Location: Cabo Pulmo, Baja California Sur, Mexico (1.5 Hours from Los Cabos Airport, by the Sea of Cortez) View Map
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 2-7)
The Jewel of Cabo Pulmo, a unique, hand-built and hand-crafted home is perfect if you love to welcome nature with doors and windows wide open.
Hand-painted borders decorate the windows and doors. Festive red French doors and windows brighten the main house and casita.
The house has a master bedroom with queen bed and full bathroom. In the living area is a fold-out futon, and/or there is a large, comfortable cot with mattress pad that can be set up, either in the main house or in the garden casita. We provide 100% cotton luxury linens (sheets, bedding, and towels).
The second bedroom is in the garden casita. This casita is located a few steps away from the main house, and is separate and private, with its own queen bed, bathroom and porch. It also has a garden view and comes with coffee maker and grinder.
The view from the house is of the half acre garden of native plants that surrounds the house, like a mini-nature preserve, with abundant birds and other wildlife.
This is a large property, located in the middle of Cabo Pulmo, just steps away from the dive shop and all the restaurants. The garden is surrounded by a 6 foot privacy fence.
The kitchen is well equipped with a gas range and oven, coffee maker and grinder, blender, refrigerator and beautiful tableware. There are two dining areas, one indoors and one outdoors. There is also a gas fired grill adjacent to the kitchen. We provide all paper goods and basic spices.
There is a stereo system, and a TV set for watching DVDs or VHS. We have a library of movies and TV shows available. There is also a satellite system for internet access (limited to browsing and email, not sufficient for streaming or downloading music or large files, though limited phone calls may be made through your Skype account). The house is entirely solar powered.
We provide beach towels, coolers, umbrella, snorkels and fins, and boogie boards for use at the beach. Other sporting equipment, such as kayaks and scuba gear, can be rented at the dive shop, just a few steps away.
The closest beach is a 2 minute walk from the house, in an area with gentle waves and warm water, perfect for the early morning or late afternoon swim. There are many other beautiful beaches close by, accessible by walking or via car.
We would love to welcome you to our one-of-a-kind home in here in a little corner of Mexico.
Please check availability for your vacation dates by dropping us an email or giving us a call.
Cheers,
Scott & Janning Kennedy

Map & Owner's Profile
Jewel of Cabo Pulmo - Charming, Hand-Crafted Vacation Home
Year Purchased: 2006
The Unique Benefits at this House
We both love Mexico, especially the Baja, for its wonderful people, warm oceans and beautiful landscapes. He loves to surf and I love to garden, so this is the perfect spot for us. When we crest the hill overlooking Cabo Pulmo we are looking down on our dream home. As we enter the property, we let go of pressures and stress, take a deep breath, and just relax. It is the perfect home: beautiful but unpretentious, warm, unique, and inviting. We love sitting on the porch and identifying birds and wildlife in the garden, and going up to the roof to watch the brilliant stars at night. We think you'll find it one of your favorite places on earth, and want to return again and again, just like we do.

Julie asked me to add a correction that the enjoyable boat tour with Cabo Pulmo Divers was with "Paco." The name she used above is incorrect. -Janning

Homeowner Response:
Note - There are 2 dive shops with very similar names in Cabo Pulmo. We recommend "Cabo Pulmo Dive Shop" (located in the same building as the Coral Reef Restaurant). It is a different business from the one mentioned by Barbara above.
