El Bajadero is a luxury vacation home overlooking the Pacific. Each of the 4 bedrooms has its own vibe & ensuite bathroom. The top-level Casita has a separate living room (w/sofa bed), kitchen, & terrace w/outdoor shower. The upper-level Colibrí has a lush courtyard w/a private outdoor bathtub. The Paloma is off the elegant main living area & the Tulerito is on the fabulous pool level. With a wide wrap-around deck, fire pit, hammock pit, & massage deck, El Bajadero is the ultimate in indoor-outdoor living.
IS EL BAJADERO RIGHT FOR YOU?
Nestled into a hill just off the coastline, El Bajadero is ideal for families or groups of friends who love to travel together to exotic places but who also want their creature comforts ... and their own space.
Because of the house's cascading architecture, every bedroom is perched on the hillside such that they all have sweeping views of the ocean. The main living room has 12-ft ceilings and is surrounded by pocket doors that open to a wide, wrap-around porch and terrace that includes two seating areas, a fire pit, a BBQ, and outdoor eating for 10. The eating area on the terrace is covered by a pergola so you can enjoy the area no matter the intensity of the sun.
AMENITIES
The richly colored pool level has a refrigerator, a bar, the coolest outdoor shower you've ever seen, and separately zoned speakers ... everything you need to spend a day lounging. And, of course, the pool— withan infinity lap lane, an in-pool spa, and a Baja shelf with two built-in tanning beds.
Finally, the pergola-covered massage deck is perfect for an afternoon nap in a hammock or an indulgent sunset massage.
The standard amenities includes some not-so-standards extras like whole-house filtered water, a wine fridge, and an easy-to-use Sonos sound system and Ring security system.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
El Pescadero's Gavilán neighborhood is a quiet seaside community just 5 miles north of Los Cerritos surfing beach and 15 miles south of the culturally rich Todos Santos. With El Bajadero's fabulous pool and your pick of sunset perches you may never want to leave the house, but if you do you'll find farm-to-table food (Hierbabuena), hipster coffee (Baja Beans), homemade ice cream sandwiches (Mini Super Munchies), and an upscale seaside margarita (San Cristóbol) all within a 15-minute drive. And then there's Los Cerritos and Todos Santos just a stone's throw away.
GETTING TO AND FROM
El Pescadero is super easy to get to from the Los Cabos airport. Basically, you cut over the the Pacific coastline and drive north The highway is brand spanking new and well maintained and so the ride is pleasant, especially if you like the austere beauty of desert landscape flanked by a mountain ridge and the ocean. It takes anywhere between 1 and 1.5 hours, depending on if you take the toll road and how fast you drive.
