What a stunning setting! We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our vacation. Kids were entertained by the pool, hot-tub, beach, sand, and fire-pit. Surprised to find spectacular snorkeling just off the beach including coral and all sorts of tropical fish. Chartered a fishing boat which picked us up right at the property. Chef America and Vicky cooked for us a few times (they also bought the groceries and did the dishes!). Sergio took good care of us and even made a couple trips to the store to pick up a few things we needed. Secluded, quiet location but still walking distance to two restaurants. We will be back.

I travel to the Sea of Cortez a couple of times per year. I have brought a group of guys to these waters to fish for the last 13 years. We discovered Villa Mirasol 9 years ago and hav stayed nowhere else since! The house, location, and staff are simply amazing. Sergio is the house manager. We feel like we have become family. His wife, America (and Vicky too), prepare delicious meals for us daily. We are a group of 10 guys and with the 7 beds in the 5 bedrooms at Villa Mirasol we thought a few of us would be roughing it. Not the case at all! They have numerous bed-height cots with thick integrated pads that they make up with sheets and blankets. They are just as comfortable as a bed. The location is ideal for our needs. The house feels right on the water, but is actually a one minute walk from the shore, perfectly situated. The views are stunning. We fish most days and we meet our captains with their pangas just down the beach by the restaurant. It's a super easy morning trip to the boat launch. We all feel sad each time we depart Villa Mirasol in Bahia de Los Muertos, but we start planning our teturn trip to the Baja as soon as we get home!

Our stay at Villa Mirasol was a dream. We have never been on a more fun, relaxing, exhilarating, vacation. From snorkeling, walking on the (empty) beach, to catching a 35 pound Dorado on the Sea of Cortez, the vacation made us want to return again and again. Photos cannot do the idyllic setting justice. With two great restaurants close-by and the option of in-house cooking (my recommendation), Villa Mirasol leaves no detail unattended. We will return as soon as possible!

This is our second time vacationing at the Villa Mirasol and there's a reason for that. The pictures cannot do justice to the setting that you find yourself in when you walk into Villa Mirasol. It is a wonderful slice of heaven and a place to truly relax and enjoy a perfect vacation from the fast pace of life. The water is warm, and the beach is perfect, and you have it all to yourself! The staff is wonderful and eager to please. They take great care of you and you want for nothing. The grounds are well kept and the food is AMAZING! I would not book this without involving the chef. Definitely a favorite place when it comes to vacationing… and we’ve been on many.

Two families totaling 13 guests spent 8 nights at Villa Mirasol. Smooth communication with Karen started our experience out on the right foot. We flew into Cabo, rented a car from Cactus Rentals (also easy to work with) and enjoyed the scenic 2 hour drive to Villa Mirasol. We were greated by Sergio (and some yummy fresh pico) who stayed in contact with us throughout the visit & even coordinated to meet with the airline delivery guy to insure our lost luggage was returned--and he provided a piñata for the kids on our last night!! The layout is great! Comfortable, homey and well decorated private spaces and common spaces; awesome pool, hot tub, and beach--with chairs and kayaks all to ourselves, it made us feel like we were on our own private island. Granted our visit was in the heat of the summer, but the rooms were cool and the pool and ocean were like a bathtub....very relaxing! The kids kept themselves occupied going between the ocean, pool, hot tub, sandy beaches, coral beaches, shell hunting, and snorkeling with colorful fish! Plenty of space to spread out--lots of solitude if wanted/needed and yet laughter and smiles abounded when we were all together. The host and hostesses were perfect--made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout our stay....not to mention well fed---such a treat to have America & Vicki cook for us--both breakfasts and dinners had plenty of food and were very tasty. And when we cooked for ourselves, the kitchen and outdoor kitchen were perfect with plenty of dinnerware, pots and pans and utensils. Los Planes is close if you need a good Mexican hot dog, or a few food items, although if anything was needed, the staff were more than willing to help us out! (There are two restaurants near--but we were so relaxed we didn't venture out for food!) We took day trips to LaPaz (to visit family) and Cabo (son had to leave early & took kids to see the dolphins & downtown Cabo), but really, one would never need to leave Villa Mirasol as everything you need is there! Fishing was a bit slow this time of the year, but so nice to be picked up at the beach and dropped off with our catch each day. In essence, it was perfect and we can't wait to return! Thanks Villa Mirasol for sharing your paradise with us!

Great vacation. Amazing fun food and sights

I'd been to this property a few times before, and always had an excellent experience. We retained the services of the cook, and the meals were delicious. I'd recommend the cook, as there are only two restaurants nearby and variety is limited. The beach is clean and never crowded. There are not large waves, so it is good for children, not good for surfing or bodyboarding. The water is clean and often warm. There are rocks with colorful fish for snorkeling along the side of the beach. I took advantage of the excellent fishing nearby, there are many captains available farther down the beach. I'd recommend planning a trip a day in advance with a captain.

This place is truly breath taking! Most importantly, it is private and safe. The staff was extremely friendly, the food delicious, the accomodations confortable and clean. The location- EXPECTACULAR! They picked us up at the aiport and dropped us off on our departure date. We didn't have to worry about one single thing! We spent our time swimming, playing on the beach, kayaking, horse back riding relaxing and reading a good book by the pool side. They even helped us get in touch with a massage therapist who came to the house for the appointment. This is the perfect relaxing getaway!

I had the pleasure of staying at Villa Mirasol last year; and I will never forget it. Tired of busy tourist packed vacation spots with inflated prices and constant traffic; this place fit the bill precisely for a quiet, relaxed and highly romantic vacation destination; perfect for quiet quality time friends and family. This location is unique in that it offers some breathtaking scenery coupled with direct private beach access. For those travelers who are picky about beach quality; this one will not disappoint. Silky soft white small grain sand that feels wonderful to walk or lay in, this unique and historical stretch of the Baja coast has much any group looking for adventure day trips or just a get away from the daily grind. Very clean sand, coupled with crystal clear blue Baja water is a hard combination to beat anywhere in the world. I have been to destination beaches in Spain, France, Morocco, Thailand, Malaysia, Hawaii, Maui, Costa Rica, Chile, Cocos Islands, California, Oregon, Australia, and Alaska and, simply put, the Beach at Villa Mirasol is of world class quality that cannot be undersold. Baja offers some unique geography of cactus covered tumbling rocky bluffs folding into crystal clear blue water; and Villa Mirasol is a perfect example of exactly that. I personally found the house amenities to be beyond my expectations, comfortable beds, clean rooms, spacious bathrooms and a unique layout that allows guests to access the pool and beach from their own front patio. Villa Mirasol is far enough removed from La Paz that there is very little to no light pollution, and they night sky comes out in full force. Walking through the cool sand to the beach at night under a sky full of starts is something you won’t forget. I would recommend a car to anyone staying here; with transportation it’s an easy 20 minuets or so to La Ventana. For those uninformed; La Ventata is one of the best windsurfing and kite boarding locations in the world; Ventana Bay is famous for consistent north winds that blow from November to April. A combination of El Nortes (northerly fronts) and localized thermal winds make it possible to kite almost every day during the winter season. Charter fishing is available by arrangement from Villa Mirasol, the local fisherman can pick you directly from the beach for a half day or day of fishing. We did a day of fishing and caught several dorado, a rooster fish and a Bonita (that was during the month of May).

I already have another trip to Villa Mirasol booked. It is the dream vacation. Wake up seeing the sunrise from your bed, go for a run along a sandy beach that has no one else on it, eat a breakfast cooked by your private chef, do some yoga on the patch of grass between the pool and the ocean. The rest of the day I would spend swimming in the pool, hiking, playing on the beach, lounging by the pool, and snorkeling. All right by the house! I am counting down the days to my next trip.

This is one of my favorite spots in the world. The rental itself is beautiful with luxurious rooms and an great private beachfront area with a pool, hot tub and hammocks. The location is right on the beach and this particular beach is VERY private. There are very few other people who use it and it feels like you have the whole bay to yourself! The food is amazing, and fishing was fantastic. This is the place for you if you are looking to get away from the chaos of Cabo.

If you have a good sense of adventure but are still looking for a high quality vacation this is perfect. Really this place would suit most anyone. Some days we would just take it easy relaxing in the hammocks and playing on the beach. It is amazing how you can have the mile stretch of beautiful beach completely to yourself all day every day. Other days we would take an expedition on the sea kayaks and go fishing and snorkeling. It is a magical place.
