DETAILS
Fall asleep to the soothing rhythm of the Sea of Cortez. Wake up to the sweet sounds of songbirds. Casa Moonshine is a modern retreat in a rural Baja paradise designed with privacy and serenity in mind. Playa los Zacatitos, a pristine, swimmable beach, is only 1/4 mile away.
Two identical studio casitas each include:
- A comfortable queen-sized bed and a single cot mattress to accommodate one child.
- Fully stocked kitchenette (refrigerator, oven, sink, stove, coffee maker, and necessities for cooking and dining.)
- Full bathroom including towels, shampoo, conditioner and soap.
- Floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall sliding glass doors bring in plenty of natural light and stunning pool and cactus views.
- Air Conditioning
The swimming pool is just a few steps outside the studio casitas, with giant cacti, palm trees, and blooming desert foliage as a picturesque backdrop and privacy barrier. The pool's shallow end is about a foot deep and perfect for wading, while the deep end is ideal for swimming or taking a refreshing dip on a hot day.
The cozy outdoor living area, under the cool shade of the palapa, provides abundant comfortable seating and plenty of room to gather and enjoy your meals together. The palapa is the place to be for a mid-day siesta in a hammock, to tune out and read a book, play card games, or kick back and relax with a cold beverage.
A sufficient workstation could be set up under the palapa for those who work remotely. A reliable wi-fi connection is available throughout the property.
ACCESS
With this booking option, guests of Casa Moonshine have access to the entire half-acre property, including the poolside casitas, palapa, and pool. There will not be access to enter the Garden Casita, but the Garden Casita will not be rented to a separate party. During your stay, you will enjoy the privacy of having the property all to yourself.
OFF-THE-GRID
Casa Moonshine is a self-sufficient home in off-grid community of Zacatitos. We rely on solar power, water storage, and septic systems. Conservation of these resources is necessary.
OUTDOOR LIVING
Casa Moonshine was designed to embrace and enjoy the outdoors. The casitas provide comfortable indoor shelter for sleeping and cooking, while the plentiful outdoor living areas are for gathering and enjoying the serenity of the desert by the sea.
WILDLIFE
Zacatitos is home to an abundance of wildlife. You will surely meet some of these friendly locals during your stay.
Wild Burros , Free Range Cattle, Deer, Silver Fox, Iguanas, Rabbits, Vultures, Hawks and a wide variety of other birds and reptiles.
The East Cape is wild terrain in the Sonoran Desert on the Sea of Cortez. With that comes many interesting life forms, including plants, insects, reptiles and sea life. That is why we love it! We take pride in our thorough cleaning practices but try not to use harmful chemicals that will hurt the unique ecosystem.
SECURITY
Zacatitos is a safe and peaceful community. The property owners invest in a 24-hour security team, whom you will meet anytime you enter or leave the neighborhood and will see them patrolling on four-wheelers at night.
TRANQUIL. MAGICAL. PRIVATE.
These are some of the words often used to describe Casa Moonshine. The privacy of the pool, the allure of the palapa, and the peaceful, native surroundings are the property's highlights and a few of the elements our guests love most.
