More Details:

Jim’s Cottages is a one-of a-kind compound that consists of two identical buildings built on an enormous hillside lot. Each building has an upper unit (1 BR, 1.5 Baths) and lower unit (2 BR, 1 Bath).

The property is ideally situated at the crest of the small hill above town, providing guests with the perfect combination of sweeping sea & mountain views, gentle breezes, tranquility and privacy while still being a 5-10 minute walk to beaches, shops and restaurants.

Each unit has its own entrance and large patio on opposite sides of the building to ensure the utmost privacy.

This unit features one queen and two double plush beds, well-stocked full kitchen, 10' high ceilings, large windows and double screen doors that allow the breeze to flow freely throughout, creating a refreshing, naturally ventilated space that keeps it cool even without using the AC. Guests can choose to privately dine inside or on their patio.

Television in living room has Roku (Apple TV or Firestick is available on request). Guests must use personal logins for Apple TV, Max, Netflix, etc. Some streaming services may not be accessible in Mexico due to copyright restrictions. WiFi is very fast and reliable for streaming and video calls from anywhere on the property. Cell signal is excellent, unlike some areas outside of town.

The expansive, beautiful pool area and palapa offer a variety of lounging and dining options, along with floating pool hammocks and noodles for added relaxation.

The exceptionally well-maintained grounds include an organic herb garden that's available to guests when in season.

The heated saltwater pool and spacious deck area create an ideal setting for relaxation and rejuvenation, offering a perfect alternative to the beach on windy days when the beach is less appealing.

The property is secured by walls and gates on all sides without obstructing the expansive views of the beautiful surroundings.

There are also 3 garages on the property that are available for an additional fee.

In addition to all the other amenities, the property has a robust backup generator system that keeps power, AC and internet fully functional in case of any power outages, which are not uncommon in Los Barriles.

    We had such a wonderful stay at Jim‘s cottage! The Casita is spacious, beautifully decorated, and has everything you could possibly need. It’s peaceful and quiet – perfect for relaxing – and the pool is an added bonus. Jim is a great host, friendly, and helpful if you have any questions. I truly didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to come back again

    Our stay was fantastic, the Casita was clean. The beds and couches were extremely comfortable. The pool was very nice with sitting areas adjacent, with an excellent view of the Sea of Cortes! I would definitely stay here again.

    Jim’s cottage was exactly as advertised and then some. There are so many extras that elevated our stay; from little things like coffee and creamer to shampoo and conditioner to having everything clearly explained and even labelled to eliminate any possible confusion. Jim and his wonderful fur baby Jackson are excellent hosts with answers and recommendations any time we asked. He also supplied us with beach gear and went out of his way to make us feel more than welcomed to Los Barriles. All this said, we did not feel uncomfortable at any time having the host on site. There was another couple in residence in the other cottage and we never felt like our privacy was being invaded. I would return again in a heartbeat.

    Amazing house, perfect location only downside would be the pool was small for a shared property. We weren’t fully able to enjoy the house and pool being that we are adults and we were sharing it with a family and children. It would be a perfect house to rent for a big family vacation.

    First of all, Jim was an amazing host! He was welcoming, helpful, and extremely accommodating. Communicating with Jim was easy and he even provided us with beach chairs/umbrellas during our stay. Secondly, the property was incredible - spotless and spacious, with all of the amenities of home. We were pleasantly surprised with the strong wifi, as well as the A/C and appliances. Everything was considered for a modern stay. Lastly, the quiet, relaxing outdoor space was a welcome retreat from the loud, busy streets of Los Barriles. My husband and our friends spent several days here just relaxing by the pool. And wow, what a view! Simply stunning sunrises overlooking the beach. It was a little bit of a walk (10 min.) from the main street, but that provided us with a spectacular view and also some peace and quiet away from the noise of the main road. We rented an ATV for the week to explore the area (it's what everyone does) and Jim provided us with a parking spot so that all worked out perfectly. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend this vacation home for its modern amenities, relaxing outdoor space and outstanding customer service. Thanks Jim! We hope to see you again very soon.

    Really enjoyed our stay at Jim’s Cottages. Our host made us feel welcome and helped us when needed. The units have a lovely view of the ocean & we were able to catch some spectacular sunrises from the window. The cottages are fairly new , clean and well equipped. All these attributes made our stay a memorable one.

    The property is lovely and well maintained. It has a view of the sea and a nice pool and outdoor shaded sitting area. Our unit was well designed, open, and with plenty of natural light. The kitchen had more equipment than most VRBOs, as well as some cooking supplies. Jim was there during our stay. He constantly asked if there was anything we needed, or if we had any issues with our unit. It was great to have the owner on site, as he is so helpful and pleasant. The property is a short walk to the main drag and the beach. Jim's Cottage exceeded our expectations in many ways! We would rent it again.
