Casa Kootenay Waterfront BnB — Hotel in Baja California Sur

Pictures simply don’t do this wonderful place justice. From the secret garden walkway when you enter to the absolute magnificent views from the rooftop lounge area — Casa Kootenay is exactly what everyone needs!

Leeanne is a fabulous host and greets you upon arrival with all the info needed to make your stay wonderful. The breakfast dining area is truly remarkable with all of the beautiful artwork from around the world. Plus the brekkie hot plates are delish and always paired with a fresh fruit plate and sweet treat. Not to mention, there is truly nothing Leeanne has missed — the woman has thought of everything to make your stay so comfortable.

The beach is immaculate and usually empty which is such a nice treat! I saw dolphins EVERYday for sunrise and sunset. I was even able to use one of the kayaks to get a bit closer and saw a small sea lion pop her head up a few times. The best spot for sunrise and sunset is on the rooftop. I even saw a rainbow my first sunrise there. Truly a magical place with lots of friendly wildlife. From the dolphins to the hummingbirds — you’ll feel like you’re in Nature Narnia :) There are bikes to use but walking to the Malecon takes no time. What great area to grab some food and wander around a bit.

The room I stayed in was bigger than my apartment. Immaculate, very comfortable (great pillows!), the AC was heaven when the humidity was too much, there is nothing missing in those rooms either — mini fridge with cold water, Robes, beach towels — even Netflix for those who dare to watch tv on holiday ;) and the sweet pool is a great way to cool off when relaxing in the sun too!

Unfortunately I wound up with Covid (first timer) and Leeanne was beyond kind and accommodating. She made me feel welcome and comfortable! Leeanne was so kind and stuck to protocol but brought me plates of food with nice notes everyday while I quarantined. She really went out of her way to make sure I was safe and comfortable and also to make sure the B&B was sanitized for guests. Leeanne truly goes above and beyond for her guests. You leave wanting to stay longer — so much so that when I felt better I extended my stay a few days to enjoy all that Casa Kootenay and La Paz has to offer.

I was so happy to see the city was clean and the beaches were kept spotless considering the foot traffic. I also felt very safe in La Paz. Like any city — be heads up but as a solo female I felt safe.

My only issue is that I wish I could have brought her sweet Casa Kitten Lizzy home with me — she and Leanne’s new rescue pup truly melted my heart.

Leeanne is such a fabulous host! I can’t wait to come...

My wife and I are avid travelers and we seek out accommodations that are intimate and generally away from the more highly touristy areas.|We just completed our first trip to wonderful Baja and La Paz. A big part of what made this trip so enjoyable was the attention and expertise we got from Leeanne and the outstanding comfort of Casa Kootenay. This is Leanne’s home and passion project and it shows in any number of ways.|I start my research with 4.8 traveler rated housing and above. Casa Kootenay popped to the front of the line. My initial inquires with Leeanne were met with a timely, informative response. As Casa K only has four rooms, we built out trip around availability. Reading other traveler reviews it was apparent that Casa Kootenay was a special experience. The daily abundant breakfasts lovingly, creatively prepared by Alma, Cecilia’s helpfulness and Leanne’s expertise make Casa Kootenay a five stay for a three star price.|Whether it’s using the free kayaks or SUPS to play with the dolphins, or the free provided bikes to ride the dedicated bike paths fifteen minutes to the Malecon, or simply lounging on the upstairs deck to gaze out over Leeanne’s beach as far as your eyes can see (each sunset more magnificient than the last), Casa Kootenay was the gift that kept on giving. This was really one of the most magnificent stays we’ve had and it made our first trip to La Paz (definitely not our last) one we’ll never forget.|Leeanne is expert at providing suggestions on how to spend your days. We visited beaches based on her suggestions that we might not have found on our own. From open markets, to the Malecon, Carnivale to swimming with whales, every day in La Paz and at Casa Kootenay was varied, rich and full. |We had eight nights at Casa Kootenay and frankly, we were hoping the snow back home might have kept us there longer.|Casa Kootenay, Leeanne, her staff, Sauza and Rain helped to give us the Baja vacation of our dreams. We’re already imagining our next trip.|Lastly, ask Leeanne about Silvia Pech Duarte at SP Servicios Profesionales for extraordinary guide services. These two women gifted us their love of La Paz and in the process made a...
