Baja Bliss
Immerse yourself in the unique beauty of the east cape of Baja California Sur at Casa Duna, a self-contained beachfront oasis. Spread across 1.5 acres of dunes, the compound boasts two elegant buildings with guest rooms, two spacious palapas, two pools, over 6,000 sq. ft of patios, and lush native gardens. Enjoy a private escape in this one-of-a-kind environment.
Nestled at the southern tip of the laid-back fishing village of La Ventana, Casa Duna is built for relaxation and adventure with family and friends. In addition to the main house, the compound includes Casa Pitaya, a detached and private casita, which can be booked for an additional nightly fee.
From kiting and biking to swimming and birdwatching, this is the perfect destination for your next adventure. We invite you to be our guest, and experience all that Casa Duna has to offer.
Thoughtfully Designed
Designed by LA-based architectural firm Shubin Donaldson, Casa Duna was built to respect the fragile ecosystem around it: primary structures are constructed from highly efficient recycled materials, solar panels provide both power and hot water, and the gardens are irrigated by waste-water. In addition to breathtaking views of the Sea of Cortez and Cerralvo Island, and miles of unspoiled beaches, it’s just a 15 minute walk along the sand to the center of town. There, and even in the immediate neighborhood, you’ll find casual restaurants, simple and friendly bars, and even a few small spas.
Things To Do
During your stay at Casa Duna, we invite you to enjoy its awe-inspiring surroundings. While yoga on the beach and relaxing with a book on the roof observatory are family favorites, La Ventana is also a major hub for adventure. In addition to being one of the top kite-sports destinations on the planet, the area also plays host to world-class fishing, mountain biking, and scuba diving. So, whether you want to swim with whale sharks or learn to hydrofoil, let Casa Duna be your private gateway to unforgettable adventure and unparalleled relaxation.
Amenities
We spared no expense when designing and building Casa Duna, and have incorporated as many comforts as possible. In addition to many other amenities, the compound features outdoor sleeping patios for starlight snoozes, a beachfront yoga area, summer and winter pools, a chef-inspired gourmet kitchen, a wood-burning pizza oven, large airy living areas, a rooftop observatory, a small gym, highspeed WiFi, and more.
Local Expertise
Our resident property manager is happy to arrange anything that might make your stay extra special. Common requests include private kite lessons, airport pickup in Los Cabos, on-site massages, yoga lessons on the patio, fishing expeditions, a private chef, and much more.
Our family has been coming to La Ventana for over 15 years, and we are happy to organize or provide suggestions for wonderful day trips you may want to make - to nearby La Paz, the capital of Baja California Sur - to El Triunfo and its mining museum - to Todos Santos for art galleries and Pacific surfing - to Cerralvo island for exploring - or to the countless other beautiful places in the region.

"Third year in a row at Casa Duna, already reserving for next year with my family. Words don't really do the experience justice. Everything is sublime."

"I cannot imagine a more perfect spot. It was a perfect mix of romance, luxury, relaxation and adventure. Each morning involved a bike ride through the dessert and stand up paddle boarding on the peaceful and calm water."

"We just returned from our second amazing visit to Casa Duna! We had been looking forward to it since last year and our stay again exceeded our dreamy expectations. The house is perfectly situated and appointed, and the weather, views, and accommodations left nothing to be desired."
