Vista Hermosa means spectacular views in Spanish and this is truly a fitting description. Quiet Elegance. Located less than 10 min. South of Rosarito. Longer term preferred, but one week minimum ok.
The small , gated and exclusive oceanfront community of MARENA COVE only has about 25 homes to boast and all are individually crafted-, special custom homes; half directly facing the ocean front with exquisite locations and the remainder on splendid 'second row' locations.
Located about ten minutes South of Rosarito in Baja California Norte, Mexico and less than one relaxed hour driving from the San Diego US-Mexico border crossing. Freeway-access nearby.
This gated community is an excellent mix of upper/middle income locals and Expats, overwhelmingly from California. Apart from the quiet elegance it offers through the home settings, (ocean front second-story with stunning views of whales, dolphins, pelicans, seagulls and many other seabirds) , the community offers a swimming pool and tennis court walking distance (200 yards).
At night, this gated community has security guards patrolling the area constantly. Entire second Story, private and completely separate.
