Sometimes bigger is better

Even though this property is this most expensive in Las Gaviotas, it offers WAY more room. Bedrooms are large, master is amazing, huge courtyard to enjoy quiet evening or host dinner parties. Outside oceanside has ample setting area and of course, inside has plenty of area to hang out. We saw several rentals our friends had and they were small, tight and not very decorated for $300 plus. As to where 3 couples can enjoy this place and have much more space along with incredible ocean front views! Staff is super helpful and the owner, Robert, is as available as well. Would definitely rent again!

The pictures do not do this incredible home justice. There is so much charm and beauty, Its perfect

We came to Robert’s home to celebrate my 50th. It was my husband and I and a few of our great friends. All of us enjoy traveling around the world and jumping into the beauty and culture and cuisine wherever we go. With that said, we were all in agreement that this property and what it offered was one of the most magical experiences we had come across. You can see the pride and love Robert puts into his home and he wants to share it with those who can appreciate it. Located on a couple great surf breaks made it a playground for my husband and a couple of his friends. The views the house has to offer are seen all throughout, every where you turn, you see the crashing surf or the bright orange sunsets. The community itself is friendly and chill and because of this house’s location, we met neighbors and travelers every day. On the weekends, the community pool offers fresh fish ceviche and tacos and oysters on the half shell. There really is no reason to leave the property. But if you do need a great place to eat, right across the freeway is a fantastic tasting bar/restaurant upstairs that has live music on the weekends! And going wine tasting about an hour away in Valle de Guadalupe is a must. This truly is one of the most well-rounded, relaxing, beautiful and charming vacations we’ve ever taken.

Amazing!

If you have the opportunity to stay in Robert's house - do it!! This was my first time traveling down to Gaviotas and I definitely think Robert's house is the best one their is in the whole community. The house is beautiful, charming, has so much character, and is loved in the prime location. There is a stunning courtyard, that we used for a private dinner one night (Robert's concierge arranged a private chef for us!), and the patio by the ocean was perfect for breakfasts, relaxing and reading, and sunset cocktails. Honestly have nothing negative to say about the experience - Robert was very communicative leading up to my stay, and was easy to reach for any questions or issues we had while we were down in Mexico. Can't go wrong with this house!

Amazing home

This is an amazing home, wonderful owner and perfect Gaviotas experience from beginning to end. Every room (yes, bedrooms included) has an ocean view and that from the great room with floor to ceiling windows is stunning - it is truly something that can’t be beat. Sitting in the jacuzzi watching the waves out front is a luxury few homes in Gaviotas offer. The size was more than enough for our group, which consisted of a small family and additional couple. Another couple could easily have fit comfortably. Robert is extremely easy to work with and takes the time to ensure his guests enjoy every aspect of his home. Both Robert and his housekeeper Maria went above and beyond. One person in our group actually lost their wallet and Maria found it while cleaning after we left. They immediately contacted us and worked to get it back to the owner in the US within days. Thank you again!

Place was perfect!

We celebrated our 50th anniversary here with adult children and grandchildren, and there is something for everyone. Courtyard was great for dinners in. Outdoor fire pits, hot tub made evenings outside terrific. House is roomy, well-stocked and fun. Robert is a great host and Jim is always around if you have questions. Kids loved beach and pool.

This is the best home to rent in Las Gaviotas! More than enough room for our large family and the views are breathtaking. The owner communicated really well from booking to departure. We appreciated his attentiveness. The property manager, Jim, is so helpful and gracious. We can't wait to return for more surf, bonfires and FUN!

Best House in Gaviotas

This is our second stay at #8 and we loved it even more than the first time. I didn’t think that it could be better but Robert has made a few improvements since 2016 and the house is magnificent. Two families with 4 adults and 5 kids in tow and we had more space than we needed. So luxurious with the ocean and the ambience and the view...oh, the view. Thank you, Robert. Can’t wait for our next stay.

Perfect place for a family celebration!

From the first exchange with Robert prior to booking to the sad day of our departure, we were treated like gold! We celebrated an 80th birthday and Christmas on the same trip and things were perfect. We were blown away by the house, the location (best in Gaviotas for both of these items) and all of the amenities and kindness we received from Robert (and Jim). And last but not least, there was Alexei — whose rule of thumb is simply “ask and ye shall receive”. Alexei can and will make it happen... just trust me on this one. We will be back and we absolutely would not want or need to stay anywhere else but here. We fell madly in love and can’t wait to go back! Thank you, Robert!!

Beautiful Las Gaviotas Home with amazing views from inside & out. The owner, Robert, was wonderful!

We celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary in this amazing home with our family. Our children surprised us with a Mariachis band at sunset arranged by Alexei Oregel. Everything we needed to prepare gourmet & casual BBQ meals was there & we enjoyed all of them on patio with panoramic ocean views & huge courtyard. This home is so authentically decorated with so many artifacts to enjoy. Six of our kids & grandkids surf, it was so much fun to watch them from our private patio. The owner was wonderful to work with, answering any questions promptly. This was definitely an A+++ vacation & celebration for all of us!

WOW, by far the best at Las Gaviotis!!!

Thank you Robert for opening your home and allowing us to enjoy beautiful Las Gaviotis. Touring wineries, relaxing on the patio, walks on the beach, shopping, and having Carlos (chef) cook and serve us in the amazing courtyard made it a wonderful vacation. Robert and on site manager Jim met us upon arrival to show us around and answer any questions. Nights sitting on the patio overlooking the ocean....stunning and was hard to leave. Our group enjoyed every moment and we are looking forward to returning.

A picture perfect beach front property.

With every room having its own spectacular ocean view it was tough for the group choose! The master was ideal and had a nice but authentic vibe to it. The house had more patios and outdoor space then we knew what to do with. The exterior really was terrific with a beach front jacuzzi, ocean facing fire pit, the private side patio, and a private interior patio with hanging napa bulbs that was perfect for dinners. There are plenty of things to do in Mexico but the Gaviotas organizer really did make life easy and entertaining. Our group was able to go wine tasting in the valley, play golf at Bajamar, surf out front, and fish off of Ensenada all in three days. The whole group raved about it and we hope to come back soon!

The best house in Las Gaviotas

Our stay at Robert's home was perfect, easily the best property in the community. The private jacuzzi, outdoor fire pit overlooking the ocean and the gorgeous courtyard were a few of the highlights. Robert also set us up with our own chef that came and cooked a delicious dinner for us on our last night. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for a fun weekend getaway.

Amazing house in Baja

We just returned from a pre-Thanksgiving getaway and had the pleasure of renting this amazing home. We have stayed at Las Gaviotas many times and this is, by far, the best property in the community. The owner, Robert, and the on-site manager, Jim, were both friendly, available when we had questions, and very accommodating. We enjoyed the private hot tub, had a fire in the fireplace while watching movies on a rainy day, used the fire pit on the clear nights while watching the surf, barbecued in the beautiful interior courtyard, napped in the hammock, and enjoyed excellent surf daily. The home is filled with really cool folk art, shells, and photos, which was great for our families, but maybe not as good for families with curious, small children. The house is really well equipped, with a full kitchen, DVD and WiFi, games, and soft top surfboards. We will definitely come back and would rent this house again in a heartbeat. Thank you!!

Best at Las Gaviotas!

I have waited a bit to write this review, unfortunately, so my memory is a little foggy on the details but I can for sure say that this is the best property and experience we have had at Las Gaviotas. We visit this community frequently and stay in different houses. I've been longing to stay in this one forever and when we got the chance we jumped on it. It looks amazing from the outside but my mouth dropped when we arrived and saw the interior for the first time. It's beautiful and so well planned. The service provided was unprecedented and outstanding. You will not find a nicer home of this size at Gaviotas. Thank you Robert! We hope to be back soon.
