6BR Villa in El Cardonal

Jodi

Excellent, 2 months ago

We had the best time at Casa Rodriguez! The house and property are more beautiful in person than in the photos. Samuel, Vincente, and Homar provided five star service. We can’t wait to go back!

Best place in El Cardonal. Second time we have stayed at the property and it was fantastic. Great house layout for many guests. The pool overlooking the Ocean is fantastic. Vicente, who lives on the property is awesome and extremely helpful. He took us out fishing and we caught a Sailfish and a Dorado. Highly recommend this place and we are already looking forward to our next trip down!

Thank you for this wonderful review Brooks. It means so much to us. I shared this with Vicente and he shared that is is also very much looking forward to another opportunity to fish with you guys :)

A great place for a big family vacation. Lots of bedrooms, lots of bathrooms. If you want a bustling city around you, this is not the place, but if you want a place that feels isolated but safe, I'd highly recommend. There's a two good small markets and restaurants an easy half mile walk or drive up the road. The ocean is warm enough to swim in even in December, and Vicente who lives on-site is happy to help arrange for fresh fish (if the sea isn't too rough for fishing), keeps an eye on the place, and his daughter Lupe comes to do the dishes and to clean as much or as little as you want every day. Madison and her team are really responsive to problems. If you had a large group, the inside table doesn't seat more than about eight people, but there's a large outside table which would be fine. Good kitchen for cooking, good knives, but a bit of a shortage of ceramic plates and glasses, although the kitchen is well-stocked with plastic plates and cups. Overall, I'd recommend highly.

Thanks Joseph. Appreciate the thoughtful review. It was a pleasure hosting your family.

Our stay at Casa Rodriguez was absolutely dreamy. The house and setting are beautiful, the staff are friendly and helpful, and boating and fishing with Vicente were a highlight! Our group of 15 had plenty of space, we had a kid room with air mattresses and Madison was very helpful with all my questions about space and layout. The only drawback that had nothing to do with the house was the presence of jellyfish in the Sea of Cortez- but the gorgeous pool was a great option. We spent lots of time on the water, paddle boarding and sea kayaking, but snorkeling wasn’t an option due to some stings. We want to come back in the spring or fall and try again! We saw coral, rays, turtles, and even an octopus right in front of the house- it is so vibrant and alive. The shady pool bar was so perfect, we could watch rays jumping in the sea. The night sky was brilliant, as were all the sunrises and sunsets. We loved our trip and hope to return to Casa Rodriguez again in the future!

Casa Rodriguez was a beautiful place to stay. We had 11 of us celebrating our 40th birthdays and we had a great time. I’d recommend getting Adriana to cook breakfast and dinner for your group! The food was amazing! Also it’s great to get the cleaner to come and do all your dishes and light cleaning daily. It made for a very relaxing time. Lastly, even though it adds up We would recommend heating the pool and hot tub. It was mid 70s to low 80s and half our group wouldn’t go in the pool unless it was heated.

That put a huge smile on our faces! Thanks for the lovely review!

Great place to rest and enjoy the sea of Cortez. Servicuos bonisimos

WOW! This house is a MUST MUST MUST on your bucket list. From the moment you walk into this home and see your private beach from the infinity pool, it is pure paradise all around! The caretaker, Vincente, took care of us amazingly well every single day. The housekeeping professional, Lupita, keep the place sparkling clean throughout our entire stay. The local tips were all spot on and better than we could've ever imagined. There is SO much to do, and so much to see. Do yourself a favor and book this home!

We enjoyed every minute of our time at Casa Rodriguez. Our large group continuously raved about how no detail (inside or out) had been overlooked. We had a few windy days that prevented any good fishing, but we found plenty of other things to enjoy. From the swimming pool and hot tub, to the games and puzzles, our days went by too fast. Christmas morning brought perfectly calm water and we were able to really enjoy paddle boarding, snorkeling and kayaking. Samuel is a true asset to the place and went above and beyond ensuring we had everything we needed. He found out we had a birthday pinata for my nephew and not only went looking for a cord/pulley and decorated stick to hit with, he helped hang it! We ate twice at the restaurant inside La Terrazzas because it was so delicious (the rellanos are a must have!) and Felipe was so wonderful to us. We did not take advantage of the grocery service but soon discovered that the Chapitos in Los Barriles was sufficient for stocking up. We made daily walking trips to the little stores in El Cardonal for a cold Coca-Cola for the kids / cerveza for the adults, or a bundle of bananas and other snacks. We used Adriana's catering service for three meals and they were all delicious and plentiful. She made the most amazing chocolate cake and decorated it for my nephew's birthday celebration. Madison was awesome to work with; it was not easy coordinating a trip for an extended family, but her prompt and thorough communication eased so many nerves. Hoping to return again soon!
