LOVED this casita!

Elizabeth was so helpful and gave so many great recommendations for places to check out while we were visiting and all of her instructions were very clear and thorough - the proximity to the beach was a HUGE plus, the yard was great for our dogs the house was stocked with everything we could have needed! we would LOVE to stay again the next time we come back, it was so homey pleasant, truly our best stay in Puerto Peñasco yet! **tip for visiting the area if you’re a light sleeper: earplugs are a lifesaver at night! it’s a quiet neighborhood here, however the nearby bars off-road vehicles can still be a bit loud at night :)

Perfect place for our family

Loved staying here with our two kids and dogs. The fenced in yard was nice for everyone to run around while we could sit on the patio and enjoy coffee and games. The place felt really homey. It is super close to the beach and some great restaurants. Elizabeth was an amazing host and we will definitely be back again! We didn't want to leave!

Beautiful getaway casita

This charming casita felt like a home away from home. When we travel we like to have the amenities of home and this place was perfect. The patio was perfect for morning coffee and enjoying the local paper. Close to shops and restaurants, but still in a quiet neighborhood. Loved our stay!

SWEET little hide-away, near everything!

My husband and I really enjoyed our two night stay. It was so nice to bring our dog with us instead of boarding her while we were gone. We thought the location was great. Very quiet neighborhood with security guards on duty. It was a nice surprise when I found a can of coffee in the cupboard as I had forgotten to bring any with! Thank you for a memorable stay.
