About this property

A Fishermen's Dream!

Our home is a 4 bedroom 3 bath. It has three levels, the main level has two master suites and sleeps 5. The bottom level has two bedrooms and sleeps 4.
Although our home is not right on the beach it is perhaps the only rental property in La Ribera where you are walking distance to the beach as well as to all the amenities offered in town. Our location in town also provides spectaclular views, not only of the beach, but also the surrounding desert and mountains. The best of all that La Ribera has to offer!
The main living area separates the two master suites and has a wall of windows that open completely to the deck for premium outdoor/indoor access.
One master suite has the luxury of a soaking tub with a view, and each bedroom opens onto the main deck.
There is a fully equipped kitchen on the main level, and a rooftop kitchen with a premium BBQ and dining table set up for six people. There is also a lower patio with a small table and chairs available. Lounge chairs are available to place in your favorite spot.
We have a 42 in flat screen set up with Blue-ray player, Ipod ready stereos for in home entertainment. Internet is available at no charge. Phone is available for local calls only, and the area has moderate cell phone signal.
For outdoor fun there is access to a kayak, a SUP, 2 ATVs (2007 Polaris 700 and 2004 Yamaha 450 add'l charge please ask), beach chairs and toys, horse shoes, and bocce ball.
La Ribera and the surrounding East cape are a A FISHERMAN'S DREAM! La Ribera is a small Mexican town located mid way between Cabo San Lucas and La Paz on the Baja Penisula. This area is often refered to as the Eastcape. The town is the home of the up and coming Marina Cabo Riviera, and provides plenty of opportunity to catch abundant fish in the Sea of Cortez. Rent a panga from the beach or travel to nearby Los Barrilles to fish on a larger sport fishing vessel. Catch marlin, tuna, rooster fish and an abundance of other species either in shore or in the open waters of the Sea of Cortez.
We are also located close to the world famous Cabo Pulmo dive location. This is a protected dive site offering you plenty of snorkelling or diving options. Our area is also know for kite boarding and sailboarding.
Beaches are plentiful if your idea is to relax in the sun, walk, look for shells and explore.
There are plenty of day trips as well if you want to get out and about a bit. Los Barrilles is a bigger town and has shopping, dining, golfing and spa opportunities. Or for even more excitement travel to Cabo San Lucas, La Paz or Todos Santos for an extended day trip.
Although this may seem like a sleepy Mexican town you will find plenty to do, or best of all be able to tune out and do nothing at all, just relax!

Relaxing stay in La Ribera
Plenty of furnished space indoors and out. We managed without vehicle rental for the month, happy to explore on foot, a lot of the time on sandy streets. Sourced our groceries, meat, fish, fruit and veg locally and cooked 'at home' most of the time. A few good restaurants and taco bars 10-20 minutes walk away, street lights at night just about adequate in the dark. The 'Blue Flag' designation beach is an easy walk down the hill, (passing a delightful bakery), some days swimming possible, others, the red flag was flying. Quite a bit of construction happening as a new resort area and marina are being developed north along the beach. Communication with the owners was very easy and the caretaker Ulises met us on arrival to show us around, he also connected us with a taxi service based in Los Barriles which we used for trips further afield and also back to the airport. It was useful as they were familiar with the location of the house (known as Casa Pifer to them). All in all a wonderful month of relaxation in a friendly, small Mexican town that is worlds away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist area further south.

La Ribera House Stay
House was beautiful, well appointed and had lovely views of the Sea of Cortez. Beach was about 1/3-1/2 mile walk, but it is immaculate w Palapas and part time Lifeguard.

Fisherman Getaway
This was a perfect spot for our annual fishing trip, 4 guys fit comfortably. Kitchen was great and view from the roof top is amazing. No major issues with getting access to the property or during the stay. Beds are comfy and clean. Definitely looking forward to staying here again for our next adventure.

Didn't want to leave this wonderful place!!!
My 11 year old daughter and I had a month long stay here and both wish we never had to leave! What a perfect home especially if you enjoy a beautiful yard full of solitude. The home had everything and more we needed, the views were something to get lost in. I spent many hours in the rocking chair on the patio admiring the sea or playing bocci in the yard with my daughter. La Ribera was quaint, friendly people and didn't have to leave once to find anything. La Ribera is small but you can easily find anything you might need. Alot of authenticity too. The hosts were wonderful, responsive and very accommodating. The home was very clean and comfortable. I can't wait to go back again and again. One of our favorite vacay homes by far!!!

Beautiful beach views while relaxing on the balcony
Our family loved the spaciousness of the home, the beach to themselves, and evenings on the rooftop deck listening to music with a drink. Connie and Jerry were communicative and the caretaker was super helpful in getting us hooked up with rides to Cabo. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Connie Pifer

Host profile image
We are the Pifers - Jerry, Connie, Josef and Mari. We live and work in Oregon where we owned small grocery stores and a pizza parlor called CG Market and Reel Sportsmen Pizza. Jerry is also a fishing guide and runs guide trips on our boat 'Reelly Addicted' for halibut, tuna, and salmon out of Winchester Bay, Oregon. We built our Mexico home in 2010 as a family retreat and a future retirement home. We are excited to share our little piece of Mexico with you.

Why they chose this property

We are fishing fools, and fell in love with the area because you can catch big fish with out having to go way off shore. We also love this area because it is truly Mexico we try each time we visit to immerse ourselves further into the Mexican culture. This is also such a great place for the kids, waves are calm, town is safe, and people are friendly.

What makes this property unique

The most unique benefit is that La Ribera is still a Mexican village - think Cabo thirty years ago. A great place to escape the hustle and bustle of it all.
