OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: Kiters & Wing foilers: There are two launch spots within a 5 and 10-minutes' walk. The closer launch point is only recommended for intermediate and experienced kiters, and for experienced wing foilers. Noise at night: Although the town is usually "sleepy" by 9 pm, be aware that occasionally people drive around proud of their music. It is part of their culture, so we can only say welcome to Baja, Mexico! But don't worry, you'll get used to it. But if you are sensitive to noise at night, a couple of earplugs will take care of it. Small town infrastructure: This is small town in Baja Mexico, where infrastructure is not the best. Power outages and infrastructure failures are not uncommon and are out of our control. The environment is harsh on things and will wear and deteriorate things fast. We do NOT offer refunds for things out of our control or if the home is out of a feature for 1-2 days. Guest access Our guests have access to every space in the house except for a couple of storage units that keep machines and house supplies. Other things to note Hot Tub: Only available seasonally, between mid-November and mid-March. Kiters: There are two beaches only 5 and 10 minutes away (walking). The first is ideal for intermediate and advanced kiters, as the bluff makes a small wind shadow. The second beach, just 120 meters south, has a wider sandy beach and totally friendly for beginners. Several kiteboarding schools take their students to start a down-winder from that beach. Beach lovers who are not kiters: The nearby beaches are beautiful and private and excellent for walks! Just note that the sand is a bit thicker than the sand in South Beach. At night: Although the town is usually "sleepy" at 9 pm, occasionally, people drive around proud of their music. We can just say welcome to Baja, Mexico! But don't worry, you'll get used to it. But if you are sensitive to noise at night, a couple of earplugs will take care of the noise.
