Luxury estate guesthouse on the beach - Houses for Rent in Los Barriles, Baja California Sur, Mexico

Everything was wonderful, from the service to the house's facilities; very nice, we were very comfortable!

Todo estuvo de maravilla, desde la atención hasta las instalaciones de la casa; muy bonita, estuvimos muy a gusto!

Great house and beach. We would definitely go back.

Great stay. Big house, plenty of room for everyone to spread out - especially nice to be able to get both the main house and guest house for a bigger group to stay together. Beach right in front is nice, if a little rocky. Recommend renting ATVs to get back and forth to town if needed - I also went north half an hour for great fishing. Rogelio the house manager was helpful for arranging everything we needed. He was booked up with other cooking engagements which we didn’t understand when booking, so suggest you check on that — but he was helpful in finding us other local chefs who prepared nice dinners for our group. Overall great stay, we’d come again.

excellent place to relax in front of the sea.  ideal for going with friends to enjoy the beach and tranquility. Rolo was very friendly for everything we needed during our stay. a little difficult to get to, but once there you enjoy the tranquility and privacy.

excelente lugar para relajarse frente al mar.  ideal para ir con amigos a disfrutar de la playa y la tranquilidad. Rolo fue muy amable para todo lo que necesitamos durante nuestra estadía. un poco difícil llegar, pero una vez ahí se disfruta la tranquilidad y la privacidad.

Hit the book now button because this place is incredible. The views are spectacular, Rogelio’s food is amazing and the whole neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. We didn’t see another person on the private beach during our whole stay! We rented a vehicle, so we were able to drive to the nearby market to buy supplies. The people were so kind, everyone we encountered in the nearby towns were very friendly. Rogelio suggested a place for us to go horseback riding in Los Barriles and it was lovely, I would definitely recommend.

IT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE ONLY THE LOCATION A LITTLE CONFUSING SINCE THERE IS NO CELL SIGNAL IN THE AREA AND GPS IS NOT WORKING

FUE UNA BUENA EXPERIENCIA SOLO LA UBICACION UN POCO CONFUSA YA QUE NO SE CUENTA CON SEÑAL CELULAR EN EL AREA Y NO FUNCIONA EL GPS

A slice of paradise! Casa Mcgann is beautiful! We had an unforgettable few days! Rogelio was always available for us and solved everything we asked for and more! Super well equipped guest house! Kayaks available, impeccable outdoor areas, beautiful scenery, reef for snorkeling 10 minutes away and privacy to enjoy with family and friends. Thank you for making our stay perfect! 🙂

Un pedacito de paraíso! Casa Mcgann es hermosa! Pasamos unos días inolvidables! Rogelio siempre estuvo al pendiente de nosotros y nos resolvió todo lo que pedíamos y más! Casita de huéspedes súper bien equipada! Kayaks disponibles, áreas exteriores impecables, un hermoso paisaje, arrecife para snorkelear a 10 minutos y privacidad para poder disfrutar con familia y amigos. Gracias por hacer nuestra estancia perfecta! 🙂

Amazing property. Really relax, peaceful place. Rogelio was really helpful with all of our request/questions. Thanks!

This was such an incredible vacation, the peaceful getaway from the hustle of life that we were looking for.  I think every day we were the only ones on the beach!!!!  Rogellio was so prompt and attentive to our needs, and incredible recommendations for local dinner.  Everything was just as Benson described, super clean and the view spectacular!  The kayaks were a nice added bonus, especially as we were able to kayak with the dolphins swimming up the coast this morning before we left to catch our flight.  Epic snorkeling, amazing fishing, and fun for everyone!  We will definitely be coming back!  Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your amazing home!

I am sooo happy that you were able to experience how fantastic Mexico can be.  Spread the word. Don

Rogelio is a superb chef and host. He coordinated rentals and in general made our stay excellent.

Casa McGann was perfect for our family. The kids loved the pool and spent a lot of time swimming. The beach was easy to access, a bit rocky but still beautiful and enjoyable. The staff were very responsive and helpful with any needs or concerns we had.

I can’t say enough good things! The house is even more beautiful than it is in pictures. It’s bigger than it looks as well. Rogelio, the property manager, is the type of guy you want to just hang out with because he’s so cool and so helpful. The owner of the house was super responsive and flexible. Would definitely go back! And the beach completely felt private. It was wonderful! Have them set up a bonfire for you. Totally worth it.

It’s a bit of an adventure getting there but place is spectacular

This property was gorgeous and sooo well maintained. We have the best vacation for two families of four…. There is so much to do. Definitely recommend renting an ATV to explore but also just hanging out at the pool enjoying the view and taking beach walks sounds nice too!!! Great food and the staff Maria and Rolo are there to take care of anything you need!!!

Wow!!! This was an amazing place for our girls trip!! The house, the pool, the view, Maria and Rogelio were all amazing. Rogelio’s dinners he cooked for us were delicious and Maria’s massages and facials were amazing. We can’t wait to come back someday.

We had an amazing experience at Casa McGann.  It was just what we needed for our first trip in two years.  We met my cousin and her family, so there were four adults and three kids in our group.  The house had plenty of room for all of us, and lots of outdoor space to enjoy.  We enjoyed the pool and the kayaks, and loved the empty beaches.  The beach outside the house is rocky, but there are great swimming/snorkeling beaches in either direction (particularly near the hotel).  Jose Maria was amazing at helping us with whatever we needed, including dropping off fresh tortillas and a fresh fish.  Benson gave us a ton of detailed information before the trip, which was super helpful for our first time in the area.  This area of Baja is quiet and beautiful, and we saw a ton of wildlife (including seeing whales and mantas from the house and a sea lion on the beach next door).  In particular, we did a snorkeling tour in Cabo Pulmo (with Eco Adventures), which was incredible.  This house is remote and far from everything - which is just what we were looking for, but is good to be aware of for your plans.  We would love to go back!

Amazing location! Heated poo! Great outdoor kitchen for grilling! Communication is amazing with the host and there are plenty of activities that can be arranged. I highly recommend doing some ATVing and explore.

Gorgeous spot in every way Not so easy to drive there on dirt roads but once your there it’s heaven! The owner and staff are very kind!

We stayed in the guest house and our family of 8 had a great time. Very remote, perfect setting and staff were perfect.

This was my second stay in just over a month so I think that says it all. You can't beat the view and the practically private stretch of beach. Even got to see whales right from the back porch!

Great place for some alone time with the family, the beach is pretty rocky but its great.

As others have said this is an incredible place in a remote area - you’d be very unlikely to get your own pool (much bigger than the pics look) or access to what feels like your own stretch of beautiful beach for less than what you’d pay for a room at a resort! The views are fantastic and the food we had delivered thanks to Josemaria and his wife was outstanding too. I also can’t thank him enough for helping with my car battery - I mistakenly followed GPS which took me on the 4 wheel drive road along the ocean from Los Barriles which was not the owner’s directions and caused that issue. Definitely take the paved road to El Cardonal and then turn south!

Excelente locación, bonita área de jardín

A very nice place, comfortable, very clean, but above all, our hosts are very friendly and attentive to us! Always helpful! We had a great vacation!

Un lugar muy lindo, cómodo, muy limpio, pero sobre todo, nuestros anfitriones muy amables y al pendiente de nosotros! Siempre serviciales! Pasamos unas maravillosas vacaciones!

We had the loveliest time at Casa McGann (guest house)! Beautiful snorkeling right out front with plenty of friendly fish…kayaks are provided, and are a must-do! Josemaria was lovely, accommodating and always friendly. He brought us fresh shrimp and lobster for din one eve, and Griselda made the most stunning birthday cake for mom. The saltwater pool is always SO refreshing to jump into at any hour. This home boasts immaculate grounds, the BBQ is perfect, views are to die…we never wanted to leave. Don was beyond gracious and accommodating. He gave us lovely suggestions on things to do, drink and eat, and was really kind and responsive. Casa McGann is just wonderful!!!

Simply wonderful place, the view, location , comfort, and that we left on the ugly path, worth it!! We hope to return I loved!! Thank you Jose Maria and his team are very nice!!

Lugar simplemente maravilloso, la vista, ubicacion , comodidad, y eso que nos fuimos por el camino feo, vale la pena!! Esperamos regresar nos encanto!! Gracias Jose Maria y su equipo muy amables!!

Excellent location , wonderful beach Very good value for the money

Excelente ubicación , la playa maravillosa Muy buena relación calidad/precio

Beautiful house, with an amazing view. No signal phone but wifi had a really good conection, the pool is really deep so if you're going to the Mcgann's with childrens you've to be careful.

This place is beautiful and host is very helpful. Cannot recommend enough!

The road is a little bumpy, but it’s totally worth it! There was a lot of room for everyone, the pool is very nice. It’s right on the beach, you can sleep with the sound of waves and wake up to see the rays jumping right in front. Chema, the administrator, Can solve anything you need: horses, fishing, petting his animals at the ranch, cooking for you, you name it. We really enjoyed the house and the beach.

Sometimes the BEST places are the hardest to find.  Well now you know where this BEST place is.  AMAZING location and home.  If you want piece and quiet and yet plenty to do...this is the place.  So many interesting and fun things to do I can’t mention them all.  While it may be tricky to get to this place (unless you fly yourself) it is worth the journey.   Both Guest house and Main house are exceptional.   JoseMaria and his wife (the house manager) are available anytime and can arrange anything.   Don’t hesitant.  Be sure to visit this place!!!

Honestly, the place is nicer in person than the pictures. It's a perfect house to spend a few days in front of the beautiful beach. Maria Jose was very attentive and kind. We definitely came back some other day.

La verdad el lugar es más bonito en persona que en las fotos. Es una casa perfecta para pasar unos días enfrente de la hermosa playa. María José fue muy atento y amable. Sin duda regresamos algún otro día.

Drop dead gorgeous location on the Sea of Cortez. Very comfortable guesthouse with a nice pool area to swim and relax.  Nice sized  master bedroom and bath with a smaller second bedroom and a third bunk room. Great staff.

Casa McGann is awesome! Great outdoor space with pool bar and BBQ area. Right on the beach. It was beautiful and quite and felt like home. I highly recommended this place. I’ll be back for sure. I also recommend renting some ATV’s or side  by sides in Los Barriles (they have daily rates) and driving them up to the house. Tons of fun!!

I am very happy that you experienced the MAGIC of Casa McGann. This is one of the reasons I started renting 8 years ago. Let others experience the great life in Mexico, that so often gets a bad reputation. No bad here as you found!!! Next time have ATVs delivered to the house and arrange a tour to the 1000 year old petroglyphs (writing on the rock). There is a 15 min hike up but well worth it.
