Host Response

So happy you enjoyed your time Looking forward to your return

My husband and I went to San Felipe with my parents. Upon driving up to the house my dad said “It’s a mansion!” Seriously, the house is gorgeous inside and out. My favorite things about the house were opening up the curtains in the master bedroom in the morning to greet the day, and then sitting in the wicker furniture in the dining area drinking coffee and chatting with my family. The beach is gorgeous and peaceful, but it was too cold to swim unfortunately. The sand is pretty soft and deep, and the beach somewhat steep, so not really easy to stroll along. Definitely go check out the Valley Of The Giants. Very cool!

Thank you very much Karen for making our stay worthwhile, the house is beautiful, clean, cozy... the place is magical, the beach is beautiful at the foot of the house, Karen's attention is spectacular, very kind and answering our questions at all times!!!! I wouldn't change anything about the house. We all left very happy and I recommend it one hundred percent. Thank you for your flexibility with the schedules. We also really appreciate that. We'll visit you again soon.

This is the second time I've stayed at his house. I really liked it the first time, and I liked it even more the second time. You can tell that they invest in maintenance. It's in better condition, it has more TVs, and honestly, it has everything they offer in their listing. Highly recommended.

We absolutely loved this place! You can't get anymore on the beach than this home. You open the door and there it is. It was close enough to san felipe to always run in and grab a delicious lunch but far enough away to feel perfectly safe and peaceful. I felt total confidence that if there was a problem, our host would be on top of it without a doubt. The rooftop is fantastic and the home is very comfortable and functional. The garage was large enough for a full size truck and baja toys. This will be where we stay every time we go to san felipe.

Nothing makes me happier than to have guests who had a wonderful time & want to return to make more memories.

I love this home, how private the beach is, how close it is to the beautiful Sea of Cortez, and the daily awe inspiring sun rises! The home does have “typical mexico” vacation home issues but nothing someone who goes to Mexico should find surprising. The garage was great to secure our stuff and comfortably fit 2 full size crew cab pick up trucks. The kitchen is small but equipped well enough for us to make some amazing food. While we didn’t use the rooftop patio it is huge and amazing. Karen is wonderful to work with. Communicate with her rather than the local managers as the local managers aren’t very engaged. I would have given a 5 star if it wasn’t for the local property manager check in process. They sent us to the wrong house, next door and gave us poor directions. Also, the home is about 20 min south of San Felipe, which we loved but the listing did not even estimate the location correctly.

Host Response

It turns out that the property manager who checked you in was a new employee & has since been schooled in giving correct directions. I have also had the proper location listed on the map. I am glad you enjoyed the stay & looking forward to your return.

Our weekend at Karen’s beautiful beachfront home was amazing! It was very peaceful, quiet and amazing to walk out to the ocean. You’ll enjoy some of the most epic sunrises as we did and a bonfire at night. (The local grocery store sells wood. )The house is very spacious and less than 20 minutes from town. Karen was an exceptional communicator, provided clear instructions and checked in, genuinely cared about our experience as guests. The property manager was also responsive and helpful. A local place we enjoyed was Jugos Manuel, near the Calimax grocery store, who had fresh juices and was very kind! Overall, a nice + tranquil beach getaway!

What can I say about this place is that it is amazing. You are right on the beach. In the morning when tide is low you can cross over to a sand bar. On the sand bar you will find clams, shells and if you lucky a few crabs. There are very few people on the beach. Most we saw were four other families. The house is very big and has lots of room to hangout and spend time together. The roof top was great for stargazing. There are four separate AC units that keep the place cool. Master bedroom is amazing I could spend all day there just looking at the ocean. Now for some issues make sure you don’t get stuck in sand out from of the house. You do need to go down a sandy dirt road to get to the house. Also we had and issue with the water pump in the garage. We woke up and notice water was leaking out of it. Figured some Hose came off and was able to fix it. Call maintenance and the would check it out later. Overall this place is the best and I only wish to be able to stay yearly.

Very close to the beach! The house is well equipped but there is a very strong sewer smell inside the house. We opened the doors everyday and spent as much time outside as possible!

Katie, I am so sorry I am just responding. I was out of town & just arrived home today with my daughter who is recovering from a surgery. I alerted the property managers immediately. They said they had found a problem with the venting which has now been repaired. Did you contact them about that? Also I just contacted the owner (Erick) to tell him about the problem with the directions & it's not OK that it was not cleaned upon your arrival That has never happened before. I will get to the bottom of that. Again my apologies & I appreciate the feedback so this doesn't happen again. If you do return if you contact the property managers for any problems & they aren't immediately resolved please call me. I will handle it for sure! Apologies, Karen

It's a beautiful and very large house. It has a rustic style, with all the amenities. It's 25 minutes after San Felipe. A beautiful ocean view. My family and I will definitely be back very soon.

Wonderful house with a beautiful view.

The house is equal to the photos is super nice, clean, the kitchen and the house in general is very equipped. It has TV in all the rooms, wifi, washing machine, dryer, inlcuso we were touched by beach chairs and to our surprise they have an incredible terrace with grill. The location is great is away from the village is in Playa Punta Estrella and the beach is beautiful, the view is unique and there are no people. The only thing to note is that since it is pet friendly if you have allergies I recommend bringing pills because it smelled a little like kitten and we are very allergic, but nothing that a pill doesn't help to enjoy this amazing house. We had some inconveniences with check-in but they were resolved by dialing directly to Karen who was attentive to all our needs at all times, her attention is incredible. If you come from the south, I recommend telling Karen because otherwise you will drive 35 minutes for the key and 35 back to the house, but once you get there it is worth it. We will definitely be back and recommend it to our entire family.

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for the wonderful comments. I'm not sure what was with the cat smell. I've never had anyone ask to bring a cat although we do have many dog owners who come. With the protocol with Covid cleaning it shouldn't have any smell. I'll have the housekeepers check that. Thank you again, Karen

The house it's just beautiful. 2 large rooms with closets, one huge master bedroom with jacuzzi and beautiful view of the oceans. house has great Wifi and nice surround sound with Dish network. It's next to the beach ,a d it feels like a private beach as nobody was there. location it's 15 mins South of San Felipe Downtown. Overall it was perfect with one exception, when flushing toilets, they took a few tried as the water pressure it was weak and for the 4 days that we stayed there , the house smelled like sewage, it wasn't that bad of a smell but it was there. Hope they fix this soon. Company in charge it maintanence, there were spot on, as soon as I called with an issue they were there within a couple or hours.

Host Response

So glad you enjoyed the house so much. We had had back to back guests for an entire month. The maintenance fell a little behind. I blocked out 4 days this week to have everything checked.

This is by far the most beautiful beach front property we have had the opportunity to enjoy. The water front access is amazing and the private location is perfect. The panoramic view of the water from the house is breathtaking. The was fully equipped with everything we needed and the owners were so attentive whenever we reached out. My only regret is that we could not stay longer but we will definitely be back!!

Host Response

Thank you for the great review

The house is lovely!. We hope to come back soon.

Hi Guadalupe, So sorry to hear about the problem at 3am. Very unusual but I guess that can happen anywhere where there is alcohol involved & that late dealing with uncaring people. Did you notice if there was any water running (toilets, open faucets)? THe property managers are supposed to fill both tanks before your arrival & 2 tanks is enough for several days. I'll have to make sure they are topping them off with each new client arriving. Thanks for letter us know. Have a great holiday season, Mike & Karen

I just want to start by recognizing our gracious host. From the very beginning they were attentive, prompt and very helpful. My wife and I, along with my two lovely daughters, decided this place was ideal given the current circumstances with Covid-19. It's remote enough where you're not around large crowds and the beach is isolated. Perfect. There are supermarkets about 10 miles from the house. Great for grabbing all the essentials and food for cooking. Unfortunately, lots of places were closed so our stay mainly consisted of hanging at the house and by the beach. However, that had very little impact on our experience. The house is fully furnished and fully equipped and very clean. The sand is literally a few steps away from the backdoor of the house. I will recommend waking up to see the sunrise, it's breathtaking. Sitting under the stars as i shared a lovely dinner date with my wife was also very nice. I could really go on about this place. I will definitely be returning. Thanks Mike and Karen.

Eric, We knew from our first conversation that you were a quality individual. We are so happy that you had a memorable experience with your family. We have many families that return each year & make this their location for shared memories with their loved ones. So glad to know you'll be coming back. Mike & Karen
