If there was one thing to take away from this trip, it is that WE collectively as a people do not stop to truly relax and enjoy our surroundings anymore. We are constantly inundated with distractions from our phones, computers and televisions...This place will change all that.
Castillo del Mar is architecturally beautiful with wood beamed ceilings and giant glass windows that open onto the expansive decks over the Pacific ocean. The views are just as they are in the pictures...magical. From the moment you step on the deck there is an overwhelming sense of calmness and peace. The house is appointed with beautiful artwork and modest furnishings.
Igor was a fantastic communicator and contacted me the day before we were arriving to make sure that we had everything we needed. If you need something while you are there, massages, dinner prepared, horseback riding etc. Igor will make it happen for you.
Overall, the trip was fantastic and we had a much needed break from the hustle and bustle of the real world. I hope to be back in Baja and stay on this little slice of heaven sometime soon.
* I would recommend however that groups do not travel here with little children. We traveled with a group of 4 children aged 5 and under and although they had a wonderful time being together (and Igor was fantastic with them), because of the location and the way the house is situated on the cliff, it makes for a very dangerous setting. The house is not set up for young people and their safety. I would recommend families with children 10 and under choose another property until they are a bit older.

This was such an amazing trip! The house was breathtaking and comfortable for our large group. It was such a fun and adventurous weekend thanks to our extraordinary host Igor! He planned and coordinated our entire weekend, making everything run as smooth as possible. We had such an amazing time, I'm still dreaming about this place!

Our family had an amazing and relaxing vacation at this gorgeous home. It’s spacious bedrooms, living room, kittchen made it very comfortable to lounge in. We enjoyed the hikes around the beach areas and the breathtaking ocean scenery and sunsets. A big thank you to Igor and family, for going above and beyond with their hospitality.

The home was absolutely beautiful and Igor and the other people on the property were very helpful and accommodating. The natural beauty available on the property was unreal, tide pools, private beaches, natural geysers, dramatic views, and relative seclusion it had it all. The only reason I am not giving five stars is that it seemed a bit silly to charge $5 per device for wifi when we were already paying over $1000 dollars for our 2 night stay. Other than that we loved the house and found it easy to work around the eco requirements. We would definitely stay here again, we had a great time.
