Cerritos Beach Palace Casa Gaia

Step out onto your private beach or balcony and see the waves roll in on the miles of golden sandy beach just steps away. This beautiful solar-powered beachfront, 2 bedroom (3 bed) upper level (1600 sq ft ) suite on Cerritos Beach is ideal for surfing, yoga, swimming and complete serenity.  Gated & secure, featuring 2 king-size beds, a pull-out sofa, & full kitchen. A perfect haven for the adventurer at heart, or for those just looking to relax and get away from it all. For inquires about other rentals on the property, visit cerritosbeachpalace

The Space:
This is a genuine slice of paradise. I recently completed building this home and I'm looking forward to sharing it with you. Enjoy the picturesque waves. Drop a fishing line in from shore or eat baja fish tacos in the nearest town of Pescadero. Grab your board and surf, or rent one from just down the beach! Have a picnic, watch the ocean life jumping and play in the water in front of you. After sunset, enjoy the bright moon and starry sky. There are ATV rentals, horseback riding and hiking all within a 5 km / 3 mile radius. We are conveniently located 15 minutes away from the charming artisan town of Todos Santos and 45 minutes away to Cabo’s night-life. We can also accommodate large groups of up to 12 people.

Guest Access:
Enter through the secure, gated entrance where plenty of parking is available. There is a wonderful beach area right in front with a shaded outdoor bed, recliner chairs, and hammocks on the sand where you are welcome to hang out and enjoy the sun or stars. It’s a private beach out front, which will only be shared with other guests of the property.

Guest Interaction:
Looking forward to saying hi! If I'm not here though, my caretakers will be able to handle your check-in and check-out, and any questions you might have. You have a private deck and suite, however there may be other guests on the property staying in one of our other suites.

Other things to note:
Having a vehicle is essential in order to get around. There are spectacular places to check out as well that create more incentive to rent a vehicle during your stay (waterfalls, other beaches, small colonial towns, restaurants, etc.). The local township of El Pescadero is about 5 minutes up the road by car while Todos Santos is an additional 10 minutes north and boasts some of the greatest festivals/art shows and specialty items of the Baja. At various times of the year you can catch whales migrating, turtles hatching, and some of the best surf in the world.

The neighbourhood
People are very friendly in this area, and if you simply want to kick back and enjoy the tranquility, you won't find a better place. Free from noise and hustle-bustle, this is a gorgeous getaway vacation home. There is a convenience store across the road and a delicious locally owned restaurant next door from it that prepares authentic cuisine.

Getting Around:
Buses run usually every hour however it is necessary to have a car in Baja in order to get around and have a stress-free and fun vacation. Most of what you'll need supply-wise can be found in the small town of El Pescadero, a 5 minute drive up the road and for specialty items and a slightly more active atmosphere, the larger town of Todos Santos is only 10 minutes further north or the drive to Cabo is a quick 45 minutes if you'd like to check out the city hub or night life.

Great family vacation
My parter, and 13yo son enjoyed a week at Fred’s place. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach right out front. The beach was quiet. We had fun looking for shells, especially if you walk south from the house. Cerritos and Todos Santos are a short drive away and had everything we needed. The surf lessons at Cerritos was perfect for my son. We loved our stay!

Very nice house (second story) and location for Cerritos and Todos Santos. Perfect for us 4, but more people can fit in easily. Hosts were great and very friendly. About 15 min walk along the beach to the north point. Short drive over to Cerritos parking area (100 pesos) to carry our stuff. Very convenient. Had great time!

What a great place to spend time with the family. The view from the balcony was incredible, spectacular sunsets, and OMG the whales were right off the surf line. Clean, spacious, and well appointed. Miles of clean, unpopulated, sandy beaches, without being remote. Ten minute drive to groceries, restaurants, and a surfing beach. Fred and Lucienne were so easy to deal with, friendly and helpful. Loved our time there, we'll be back.

Great location on the beach. We did experience mosquitoes, evidence of mice, and tiny iguanas in the house, but those were expected with the location near the water and our having the door open most of the time to enjoy the ocean breezes. Having Netflix was nice. The master bed was very comfortable.

Fantastic stay outside of Cabo
I came here with girlfriends from highschool for a quite, chill get away and this location was perfect. Great space, lovely host, and wonderfully quiet. We had a private cabana on a gorgeous beach, hammock, lounge chairs...and the apartment was spacious and perfect for the three of us. I loved that it was in a chill environment and near Cerritos Beach - a cute, upcoming quiet town on the beach. Everyone I met was wonderful and I'd love to visit again.

Great location on the beach
Casa Gaia is a spacious apartment on a large lot that holds the owner's home and two other rental spaces. This particular apartment is a second floor space with a nice balcony. It's at the back of the property so the view of the ocean is not interrupted but also not quite as close to the beach as the photos give the impression. We liked the apartment and it was clean enough when we arrived. The location on the beach is really wonderful and there are some cabanas on the beach that we could use- although those looked they the sheets in the cabanas had never been washed. The main issue is that the amenities in the apartment were akin to a college-aged person's first apartment. A rusty can opener, a single small steak knife was the only sharp knife, a mostly broken water pump for the purified water were typical in this kitchen. The owner could make the space a lot nicer for guests if he spent just a little bit of money on making sure quests have some useable kitchen equipment. We had a really nice time and enjoyed the quiet end of Cerritos Beach. It was about a 30 minute walk to the surf break and the more populated part of Cerritos.

Living on the beach!
Our family of four stayed a couple of nights at Casa Gaia and loved the easy informality of the property, as well as the quick access to the quieter southern side of Cerritos beach. Our first impressions of the Casa (upstairs unit, above Studio Gaia) was the spacious layout and wonderful views from the deck. The kitchen, dining area, living area and bedrooms were all generously sized, with very comfortable king beds in both rooms. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances in good condition. In my opinion though, the best part of Casa Gaia was the beach living - we felt far removed from the bustle of northern Cerritos, but could easily stroll there if desired. The host has thoughtfully supplied hamacas, recliners and sheltered daybeds (great for windier days) on the beach zone just outside the compound...all you need to bring is your towel. We would love to return to Casa Gaia in future!

I had a great stay here with friends and family. We came down for a warm surf trip and Fred’s spot is right up on the beach! The week we went there wasn’t any swell, but his spot was perfect and relaxing. The living space was extremely comfortable with tons of seating for Lounging and relaxing. We will definitely come back when we can plan the surf better! It’s tucked away and remote, just what we were looking for. We also rented the downstairs apt which was nice to have the entire house to ourselves.
