Rachel & Jay’s guidebook
Sightseeing
We like Cerritos because it is so family friendly; easy wading for the little ones, beginner and advanced surf breaks, and worry-free sunbathing. There are board rentals everywhere. Locals and tourists love interacting and everyone is very friendly. Sunset with a beer is a must.

Todos Santos is a gorgeous little artists' community with a significant ex-pat population. It's also Pueblo Magico, a federal designation that funnels funds toward the community to preserve its unique character, like the brick streets, and unique architecture. A unique blend of stores with artisanal products for sale, surfer influences, the local fishing and agricultural vibes, and urbane and sophisticated locals makes it a must visit.

Food scene
Best coffee we've ever had!? And free wifi, bands and a local market on the weekends.

Great food! The service perhaps is a little impersonal but it's hard to beat for gourmet food a 5-minute walk from the casita. There's also a play area for the kids out front.

Stumbled on this one day while walking around looking for furniture. The chefs are obviously well trained and the staff is very friendly. Soo affordable. Lunch or Dinner!

Surf Shops
I like they're inventory of hand-crafted Olea surfboards. They're daily rental prices are a little steep, but the staff is friendly.

I think I like these guys the best. Depends on who is working; sometimes you get the too cool vibe, usually quite nice. Everything is marked up pretty heavily, but that's par for the lower Baja.

Probably the most style oriented shop with a heavy skate influence. Lots of branded t-shorts and hoodies to pick from for friends and family back home.

Groceries
If you plan on cooking and eating at home, use only the best, locally grown and organic produce from the nearby cooperatives. A moderate range of produce to chose from, fresh baked breads and pastries. Also, don't miss the strawberry yogurt parfait. Why does it taste so good? Sugar!

Real Estate Broker
We purchased our property through Ricky and Ricardo (ha). We count Ricky Kessler as a close friend and an honest broker who will tirelessly educate you on the nuances of Mexican real estate law.

Spa
Well, we did Christmas dinner here one year, but the real appeal is a day of exclusive pool relaxation and massage. Great lunches. Dinner was so-so.
