What a beautiful home and setting for a family or group of friends. Our extended family of eight adults and four children stayed at Mary’s house in late November. It is a wonderful beachfront house with a great pool in the back. The main house had four bedrooms and four baths, great for the families with young children. Next to the pool is a casita with two more bedrooms and two baths. And if your group is really large, there is a luxurious bunk house that sleeps another large crew.

The beach was not secluded but very walkable and offered good swimming and while we were there, lots of fishing in the morning and wind surfing in the afternoon. There was a good bar and restaurant a short walk north on the beach, and many bars and restaurants in Los Barriles which is a 15 minute walk south down the beach or a 5 minute car ride

Mary was a wonderful host and very accommodating and helpful. She also owns one of the ATV rental shops and the ATVs are a must for at least part of the stay. We ventured up the mostly dry river to a great waterfall one day and north to Punta Pescadaro for a nice beach walk and lunch another.

On top of all this, Mary gave us the opportunity to hire her local chefs to cook at the home and we had three terrific dinners.

I can’t recommend this stay enough.

Our whole family…14 of us ranging from 7 to 76…gathered for a week at this remarkable property. The house, casita and happy dorm ( as we called it) were beautifully done and gave each of us our own space. Mary was a wonderful sidekick for me as I tried to keep the herd together…from transportation to groceries to reservations and all sorts of ideas of things to do in Los Barriles, which is a true hidden gem. From sun rise to past sunset we had a amazing week, full of fantastic memories. Highly recommended! YOLO!

We had an awesome time, everything was just so relaxing, even though the fish didn’t cooperate completely. Three of the girls did catch nd release Marlin first two days of fishing, plus we caught a few dorado, tuna and cabrillo along the way. We as a group would say though your chefs were so awesome. The recipes they concocted with our groceries was absolutely amazing. And such nice people. Had them come for an extra day!!! The house and furnishings, simply awesome. Mary’s coordination of airport transportation, fishing, ATV and food was outstanding and was so much appreciated. We hope to return soon…

What a house! Our party of 12 stayed here for the second time and this house rocks! Mary is awesome and arranged transportation to and from the airport. She also had a good suggestion for us not to rent a car and instead we used quads the whole time. She was right – a car was not necessary and it was so fun on the quads and it saved us money in the long run. The house is right on the beach – a perfect location. Everything in the house is kept in tip top shape. Will definitely stay here again!

My family had our reunion here – all 25 of us. Mary (the owner) was so helpful arranging transportation for us, quad rentals, day trip suggestions – you name it! The house itself is a dream! It is right on the beach and the grounds are so beautiful! The beach is immaculate and not crowded at all – in fact this area is not touristy yet. I hope it never becomes that. Back to the house, the beds were very comfortable, everything was super clean, it’s virtually a chef’s kitchen, nice towels and the pool was fantastic. There are seating areas all around the property with comfortable couches and hammocks and lounge chairs. Everything was just beautiful. We had her chef come in and cook for us a couple of nights which was really nice after a long day of relaxing ha ha. I should mention that even though we had a large group we were all able to sit together in the dining areas. Everyone is still talking about our trip and we can’t wait to go back again. If you decided to come here – you will be very happy!
