About this property

Spectacular views! Recently remodeled 4 BD home, just steps to beach in Palmilla

You are immediately struck by the ocean views; full width telescoping doors literally bring the view inside. The next eye full is the infinity pool and hot tub at just the right temperature. A fully equipped kitchen for intimate cooking or a party. For the musically incline there is a Kawai Baby Grand Piano. Other top to bottom features include a 5 zone SONOS sound system, large Samsung smart flatscreen TVs, fiberoptic wireless internet inside and out, and daily housekeeping included - leave the dishes/don't make a bed. A large living room upstairs and a family room downstairs. The main floor office includes a large monitor and 3-in-1 printer for those who can't leave work behind.
The top floor MBR suite includes a King bed, two WCs, ample closet space, a sitting room with a view to die for perfect for morning coffee and checking your email.
On the bottom floor off the family room are two smaller bedrooms with Queen and Double Twins respectively, each with their own full bathroom, and their own terraced patio.
At the main floor, there is a full "mini-master" with its own King bed and full bath with entrance through the kitchen or off the main deck. This bedroom has an adjoining room for small children/infants with bunk beds, trundle bed, and room for crib/play n pak.
There is ample sunning space with multiple deck lounge chairs.
Want to get to the beach? You may be the only ones on it. Grab a beach chair and go down 2 flights of stairs and you're there or walk around via the golf course path. Some snorkel gear is available but all water sports equipment can be rented nearby (surfboards, paddleboards, kayaks, etc.). This is one of the few safe warm water swim beaches in the area - great for morning and evening strolls or that morning workout.
The home is extremely safe and private with the HOA's 24/7 manned security and double gated entrance. A golf cart with crate bed is included for access to over 8 eateries and a market within the Palmilla resort as well as the beach (no sand use).

Fabulous Vacation Spot

The house manager Marlene is wonderful with many suggestions and is there to help you have the best vacation! The house keeper is fantastic! The house itself has everything you need to cook, our group had dinner several nights at the house. The beach is easy to get to. The entire set up makes you not want to leave the house, so relaxing!

Beautiful Villa in Paradise

My family (4 adults + 2 child) absolutely loved the property. We loved the space, pool, private beach! We had a very relaxing vacation and everything we needed was there. My son said he was super glad our resort rooms got messed up and had to rent a house because this was the best!

Stay at Casa Luna

Casa Luna has an incredible ocean view from many rooms and it was kept very clean with daily maid service. The beach was quiet and an easy walk away. Palmilla is a beautiful community and it was so nice to have a golf cart available to run to the market or coffee shop in the neighborhood. Marlene answered all of our questions promptly and was extremely helpful in providing information and assistance for our first visit to Cabo. Also we hired a chef to cook for us two different nights thanks to Marlene’s help and he was wonderful. The food was outstanding, and they served us and cleaned everything up after dinner. We highly recommend Casa Luna and would love to return! Wonderful vacation spot for sure.

Way better than advertised

We stayed 5 nights in June ‘21. The house is absolutely terrific and would be great for a few families or a large group, with lots of privacy among the bedrooms, baths, etc. Marlene, the property manager, was outstanding at communication prior and and staying out of the way and yet ready when needed during our stay. The daily housekeeper, Coyo, does such a great job and makes delicious guacamole. We cannot speak highly enough of Casa Luna and the staff. We’ve stayed at similar properties in Palmilla before and they pale in comparison. Absolutely recommended for those seeking a quiet getaway that is not too remote (10 minutes from San Jose and about 25 from CSL). We plan to return to this home. Thanks to all!!

Perfect for a multi family vacation

As fantastic as everyone else has said. The views and the quiet/tranquility can not be overstated. We were a family of 4 and didn't even use the bottom level, there is so much space we could have easily had another family traveling with us. I've been traveling down to San Jose del Cabo for 25 years and I have now found the perfect spot. We are a family of 4 - 2 adults and 2 boys ages 5 and 8. We felt like we were the only people in the area, which is great when you have some "energetic" kids. The golf cart was such an added bonus, to go to the public beach where you can park and had great swimming for kids, or go to the top of the last steps of the private beach where you can drop everyone off with all the gear and go sun and paddle and watch the waves in complete uninterrupted bliss, we were always the only people on this beach (as someone who knows the area this is so rare). Plus in the golf cart you can drive across the highway to the small grocery or restaurants (fish, pizza etc) at the Palmilla Shoppes for any small grocery or liquor run you may need (if you want to do a large shop and don't rent a car definitely order grocery delivery from Fresko, otherwise if you have a car it is literally 5 minutes down the road for any food or booze that you want). We have stayed at the Palmilla One and Only Hotel which is close and an option for dinner. While I do love it so much for the setting of the hotel, the restaurants I feel are very overpriced for the food (you can go down for a drink though which is nice). So if you want to eat out I would go with Michael's advice for other places in the area, especially Flora Farms which we love - but that requires a car or a taxi. Regardless, you will 100% enjoy this house, the setting and amenities can not be beat. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful in every way

This was hands down one of the best rentals I’ve had. Service was impeccable, the house stunning, very secure and staff in the community was so kind and helpful. Traveling with a group of women we felt very safe. The house is gorgeous and has everything you need we. We cooked and had more than enough space to assure everyone was comfortable. Mike was so responsive and helpful. Marlene, the house manager, was so communicative and helped us with transfers and a private chef one day. Andrea who was the housekeeper was so detailed and amazing. We will definitely be using Mikes house if available for our next trip. I’d highly recommend staying in San Jose Del Cabo over Cabo San Lucas any day. Much more elevated experience.

Whole experience was amazing, house is gorgeous, location close to surfing, fishing, and San Jose. We got a chef for 2 nts which was delicious, Coyo cleaned and cooked in the am which was a treat, and Marlene the house manager made everything so seamless and fun, very easy to get a hold of and gave us the red carpet treatment. Best place ever!

Fabulous family vacation!

We just came back from a fabulous week at Casa Luna. It was my family and my sister’s family staying there and the house is beautiful, the location is ideal, the view is spectacular, the house is well equipped and fit us all comfortably. I would only hope that every house we rent is as great as this one. You can tell the owners actually use the house and care for it very well so it has everything you need for your vacation. And the wonderful Marlene took care of anything else we possibly needed. We had 3 kids under 4 and Marlene ensured we had travel cribs, toys, a pool safety fence set up, a baby gate and baby seats. Also amazing Coyo came every day to clean and do laundry and she even cooked breakfast for us twice (we paid for that and it was well worth it!). Coyo was also so sweet with all of our kids. Everything was just perfect and we would recommend this house to anyone wanting a beautiful place to stay with loved ones.

A perfect week in San Jose/Cabo

My wife and I rely heavily on reviews when we make our bookings. Thank you to those who reviewed we booked this house for spring break. We were very happy! The service is first class. From the arrival to the departure to coordinating quality transportation to helping with special events and requests. Marlene is fantastic. coyo came every day and kept the house spotless and stocked with clean towels. We loved the personal friendly and responsive service. Palmilla and the home are great. We loved our morning walks down to the beach and around the beautiful neighborhood. We had fun visiting the Thursday art walk in San Jose. What a cute town! I would recommend this home. It’s exactly as expected and even exceeded expectations, which is hard to do as I have high expectation. Grateful for the awesome week and already trying to see when we can schedule to come back.

Under the Spell of Casa Luna

As we go along life’s way, it’s a good thing to remember the very best of times. Therefore, our vacation while staying at Casa Luna will be a happy, long-lasting memory. Whatever one desires from a vacation rental, Casa Luna has it, and more. Walk from one room to another and in each enjoy the Sea of Cortez and, at the right time of the year, as was our experience, enjoy the sightings of whales breaching and playing with their offspring before making the long journey north in March. Have dinner on the spacious patio, light candles, and enjoy the romance of Baja in the evenings and come the morning wake to a view of the sun’s rising, and later enjoy breakfast prepared by Coyo, which I highly recommend. My wife, having researched many places in which to celebrate, knew immediately this was the property to give us everything. Together with Mike, the owner, and Marlene, the property manager, details were quickly sorted out. Whatever question we had Marlene was right there with all the answers, suggestions, ensuring our stay would be the best it could be. Thank you, my darling wife, for finding Casa Luna, and for loving me. Mike, thank you. We hope you’ll accept us again under the spell of Casa Luna. Best, Kelly and Jenny

Awesome Long Weekend

Had 5 college buddies in our 40's get together. Great place to just chill by the pool. Marlene managed our stay great and I recommend Coyo for breakfast & lunch cooking. There is a surf spot (old man's) 10 minutes away. I would bring my family to this spot as well. I hope to come again next year.

simply the BEST!

Thank you mike, Marlene, and Coyo for providing a vacation rental that truly is above and beyond in all aspects. From the beautiful homes layout to the attention to every detail accommodating our family with small children, we couldn’t have been happier and will definitely be back (hopefully once a year at least!) When we arrived we realized that our biggest mistake was not staying long enough! The views are unmatched and the layout of the house is true perfection with views from every room and bathroom! Marlene was so helpful setting up a quiet space for my two year old to sleep and coyo was so sweet - my kids loved her. We went out on Gonzalo’s boat and caught a bunch of red snapper, grouper, and trigger fish. We were able to swim 20 yards to the boat one morning right from the beach which was so refreshing and so much better than driving to the docks! It was a magical vacation that won’t soon be forgotten. Thank you mike for EVERYTHING!!!

Wonderful Family Vacation

Casa Luna is awesome! It was everything I hoped it would be and more. The pictures do not do it justice. Every room in Casa Luna has a fantastic view. The infinity pool and deck are very spacious which allowed for very comfortable lounging, sunbathing and socializing during our vacation. The house is a short walk to the beach, so we spent 95% of our time either at the beach or poolside. It was the ideal setup for 2 families with little ones. Everything we needed was so easy and convenient. Mike, Marlene, and Coyo are the best and were very accommodating for our stay.

Casa Luna a beautiful home away from home

My family of five spent a wonderful week at Casa Luna in February. The house is very well situated and has beautiful views from every room. The pool is large and well heated, the beds are amazingly comfortable and the house feels like someone's home (in a good way). Every kitchen/bath necessity is provided and we were very comfortable during our stay. The property management team is welcoming and responsive and Coyo the housekeeper was a real treat. We have been visiting San Jose for many years and would definitely return to Casa Luna.

Family 50th wedding anniversary celebration

We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with our family in Mike Looney's beautiful home. Everything was FANTASTIC. The pool and hot tube were in continual use with our granddaughters. It was our first time using a saline pool and we loved no chlorine. My wife, son and I went fishing with Gonzalo(recommended by Mike). He and his brother were a lot of fun and we caught a 25# Yellow Fin Tuna. We had it filleted at the marina and ate delicious grilled tuna steaks everyday. We also walked to the beach--very private, protected and safe for our granddaughters(4 & 9). Every evening we sat by the outdoor fireplace and relaxed. Housekeeper Coyo felt like part of our family. She and our daughter practiced their Spanish/English with each other(much laughter could be heard). Marlene was always available to answer our questions and helped us navigate taking the bus to San Jose for dinner. We loved every minute of our celebration.

Christmas through New Years 2016 - 2017

We had a fabulous family reunion at Casa Luna. We didn't go anywhere for the first few days because it was perfect. Groceries and services were within 5 minutes. A Gated community with great security. A Short hike down 120 craftsmen masonry steps to the swimmable beach. Marlene's coordination was first class and Coyo's daily attention to housekeeping details were excellent. We made a video clip of the view from the master suite, put it on a 20 second loop and play it on or TV, like the Netflix holiday fire thang.

About the host

Hosted by Marlene Aguilar

Host profile image
We are empty-nesters who lived and worked in Silicon Valley for the last 25+ years. We're now balancing our quasi retirement time between Casa Luna, the the SF Bay area where are two grown children and families live. We love coastal areas - Mike's an avid sailor; we both love to fish, snorkel and kayak; and we're learning to paddle board. Besides that we love to travel and look for new restaurants and wines. It's a good life.

Why they chose this property

We got lucky. One of those right place - wrong time scenarios wherein we knew it was a great buy in a fabulous location, but sooner than we were ready - but we bit the bullet anyway. The home had a lot of deferred maintenance but the fundamental layout and bones were great. And did I mention the views?

What makes this property unique

Every bedroom has a breathtaking view. " Water sports from boating, fishing, swimming, snorkeling, surfing, kayaking and paddle boarding are literally minutes away. The property is secure - 24/7. It's our home - you get to enjoy the amenities that we enjoy: flat screen TVs, well equipped office and internet, full-house sound system, wine refrigerator, warm pools and hot tubs. We provide excellent service with a local young property management team and daily housekeeping. Need a chef or bartender; need recommendations? -- let us know.
