We are making efforts towards water conservation in La Paz. We are adopting water-efficient technologies, growing mostly native vegetation in our decorative gardens, promoting responsible water usage, and building urban rainwater capture basins.

Finally, we provide canvas grocery bags you can use in your trips to the local stores, farmer’s and fish markets.

The restaurant Tailhunter, a very popular expat hangout, is located on the block across the street on the sidewalk facing the promenade. There is a tiny seafood stand on the right side of the same block (as you face the promenade), which has excellent ceviche, and makes for a very local food experience.

This house was perfect for our vacation. Location was amazing! We walked to pretty much everything and VERY close to the Malecon. We used the rooftop every night. There is a building in front of the house but you still get beautiful views of the ocean and sunsets. The kitchen did not have many tools or spices but we ate out most of our stay anyway. Floors could use a good mop but didn't bother us. Great house with AC units in every room. Bathrooms in every room which is so convenient and great for privacy. If we return to La Paz we will definitely book again.

We stayed 6 weeks and really got to know the space and neighborhood. Ana was a real “rock star”! She responded quickly and effectively to the few issues we had. The gate to the front terrace was broken and she brought repairmen in with a welder to fix it! The kitchen is supplied with basic utensils. I like to cook so hit one of the many local houseware/department stores for a few more kitchen supplies, which I left behind. The few things we asked to have repaired are those staying just a few days will simply overlook. As someone who also has a VRBO and is staying long term, I hope it was appreciated that I brought them to the owner’s attention. This home is very clean but could use some minor refreshing. The operator manual needs updating, chipped dish ware needs replacing, some screen doors did not fit well and the draperies needed hooks and were hard to open and close. The kitchen could use some counter task lighting. This is the first time we’ve stayed in a neighborhood in Mexico, so the car alarms and barking dogs are something to get used to. Bring industrial grade ear plugs! The building in front obstructs what would be a panoramic view from the top terrace but blocks much of the noise at night from the nearby Malacon. Instead, it has two million dollar views! The hot tub is wonderful, but can take up to three hours to heat. With the many excellent shops and restaurants nearby we found a car unnecessarily, unless it’s to visit the beautiful towns and beaches nearby.

Great property and location. Host was amazing communicator. Very clean and exactly as advertised. Even came with extras like a welcome cake and some coffee. Only issue was the dogs next door barking a lot, but that's not the fault of the property. Would stay again.

My girlfriends and I come to La Paz once a year for anual Dr. Appointments and to shop. This house was perfect for us with total privacy bedrooms and on suites. We didn’t have much time to spend there as we did a lot of running around, but definitely reserve it next year if available. Property mgr. Monica was very responsive and an excellent host!!

We enjoyed Casa del Desierto. Lots of space - a perfect set-up for 2 couples, or a family and a couple. Well appointed and charming home. Great communication from the host, easy-to-follow check-in, and good information in the house.
