Desert Oasis with swimming pool, BBQ Wifi and outdoor firepit, bird watching

This place is a gem. Beautiful views of the mountains, exquisite desert landscaping, comfortable stand alone building with everything you need. We appreciated the peaceful and safe atmosphere, away from the busyness of some of the close by tourist attractions. Conveniently close to the airport. The hosts Britta and Brett couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful in helping us find the best places to visit.

The property is lovely but the hosts have everything set up so you are entirely dependent on them. We could not get our rental car to the property, even though they said a front wheel drive would be all right. If we needed a four wheel drive, they should have told us so we could rent one! So they would have to shuttle us any time we wanted to leave the property. The swimming pool was covered and we weren’t allowed to use it without asking them to take the cover off. There was a fire pit, but we couldn’t use it without asking them for wood. There was wifi, but only if we walked to their house and sat on their deck to use it. Etc. Etc. We specifically booked this place to be away from people and didn’t want to have to engage with our hosts for each and every move we made. Some people might like that, but we’re not those people. We paid a lot of money for six nights and had to leave after one night. We are not wealthy and had to rent another place “on the fly” and paid a premium to do so. Plus it was stressful and very upsetting (yes, there were tears) to learn that a listing that sounded so idyllic turned out to be quite traumatic for us. It would be very appreciated I’d we could receive a partial refund. We could not stay there because access to the property was misrepresented. We have used VRBO for other holidays but will be very careful if we decide to use again.

If you want to experience another side of the Baja other than it's beautiful beaches this is the place! It is off the beaten track. Very peaceful spot surrounded by nature ! Wake to the sound of the birds singing ! Loved it. Hosts are very helpful and accommodating.

Unique. Earthy (in a good way). Unpretentious. Free of bright lights and noise. Plenty of sunrise, sunset, star gazing, quiet. Wonderful place to build your day around birds, respectful visits from sweet dogs, sunrise to sunset and after. Most accommodating and helpful hosts ever.

You can't find a better host than Bretta and Britt. They are knowledgeable, friendly and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The cabins are cozy, the location is simply spectacular and is convenient to all attractions. It was a memorable experience for us and we will come back to the place again soon.

great change of pace from San Jose and San Lucas... excursions are great, resort is remote and secure, hosts are delightful! looking forward to our return soon....

This was our first trip to Mexico and what an amazing oasis we feel privileged to have stumbled upon. From our first minute driving off the highway from the airport, our exciting adventure began as we thought we were on a Mexican desert safari. Upon arriving at the Mini Mountain Resort, the breathtaking views, the unique ecosystem of plants and birds caught us by complete surprise. The peace and stillness of the night, made the stargazing like an IMAX infinite screen! We learned that most areas of interest to tour are all easily doable using this location as a home base. We highly recommend this destination for anyone wanting to experience Mexico. We hope to return someday to stay longer.

Very quiet. Delightful hosts and guests.

First let me say Britta and Brett were wonderful hosts. Everything about the week was excellent. The casita was perfect, everything you needed to be comfortable. The thing that was most enjoyable to us was the wonderful sounds of silence. Other than the odd plane what you heard was the birds, and the breeze. Very relaxing. Special thanks to our hosts for taking us with them on a road trip to the VidaSoul for dinner and an excellent band. Thanks for everything and we hope to see you again. BTW, ask Britta to stop and get you some of the best tortillas you will ever have in Santa Anita

What a find! The shear peace and quiet as well as a million stars every night made this an incredible experience. We would love to recommend this to everybody but have mixed emotions about sharing. The high desert (with pool) experience was a stark contrast to the Cabo Wabo pro drinking circuit.This made the return home(reality) a bit bumpy which is what a truly great vacation experience should do. The accommodations were as promised, our hosts were very gracious and now we are counting the days until the next trip to Santa Anita. Thanks Britta and Brett!!

This hidden oasis was a delightful place to land after escaping the chaos of the city. We woke up to birds chirping and explored the area during our morning walks. The days were spent enjoying the private pool and unwinding with friends. This is a hidden retreat amongst the cactus with carefully manicured pathways that are delightfully lit up at night. The stars were spectacular and we could see Saturn ascending in the eastern sky. The Casitas are clean and well maintained. Brett and Britta are gracious hosts and provided a wealth of local information. Upon our final day I was sad to pack up and wished we could stay longer to enjoy the magic of the surroundings.
