Great location! It’s located in a gated community which felt very safe and private. It’s a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Everything about the house was lovely—we especially enjoyed the pool and spectacular views of the ocean. We went as a family of 4 and each kid had their own bedroom/bathroom on the lower level and my wife and I enjoyed the master suite on the main floor. The beach was a 5 minute walk from the house which was super convenient. Every restaurant we went to and activity we did was just a short drive from the house. 5 stars!! Thanks for letting us enjoy your beautiful home in Cabo!

Great place overall; we enjoyed the home, layout, and amenities. However, there were several maintenance and cleanliness issues during our 5-night stay. We had no hot water downstairs, the hot and cold handles in the upstairs bathroom were reversed, and the bathtub plug did not work. The Jacuzzi was intermittent and not fully reliable. There were also spider webs in the master shower, and the second master bedroom had a noticeable musty odor. The pool lights did not work, and the pool remained murky even after a technician visited to address the issue. This was disappointing as the pool and Jacuzzi were key amenities we were looking forward to using. Overall, the property has a lot of potential, and we enjoyed many aspects of our stay. However, given the price, we expected better maintenance and functionality of basic amenities. With attention to these issues, it could be an excellent Airbnb.

We loved Ronnie’s place. The photos don’t do it justice and it’s a truly special spot. Close enough to Cabo and easy to get to Adan Jose and everything in between. Well definitely stay here again

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Cortez! The home and pool were both beautiful, and we always felt very safe thanks to the two gated entrances before reaching the villa. The layout was perfect for our family, with three bedrooms on the lower level and the primary suite on the main floor, giving everyone plenty of space and privacy. One of the highlights of our stay was the housekeeper. She was incredibly kind, thorough, and attentive. She made sure every room was cleaned each day while also being respectful of our space, working around us whenever we happened to be at the house. There were a couple of minor disappointments. The ice maker wasn’t working, so we had to purchase ice from the grocery store throughout our stay. We were also informed after arriving that the outdoor fire pits, which were featured in the listing, were not available for guest use. It would have been nice to know both of these things before check- in. Overall we had a wonderful week and would recommend it!

Absolutely perfect in every way! This was, without question, the best Airbnb experience we have ever had. The house was even more amazing than we could have hoped for and honestly exceeded every expectation. Beautiful, comfortable, incredibly well appointed, and absolutely perfect for our stay in Cabo. The pictures do not even fully capture how special this home is. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found somewhere truly exceptional. I cannot possibly say enough wonderful things about Celeste. She went above and beyond throughout our entire stay to make sure we had absolutely everything we needed. Her communication was amazing, she was incredibly responsive, and she genuinely cared about making sure every part of our experience was perfect from beginning to end. She anticipated our needs, checked in on us, and made us feel completely taken care of without ever being intrusive. Celeste is truly extraordinary and played such a huge part in making this one of the most memorable

Incredible place tucked away behind a second gated street of a handful of home overlooking the ocean within an already gated neighborhood. Felt very secure and very quiet. The beach is a short walk down a walkway directly behind the home. Nice private beach only accessible from the neighborhood. We rarely saw more than a dozen others in it with us. One caveat is the beach is a mixture of sand and small gravel. Not the softest but a pair of water shoes did the trick to keep from being bothersome. Also, while you could get in the water it wasn’t all that swimmable for my children. We took a couple excursions to other beaches. Cerritos Beach being the a fan favorite for its more rustic/under developed nature and great sandy beach and swimmable ocean with some amazing surf to watch some incredible surfers do their thing.
