Ocean View - Unique Mexican Contemporary Vacation home with Amenities!

Our modest vacation home is located in the beautiful exclusive beachfront community of Las Gaviotas, the Heart of the Baja Riviera...approximately 45 mins from the U.S. Border, south of San Diego. We have a 3 bedroom ~ 3 bath vacation family home. Maximum 6 person including children with NO EXCEPTIONS.
And, unfortunately, no pets allowed.

OCEAN VIEW:
Sunny weather breaking out into the Spring to Summer season. For 2021, Baja is giving us a mix of rain, cloudy with intermittent sunny, warm & pleasant weather. Some nights are a bit nippy, but we have a fireplace and every bedroom including bathrooms have a wall space heater.

Casa Franz is located in the middle of the complex, on the 3rd Tier below the Tennis courts, as road noise traffic from the free & toll road are virtually non-existent as compared to the 3 story condo units on the back tier of which previous guests have commented & experienced as a real source of annoyance. Casa Franz enjoys it's peace and quiet from the ocean's rhythmic waves with a green belt ocean view right in front giving our guests an extra added pleasure.

CASA FRANZ SET FOR 2021WINTER.
Don't miss out on the Winter season (Oct-Mar) as our rates are lower and the unique opportunity to enjoy the refreshing brisk cool weather as the winter solstice begins. Sunsets are especially fantastic in Reds and Orange hues. We have a fireplace with the use of the flame logs to create a nice cozy fireside mood complimented with our small built in wall space heaters in every room, just in case it gets too chilly.

A WORD ABOUT COVID19 & CASA FRANZ
Our cleaning procedures are ENHANCED and we will send you an update as you get closer to arrival date.

IN THE MEANTIME, THE MEXICO'S "COVID TRAFFIC LIGHT SYSTEM" IS AVAILABLE.

AMAZING house & Experience
Rented the house with some friends and family and had a great experience from the start. Arturo was VERY helpful with recommendations for the area on things to do and routes to take. And the house was amazing - super clean, nicely decorated and included games and books and was very close to the pool. I have stayed at a few rentals in Las Gaviotas and this house was my favorite. I'll definitely be back to stay next time I'm in the area.

Awesome casa!
We have been coming to Las gaviotas for awhile now and we were so pleased on how well stocked the house was. We have never stayed at a home that provided us with so much. Loved that you even had a toothbrush emergency kit’! Everything we needed was provided. Thank you Arturo and Amy for a beautiful house. We loved the decorations and the view of the ocean was amazing! . Our trip was way too short and we will surely stay here again in the future.

Beautiful location. The home was clean and comfortable for our family of six. I think they had the nicest towels of any VRBO we’ve ever stayed at. The host was easy to communicate with and very gracious. Please note that the house doesn’t have an oven, but we were able to cook cinnamon rolls on the balcony bbq and they were delish! Great place!

Terrible communication
My friends and I booked Arturo’s place to celebrate my birthday. There were 6 of us so naturally we were taking more than 1 car. My friends got there before us & needed the code to get in. When I texted Arturo for it I got this incredibly rude & uncalled for text back: “NO! You are the primary guest & you are suppose to be the first to enter! No one else. You should have advise me upfront if this wasn’t you plan..” He did end up giving us the code, but it started the trip off on a bad note. The next day we couldn’t turn the shower off so my husband had to shut off the water valve to the house. Arturo couldn’t get a plumber out until the next day, which he did refund a night for, but not until we asked for it. He kept texting & calling & wanting us to be the middle man between him & his plumber, which we didn’t want to take time out of our vacation for, nor was it our responsibility. The place was nice & cute but it really put a damper on our weekend. Also the tennis courts are super close & woke us up every morning. Definitely wouldn’t recommend.

Amazing
Casa Franz was the perfect stay for myself, two kids (9 and 5) and my parents. Arturo went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had a great time. I emailed him a couple of times during our stay and he responded immediately. Even texted me to make sure everything was going well. Would definitely stay again. Only wish the kitchen had an oven but we made do without one just fine. Just a heads up in case you buy baking items. Loved everything about the house. Very close walking distance to the pool too
