the construction debris is recent, not from our house and is not on our property so we unfortunately don't have much we can do until its removed. My in-laws built the house for the views 30 years ago for the sunsets, putting up curtains would block the view, so we resist putting up any curtains. Michael Smith

I stayed there fifteen years ago a number of times and the property has been kept up and improved.

We had a wonderful time with our parent for their 60th anniversary. The beaches were quiet and clean! Everything worked well in the home. Thank you!

Great house!!!

My family came down for the Baja 500. We stayed in this house about 22 yrs ago. This house is incredible.. The kitchen has everything you need even some spices. The view is amazing. Close to town, La Bufadora and restaurants. We will definitely be back next year. Thank you

Very private and very clean. Extremely comfortable

We had a group of five, including 3 teenage boys. There was plenty of room and plenty of activities to keep them happy and occupied. The views from the house were amazing. No matter where you are at in the house it seems you always have a great view of the beach. We loved the privacy of the property and the beach. But still not to far from some good food and stores. We highly recommend this property to anyone . Great times

Had a great time! Family friendly paradise!

We are from Central Valley California. A family of 7 adults on a family trip to visit relatives and learn our roots. Upon our arrival we were driving up the dirt road (punta Banda)and were kinda worried about the area because it was getting dark and close to sundown. But don't let that drive in fool you, remember, it is Mexico. We walked in the front door and our mouths dropped on how beautiful the view was with the sunset! The property has plenty of amenities and linens were fresh and clean. There was no worries with insects or bugs inside the home. Restrooms were good size. The showers had hot water and no issues. I would like to have had more privacy from the bathroom windows but it was ok. Plenty of dishes and utensils to use and cookware to cook with. A blender for the margaritas! Just remember, don't drink the water! The dishwasher was awesome because it was very quiet! We had great memories and kids enjoyed themselves! Beds were comfy and we were able to watch the hockey playoffs as well! Groceries were not too far away. Don't forget to get firewood! Costco and Walmart are about 15-20 min away. Prices are crazy awesome to buy groceries. The Bufadora was real close too. You have to go try the tacos at el zaparzo. Yummy! I wish we went to porta Nuevo. I head they have lobster there. We always visit cazuelas for breakfast. We stayed 5 days. I would be totally surprised if someone was dissatisfied with this property. I 100% recommend this property! It is not the ritz but it is a nice place. We would, no , we will be returning here for another vacation soon. The communication was easy and owner was very nice. They use PayPal instead of vrbo and it was a safe and a secure transaction. I paid a regular rate and was not given a discount for this review

Great location for quiet on the beach getaway

Well the first day we arrived at property there was a wind and rain storm in Ensenada that day and there was no power to the house this home relies on power to run everything lights, water etc. Made a call to owner as it was getting dark and cold at that point, Michael answered my call and within 20 min had the power up and going we had no other issues with power for the next 5 days. The water system is a well type so you need to be kinda careful with using water I.e long showers etc. We made a call to associattion while we were ther and they filled for remainder of our trip. House layout and the outside Patio area gave you full views of the ocean daily and we used the outside fire pit and outside BBQ every night. All in all great house and location for our trip.

The best beach vacation value on the west coast.

Great customer service, well kept house, fantastic beach and the adjacent bird sanctuary makes it even better. I have been bringing my wife and four kids here almost every year for the last 10 years. We love it. Nice clean white tile floors, modern layout, the master bedroom is great! Stocked with beach toys and towels saves hauling all that down. Everything works. Nearby HOA maintenance people are terrific at solving problems and easily available. We love it! Try Mama Bear Pizza for some local high quality gringo food and Vonny's Fleet for fishing.

Relaxing spacious home

Very pleasant experience over all. My only complaint would be the low water level alarm that went off once at a early morning hour around 3 AM. And twice after that. The house was very clean except the rear windows that where filthy. Tried to contact owner via e mail to possibly get someone out to clean them with no response. Ended up cleaning them myself. Besides these two issues,the place is great!

WOW! Amazing beach home

Take your breath away views from inside and outside this amazing beach home. The home had everything needed for a great family vacation at the beach. Collecting sand dollars, boogie boarding, making s'mores by the fire and playing in the soft fine sand were the kids favorites. Relaxing, reading, walking the beach and watching the big show (sunset) every night were the adult favorites. When we went out for the day the best part was coming back to the house. Opening the door and stepping inside you would gasp seeing the view. Once at the house you did find paradise. Thank you for a great time. Best Regards, Rose

Perfect

This place was perfect for our family! We did a lot of boogie boarding, hiked the bird trail, hiked the beach, went hot potting on the beach to the south, saw the blow hole and had some great meals. It was amazing to wake up to a sunrise right from one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept on. Nice selection of dvds and books. The Best fish taco stand just before the turnoff down the dirt road to the house. Its on the north side of the road. Fun to shop in the local mini markets. Paradise for sure. Just needs a surfboard or two...

Relaxing and Serene beach front home

My husband and I enjoyed the house with our 2 boys (5 and 10). We pretty much had the beach to ourselves. The house has all of the amenities of home (towels, pots, pans, plates, etc) plus wifi throughout the house as well as netflix. There is a BarBQ pit in the back yard which made it convenient for us to have a nice cook out. Michael is an awesome owner and made himself available for any questions we had - he was super helpful. I would definitely recommend his home to anyone interested in vacationing at the beach in Ensenada.
