Casa Ensueno is a property that is hard to beat. The pristine beach, warm water, white sand. While I have stayed in many villas while traveling abroad, this was by far my favorite. We were a family of 9 adults ranging in age from 30's to 60's from the San Francisco Bay Area, celebrating my retirement. We had a blast, only leaving the villa for one dinner out, (Flora Farms..not to be missed) and shops @ Palmilla for fun browsing and groceries at the lovely California Market. The villa had all the amenities one could need. Extremely well stocked from every small necessity to larger unexpected indulgences, as if it were your own home. There is a sound system throughout the interior main living/gathering space, as well as outside patio/pool that we paired our phones to listen to our music playlist via Spotify which enhanced the mood and vacation vibe. The views from all bedrooms is incredible and the unique separation and private entrance to each room, makes it seem like your own personal retreat. The rooms are large, beds super comfy, and each room has double sinks, huge roman style tiled tubs/shower, large closets, sliders to private patio or balcony, each equal in luxury, so no coin toss needed for the better room! Margarita the housekeeper is there daily with smile, to clean, tidy and refresh all bed linens, towels etc., all while keeping a low profile, so you hardly know she's there. The guys played golf a few times at "Puerto Los Cabos" set up by Osmar the pro shop Manager, whom arranged everything...Tee times, transportation. He really took great care of the guys to ensure they had a fun experience.
We have a chef or two among our family, which made meals, appetizers and Happy Hour an event in itself. I know it is not a common luxury to have a family member (my sister) along who has such a passion for cooking and being in the kitchen during a vacation, but we are lucky, and she made it look effortless while still having time to relax and join in all the fun, never missing a beat.
Jack the owners son, was also amazing throughout the entire experience from beginning to end. He lives locally, and was a key ingredient in making sure we had all the contact sources for staff, house manager, transportation, medical info, chef services if desired, etc. Jorge the house Manager, had an incredible spread of food waiting, when we arrived which was pleasingly unexpected.
Many memories made here, many more to come.
Simply splendid!
