About this property

Beachfront property -- swimmable beach — accommodates from 2 to 12 people.

This is a magical place in an “off-the-grid” private community. (Solar provides our power, and water is delivered to our cistern). We’re located directly on a pristine, calm beach about 8 miles from San Jose del Cabo on the crystal clear, warm Sea of Cortez. Whale watch, snorkel, kayak, surf, enjoy the sea birds and be as active as you want at this wonderful retreat or reunion spot.

Wedding? Reception? Reunion? Also options . . .

We’re family and small group friendly with a unique combination of spaces spread out over an acre of property. We’ve got plenty of room for personal privacy and whole group activities.

The options are so varied that we can't quote everything here. Our basic pricing covers 2-8 guests in the “Beach House” (description follows). Please inquire if your needs are different. Direct communication can be had and choices adjusted once a reservation is made (this is due to VRBO policies).

Our “Beach House” can be rented as 1-3 bedrooms (BR1: Queen, BR2: Queen, BR3: Full & a twin bed) and has a fully equipped kitchen, living room and 2 bathrooms (one with shower, the other with shower over tub). There is a huge dedicated palapa-covered terraza adjacent to the home and overlooking the beach, plus another patio area. You'll find surfboards, snorkels, boogie boards, volleyball net, beach chairs and board games available for your use. There’s Wi-fi plus a TV with DVD player (and lots of DVDs). New built-in barbecue with tools provided. A real home away from home!

The “Penthouse”” can be added as additional space for larger groups. It's a large, sunny second-story bedroom with 1 Queen and 1 Twin beds, has bath with shower, and small balcony (with ocean view!) To ensure privacy, we do NOT rent this space on its own.

The entire compound is comfortable for a large extended family, yet each area has its own sense of privacy. There are many spots throughout the property to sit (or lay in a hammock!) and relax while enjoying the fabulous views.

Beautiful beach front

We enjoyed our stay at Gloria and Jose’s place. It is the most stunning beach. We brought our kids over Spring break and decided to stay in a home right on the ocean instead of staying at a resort and we are so glad we did! We saw so many whales each day. There isn’t anything around for groceries until you drive into San Jose which took us 4 miles on dirt road and another 4 miles on paved roads which you will find La Comer( a great grocery store) and lots of restaurants to choose from. In Los Zacatitos where the home is located, there is a restaurant called Zac’s. It was really good food and a beautiful restaurant about 8 minutes from the home. We loved it and couldn’t resist the flan at the end of each meal. It is a super safe area and by far the prettiest beach at your foot steps. Gloria and Jose were very kind and helpful. They have a friend that will even bring you a premade dinner which was so awesome one night! We loved her chicken enchiladas. We be paddle boarded and soaked up lots of rays.

Paradise

We spent Christmas with our family and had the best time. The house is lovely and feels like home. We swam, snorkeled, surfed, and relaxed. Gloria is an excellent host, thank you so much!

The Perfect Place

The house is perfect to get away from it all - you can watch whales from the terrace, swim/ paddleboard/ snorkel at the beach right in front, walk along the beach and, if you have a car, explore further up the coast (we didn't bother - we had everything we needed right there in the house and surrounding areas) The kitchen is fully equipped to cook anything you want - my only complaint is that we didn't stay longer! The signal and wifi aren't great but we didn't really care as were too busy enjoying the beach. And you have to be mindful of water and electricity as the house is solar powered - again, a blessing more than anything. 100% will return, zero complaints!

Baja beach house

We had an amazing time. Jose was super helpful and the house was as nice as the pictures but the views were better than any picture.

Absolutely Perfect!

My wife and I, along with another couple, came to 'Pelicanos' for 5 days ... 5 glorious days. The owners -- Gloria and Jose -- the perfect hosts. We had complete privacy (we're all clothing optional couples) and had the perfect time. The house is right on the beach and the supply room is full of paddle boards, surf boards, snorkeling gear, a BBQ and everything we needed to make our stay ... just perfect! From the patio, we saw 10-12 whales (up close, too!), manta rays, seals -- and lots of pelicans! We also had dinner up at Zac's Cafe twice, which was also excellent. We highly recommend 'Pelicanos' for couples and families.

About the host

Hosted by Gloria Lopez Gutierrez

José and Gloria Gutiérrez were born and raised in Los Angeles and are now retired teachers, living in Marin County, CA. We have been spending time in San José del Cabo with our family and friends since 1985 when we could only come for holiday vacations. Now we spend winters in Zacatitos and love sharing our spectacular property with friends and guests. We are usually on-site January to April to see to your needs and allow for your privacy.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the Los Cabos area when we came on an anniversary trip in 1985. We made some great friends that first trip who have inspired us to spend more and more time here. We love our growing community of Los Zacatitos because people here come to get away from the hubbub of city life and to focus on the natural beauty of the East Cape.

What makes this property unique

Playful whales and dolphins, swooping seabirds, chirping songbirds, buzzing hummingbirds can be seen and enjoyed much of the year. Sun rise and moon rise over the Sea of Cortez, sunsets behind the conical mountains of the Sierra Laguna, star-studded moonless nights are often breathtakingly beautiful. Our property has many comfortable places to observe these phenomena with your friends and loved ones.
