About this property

Casa Far Niente Beachfront Home

CALL FOR LAST MINUTE BOOKING DISCOUNTS!!!

Playa La Mision is located on the most beautiful beach in Baja about half way between Rosarito and Ensenada. Also just south of Baja Studios where such films as Titanic and Master Commander were filmed. There is a nearby fishing village where you can buy the freshest of whatever the seasonal catch is that day. Or, if the tide is low enough (anything 0 or lower), you can go clamming yourself right in your own backyard!

If wine tasting is on your agenda, there are many fabulous wineries in Valle De Guadalupe less than an hour away. There are also many 5 star restaurants in the Valle.

The Grand room has a fireplace (small presto logs only), large oceanfront dining room, large oceanfront den and one oceanfront bedroom. Huge gated lot will accommodate any vehicle, trailer, motor home, etc. Large patio has plenty of room for all to kick back, relax, watch the horses ride the beach, and enjoy the best sunsets!
One bedroom has a queen size bed, the oceanfront bedroom has a full size bed, and the den has a queen size sofabed and it's own bathroom. All beds have awesome linens for the best night sleep while listening to the ocean waves! Each bedroom also has a ceiling fan.

Most every Saturday morning at 9:30am (let me know and I will make sure she stops by), you can expect the 'tamale lady' at your door delivering fresh hot tamales for only a dollar. You can also order up a complete, authentic Mexican dinner served right to your oceanfront patio. Catering services are also offered by Boutique Dining.

If you prefer to be your own chef, there are a number of places to purchase groceries, fabulous meats, and fresh seafood, or for a small fee, we can have someone shop for and deliver to you.

Just 40 minutes away from our famous Guadalupe Wine Valley (Valle de Guadalupe) for wine tasting and some of Baja's best restaurants! Our favorites are always changing as chefs change and new wineries pop up all the time, so be sure to ask if you want to know our current recommendations.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was a great stay for my family. We needed a weekend getaway to avoid the fireworks to keep our dogs calm. There weren’t many fireworks at all. Our dog loved the large yard and the beach. Bob and Marla were attentive and not intrusive. The kitchen was well equipped. It was safe and the guard at the entrance was nice. They had a TV in the living room and the other in the den. The grill worked well, but we couldn’t find the grilling tools. The fire pit was great too. We wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you Bob and Marla.

Stay with our family

We enjoyed a wonderful three full days with our two boys who are six and four and our dog. The house was cozy and has everything we could need to cook and relax. The beds were comfy and we made good use of the beach supplies. The hosts were friendly and a pleasure to get to know and we enjoyed visits from their sweet dog Dolce. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer, but we hope to be back soon.

Dreamy beachfront getaway

Marla's house was as amazing as the pictures! The beds were so clean and cozy, the kitchen stocked with everything you need, and the views were incredible. Even though the weather was on the cool side, sitting on the patio and watching the dolphins and the waves all day was just what we needed... Thanks for everything! We will be back again for sure.

Stellar Seaside Cottage

What a gem! Location can't be beat nestled atop a beautiful, entertaining beach nestled just north of Ensenada but at a distance that feels both peaceful and private. Great hosts who delivered local wine, fire pit fuel, and friendly greetings. Truly amazing beachside deck with comfy chairs, easy beach access, and table near an outdoor outlet which is great if you need to plug-in (decent, reliable WIFI too!). Stay comfy and satisfied inside with space heaters and a newly renovated functional kitchen. Décor was quirky and fun with local touches that made the stay feel authentic and unique. Highly recommended! Can't wait to come back.

And you know what they say….location location, location….Right on the beach ❤️ with a HUGE beautiful patio and everything you could ever need to have a wonderful beach vacation! Got to meet Bob, (super nice) he and Marla had left us a nice bottle of Baja wine and some great helpful info on things to do and places to dine and try- So seriously…. the only downside to this rental….was having to go home!

Beach Front Open View Relaxation

We were happy with our stay and the overall experience. We felt very accommodated at this home. It had warm comforters, needed appliances, and was clean when we arrived. The missing star in my rating is only because we had some small dripping from the roof due to the rain. We placed two small buckets for drippings we were aware of, and I woke up to two other puddles inside. Something that was a little different is that the owners do live literally next door with an open passage from one property to the other. They are both very kind.

We loved our stay

We loved our stay at Playa La Mision. Marla and Bob were great hosts - our dog isn't great with other dogs and they kept their dog in their space, they responded to all of our needs right away and they provided us with complementary coffee and wine. The TV broke on our second day, and they went out and purchased a new one and had it installed on the next day. They were great. The house is beautiful too. It's not super modern - it has an authentic feel and is very nice. I read some of the reviews about it being old and run down. It is an older house, but I wouldn't call it run down at all. The kitchen had brand new cabinets, the furniture was comfortable and cared for, and we felt right at home. However, just note that if are used to a king size bed at home, you will feel a bit squished in these smaller beds (I think they are full sized) and my husband and I ended up sleeping in separate beds so we could have enough space to be comfortable. Other that that, we loved everything about the house, the beach, the view, the little towns around.

Great week on the beach!

House was lovely. Well stocked (lots of beach gear!) and comfortable. This was our 3rd stay in La Mission, and first at this house. There was very easy beach access (better than most in the neighborhood) and beautiful sunset views every evening. Bob and Marla were very open and welcoming. We had a great week, and hope to come back again

They helped us find things we were looking for and we really enjoyed their company. Marla was terrific with immediate responses from beginning to end.

What a lovely spot with direct access to the beach. This home has all the basics for a comfortable stay. Marla was great about timely communication and she provides a ton of helpful tips to for local markets to support and areas to check out, especially if you’re into wine. We were able to meet both Marla and Bob, which we appreciated. If you’re lucky you might even get to meet Myella, Marla and Bob’s pup, she made the rounds a couple of times. The beach was absolutely wonderful.

Well equipped and located beach front property!

This was a great weekend getaway for us! The property is very well equipped with everything you could need to have a great time at the beach or having a big cookout! We enjoyed getting to grill every day and have a fire going in the fire pit. I have never seen such thorough and helpful instructions on a listing ever before — everything from crossing the border, getting car insurance, the drive to find the property, recommendations for places to go around town — everything was covered!! There was a bottle of wine waiting for us as a welcome gift!! And something I find very important that most places don’t have — MIRRORS AND HOOKS EVERYWHERE!!! Rental properties never seem to have enough hooks to hang things or full length mirrors to actually see yourself. Seriously, this was a dream of a place to stay. Everything was so thoughtful and we had everything we could need! Thank you!!

About the host

Hosted by Marla Poggioli

Host profile image
My husband & I purchased this house making it ready for your fabulous vacation in late 2013, right next door to our house. Now we have lots of space to 'play' including this deck, which was perfect for his birthday party in June. We live in San Diego most weekdays and are so lucky that we get to come to LaMision every weekend (& sometimes during the week too). We will most likely be there during your stay to answer any questions, invite you to cocktail hour, or assist you in anything you need to make your vacation as wonderful as possible!

Why they chose this property

We chose to purchase this property when we discovered a developer planned to destroy the integrity of our small beach town, in favor of a hotel type of development. We decided to do whatever it took to preserve what we're all about, and the beautiful ocean view that we and our neighbors so cherish.

What makes this property unique

Huge gated yard for your vehicles and toys! Large beachfront patio to accommodate all your friends. We love our puppies and don't charge extra!

Remember, I am a caterer and if your party is too small for a catered affair, I'm always cooking something. So just ask what I'm up to that day and for a small fee, I'll make extra for you! Or, I can hook you up with a local chef if you love Mexican food.
