True Mexico Rediscovered!!! Its hard to truly put into this review just how special our stay was! So many many things we loved. First we were so burned out with Cabo the "Vegas of Mexico" and how Mexico has lost its specialness...well we found it here! The house is BEAUTIFUL.. Brand new, spotless and on a beautiful beach. The manager made all arrangements for our arrival and was there to grant our every wish. S'mores basket for the kids and a special Margarita basket of fun for the adults upon arrival. We had a chef brought in which was easy and the food was amazing. Snorkeling, horseback riding, fireworks, and THE FISHING!! Marlin, Tuna, Darado etc..all right out front! Little local restaurants and a bar were really fun. It was so nice to have a trip to Mexico that we actually came home rested and ready to return! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! ##### Mike M.

Hacienda Sonadora was beautiful! Trent was very responsive and set us up with the caretaker Luis. Luis was fantastic at his job helping us book transport, activities, excursions and food catering. He met us at the house at check in and made sure everything was good and kept in touch when we needed him. We had 12 adults and 11 kids (from teens to toddlers) and there was something for everyone! Luis helped us set up fishing, ATV tour, lunch reservations, catering with Adriana, massages, and horseback riding. All excursions showed up right outside the front door or on our beach front. With so many kids in our group, it was nice having direct access to the beach so it was easy to keep an eye on everyone. There was staff every day to either clean the pool, take out the trash, set up beach chairs, umbrellas, paddle boards and kayaks. All the hard work was done for us so all we had to do was sit back, relax and enjoy the beautiful scene. Even at the peak of summertime travel, we were the only ones on the beach. It was like having a private beachfront (with the occasional cows walking by which all the kids loved watching). There’s so much I can say to boast about this place. Everyone had an amazing time! ##### Tania W. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathie H. Jan 9, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Delayed 75th birthday party fabulous! Seventeen friends and family from 3 generations gathered in perfectly safe isolation for a week in this fantastic hacienda. There was room and varied spaces for all to gather, subsets to play board and video games, read quietly, color and play trucks, and just hang out. The open roof was a particular favorite for the 3 year old to survey the beach and water and delight in the world championship of pool cornhole his elders were playing below. People snorkeled, kayaked, tried hilariously to paddle board, but mostly swam in the gentle surf. We decided to cater the evening meals, and were glad we did. Excellent, local, fresh food was delivered nightly and many times there were enough leftovers for many breakfasts and lunches the next day. Luis, our friendly and helpful support, also arranged for a half day fishing trip for 4. They had a great time and brought home enough yellow tail tuna for sashimi and seared tuna plus mahi mahi for civiche. We all had a wonderful time, and would highly recommend this place for a gathering. We hadn't quite realized long a drive from ATMs the place was, so had to make the trek for cash for our Covid tests. Everyone takes US dollars as well as pesos, so I would recommend bringing enough cash for all your adventures and treats. ##### Kathie H.

The house was amazing - as beautiful and spacious as it looks in the pictures! The beach was great and almost totally private. Luis (the caretaker) was great - always checking in to help with whatever we needed. The local dining places were delicious and all the people we met were super friendly and helpful. We also had some delicious catered meals from Adrianas. Luis arranged for some massages at the house, which were so lovely that we actually had them come back later on in our trip. He also arranged a bonfire on the beach for our last night, and then went above and beyond by helping with roadside assistance when we got a flat tire on our way back home. We really enjoyed the kayaks AB’s paddle boards that were available at the house and really appreciated the filtered water and ice they had. We definitely hope to return soon. ##### Alyson M.

Perfect getaway for 4 families with teens, college kids, plus grown children and baby! Isolation from the normal Cabo crowds. Beautiful, clean, spacious and well furnished property adjacent to beautiful ocean. Wonderful food at LaDona (walkable for breakfasts and lunches), catering by Adrianna (even a birthday cake!), dinners at some of the restaurants in El Cardonal (just a little bit down the road), local convenience stores in town, late night hot dog and taco stands--never were we hungry! Kayaks, paddle boards, towels, beach chairs & umbrellas--all there! Great walks on the beach too. Louis arranged ATVs for us to take on an adventure to the waterfall with lunch in Los Barrilles (much easier, shorter, and faster than driving the winding road!)!! I think the next time I would arrange a shuttle to the house to drop everyone off and rent ATVs for the week to get around! Everyone had something to do! Plenty of sun and shade if needed. This property is very accommodating for a variety of groups and ages. Highly recommend! The people in town were all very friendly as well. A great dream vacation with sunrises and sunsets! Even the whales gave us quite the show as they breeched and whacked the water with their tails as they fed! Can you tell we had fun??? Can't wait to go back. ##### Tiffany S.

This house did not disappoint! It was the perfect location for our extended family trip this year. The property is spacious and we felt comfortable even with our large party sharing the house and guest house. We felt safe with the home and its location being outside of mainstream Cabo. Trent and Luis were very response to all of my questions before and during the trip. We booked the mariachi band and piñata party for the kids and it was amazing! We loved the trip so much and would happily go back to this listing in the future. The one thing I would point out that if you go in the off season like we did (January) the pool was cold since the sun didn't really have the strength to heat it. Our kids didn't seem to mind it, but if you really want to utilize the pool go when the weather is hotter. ##### Hannah O. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe W.

This is what Mexico is supposed to be like! Cabo is like cheap Vegas but thus home is on a private beach in a great little village. Old Mexico charm with everything you could possibly want! Few wonderful restaurants and local bar. The owners arranged a private chef which was super tasty. We fished, rented dune buggies and even set up a private fireworks show. Oh did I mention horse back riding on the beach! We loved everything about our trip except leaving. House is spectacular...zero complaints! ##### Mike M.

The home is equipped very nicely to accommodate a large group AND, especially, to give everyone space when needed. The beach is lovely, the pool is beautiful, and the "toys" ie paddleboards and kayaks were put to much use and so much fun! The caretaker was very attentive to our needs and requests. We LOVED the feeling of solitude and purposefully did not seek the crowds, noise, and hectic flurry of commercialized Cabo San Lucas. ##### Anna F.

Amazing property We were blown away by how nice the home was. The white sand beach on a private bay in the Sea of Cortez and the fabulous pool and house made this a perfect getaway. The caretaker went above and beyond to take care of us. We catered in Dinners every night and just enjoyed the house as a destination. The kids played on the beach all day, went fishing and the caretaker took them on a guided horseback ride one day, while the adults rented ATV's and spent the day exploring the arroyos up into the mountains and the natural waterfalls. It was a great escape and getaway from City life in the US. We will definitely be back! My only regret- we didn't stay longer. ##### Hoyt B.

Mar 9, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect vacation We had an incredible stay at Hacienda Sonadora! The property is absolutely ideal for large groups, and we really enjoyed getting to know the area. The locals are super friendly and the caretaker, Luis, made sure that all our needs were met. We got most of our groceries from Los Barriles, but the local shops are well stocked, and we enjoyed taking the kids for short walks to pick up candy at the nearby store. The small taco stand (La Dona) at the end of the driveway was excellent, and we ate there several times. We also tried La Hornilla and Las Terrazas, and they were both great. Overall, I don’t think our trip could have gone any better. This property is fabulous, and with the sliding doors fully open, you hardly notice the indoor/outdoor transition. It just feels like one giant living space. Highly recommended! ##### Gregory M. Stayed 11 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William I.

The kids enjoyed both the pool and the beach. Couldn’t have asked for a better place.

The Caretaker made our stay extra special. We had massages by the pool, went on an ATV excursion and just enjoyed sitting by the pool staring into the Ocean for hours on end. We had a chef prepare dinners and the food wags exquisite, and the little restaurant up the street was good too. We felt, and were, completely safe in the wonderful community. We are definitely coming back! Thank you for building such a wonderful home! ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wendy S. Jan 21, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Private Paradise! What a delight! This property is gorgeous, private, safe, and truly perfect for our large group of 23! We celebrated our parents 50th anniversary with 10 adults and 13 youth/children at Hacienda Sonodora and the atmosphere here was key for helping us unplug and create numerous memories. The children (ages 5-16) played endlessly in the sand, ocean, and pool. When they were tired out or cold, they played hours of games up on the sun deck of the roof or made several trips to one of many small tiendas. Time seemed to stand still! The local families around Hacienda Sonodora were gracious, kind and helpful and the property manager, Luis, was well connected and resourceful. Long walks on the beach, horseback riding, and fishing were favorites among our group. Luis connected us with Betto and his family at Cuadra San Alberto Horse Rides. Betto went out of his way to accommodate our large group and he even made a special trip back the next day. The fishing expeditions were also great for young and old and we happily welcomed the fresh fish to our table for the next several meals. With a group this size, most meals were cooked right on property and the kitchen is excellent! Beautiful modern appliances make cooking a dream. When we needed a break from cooking, Luis connected us with Adriana who provided us with a wonderful, authentic Mexican breakfast and dinner. The drive north is straight forward, but an adventure in and of itself. Our van full of boys thought this was the most fun ride they’d ever taken. Over the hills and through the mountains to El Cardonel we go! The location is remote, so once there, we really had no desire to go elsewhere. Everything we needed was right there on property. If we had any needs or concerns, the property owner, Trent, responded immediately and graciously and the property manager, Luis, checked in daily. I’m not sure my parent’s will make it another 50 years, but I am already looking for another good excuse to come back with our family. Trent and family, thanks for an amazing, one of a kind, dream vacation! ##### Wendy S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori M. Jan 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beyond our expectations We had an amazing experience at Hacienda Sonadora. We loved the quiet beach and more remote location of the house, which is removed from the busy tourist attractions. The owner and property manager were incredibly informative and attentive and set us up to know exactly what to expect. We arranged a company trip for 16 people and each person Was set up for comfort and privacy. We were especially impressed by the well appointed kitchen (we cooked the majority of our meals) and the attention to detail with beach towels and cozy blankets. At one point during our visit a member of our group fell ill and needed a doctor.Luis, the house manager found a wonderful doctor who was able to provide relief. This attention went well beyond what we could have hoped for. We are checking our calendar now to see when we can return for another visit. ##### Lori M. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas](https://www.expedia.ca/East-Cape-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Los-Cabos-At-Costa-Palmas.h33899743.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Los Cabos Suites Golf Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Dreams-Los-Cabos-Suites-Golf-Resort-Spa.h117968.Hotel-Information) > > [Montage Los Cabos](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Montage-Los-Cabos.h21565893.Hotel-Information) > > [Garza Blanca Resort & Spa Los Cabos](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Garza-Blanca-Resort-Spa-Los-Cabos.h24101981.Hotel-Information) > > [Nobu Hotel Los Cabos](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas-Hotels-Nobu-Hotel-Los-Cabos.h33617448.Hotel-Information) > > [Hacienda Encantada Resort & Residences](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Hacienda-Encantada-Resort-Residences.h1709387.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Los Cabos Resort Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-The-Westin-Los-Cabos-Resort-Villas-Spa.h15786.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Los Cabos Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Los-Cabos-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11918484.Hotel-Information) > > [Hacienda del Mar Los Cabos, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Hacienda-Del-Mar-Los-Cabos-Resort.h65860.Hotel-Information) > > [Las Ventanas al Paraiso, A Rosewood Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Las-Ventanas-Al-Paraiso.h41895.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Velas Los Cabos - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Grand-Velas-Los-Cabos-All-Inclusive.h15407425.Hotel-Information) > > [Zoetry Casa del Mar Los Cabos - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Casa-Del-Mar-Boutique-Resort-Spa.h11803507.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos - Adults Only - All-Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Le-Blanc-Spa-Resort-Los-Cabos-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h18584139.Hotel-Information) > > [El Encanto All Inclusive Resort at Hacienda Encantada](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-El-Encanto-All-Inclusive-Resort-At-Hacienda-Encantada.h21765594.Hotel-Information) > > [Solaz, A Luxury Collection Resort, Los Cabos a Marriott Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Solaz.h21136644.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Fiesta Americana Los Cabos All Inclusive Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Grand-Fiesta-Americana-Los-Cabos-All-Inclusive-Golf-Spa.h580752.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Solmar at Rancho San Lucas](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Grand-Solmar-At-Rancho-San-Lucas.h27015880.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Los Cabos](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Hilton-Los-Cabos-Beach-Golf-Resort.h794531.Hotel-Information) > > [Chileno Bay Resort & Residences, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Chileno-Bay-Resort-Residences.h16118058.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa del Palmar at the Islands of Loreto](https://www.expedia.ca/Loreto-Hotels-Villa-Del-Palmar-At-The-Islands-Of-Loreto.h4129247.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes Resort, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas-Hotels-Grand-Solmar-Pacific-Dunes-Resort.h18108018.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradisus Los Cabos - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Paradisus-Los-Cabos-All-Inclusive.h24807.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel El Ganzo - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Hotel-El-Ganzo.h5463165.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cape, A Thompson Hotel, by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-The-Cape.h10559865.Hotel-Information) > > [Esperanza, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Esperanza.h874700.Hotel-Information) > > [Zadún, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, Los Cabos](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Zadun.h35813119.Hotel-Information) > > [Hard Rock Hotel Los Cabos All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Hard-Rock-Hotel-Los-Cabos-All-Inclusive.h34183472.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa La Valencia Beach Resort & Spa Los Cabos](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Del-Cabo-Hotels-Villa-La-Valencia-Beach-Resort-Los-Cabos.h71633289.Hotel-Information) > > [Secrets Puerto Los Cabos - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Cabos-Hotels-Secrets-Puerto-Los-Cabos-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h6231689.Hotel-Information) > > [Marquis Los Cabos, An All Inclusive, Adults Only & No Timeshare Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Del-Cabo-Hotels-Marquis-Los-Cabos.h9769778.Hotel-Information)
