    Las Gaviotas is a gated community with 24 hour security located between Rosarito Beach and Ensenada. It is not a hotel, but a collection of individually owned homes with their own unique character, but also conform to an overall theme. Each row of homes is stepped up so everyone has unfettered ocean views. There is a beach, an Olympic sized pool, jacuzzi, shuffleboard and a tennis court available. You can stock up and stay here without ever leaving during you stay. There is even a fish guy that comes in every Saturday selling fresh fish such as shrimp, halibut, sea bass and yellow tail. He was sells cerviche and oysters. During the summer there is a taco stand and Bloody Mary bar at the pool. The break in front of Las Gaviotas is well known. There is always a large contingent of surfers staying at any given time. The complex is fully staffed and they do an excellent job keeping the place clean and manicured. All the homes have full service utilities and most have wifi. To book a house, just go to VRBO and Airbnb.

    We've own a home in here for over 34 years and it's just as remarkable as always. Friends come down and rent other homes and makes for a fun sun filled safe place to relax and just appreciate life. Highly recommend to anyone from the states wanting a safe fully staffed gated 24 hours a day community.

    The best place to chill and make friends. We always have a good time!!!! The new side walk is just amazing. Security 24 hrs and they are very nice and helpful. The spa, gym, shuffle board, pool and the beach is just the perfect combination for the best weekend in your life!!! Two tents offering tacos, sea food and drinks make so easy to enjoy your self and don't worry about nothing just if your cup is getting empty:) Sleep hearing the ocean is always a good idea the views are breathtaking. I hope we come back soon

    Looking for a beach home to rent? WANT TO AVOID THE HIGH BOOKING FEES OF AIRBNB AND VRBO? Our family has been coming to Las Gaviotas for 3 decades. There are 300 homes in the complex and over 100 of them rent for short times like weekends. Contact an owner through Baja California Las Gaviotas on TripAdvisor. Click "Vacation Rentals" on the header for listings of available homes. You can rent a complete house for lower than just a hotel room in Rosarito Beach especially when your group is 4 or more. The facilities for everyone are: a large community pool, Jacuzzi, tennis court, shuffleboard court, children's playground, beach volleyball, two private beaches and a beautiful malecon (ocean walkway). Private gated entrance and 24 hour walking security patrols are provided along with a complete system of security cameras which are monitored from the security office. This is a very safe and quiet community. We recommend homes that include the taxes, cleaning fees, parking fees and resort fees in their rates to get a correct comparison of the costs.

    THEE PLACE!

    This might be the best place of its kind. It's a place to relax, take in the natural beauty and the sounds of the ocean. Staying there was very relaxing.,especially getting away the everyday noises of the city. I also swam in the pool and took in some sun. fished, Ate some of the poolside made fish &Shrimp tacos,Walked along the beach and took some nice strolls. Staying at CASA De Nola was a great experience and hope to do it again.

    The sunset on the deck was gorgeous.

    See all

    This gated community is beautiful and can't be topped in surrounding areas. Private beach really tops off the experience.

He communicated very well sending all necessary info prior to arrival. I was delighted to find we were in walking distance to the famous K-38 surf break and also local places to eat. Native Residence is at the top of a mountain, in a private gated community with lovely homes, so if you plan to walk, it's safe but know it's quite a hike. The views of the mountains, Pacific and Rosarito's Christ of the Sacred Heart statue are beautiful. Fortunately, Ubers are available if you don't have your own vehicle. The chalet is classy, has high quality materials, yet it was very comfortable. The lights were thoughtfully decorated and very tasteful. The scent of the bed linens were absolutely incredible. Our room offered fresh water, a small fridge, an espresso machine, a smart tv with projector, black out blinds and a private fire pit on our balcony. The three chalets have their own shared jacuzzi to use with ocean view and it was heavenly. They offer fresh breakfast à la cart on the upper shared patio or in your room. It has a very quaint community feel there yet you have your own space if you prefer it. Carlos and the ladies working there were very kind and helpful. I'm happy we stayed here and hope to return again in the future!

Honestly, the experience exceeded our expectations in every way. The property is even more beautiful in person than in the photos, with a peaceful atmosphere that made it the perfect anniversary getaway. The host and co-host were incredibly kind, responsive, and accommodating. Knowing we were celebrating our anniversary and hoping for an amazing ocean view, they graciously upgraded us to the Miel Master Suite at no additional charge. It was such a thoughtful gesture, and the ocean views were absolutely breathtaking. The suite itself was immaculate, beautifully designed, and the bed was so comfortable. I honestly can't remember the last time I slept that well! We also loved the shared kitchen, which created such a welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast was a highlight each morning with the chilaquiles and lavender pancakes were absolutely delicious, and having a nespresso machine in the room was the perfect added touch. We truly can't say enough great things about Native Residence. We loved our stay so much that while we were still there, our close friends booked the exact same suite for their anniversary next month! We already know they're going to love it just as much as we did.

    It's been a long time since my last review for La Paloma WIVC and here I am again. I come every…read moreyear or two been doing that for 40 years. It's important to note that La Paloma WIVC is primarily a residential location where people live around or maybe have their vacation homes here. There are two timeshare companies that own properties here. One is world, international vacation club and the other is Worldmark. Your experience here could vary, depending on which timeshare company you use or if you're renting from a private owner so not all reviews are necessarily reviewing the same thing unless they give you unit information or who they're renting from. My experience, we are here from WIVC. We have been using world international for years as I said 40 years at least maybe a little longer. We have been lucky enough to have multiple locations in a small area with its own pool and that has been really wonderful. There's also people who live in this section so there's a mixture of people. This year we had five units for multiple family members to come and get together which is what we usually do typically every other year. I'm currently staying in unit number 61 which is a great two bedroom unit that faces the pool from its balcony. It's a first floor so no stairs and as usual our room is the same as it's been since I've been coming here. We're all international employees a cleaning crew. They clean your room every day and they do everything. I try to help out and wash my own dishes usually but if I leave some in the sink, they take care of that. Once a week in the middle, they changed the sheets the rest of the time they come in and make beds replace all your towels clean the room. It's just really nice. Obviously these rooms are old but they do keep them updated. There's a lot of tile involved. It's a very Mexican aesthetic so I love that about it. One of the negatives might be that there is no air-conditioning in these units, but we know this and we bring fans to keep it cool. The rooms come with everything you need just like any time that you use a timeshare got all of your dishes and cooking utensils full kitchen in the two bedroom unit. You have a master bedroom with a bathroom and there is a common bathroom that can be used for everybody and there is a second bedroom with two twin size beds. So clearly designed for mom Dad and two kids, but it also works out for cousins hanging out together like us! The complex itself is incredibly safe. They have Security walking all the time keeping an eye on things they don't miss much so I feel 100% secure here. Our cars are behind a gated Security gate to in order to get in here you have to go through a security guard and be a resident or have a parking pass because you're staying here on vacation. The landscaping is incredible. It has never changed. It's beautiful garden setting and you really are right on the beach. It really hasn't changed over the years. There are four pools. There are tennis courts. I haven't made it back into the clubhouse this week. I know there's pool tables, but I don't know if they still have the sauna and steam room. I'll update if I get in there. That shows how busy we've been on this trip busy laying in the sun on the beach ha ha There is also an on-site café they're closed on Wednesdays but they have breakfast lunch and dinner. We've eaten there for dinner our first night altogether and it was fabulous. The coconut shrimp is recommended! And family members have had breakfast during this week and enjoyed it so definitely recommended. We had a lot of fun there. Overall, no change in my rating. I've been coming here since I was a teenager and I love it and we hope to continue coming as long as I can.

    Positives: the place is nice and clean…read more negatives: security was crazy rude. I went there with my sister and 9 year old niece. We didn't realize that she couldnt go in the jacuzzi. She was there like 3 minutes. Security shows up and says she cant be in there.. we are like no prob wont happen again. He stays there next to us just staring. After a few minutes we are like, is there anything else? yes, you have to wait for the security manager to come and give you a written warning and if it happens again you will be fined. Like what?! he stands there 10 minutes waiting for manager.. it was so uncomfortable all the guests were staring at us it was embarrassing but funny you wouldve thought we smuggled in cocaine..see pictures.. it was so weird.. There is security everywhere i guess that's good but they were writing citiations constantly i guess thats how they make money on the side!

The location itself is not the greatest as Primo Tapia area…read moredidnt really have much to offer and we had to drive a lot to get to places to eat and stuff. The great part about the location is the view! is right in front of the beach and has private access to it. Along with a pool and jacuzzi. The property itself was okay looking. I was not very impressed but the decor definitely made one feel in vacation. There is security 24/7 too. On the down side, the place was too cold and they only provided 2 heaters, one of which was propane It was not ideal to fall asleep to it and in the mornings it was not enough to keep us warm in the living room. So only one room (the one with the electric heater) was nice and somewhat cozy. At some point it was warmer outside the house than inside of it. That may be good for summer but it was the worst for winter. Also the lock for the place did not work, so we had to leave it unlock when we left. Keep that in mind. Also there was a party somewhere near by that did not stop until 4:40ish am. We were exhausted the next day so it was not the best experience and we wont be back. The staff was friendly and welcoming though. I give them that much.

The owner does nothing to resolve situations then lies to VRBO about the issues. This place looks good in pictures, but is in very bad shape. Owner is a retired white lawyer who bought this place to retire, but does nothing to maintain it but occasional sweeping and not much more. Pool murky, jacuzzi cold, no water at times. This is an absolute dive.
