Cerritos Beach Palace Studio Gaia, Tranquil Beachfront Studio for swim or surf

This ground-level studio is quite perfect for a solo-traveler or couple. Walk out from the cool stone interior to the miles of golden sandy beach just steps away. Los Cerritos Beach is ideal for surfing, yoga, swimming and complete serenity.  Gated & secure, featuring a full kitchen and private walk-out to your own patio and garden area. A perfect haven for the adventurer at heart, or for those just looking to relax and get away from it all. For inquires about other rentals on the property, visit cerritosbeachpalace

The Space:
This is a genuine slice of paradise. I recently completed building this home and I'm looking forward to sharing this tranquil space with you. Enjoy the picturesque waves. Drop a fishing line in from shore or eat baja fish tacos in the nearest town of Pescadero. Grab your board and surf, or rent one from just down the beach! Have a picnic, watch the ocean life jumping and play in the water in front of you. After sunset, enjoy the bright moon and starry sky. There are ATV rentals, horseback riding and hiking all within a 5 km / 3 mile radius. We are conveniently located 15 minutes away from the charming artisan town of Todos Santos and 45 minutes away to Cabo’s night-life. We can also accommodate large groups of up to 14 people.

Guest Access:
Enter through the secure, gated entrance where plenty of parking is available. There is a wonderful beach area right in front with a shaded outdoor bed, recliner chairs, and hammocks on the sand where you are welcome to hang out and enjoy the sun or stars. It’s a private beach out front, which will only be shared with other guests of the property.

Guest Interaction:
Looking forward to saying hi! If I'm not here though, my caretakers will be able to handle your check-in and check-out, and any questions you might have. You have a private deck and suite, however there may be other guests on the property staying in one of our other suites.

Other things to note:
Having a vehicle is essential in order to get around. There are spectacular places to check out as well that create more incentive to rent a vehicle during your stay (waterfalls, other beaches, small colonial towns, restaurants, etc.). The local township of El Pescadero is about 5 minutes up the road by car while Todos Santos is an additional 10 minutes north and boasts some of the greatest festivals/art shows and specialty items of the Baja. At various times of the year you can catch whales migrating, turtles hatching, and some of the best surf in the world.

The neighborhood
People are very friendly in this area, and if you simply want to kick back and enjoy the tranquility, you won't find a better place. Free from noise and hustle-bustle, this is a gorgeous getaway vacation home. There is a convenience store across the road and a delicious locally owned restaurant next door from it that prepares authentic cuisine.

Getting Around:
Buses run usually every hour however it is necessary to have a car in Baja in order to get around and have a stress-free and fun vacation. Most of what you'll need supply-wise can be found in the small town of El Pescadero, a 5 minute drive up the road and for specialty items and a slightly more active atmosphere, the larger town of Todos Santos is only 10 minutes further north or the drive to Cabo is a quick 45 minutes if you'd like to check out the city hub or night life.

Great property away from the hustle and bustle
My wife and I looked this property to stay for a few nights on our anniversary trip. We had such a great time taking walks on the beach and eating our meals outside on the patio. Cerritos Beach just north of here is great for surfing and has some cool restaurants and a little farther north of that are Pescadero and todos Santos.B have great restaurant options. The owners were very . We stayed in the studio and it had everything we needed.

Total beach experience
My husband and I stayed in the studio and our kids and grandkids stayed in the three bedroom unit. What a great, relaxing time we had! I love the fact that this place is off the grid but not lacking in amenities. This is not a luxury resort, it’s better! We were able to relax outside as adults while the kids played safely in the sand inside the fenced area. On the beach, we watched whales almost every day, enjoyed walking on the beach and even a beach fire at night. This place met all our wants and needs and then some!

Fantastic location, host, & overall vibe!
A friend and I stayed for 4 nights. It was such a treat! The property is right on the beach, and beach lounge furniture is all set up (hammock, chairs, shade bungalo's). There's an outdoor shower to take the first layer of sand off. It's about a mile walk along the beach (great walk) to the surfing and action of Los Cerritos, while being distanced enough to get true relaxation and calm. The host Fred, as well as his family & caretaker Alma are fantastic! Very helpful and accommodating. I honestly cannot wait to come back. Thank you!

Great option for couples or solo travellers. Great private beach location and with great options to sit down and enjoy the sunsets. All was clean and tidy. Amenities and kitchen utensils are basic but enough for meals that require light prep.

Wonderful location, right on the beach. The suites were clean, well appointed, and close to the surf beach, town, and Cerritos is a great spot to use as a home base. Dealing with Fred was great, he was quick to respond, flexible, and happy to provide tips and suggestions for places to go, and things to do. He and Lucienne were perfect hosts. We'll be back to see them for sure.

This property was the perfect place for me. I could take a short drive to town, chill on the beach or grab a beverage at the bar up the road. Fred was a wonderful host and a great guy all around. I would definitely stay here again! Thanks Fred! - Crissy

Difficult to find. When I called owner he was rude and in Canada. His daughter or niece was there taken care of it. We found the room. Nothing was cleaned. Dishes in the sink. She was on the beach. We had to go looking for her. She didn’t know we were coming. We decided not to stay and she didn’t seem to care. I called the owner back and told him and he didn’t seem to care either. When I mentioned how I would go about a refund he hung up on me.

Off the beaten path and no frills
Scenic loation with primative private beach. Strong currents so no swimming there. Had to go up to Cerritos public beach to get in the water. There were great little places to eat in Pescadero and Todos Santos. The studio is a converted garage with no A/C and very small windows so no off shore breeze to cool down the room. It is out in the desert and with that comes desert critters of the multi-legged variety. Wear your shoes. The host is very nice and communication was easy and always accessible. There are dogs on property and they bark early in the morning but do not bother the guests. Overall, a decent place and it matched the description.

Great Stay
The pictures portrayed the property accurately. I wouldn't stay here without a vehicle as it's a 5-10 minutes from a lot of things, but that was part of why we liked it. Mostly private secluded beach away from it all. The ocean had a strong rip current at times, so need to be cautious.

Fred was amazing and got back to me quickly with whatever I was needing. Had lots of recommendations that were spot on. Property is perfectly appointed for a beach casita. Nothing fancy but clean and well stocked with whatever you need. Right on the beach! A 20 min walk to Cerritos Beach. I will return!

Great place on the beach
Spacious studio with everything you need. Awesome location right on the beach and nice palapa and chairs to hang out on the beach. A short drive to pescadero and todos santos. Don't follow Google maps pin as that took us several km too far. Going north, turn left on dirt road just past km 69 (it's just past where the median starts so your first time it's easier to go past it and get there from the other direction). It's just north of the two blanket factory buildings. Follow the signs once you're on the dirt road. There'ss a cool bar called Art & Beer also at km 69 that is walkable from the studio. You can also walk 1.5 miles up the beach to Cerritos with a few food options. Barracudas had some of the best fish and shrimp tacos

Fred was great to communicate with, and had plenty of insight to share about the area, all welcome.

We loved our stay. This was the perfect location for us, close enough to some towns but far enough away that we enjoyed a very quiet beach. You need a car to really experience the area. Just the basics at this rental, but has all you really need. Fred and Lucienne are great and know the area well. Would go back tomorrow if I could! Make sure you try the tacos at Barracuda at Cerritos Beach!
