Just one house off the blue waters of Mexico’s Sea of Cortez, we love our house for its amazing sunrise and sunset views, proximity to the water, and it’s comfortable layout with lots of outdoor space.
The space
Up a short flight of steps, the main house is single level living with a spacious kitchen. This level has the main bedroom and bath, plus laundry and a powder room. Upstairs is a separate studio unit with spectacular Sea of Cortez views, kitchenette, and luxurious bath.

Neighbourhood
Our home is just half a mile to Tres Palapas Pickleball Resort and 10 minutes to Palmas Pickleball Academy, where 24 courts will be opening November 2024. We are just 300 steps to the nearest beach.
Getting to my home
We recommend renting a car at the airport, or, a popular mode of transportation in Los Barriles is off road vehicles since we only have 2 paved roads in town! A driver can deliver you to the house and it is possible to pre arrange to have an off road vehicle delivered to you from one of the many rental companies in town
Nearest airport
Just an hour north of San Jose del Cabo (SJD) International Airport on the well traveled Highway 1
Getting around
Having transportation is essential. We are a ten minute drive to town
Nancy and Jerry's place was lovely, exactly what I needed for a quiet retreat. Los Barilles is a quieter town in Baja. Their casita was beautiful, perfect for a solo or couple of travelers. A large patio right off the main area makes for a great workout space and a lovely place to sit and read and catch some sun, with pretty views of the Sea of Cortez. They are a two minute walk to the beach. You'll definitely need a car as it's about an hours drive from the airport and the house is 10 minutes out of town. I didn't really do much but rest and eat seafood tacos, but there are things to do there like pickleball and ATV riding, fishing and kite surfing, but again, I was there to rest and recharge. Nancy and Jerry were lovely hosts. So if you are looking for a quiet retreat, I highly recommend their place.

Ilana was the perfect person to help us navigate our first exchange. Super helpful and knowledgeable of the process, but even better, she’s friendly, kind and took great care of our casita!
