Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
After traveling to Mexico several times in the 1990's, and always appreciating the climate and friendly people of Todos Santos, we decided to purchase oceanfront property in 1999. At that time, there were no other homes in the Las Tunas area. Of course, now there is an entire community of fellow Americanos. We started building in late 2007, and were able to complete and move in August 2008. We enjoy our neighbors, the lovely town of Todos Santos, and the cool tradewinds constantly blowing in off the Pacific. Of course, as you can see, we also enjoy the fishing up around the LaPaz area.

This is our second year and are already planning our third. It has Location, if you like isolated, beautiful, beachfront. It is so very comfortable. The furnishings are too nice for a vacation rental: you feel very indulged! The whales put on a daily show for us. The kitchen is more than adaquate speaking as a house full of "foodies". Loved the roof of Hotel Totos and the happy hour special at Shut Up Franks. Mostly we loved being at the house watching the sunrises and sunsets enjoying comfortable times with friends!

Very nice home with great amenities. We have stayed in VRBO properties in BCS for the past eight years and this was right up there with the best. Great bedrooms each with their own bath. Well stocked kitchen. Great outdoor areas whether its sun or shade you're after. The pool is wonderful! The town of Todos Santos is very close and convenient yet you are out in your own private world with no one to bother you. We had a great time and would love to visit again! Thanks, Jim and Shirl.

We cannot thank you enough, Jim and Shirl, for sharing your lovely home with us. We have rented homes all over the world on VRBO and we have to say that your home would be in our "Top 3 Favorites". Our days were filled w/boogie boarding at Cerritos, reading by the pool, cooking & relaxing. We had Francis & her family cook for us one day and it was fabulous! Ramon took Archie shore fishing at sunset~no fish but lots of laughs. They are a very kind & sincere couple. We took you up on your recommendation of Sunday at Cerritos for live music on the beach and I would highly recommend the massage gazebo located there ~ Victor or Jacky are both excellent. Once again, thank you for making our stay special.

We had an outstanding time at the Villa. With the ocean breeze, and the sound of the crashing waves, our stay was truly exhilarating! The comfortable patio furniture afforded us the opportunity to enjoy a drink and watch all types of sealife. The real plus to us was the quiet privacy provided by this luxurious home. Trips to Cerritos Beach were wonderful what with the swimming, surfing, music and drinks. And, yet, we could leave the hubub and return to our pool and solitude ~ none of the Cabo-type noise. We are bringing more friends with us next year!

If you are looking for an amazing vacation property to relax and enjoy your privacy, this is the place for you! As shown in pictures, the house itself is beyond any expectations and no details were overlooked. You are truly staying in a place that has everything you could ever imagine. As incredible as all that is, the real experience is enjoyed in the outdoors, as it is directly situated on the ocean. The highlights we had were walking the beach, swimming in the (heated) pool, amazing sunsets, not to mention the daily "whale shows" from the patio. It was truly an unforgettable experience. I give it a 5 star rating and can't wait to go back again!
