I had an incredible stay at this beachfront casita! The location was unbeatableâjust steps from the sand with stunning ocean views right from the patio. The home was clean, cozy, and exactly as described, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. I especially appreciated the fully equipped kitchen and thoughtful touches like beach chairs and towels.The host was friendly and responsive, offering great local recommendations and making check-in seamless. Waking up to the sound of the waves each morning was absolute bliss. I canât wait to come back!Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the water
Cute home equipped with everything you need. Unbeatable view!!! Wake up to a private beach right in your front yard. If you want to get away from it all, this is it. We enjoyed our 4 night stay at Casita Calypsito very much. Since we are not into night life or big crowds, we found this property to be perfect for us. Approximately 25 minutes away from major stores. Oxxo, Bodega Aurrera, Sam's club etc. We strongly recommend this place if you want to feel at home away from home.
We had a lovely, relaxing stay at Casita Calypsito. The house's location, right on the beach, cannot be beat. The house is well-stocked and has comfortable beds. We enjoyed the fact that the house is further out of town; we saw few people and had the beach to ourselves for the most part. We had one small issue caused by mother nature, and the owners responded immediately and took care of it promptly. The best part, for us, was that we were able to bring our dog. He absolutely loved the beach!
Me, my daughter, my mom and 2 dogs first time traveling and out of the country at that. It was a great time. Perfect size house. Had everything we needed. The beach was nice and quiet and secluded away from the public. If you are looking for a nice private get away, this is your place. The hosts were SUPER responsive. The property is exactly as shown and really does have everything you need. I would ensure you bring drinking water and food to prepare for the duration of your trip as you are pretty far away from most everything. Great time!
This is such a gem that I almost hesitate sharing itâs existence, for fear it will get too popular. What we especially appreciated: gated parking court, well-appointed kitchen, 2 en suite bedrooms, covered patio that provided shade all day long, nice linens and towels. Special add was the sound of the patio screen door banging shut, it was so reminiscent of fun times in summertime cabins in years past, and Iâm not being sarcastic, donât fix it! Itâs a good 20 minutes into town, but an easy drive and several oyster bars along the way. We enjoyed El Barco the best. Thank you for a wonderful respite!
Our party consisted of three older women and this was a perfect place for us. We have been on this beach before where the swimming and shelling are excellent and you can walk for miles. We spent most of our time on the deep porch watching the sea, shore birds, pelicans and dolphins. The kitchen was exceptionally well-equipped and we very much appreciated the hot showers and the outdoor shower. The air conditioning worked perfectly in every room. It was also good that the car could be parked off the road behind a secure gate. We had a slight glitch with the internet connection but the owner sorted it out immediately. We'll be back if we can!
We had a very enjoyable stay. Highlights were being right on the beach and a very large patio to enjoy it. The beach was not touristy at all. The fact that we could enjoy it with our dog, Teddy made it extra special. And getting information about a dog sitter who did a wonderful job. Also appreciate the inner courtyard to lock up our car in. Less worries. A few suggestions, in write up it should be made very clear how far the casita is from Peurto Penasco, so occupants bring plenty of water and provisions. It is not a short ride to nearest store. Minor suggestions: towels racks in bath rooms, and lounge chair for patio.
Thank you. We really joyed our stay.
Elise, Jack, and Teddy
We've stayed at this property before. We loved it then and we loved it even more this time 'round! Kelly was quick and easy to communicate with. I emailed her multiple times with questions before our visit and she always provided prompt
and informative replies. The Casita provided the perfect quiet and peaceful get away. There was no one else around. We had miles of open clean sandy beaches in every direction the entire week of our stay. The house itself had everything we needed; full kitchen (we brought all our food and prepared all our meals there), great bedrooms (comfortable beds) and bathrooms, ample covered patio (where we spent most of our time and ate all our meals at the picnic table), TV for movies (a wide variety of CD's available), comfortable living room/dining space, BBQ, AC in each room, etc. We brought our own drinking water (2 gallons/day was good for the two of us). We were conservative in our water use at the house and never came close to emptying the cistern. The internet was inconsistent throughout our stay. Great opportunity to put down our devices and focus instead on each other and the natural beauty that is the Gulf of California at Rocky Point. We look forward to staying at the Casita again! WonderFULL experience!
The beach front access was outstanding. Great chairs to lounge in and super serene. Loved being away from the hustle and bustle. The house itself is cute, but has some issues in December. The heater in the living room did not function at all. The heater in the queen bedroom did function well. The water pressure was zero and the toilet barely flushed. We had just enough towels for us to use, couldn't wrap my hair and body in a towel lest I use someone else's. I didn't realize we wouldn't have any shampoo or soap. Luckily we had some stored away in our travel bag. For 175 dollars a night I would think we would have had these available. The doors to the bedrooms are louvered (have slats in them) and not very private in terms of noise cancellation. To be fair we did not contact the owners about the heater. We were visiting with another family for a celebration of life, so we didn't really have time to inquire with anyone that is why I am giving 4 stars instead of 3 stars, since we didn't seek help with any of the above mentioned items.
The house is just perfect for our family. Great location on an amazing beach. The house is in excellent condition. The communication was excellent with the owners. Highly recommend for a small family to enjoy themselves.
Great weather lots of shells walking on the pristine beach. Great house. 5 star Instant hot water great fridge great heaters. Owners are awesome. Highly recommend this for people that want to get away from the hustle and bustle
This was the easiest trip we have ever booked with wonderful communication with the owner. She was very accommodating and responsive. Check-in was a breeze with clear instructions and driving directions. First thing I noticed when we walked in was how clean the property was inside & out, and how good it smelled. It is very important to me for a place to be clean. It had every comfort of home. You will need to go grocery shopping of course or bring food with you at least for the first night. WiFi worked perfectly. Itâs right on the beach with beautiful views of the ocean and the perfect sunsets! They also had a tankless water heater which was nice. Town is about 30 minutes away, but itâs was perfect for us because it wasnât crowded and peaceful. The neighbors, mostly from the states, were so eager to share where to go and what to do. I didnât meet anyone that wasnât helpful. I would definitely stay here again with the wonderful experience we had. My only suggestion is the main bedroom needs a bigger bed. Itâs personal preference because itâs a queen and I prefer a king. Thatâs it. You canât go wrong renting this Casita, especially with the wonderful experience with the owners.
We took our dog with us to the beach this time and have a wonderful experience. The property is exactly as described. The beach was wonderful to walk on, lots of shells and fun things to find. Not many people. Two families live here, permanently, and most other houses were empty for our visit. It was delightful to hear ocean waves. Would definitely recommend and will definitely go again.
We had a fabulous stay in this lovely casita. It was well equipped with everything we needed to cook and enjoy the pristine beach. We had a very minor glitch and it was immediately taken care of. The communication with the owners was excellent. We will definitely book again!
Pros: Ocean Views! Sunsets! Dolphins! Stars! Property is right on the beach, great for walks, large covered patio, beach shade, fire pit, kitchen well stocked, (bring spices, coffee, extra drinking water to make ice-they have ice trays), quiet, beach to yourself, shells, bathroom stocked with extra towels/shampoo/soap, secured courtyard area for vehicle, had plenty of water for showers although we did conserve just in case, there is a gage to check and a handy man taking care.
Cons: internet issues, master bed on hard side, there are no stores nearby so plan ahead, especially for ice and water (this is well communicated in the listing), property is on a cistern. Drinking water availale at Mayan Palace, but not ice. The more remote location of this property is actually a PRO for me, no Sandy Beach crowds, there are a few vendors.
Would definately return, one of the most relaxing vacations ever!
My friend and I had such a peaceful relaxing stay here! The casita was perfect for us. We loved how it was located in a quiet area RIGHT ON THE BEACH! Loved the covered back patio over looking the ocean, the windowed wall from the living and kitchen area overlooking the ocean, the friendly neighbors, and the simplicity of our stay. Will definitely rent again!
Owners are semi-retired living in Scottsdale, Arizona. Mark enjoys golf, volunteering at church (CCV) and traveling. Kelly enjoys managing the vacation rentals (and will be your main contact during your stay), volunteering at various animal rescues and traveling.
Playa Dorada beach is great for families and couples wanting to get away and enjoy a quiet week/weekend.
Being away from the Malecon allows guests to enjoy nature up close: we've seen seahorses (so cool!), octupus, turtles (from time to time), and dolphins. This is a kid and pet friendly property and allows parents to enjoy a cocktail on the patio while watching their kiddos from the covered patio. Life can't get any better!
We come down to Rocky Point regularly and have built our dream home right next door, Casa Calypso.
Rocky Point visitors who come down for the parties will likely pass on this property, as we are located in a group of houses. If you enjoy the sounds of the ocean and serenity then Playa Dorada is for you.
