Evening view of the Honeymoon Hut and pool
Location: La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico (On the Beach 15 Minutes from Downtown La Paz) View Map
Accommodations: Cottage, 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
We call it the Honeymoon Hut, but this little jewel of a guest house can be your waterfront getaway any time you want to unplug and unwind.
Not for the disco divas and party-hearty tourists, we cater instead to people like you: thoughtful, busy people who want the time and place to rest, relax, and rejuvenate themselves. Our guests have come to begin new relationships, celebrate marriages, or just enjoy the healing peace of living a life where time is measured by the sun and sea, and not by calendars and clocks.
What can you do here? Almost anything you want, from walking on quiet beaches and mangrove forests to kayaking, to driving into town for dinner or ice cream. You can wade, windsurf, swim in the sea or in our salt-water pool, or just go searching for shells - we’ll even let you borrow a pail and shovel.
After dark, you can wrap yourself in one of our soft, white robes, and enjoy evening coffee on the deck, while watching the city lights flicker across the water. Later, you can go back inside to your cozy reading nook, and curl up with a favorite novel, or use our free Wi-Fi to check on things in the ‘real’ world, before slipping into the blissful softness of the 400-thread count cotton sheets that adorn your wicker sleigh bed.
In addition to free Wi-Fi, the air conditioned Honeymoon Hut comes with a fully equipped kitchen and a spacious bathroom with plenty of hot water for your shower. Drive into town for dinner, or just buy groceries and cook ‘at home.’ If you’d prefer to picnic, we’ll provide canvas and teak sand chairs, a miniature market umbrella, a cooler for your food, and directions to our favorite beaches.
The neighborhood is surrounded by a federal biological preserve, and the far end of the beach plays host to a research institute. Sixty species of birds, including a pair of Great Horned Owls, make their nests here, and you’ll see osprey and hawks enjoying the wind currents over the house and pool.
Cancellation policy: 30 days and 45 days in December.
This property and owner are properly registered with the Mexican government.

Why the Owner Chose La Paz
We were already living in El Comitan when we sold our first house and moved two blocks and a world away and built on the beach. La Paz is a Mexican town, the home of eco-tourism. It has a slow, peaceful pace. A lovely malecon, fine dining, espresso shops, a 15 screen theater, and lots of gorgeous crystal clear waters for snorkeling and diving We are surrounded by a biological preserve, and have a gorgeous, ever changing view of the sea and La Paz,especially the city lights. When we walk the beaches, we walk in the footsteps of Jacques Cousteau.
When you come to the HoneyMoon Hut you are visiting our home. You will have all of the privacy you want. We are here to make your stay perfect. We want to share the special beauty of La Paz with as many people as we can.
Owner's Map of La Paz
My husband and I came to La Paz in 2000 we left Silicon Valley with our hair on fire. My daughter started a poll among our clients to get their opinion of how long I could stay away. No one thought it would be more than 6 months before I returned to the "action". Well 9 years later we are still here!
We built our dream home on the beach in 2005 which includes the HoneyMoon Hut. We decided to start offering it as a vacation cottage in 2008. Within minutes of listing it we had our first guests who called to say they were coming the next day for 10 days! And we have been very busy ever since.
We have guests that return often, and those that plan on returning. Everyone has been a delight, and they have left lovely notes in our guest book.We have made the HoneyMoon Hut a perfect retreat full of the amenities that we often found lacking in our travels: extra pillows for the bed, (you get 6), bedside tables and bedside reading lamps(we provide 2 of each). We make sure you have lots of extra wash cloths, a completely equipped kitchen. the latest issues of the local papers, maps, and guidebooks. We will recommend tours,cafes,restaurants, and help make reservations for you.
I write for many print and electronic magazines and have a blog that my gusts say they love to read. My husband is the science editor at the biological research agency at the end of our beach. He walks to work along the beach, and walks home for lunch.
