Our three cottages are strategically placed on a plateau with views of the mountains, and designed for utmost privacy and relaxation. Lay back, relax and soak up the Baja sun around the outdoor heated swimming pool which includes a sandy beach area for sunbathing. The shaded poolside palapa features an outdoor kitchen with wet bar, charcoal and gas barbeque, shower and bathrooms for your convenience and enjoyment.Crystal clear nights provide an opportunity to gaze at the stars and remarkable constellations while sitting around a wood-burning campfire. Coming down here to do nothing, take advantage of our shopping service and provide us with a grocery list to pre-stock your fridge and pantry prior to your arrival. Organic chicken and eggs available for purchase.from the hostess. Rent all three cottages and have the resort to yourselves!...Do not hesitate in contacting us for a holiday that will always be remembered.....
