About the host
Hosted by Larry Cooper, Los Cabos Adventures
My first visit to Los Barriles was in 1979. I rented a motor home hooked up my 24’ Skipjack sport fisher and headed from Coronado, CA to points unknown with my wife Terri, & 2 kids who were 4 & 2. We had no itinerary and 3 months to kill so off we went for an adventure that would change our lives forever.
First stop, Mulege 7.5 hours north of Los Barriles. Stayed for a week, fished, played, and had fun in Bahia Conception. Next stop Loreto area specifically Puerto Escondido. Stayed 4 days and off we went (not impressed). Next stop La Paz gross, just a big city no charm.
Next stop Los Barriles. We looked at each other and said this is it. Heaven on earth! Found a camp spot right on the beach at the now famous Martin Verdugos Motel & Camping resort. We never moved another inch. We came back every year until 1992 when we were on our way down driving with our last load of building materials to finish our new home when a bus hit our utility trailer causing us to jackknife and roll over. The accident resulted in a spinal cord injury for me and just 3 stitches for my wife. Since then, as a Quadriplegic, designer and builder, I have finished 12 luxury high-end homes including our newest casa and guest Villa, “Villa Tranquillo”.
We welcome you to our “Little slice of heaven” and hope you find it as magical as we do!
In 2007 I started Los Cabos Adventures which is a sportfishing and whale watching charter corporation. We have designed and custom outfitted Mexico's only completely wheelchair accessible sport-fisher.
I now live in the main Villa from October through July. Spending the summers traveling in the high sierras north of Truckee, CA.
My kids are now 45 and 47. We now have 5 grandchildren so the love of Los Barilles will continue throughout our next generations.

Why they chose this property
Sadly I inherited this property from my father who passed away in 2008. I made him visit Los Barriles in 1982 with my mom. I knew they would fall in love with the community, the beaches, and the Sea of Cortez. They loved it so much they began purchasing as much beach front property that was available.
They first went in with 2 friends and built all together on one lot. When they outgrew that situation he purchased Hacienda del Mar which then was owned by one of the Bartels and James wine cooler founders. He proceeded to turn the 1,200 sq ft, 2 bedroom, 2 bath beach house into a 7,000 sq ft 4 bedroom 4 bath Hacienda.
He designed it and contracted it himself using a forward thinking, green, recycled building product called 'In-Steel Panels'. Extremely popular today for its earthquake strength, ER values, and constructed from renewable materials.
He always referred to it as 'his work of art' which is why I have restored it to better than it's original condition updating cabinets doors, furnishings and custom amenities, 2 more suites and an infinity pool with a giant spa. My sisters wanted to sell it, but I could not 'let his work of art go'
Instead, it is up to date and ready for your enjoyment.
