Calycanto Casitas - Todos Santos Escape

Description from the owner

Tasteful in every detail and appointed with modern amenities, CalyCanto Casitas presents you with three spacious and fully furnished villas that can be separately rented or rented together. This listing is for one (Casita de la Tortuga) but others are typically available as a lavish boutique resort community takes shape on five gently sloping acres of desert terrain, 700 yards above the Pacific Ocean. The property is located near La Pastora, 2.5 miles from the town of Todos Santos, offering magnificent ocean views and generous terraces. All in a spacious yet intimate setting.

Embodying the architectural heritage of Mexico, rustic design... seamlessly blends with modern conveniences to stimulate the senses. Expansive and richly appointed, each casita offers an indoor-outdoor flow, with colorfully painted designs and finishes, decorative wrought-iron, and antique mesquite furniture painstakingly handcrafted by Mexican artisans.

Walk barefoot on Saltillo floors. Enjoy breakfast on colorfully hand painted Talavera tiles. Siesta in a hand-woven hammock for two as gentle shadows from the Palapa roof drift across the room and the ocean breeze blows gently across the terrace. Take an indoor/outdoor shower while watching the silhouette of Royal Palms and native catcti dot the sunset.

These lavish accommodations offer the perfect rooftop vantage point to contemplate the moon’s reflection on the deep blue waters of the Pacific. From the master bedroom or your private terrace, gaze upon a pristine, white sand beach, or simply enjoy a refreshing siesta in one of the shaded hammocks under a Palapa. Or, if you prefer, enjoy a moonlit dinner on your private terrace before you sneak inside to the comfort of 500 thread count sheets.

While some guests choose to never leave the premises, others prefer to participate in limitless adventure and exploration. Look out your window to watch the annual migration of the Humpback and Gray Whales or check the surf. Witness pottery being first hand, with the same process used for centuries in the nearby Sierra de la Laguna mountain range. Take a Yoga or a Spanish class in the timeless town center. Savor some of the best restaurants in Baja. Relax to a custom compilation of music in your own sensuously elegant and comfortably spacious private palapa.

CalyCanto Casitas are not about high-speed internet or cable television (although broadband and a flatscreen TV is certainly available). What we offer is an escape to simplicity, a path to tranquility, a destination where time stands still. Where you can be lulled to rest by the rhythm of waves in the distance or simply lean back and look toward the heavens to gaze at the shimmering stars. Where you can share and build memories. Where you can find yourself.Read more

  We really enjoyed the change of pace from an all inclusive to a cottage/home setting. A short drive to get practically anything you needed, from alcohol to fresh produce & groceries, to a short walk to miles of Pacific Ocean practically to yourself to watch hump whales play made this a very pleasant and relaxing week.
