Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
My wife and I met in college and have always shared a desire to broaden our vistas in every manner possible. We are attracted to the central American lifestyle of friendly, relaxed simple openness. Spending time there is the perfect antidote to our hectic lifestyle in San Diego with 3 young kids. (I have to admit that the amazing surf is a bonus) ;)
Why the Owner Chose Todos Santos
There's something magical about this area, and it draws a certain kind of person that is looking to take it down a notch. The antithesis to Las Vegas! The town has fantastic restaurants and an art presence but is still authentic. Add in the phenomenal weather, incredible beaches, (and surfing), sea life, and easy access from the states, and it just can't be beat.
The Unique Benefits of this House
While the town is fantastic, you honestly won't want to spend much time away from our hide out. Your private beach awaits with the possibility of fresh turtle tracks, or even hatchlings on their way to sea. The views are dynamite.

Alhaja De Gavilon, Jan-Feb 2012

This is a very nice house on a great stretch of beach. We have stayed there twice and love it. Great whale watching from the porch or roof deck of the house. There is a rocky outcrop that runs down to the Pacific a few hundred feet away that offers a unique hiking area. A couple of good restaurants are within walking distance.

Perfect "get away from it all" holiday

My husband and I had a two week holiday at Alhaja with another couple. We wanted a quiet, peaceful house right on the beach - and Alhaja delivered! We spent hours sitting on the porch - watching the whale migration during the day and eating al fresco in the evening. We took long walks on the beach, regularly sipped coffee at Baja Beans, occasionally venturing into town, and meandered to Los Cerritos to watch the surfers and sip Pacificos on the beach. The owners were extremely helpful and responsive. If you are two couples, note that one room is nicer than the other, which is clear from the posted photos. We find that this is most often the case and were pleased that at least both rooms had king beds facing the ocean. If I could make one improvement, I would add comfy outdoor seating - either 4 lounge or adirondack chairs - given the truly terrific porch, and how much time we spent sitting there. That said, it is lovely home, and we wound return in a heartbeat.

PARADISE

Upon arriving to this house is exceeded our expectations and proved to be one of the most relaxing and enjoyable vacations we have ever been on. The location is unique in that you are away from it all and can enjoy some privacy yet can walk along a beautiful beach, or go on a longer stroll to playa cerritos. Our family of 4 (two little girls 4yrs and 2yrs) enjoyed whale citings, baby tortugas, fresh ceviche, lounging in the hammock.... Good pizza and coffee not far away in pescadero and a short trip to todos santos (15-20minutes) meets all your needs. The house felt secure and excellent neighbors as well... thanks for an amazing trip Alhaja!

A Peaceful Vacation

My husband and I stayed at Alhaja with my sister and brother in law. The description of "seclusion" and "away from it all" is what we were after, and happily that is exactly what we experienced. The property was everything we expected and more, clean and well appointed. Peacefulness is what we enjoyed, walks to playa Los Cerritos, kicking back on the patio, having meals al fresco. We were lucky to be there during a full moon and enjoyed the dessert and ocean by moonlight. We discovered a very cool coffee shop "Baja Bean" best coffee, baked goods, wi fi and it's located right at the turn off the highway to go to Alhaja. We would love to return during whale watching season or the turtle season, wonderful family time. We spoke to the owner several times before arriving and they were very helpful with maps and suggestions, and answering any questions we had.

The house is located on a remote, personal beach. The property extends from the thatch covered porch to the crashing waves. The concrete floor will keep you warm at night and cool in the day. An excellent kitchen space extends into a comfortable living room with a view out the glass windows directly towards the sunset. If you don't want to be inside watching the sun set, there is always the upstairs balcony which is our personal favorite. The house is in a remote location but a few minutes in the car will get you to the main town, or if you prefer a beautiful surfing beach. There is no place more beautiful than Alhaja De Baja.
