Exceptional 5-Bd Del Mar Villa, Steps to the Beach — Chef & Butler Incl.

"Such an amazing stay! I came here with my friends from Stanford, and it was honestly the getaway we needed. The place was peaceful and perfect for relaxing and spending time together. We had the best time and would definitely come back"

Perfect, secluded beach location in San Jose del Cabo near The Palmilla

10/10 Excellent

"This place was beyond anything we could have imagined! Scott and the entire Casa Estrella team were absolutely incredible. Betty came by every day to keep the house spotless, and Luis and Giovanni were always on call, ready to help with any issue. Scott, the owner, was so communicative—since we booked months in advance, he kept us informed every step of the way, both in the months and weeks leading up to the trip, and afterward. The location was perfect, the neighborhood was very safe and clean, and the short walk down to the beach was just perfect. We were a group of 14 girls, and there was so much space—everyone loved it! I’m already planning to come back someday, whether it’s with family or another girls’ trip. I can’t say enough great things—this stay was truly unforgettable!"

Unobstructed Ocean views from eco friendly Hacienda.

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful well equipped luxurious property! Our family of 7, ages 13 to 76, thoroughly enjoyed our 10 days here! The pool and hot tub and outdoor space were the focal point of our stay, but the private bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and beautiful showers, the casita for our teen son, and the beautifully appointed gourmet kitchen were superb. We enjoyed 2 dinners prepared by private chefs during our stay and cant recommended that experience enough. The nicest grocery store we have ever been in (Fresko) is directly across the highway from this gated community. We had a minivan for the entirety of our stay and that is a must IMO. We only went to San Lucas one afternoon and to the beach at Palmilla once as well... and that was fine. The beach was veey nice but the pool at this home was all we needed! San Lucas was not our style but enjoyed quite a few evenings in San Jose including the Thursday night Art Walk which is definitely recommended. We did have some new home construction directly on both sides of the home during our stay but noise wasn't too bad and we gladly drowned it out with the fantastic Sonos whole home sound system, bringing one of the speakers outside during our time outside. Overall fantastic experience that our family hopes to repeat someday!"

Casa Helios - 4BR Luxury Villa Panoramic Ocean Views overlooking Palmilla Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The property was beautiful and more than enough room for 6 guests. The kitchen included everything we needed for meals and more. The views were stunning and we even saw fireworks on our last night! Marty (property manager) and the host were easy to work with and very clear on check-in/out instructions along with assistance on airport transportation. We felt very safe and the location was near a large grocery store which made grocery runs super easy and convenient."
