3BR house in Tourist Corridor

La Ribera, East Cape beachfront home with pool - Houses for Rent in La Ribera, Baja California Sur, Mexico

A wonderful house facing the sea and away from everything... perfect for relaxing and connecting with nature

Una casa maravillosa en frente del mar y apartado de todo...perfecta para descansar y conectar con la naturaleza

What an amazing location to switch off and just relax. The morning and evenings at the beach were so peaceful with calm waters and perfect sun. During the day when it got too hot we enjoyed the pool which is ideally shaded when the sun moves over the house. Jesus is fantastic as the local POC. Ho hooked us up many times and we even caught a Marlin. Highly recommend.

Yes the place is old, but it is cheaper than similar houses in the area and the atmosphere and mexican vibes make it really enjoyable. Everything works, great beds, plenty of towels, appliences are new and perfect privacy in the pool, peace and quiet. Safe and we had the whole beach to ourselves. Would surely come back!

Lynne's home is stunning, everything we wanted and more. It is located between two towns on an isolated road so TOTAL privacy and yet part of a small development of homes, all with large lots. The beach is so expansive, quiet and stunning. The house is set about 75-100 ft back from the waters edge. Sunrises were beyond beautiful, simply magical. The views from the home are amazing. The ocean is visible from almost every room. The kitchen is well equipped and modern as are the bathrooms. The beds are super comfortable. There is AC in the bedrooms that have a "sleep" setting so can be on but quiet at night. We spent most all our time at the house, with excursions out to restaurants or snorkel at Cabo Plumo (highly recommend this national treasure). We enjoyed the pool, hot tub, large hammock, ping pong table, swimming in the sea and of course, the lounge chairs out by the water. Lynne is a kind and considerate host. She responded promptly always. We hope to stay here again.

This was a perfect beachfront getaway from winter in the north. Very comfortable and beautiful!

Fantastic stay for a quiet week with friends! We appreciated quiet morning walks on the beach, nearby hiking to Cerros Las Coronas, relaxing by the pool, and unusual marine life washed up on shore. Stay was close enough to La Ribera for easy access to taco stands, mercados, and restaurants, but far enough outside that we felt like we had the beach to ourselves. We didn't get any resort-y vibes whatsoever, so exactly what we were looking for, but police vehicles regularly passed by so everything felt safe. We had planned to do more activities away from the house, but found there was enough to do, and it was so relaxing and beautiful, that we only left a few times. We got two dinners provided by the property manager (Jésus) that were great! A common refrain in the second half of our  trip was that we wished we had stayed here the whole time. (Note: The number of beds is incorrect. There are 3 king sized beds and 2 couch beds)

A majestic house right on the water in the Los Pinos area. We had hoped to go wing foiling and kiting right off the beach but the shore break was too strong. It's a short drive to Los Barriles so we went there and enjoyed the many great restaurants as well.

The setting of the house is gorgeous. The house was ideal for us in that we were looking for a beachfront location in a beautiful and fairly undeveloped area. The layout of the house worked great for our group in that the bedrooms are well separated. The house is also very spacious. There were some issues with the pool and hot tub temperature but the owner provided us with an adequate refund for the difficulties. As other reviews described, some things about the house are dated but the positives of the house far outweigh the negatives. it was a splendid location and terrific home from which to enjoy the East Cape.

Thanks for  reviewing the property, happy  it all worked out for you all.

a piece of paradise found! this place! this house, has the best vibe!! great layout, comfy and clean spacious and gorgeous!! what a gem what a location with so much to do! just step out of your door yet this house feels like a home away from home a true getaway with that peaceful easy feeling!! we’ll be back again and again! thanks lynne!

Hi Heather, thank you for such a great review. I’m so glad you appreciated the beauty in this special part of the world. If you come back, I’ll give you 2 days on the house. Best, Lynne

This location is priceless.  It is so quiet, private and peaceful.  Great spaces to enjoy and relax.  Beautiful architecture and ideal layout when traveling with friends.  Some things are in need of repair and renovation but otherwise if you want peace and quiet- this is it!

We had a great time. Felt like a home away from home. Private and close to places and things see and to do. Everyone was helpful.

Unfortunately this house needs TLC. We had no hot water in the 3rd bathroom and the kitchen sink. We struggled using the stove and the sliding doors. The beds are just like other reviews, very very nice. But the “extra” beds over the 3 kings were essentially pads on a bench with no sheets to be found anywhere in the house. For the cost of the house, we will look elsewhere next time.

Our family had a great stay and we are already planning our next visit. The house is in the perfect location and has everything you need for a great vacation. Fernando was incredibly helpful with organizing ATV's, fishing and anything else that we needed. Highly recommend a visit to this beautiful part of the world.

Dave was the best guest ever. So kind and accommodating. I hope he and his family return soon.

Such a wonderful home, situated on a perfect stretch of beach, we felt like we had it all to ourselves! Home has plenty of character and charm. It’s an older home and that has been exposed to the elements over time as others mentioned, but IMO it only adds to the charm. Hope to stay here again some time!

This was our second stay in this beautiful home and we were so happy to return. Lynne’s home has gorgeous views from almost every spot. It’s almost hard to leave!  Fernando and Manuel were very attentive and helpful as well. Do yourself a favor and stay here.

Hi Melanie, I heard about the water issue. The whole community had the same problem. There’s a well that supplies everyone, so it’s out of our control and leaves everyone at the mercy of Luis, who’s in charge. I appreciate you leaving me all the details and being on the  ocean, there are always maintenance issues. I’d like to offer you two nights free the next time you come if that works for you. Let me know. All the best,  Lynne.

Lovely house with 2 separate casitas, plenty of space to hang out, pool and hottub were fun and appreciated, amazing views of the ocean and sunsets.   Close proximity (driving) to restaurants, groceries, activities.  Good recommendations for things to do.

Beautiful location on the beach. Big house with everything you need. Got a bit cold inside on the chillier days as the house doesn’t have heat in the winter. We paid to heat the pool and Hot tub Which was pretty expensive for a week but with the cooler or windy days was helpful.

This home was exactly what we had hoped for. Quiet, private and well appointed layout for our whole family. Instantly felt comfortable in the furniture and beds. Loved the feather comforters. The views were perfect and the palapa on the beach much appreciated

Classic East Cape home. If you like the worn and patina’d thing this is your place. The design is classic and inspiring in all the right ways…. But don’t look for perfection here. Seek something deeper. We found the East Cape pleasant and special. A place you’ll look back on for years to come. The weather was moody, the power went out, the road washed away (twice), and the sunsets amazing. The people are welcoming and warm. We took all the advice and ventured galore. Value wise, look around, there are more modern homes in the East Cape area for equal value. We ran into some issues but nothing that comes close to an unexpected extra week in B.S.C. Specifically the AC was out in the beachfront room the entire stay (and it was very HOT - we couldn’t use it), the listing reads 8 beds but to be clear there are only 3 beds, the directions at the time of our rental are to a house North of Rancho Leonardo (1-2 miles away) and other misc. things I’m sure they’ll address. Overall, go for it if you like “loose around the edges” in a true farmhouse way. The four seasons down the road and Mozza are treats, if that’s your thing. Be sure to visit the VIP lounge behind Casena for a fantastically crafted experience. https://www.mozzabaja.com/

Review for Dustin  There was a torrential downpour and heavy rain in La Ribera area. This caused electrical outages and roads to be washed away. We got a last minute rental and by the time my property manager, Fernando, made me aware of the situation, Dustin and his family were at the house. The electricity had been off so the maids were unable to do laundry or clean effectively. The brand new air conditioner, blew a circuit in the one room. Fernando explained the situation, before they checked in and Dustin said ‘It’s not the end of the world’. I agreed to give them an additional day free of charge. The electricity was now on, but they didn’t want the maids to stay on. The following morning, the maid arrived to clean and they wouldn’t let her into the house. The circuit board had to be ordered and we bought a huge $1000 fan for the room. There are also ceiling fans in all the rooms. We spoke to Dustin several times during their stay and he was having a great time. The last night one of the main power towers went out and there is still currently no electricity in La Ribera. I gave them the refund instead of the extra day as agreed. I do not give coordinates on the website, so I have no idea why he was using them to access the house initially and landed up in the wrong community. He then reneged on our deal and wanted more money refunded.FYI The description very clearly states three separate suites three beds six people +2 additional areas that could be used for sleeping. Never said 8 bedrooms

A truly magical and breathtaking place. We cannot say enough about Lynne’s beautiful home in La Ribera, and cannot stop thinking about it, counting down the days til our return. The home is grand and warm and peaceful, and evokes a Mexican charm and beauty that’s both timeless and surreal. From the beachside pool, to the warm waters of the Sea of Cortez steps away and surrounding desert landscape, it was like being in a movie. We even had a good luck gecko or two come say Hola. We didn’t want to leave and are still dreaming of it’s warm waters and serenity.

Lovely house and location. everything was outstanding, the only issue was a malfunctioning AC, but not the end of the world.

Me and my three girlfriends had the most AMAZING girls week at Lynne’s gorgeous house. There was great communication and we had everything set up for a week of memories we will have forever! We booked massages at the house, had a bonfire, went kayaking, walks on the white sand beaches every morning, had chefs come cook for us all for such an affordable price. The beds are SO comfy and we felt very safe the entire time. This was a trip I’ll remember forever and the house made it all worth it! Thanks so much Lynne for all the great recommendations and help. Can’t wait to come back!

We loved our stay at this magical house and it exceeded our expectations. This is a place to truly escape and submerge yourself into the beauty of the area. We appreciated the simplicity of the house and absolutely loved the layout. Thank you Lynne for the easy communication. Fernando is the best! He organized dinner for us one night…highly recommend. Area and house felt safe. We had everything we needed. The view, the kitchen, the rooms. I will come back to this house many times….could not have asked for anything different. The beds and furniture are comfortable. Every corner has a detail that is simple and beautiful.

Mixed feelings… We had mixed feelings about this rental. There were so many positive things about it yet some things that need attention over time. So for the good. The layout of the home is great. So many places to entertain, sit, relax, and hang out with friends. You have the beach, pool, outdoor fireplace, hammocks, hammock chairs, the living room,’master bedroom sitting room, and dinning room. The only potential thing to be aware of is the two other bedrooms are in casitas outside the main house. So if you have young kids this may not be acceptable to you unless they don’t mind being outside the main house. The beach is excellent and early empty. We did go in the winter (February) and I guess it is world class wind surfing and boy did the wind blow. Now, we have hear that only is a few months, and not every day. But it literally made it difficult to be outside but that wasn’t anything other than Mother Nature. We did leave early and Lynne was excellent offering us either a few free days or a discount if we come back. It was all anyone could ask for. The tv has American dish network so all the channels you could ask for and are used to from home. The negatives of the house are just it is worn. The furniture could be replaced. The doors/windows while folding and opening up the wall of window is great, they are also old and need to be replaced. They are warped and have seen better days. That said, it is set up to entertain and would be great to share with 2-3 couples. It is a much different experience much more like a solitary beach experience. You can rent atv’s and explore the area or beach. The summer I have been told you can paddleboard, kayak, and swim. Due to the wind it was very rough but I hear the summer is opposite. We went to Los brilles, enjoy food and grocery shopping. And we went to the four seasons about 2 miles down the road and enjoy their restaurants. Overall it was a good experience.

Wonderful stay, exceeded all expectations. We enjoyed the kayaks, the great kitchen, amazing beds, time on the bay right outside the back door. Thank you Lynne.

La Ribera is a beautiful part of the world. Lynnes house is magical. There are alot of quirky things about it, but overall the house is a great place to spend a nice vaction in. The beach is amazing and the pool is great. The hottub is great. There is no AC in the main room but the ocean breeze is good. All the BDRs have AC. Beware of bugs during the rainy season... thats just part of being in Mexico. Get some bug spray! This house is great to host 3 couples. Not really too much room for kids but one of the rooms has a small bench that could serve as a bed. Fernando was our host and he was wonderful and easy to communicate. He helped arrange a chef to come and cook so that was nice and he can help with transportation needs. Overall a great house for a short trip.

Great vacation rental. Lynne as we as her house manager were easy to communicate with and assisted in making our trip great. House was located great for participating in the fishing tournament.

Make sure to get a pinpoint address from someone prior to heading out! The directions given after booking were extremely vague. Ask for keys and how to actually lock the big sliding walls in living room if you're at all concerned about security or your belongings.  There is only a/c in the 3 bedrooms so if going in the summer, plan accordingly. Oh and if you plan to use the hot tub, apparently a man has to come there and turn it on so you may need to plan in advance. Other than that, the home, pool area, and beach were amazing.

There is ZERO crime in La Ribera.I gave you the address and told you to put it in your navigator. The sliders all have locks on the top. We have lived there for 6 years and never locked up anything, leave keys in car/Atv and have never had anything stolen. Luis, the security guard and his family live behind the house and are aware of everything. it is a very special safe

This property was great, sunsets and sunrises from backyard/beach.  Fernando and their team were awesome and answered any questions we had in seconds.  I’ve been coming for 20 years and this is one of the best locations and houses we have stayed at!

Expect a great holiday with lots of activities near by Fiid is fresh and tasty Best holiday you will ever have

Fantastic place, great location,  wonderful layout!  Prompt interaction with the property manager from the US side and a very hands on good English speaking manager while in Mexico.    Definitely worth a visit and a great place to host an intimate gathering of friends.

5 star for the location of the house. La Ribera is AMAZING. The beach is clean and quiet. I gave a four star for the accommodations. The house is a nice ranch style with a great pool and jacuzzi that you can pay extra to have heated. If traveling with children, be aware that there is only one bedroom in the main house. The other two rooms are in separate casitas. The house is indoor-outdoor living with air conditioners only in the bedrooms. That being said, the house was full of ALL kinds of bugs. There is a fire pit in the yard, but on the first night of using it my family was eaten alive by Sand Fleas. The furniture, linens, cooking items, etc. are all really really well used. The property manager was excellent in getting back to us quickly at all times and all in all we made the best of it and enjoyed our stay.

Most beautiful beach holiday ever, the house is beautiful with the sea of Cortez right in front of you to swim in. Rooms are great with all the amenities you need to ensure u have a great time. Love the amount of activities to go in tge area, snorkeling, fishing, good, ATV tours to the waterfall, hot springs, horse riding etc. We will be back 👍😀

Excelente estancia!! Días muy agradables

A beautiful property, very private, comfy beds. Kitchen did lack a few items but Lynne was quick to say they would be added. Rented ATV's from Fernando which was very professional. The catering is a must, very good! Hope to visit again!

Elisa was the perfect guest, meticulous, clean and communicative. We couldn’t wish for more and I hope they returns again soon, Lynne

Old and dirty. Everything was gross and there were bugs everywhere. No air conditioning in common space. Manager did not give us instructions or meet us at the house. Would not recommend.

This place is great for a family vacation, the house is great, the views, the amenities, everything was as we expected,  Fernando was all the time looking for whatever we need, we felt very comfortable being there. My family is looking forward to be there again soon.
