We were booked for 31 days. The home was very welcoming,clean and attractive. Unfortunately my husband became very sick and we had to be taken to a Hospital in Cabo. We only had 3 full days in Los BarrilesDoug and Terri were very kind and helpful. We are very sorry that we lost our vacation.

Peggy, thank you for a kind review. We hope Tom is doing better!
Doug and Terri are wonderful hosts! The sweet pups are an extra bonus. The room is large, very clean and well stocked. We would definitely stay here again!!
Doug and Terri are great hosts. Upon our arrival, Doug gave us a tour of the property and explained all of the amenities. He rents ATV’s at the best price in town.

Bill, thank you for your kind words, you are welcome back anytime!
Doug & Terri and their furry friends were such wonderful hosts - so warm and welcoming. A great place to stay, had everything we needed comfortable and clean. Just a few minutes walk to the beach and all that Los Barriles has to offer. Hope to be back one day soon!
Doug and Terri have a perfect, peaceful and yet so close to the action. Beaches, restaurants and bars are all close by and within walking distance. Loved my stay and will miss those little doggie greetings!

You two were a pleasure to host, you are welcome back anytime!
Once in a great while, you find a vacation area that touches your heart and your soul. That was Los Barriles. And you're lucky enough if you can find accommodations that also deeply touch you in the very same way.
Look no further because the accomodations at Casa Dulce Vida made me feel like I was home.
Terry and Doug were the most perfect hosts and I felt completely comfortable from the very beginning. There home is situated in the most perfect location, close to everything and within walking distance to most of the restaurants. And I fell in love with each one of their dogs who lovingly greeted me when I returned home! Two wonderful weeks and I so wish it had been longer!
Thank you so much again for my wonderful home away from home! I hope to return as soon as I can!

Baby Moon in Baja
We had a great time at Doug and Terri's place in Los Barriles. We spent 2 glorious weeks there. The weather was perfect and my husband got to kite 11 days straight which is unheard of.
Doug and Terri's place was awesome. Clean, great location and had all the amenities that spoiled Americans want. It's difficult to find a king size bed in Los Barriles but Doug and Terri's place has one. Especially important when you are 7 months pregnant. Very comfortable not to soft but just firm enough. And great sheets which is a plus. Also and the biggest perk for us is the water. You can drink it right out of the faucet. You don't have to worry at all. Again I'm pregnant and have to worry about everything and drank it the whole time. Also HOT showers. We always had hot water after a long day at the beach. And GREAT internet. It can be spotty at a lot of places in Los Barriles but not here. My husband had to work remotely so a must have when gone for 2 weeks. We NEVER had slow or spotty Internet.
The location was great. My husband and I opted to not get a car this trip hence why we wanted to stay downtown. Usually we would just rent a 4 wheeler quad to get around but with me being pregnant we decided it was not safe enough so we just walked everywhere. Doug and Terri's place is very convenient to the beach, the grocery stores and to all of Los Barriles's great restaurants. Also Doug picked us up from the airport and brought us back so why did we need a car? If we had decided to rent a quad for the day Doug and Terri have one available for daily and weekly rental. Again all the amenities you need right there.
The only 2 things that would have made it the most perfect place ever was if there had been outside storage for my husband to store and lock up his wet, sandy kiting gear and a blender. When you are a kiter this perk is key. And I like to drink smoothies and what if you wanted a Pina Colada or Margarita😜.
Last but not least they have the two cutest dogs Fred and Friday. We enjoyed having them around. They are super cute and friendly.
We will hopefully be back next year. And we would love to stay at Doug and Terri's Place. Plenty of room for a baby also.

Kate, thank you for a wonderful review and we now have a blender for your next visit!
Doug and Terry were very welcoming and very hospitable, we felt safe staying at their place, the studio is clean and the bed is comfortable.
Los Barriles is quiet town, the locals are friendly and helpful.
We recommend this place very much.
Doug and Terri are the most compassionate and truly wonderful couple in Los Barriles !! We loved the property which was very comfortable and accommodating... but truly Doug and Terri and their furry friends are the reason we will return. We had a little bump in our travels, but everything turned out well. The people in Los Barriles, the food, and the views are ever lasting impressions in our hearts. Don’t forget to rent a quad for a great adventure up and down the coast.
Doug and Terri were great host and the stay was really nice. Great place to stay and will definitely stay there again when we go back.

Beautiful place to stay!
Doug & Terry are the best hosts for your stay in Los Barriles! We could not have chosen a better place for our 2 week stay. Loved having the quad to explore Los Barriles and beyond. The suite is extremely clean and has everything you need and a very comfortable king size bed. Going to miss you both and hope to return someday. Thank you, Karen & Terry from Port Hardy BC

Wonderful Stay!
The studio is sparkling clean and has all the comforts of home. It's even better than the pictures! It's within walking distance to downtown. The owners are friendly, hospitable and knowledgeable, about great things to do in the area. The roof top terrace is a nice place to hang out for sun during the day and peaceful in the evenings. They also have quads to rent on the property and very helpful, checking to assure your stay is going well.

Great vacation rental
I rented casa dulce vida for the second time in Los barriles baja. Great quiet peaceful rental. The place is loaded with everything a person needs for a long or short vacation. The bed is really comfortable so getting a good night's sleep is no problem. Los barriles has miles of beach to explore and relax on with warm blue water to take a swim in. September is a slow time of year for the town. I give doug & terri a
A + they are friendly people and they keep their property up.

great hosts, great location, everything you need
We stayed here for 6 days and couldn't have been happier. The place is spacious with a large bed, a sofa, and a full kitchen and bath. It was perfect for the 2 of us. It sits about a block from all the restaurants and a small grocery store so you are right near everything you need, but it's nice and quiet nestled in the little neighborhood. Doug and Teresa are wonderful, super friendly hosts. We took advantage of their airport service which is great. We will def be staying with them again. Loved the pups too. Thanks for the hospitality!

A Perfect Studio For A Los Barriles Baja Vacation
This was my first time in los barriles baja. I had a great time staying at casa dulce vida rental. Doug & terri foster are friendly people. Los barriles is a pretty awesome small quiet, relaxed fishing and kite surfing town. Casa dulce vida was a really quiet rental safe & secure. doug and terri are pet lover's they have 2 small friendly dog's and a cool little parrot. The studio is very spacious with air conditioning to keep cool and a comfortable bed to sleep well. Also It has a full kitchen. The location is really good walking distance to town and the beach. They even have quads to rent. You'll get a better deal if you rent from them. Unless you rent a car. I definitely will stay at casa dulce vida again.
