If you have multiple tabs open with different Airbnb options close them all and book this one! Came for a girls trip and felt like we were in our private, immaculately decorated resort. We started out the first night with a private chef and bartender that Armando helped organize and the fire pit and outdoor fireplace and bar and hot tub were the best welcome into our weekend. Close enough to todos but you def need a car. Maricela’s breakfasts and lunches were amazing and I miss them! No negative things to say at all, perfect trip.

Thank you Chris, Thank you Armando for doing grocery shopping even finding rare American ingredients - molasses and ginger roots that we wanted for making gingerbread Xmas cookies - and answering so many of our questions and arranging a chef to cook the BEST fresh sea food Mexican meal in town for us in the outdoor dining setting. Thank you, Marisela (breakfast cook) for delicious authentic Mexican meals. Each room was so beautifully decorated with magnificent and comfortable furniture (great comfy beds) and interesting art. The sunset view of ocean, palm trees, sound of crickets in December, oriole bird songs in the morning, butterflies and hummingbirds visiting flowers and cool evening breeze made this place truly heavenly. Swimmable child-friendly beach 30 min away. A beach for watching whales walking distance away. Lots of beach stuff and bug spray available. Welcoming generous treats (Tequila, guacamole, chips, beer, seltzer, fruits). Best AirBnB in 10 years for my family.

Casa del Arte was an amazing home to stay in. We had a large group of friends and family, and we felt right at home here. This home is beautifully designed and well taken care of. Chris and Armando are super responsive and helped ensure our trip was smooth. They went above and beyond to provide everything we needed for a great vacation. Thank you!

Very cool home with some great amenities. Indoor / outdoor living and great access to the beach as well as several great restaurants 5 min drive away. Fun part of Todos and great home for small groups.

Chris's place in Todos Santos is magical--beautiful and spacious! It was perfect for my family (3 adult couples), as we each had a private area for bed/bath but also plenty of shared lounge space between the living room, pool and outdoor kitchen, and roof deck. It's a short drive into town, so it's great if you have a rental car(s). Chris and house manager Armando gave us tons of great recommendations for the area! It's also a very quick walk to scenic ocean views. The perfect place for a group in lovely Todos Santos!

Absolutely gorgeous property. Our group of 7 enjoyed spending a weekend here and everyone had lots of room to spread out. I stayed in the casita space and it was very quiet and cozy. It was windy and chilly while we were there so we loved the hot tub and heated salt water pool. We made fires every night in the outdoor fireplace in the pool bar. The beach is a few minutes walk away. The host recommended a chef (Jorge de La Rosa) who came and cooked us a great dinner at the casa one night bc we didn’t want to leave the house. My photographer friend took lots of cool photos of us there because every single space is super vibey. Only thing to note is some of the rooms lack blinds/curtains and the art studio room doesn’t have a ton of privacy if folks are walking around, but it wasn’t a problem for our group. I was sad to leave!

This is a spectacular home to relax and unwind. The property has most amenities that you need, is comfortable, clean, and accommodating. Great for groups, and a close walk to the ocean to catch the sunset. This house is a few minutes outside of town, so you will need to think through hiring a car service or ensuring that you have a designated driver if you plan to go out on the town. Armando, the local host, was super helpful and welcomed us with beer and guacamole. The perfect touch to get the weekend started :)

The Airbnb was stunning- just like the pictures, but even more luxurious. The furniture was gorgeous but also comfortable, the turkish towels were perfect for the pool, and the beds were comfortable. Armando the house manager was an incredible host. He was so responsive beforehand, went grocery shopping for us, and found us a breakfast cook, which I highly recommend. Sammy served us a delicious, different breakfast every morning, did all the dishes and neatened up, all for a reasonable hourly price. You’ll definitely want a car for this spot. It’s 7 minute drive to town but it would be a dusty, long, and hot walk. The walk to the beach isn’t far, but note that the beach isn’t swimmable- most beaches in Todos and even Cabo are not, so that’s not a knock on this beach. You’ll also want eye masks for sleeping- there are basically no blinds.
