Both Russ and I, and his entire family are just blown away by the fantastic trip we had to Casa La Laguna. We want to thank you for all of your attention to detail that made the trip completely perfect in every way. First of all, the house itself is spectacular…even better than the pictures on your website! We were welcomed with guacamole and margaritas which really hit the spot, and we enjoyed the amazing view complete with breaching whales and jumping bat rays. Angel and Tina were so kind and attentive, and took care of us every step of the way. We were continuously surprised by every meal, and couldn’t believe how much delicious food we received each day. Betty’s 80th birthday was perfect…the flowers on the dining room table were gorgeous and Tina came right over to her and hugged her and sang “Happy Birthday” which was so precious.
There really is nowhere in the world where we feel we could have had a more relaxing, beautiful and luxurious trip than the time we spent at Casa La Laguna. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts…it is a vacation that we will never forget!

WOW is the best word to describe our time at Casa La Laguna. The rooms were great. The grounds were awesome. And the food ...Angel is one heck of a chef. I could not get enough of his excellent preparations. Next time I will just tell him not to ask what we want... just surprise us!
The location of your house is one of the prettiest beaches in all of the Los Cabos area. Spectacular is a better word. We made good use of the Bocce on the beach front. Whales, rays, schools of fish, and beautiful vistas.
Thank you again for allowing us into your home. I’m telling several friends who want to rent the villa about the experience. “Over the top” is my favorite description.
We really look forward to visiting Casa La Laguna again. I did not tell Angel goodbye; it was more like “see you soon”!

We celebrated our dear friend Pablo’s 40th birthday here. No words to express the beauty of the location, and your magnificent home. Staff-fabulous! Massages-Incredible! Food-Magnificent! Thank you for sharing.

I am attaching a picture of the fine people you have working for you, with part of our group, at your most beautiful home in Cabo. Angel, Tina, Jesus, and Rubi made our stay at your beautiful home that much more spectacular! So please let them know how much we appreciated them and their kindness. We felt as though they were part of our family while here. Please pass on these other pictures also, and let them know how much we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was one of the best vacations we have ALL ever been on and most of it was because of your fine staff (not taking anything from your gorgeous home). I know I am speaking for all of us when I say that I hope we can come back soon!

Wow, wow, wow!!! What can we say? This is the most amazing house-the website photos were beautiful, but this home surpasses them by far! We are enjoying every minute of it. We were overwhelmed when we first walked in. The view, the openness, the architecture, the lovely furnishings, the pool, the location-all spectacular! We had a luscious dinner prepared tonight-the best chicken enchiladas, salsa, and guacamole bar none! Right now we’re in the Media Room watching a movie, listening to the sound of the crashing waves in the background…Paradise! We feel completely spoiled by being the ones blessed to have the beautiful master bedroom-just spectacular! Over the top! The whole experience has been perfect. Thank you so much for making this possible for our family-it’s more than we ever dreamed. You did a superb job on the design of this fantastic home and we are thrilled to be here!

This was the ULTIMATE PARADISE…a slice of heaven!!! My friends and I did not want to leave! This was by far the most beautiful vacation home I have ever stayed in. I felt like I was a princess from the moment I arrived. Every night while sleeping you could leave your bedroom door open and hear the waves crash…while eating breakfast on the terrace you could hear the sound of bat rays jumping up as well as see them and whales swim by. It was truly amazing!
Words cannot describe it and pictures do not serve justice. The service was EXCELLENT!! Tina gave amazing hot stone massages, Eduardo was a fantastic server (he said that he had never seen anyone go through as many tequila bottles as we did). Angel prepared the most amazing and delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners, and it was so nice to have meals together outside with the beautiful views.
Sitting around the fire at night was so peaceful and spending time in the jacuzzi was so relaxing. The house was so clean and decorated so gorgeous…the architecture was just unbelievable! While we were there, the weather was perfect…not a cloud in the sky. The sunrises and sunsets were breathtaking. I want to thank you for sharing your home with us and for an unforgettable vacation. I will be spoiled forever because of this

From before our arrival, the entire experience was beyond our wildest dreams. We have traveled around the world, and we recognize how much work is involved in making our stay feel so effortless. From our favorite meals, to the seamless access to my office when needed, and the perfect weather – it seems that nothing is beyond your control. There are too many lasting memories to pick a favorite: The entry archway framing our first view of the villa interior, the infinity pool reaching to the surf and, of course, the margaritas at sunset in the Jacuzzi right above the beach. But more important than any of these will be the comfortable elegance that we felt throughout our stay at Casa La Laguna. It was obvious to us that every detail was designed for our pleasure, and it was a delight to discover daily examples of this through the architecture, furnishings, and especially the people we fell in love with.
We are already planning our next trip in the fall, and can’t wait to bring more of our friends to meet the news members of our “family”.

Thank you so much for our amazing “Cabo” getaway. You certainly took fantastic care of all of us. Every detail was perfect from your gorgeous villa, lovely beach location, the exceptional staff, delicious meals, abundant activities, and wonderful friends. I could go on and on about the beautiful decor, all the dining locations, the incredible view, and my extremely spacious and comfortable bedroom (I felt like a queen). Our vacation had the right combination of relaxation, and activities. Seeing and hearing the waves was so peaceful and therapeutic while golf, walks, the gym and swimming were perfect athletic outlets. Your attention to every detail made our getaway truly wonderful.
The flight was so easy and being in a foreign country such a fun adventure. I can’t thank you enough for your hospitality and generosity in hosting this memorable “Chicas Retreat.”

We rented Casa La Laguna for one night for our wedding. The property is breathtaking and served as the perfect venue for our BIG DAY! After touring eight other properties with no luck, we booked Casa La Laguna sight unseen, per the recommendation of our wedding coordinator. The second we saw it, we knew we had made the perfect choice! The villa is very luxurious and looked absolutely stunning with our wedding decor.
From the beginning, Mr. Schneider made the rental process seamless, which is important amongst all the chaos that comes with planning a wedding.
We spent our wedding night at the villa and awoke to a delightful brunch prepared exactly as requested by a very generous staff that made sure we had everything we needed. We were surprised to see the villa had been cleaned so quickly, there was no trace a wedding had taken place there the night before. It is evident the staff takes pride in maintaining the property.
We hope to take an annual trip to Los Cabos for our anniversary and stay at Casa La Laguna with family and friends.

This was our second visit to your marvelous Villa. Just like our January visit last year the weather, beach, meals, and accommodations were absolutely perfect.
What particularly struck me this visit was the attention to detail. Angel and Tina were extraordinarily gracious. Their unobtrusive presence and timing for service let us know that all of our vacation needs would be met, and yet our private time would be respected, and opportunities to be silly with our dear friends would be uninhibited.
This year Jackie relished the comfortable beds, fine linens, sumptuous pillows, spectacular views, and soothing sounds of the Sea of Cortez from our bedroom.
The exercise room and entertainment room were so well equipped that I had little desire to explore beyond the confines of the "touch of paradise" that you created.
After a morning swim in the sea, followed by laps in the gentle soft-water pool, the classic Mexican breakfast with huevos rancheros, fresh fruit, and rich cappuccino could not have tasted better.
Thanks again for an unforgettable week in your villa.

I am taking the time to write and thank you for all of your help arranging our stay at Casa La Laguna. I also want to add that the service and attention to detail by Angel and his staff was second to none. I have been trying to think of some very clever things to write, but there are too many to memorialize. Let me just say a few.
Angel was so incredibly helpful and attentive. His food? Amazing! His desire to make the trip memorable? Unsurpassed! The stay exceeded any and all of our expectations and we definitely plan on staying at Casa La Laguna again, hopefully this summer, but only if Angel is working!!! Please share this with the homeowner as he should know that Angel and staff are the best and make it possible to have a real vacation.

Our stay at Casa La Laguna was a great experience from beginning to end. It absolutely exceeded our expectations in every category. It was an awesome experience, with very special memories for me and my family. I will absolutely recommend Casa La Laguna to business associates, friends, and family. Thanks again for making our stay so special!

My family and I had the absolute best experience at Casa La Laguna! The views and decor were breathtaking. The staff on hand took care of every need we had, and we ate some of the best meals we have ever had from Chef Angel. This vacation was exactly what we had ordered.... stunning ambiance, amazing food & drinks, and we didn't have even one worry. Our entire stay was carefree and left us only times for laughing and smiling. The best vacation all of us have ever been on! This is experience really defines what a vacation should be. We are so spoiled; now not sure how we will ever vacation anywhere else again!

Our family has stayed in and experienced many beautiful resorts and homes, but Casa La Laguna by far, has been an experience we will never forget! When you combine the beauty of the sea and landscape, this spectacular villa, and add to it the graciousness of Angel, Tina, and their staff, it cannot get any better. Angel is a five star chef as well as a warm and gracious host. The meals and presentation are top chef! The staff was always accommodating and made us feel at ease. Your attention to every detail and need is unmatched at any resort. We are truly grateful for your graciousness and hospitality. Our experience was amazing from our arrival thru our departure. The surrounding beauty of the sea and pristine beach completed the back drop of the stunning architecture of your home. If there is anything that we can do for you, please let us know. Jim will be sending some photos your way in the near future. Thank you for opening up your home and making it feel like ours.

WOW! What else can I say about our visit to Casa La Laguna. I don't think words can describe what a wonderful vacation we had while staying there. As fabulous as the website is, the house is that much more fabulous in person. I also cannot say enough about Angel and Tina. They are truly the kindest people. The food was amazing! Just when we thought we had the most delicious meal ever, the next meal would prove us wrong! I have to believe that Casa La Laguna is the perfect house with the perfect setting with the perfect duo running it perfectly. I will never forget my 40th birthday. Thank you for working with us to make this trip possible and for all of your recommendations throughout the past year. I imagine we will be ready to book another week in the very near future. Thank you again.

I wanted you to know how much we LOVED your Villa. We had an absolutely fabulous time and the house was AMAZING. Even better, however, were Angel and Tina. They are truly great people. Angel was very sensitive to all of our needs, and the meals-words cannot do justice! Tina gave us some of the best massages ever, and she and Monica were priceless with the couple that brought their 4 month old. They actually had the opportunity to relax! This vacation will be remembered as one of our best ever because the Villa was awesome and the service was first-class. We would definitely like to return again.

I wanted you to know that we enjoyed your house immensely. Your caretakers, Angel and Tina, were wonderful; very helpful and skilled. I could not have celebrated my 50th birthday any better. Beautiful home and setting. The amenities-music system, TV’s, beds, in-suite baths, are all wonderful and easy to enjoy.

Thank you so much for allowing us to spend time in your beautiful, “over the top” home away from home to my children and grandchildren.
We thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Everything was so well thought out. Nothing was lacking; it exceeded our expectations. Our mouths were open upon arrival. Angel and Tina served us with joy and a humble heart. The quality of the cuisine exceeded our expectations; Angel worked so hard to please. The housekeeping was beyond what one would expect. While we were there, we said a special blessing prayer for the villa, the Angel’s and Tina’s family, and your family.
First class. Last year we spent the same amount at the Cove Atlantis in the Bahamas. Casa La Laguna was way better!

Thank you so much for sharing your awesome vacation home with us. We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful villa and the spectacular views. Tina and Angel were fantastic and took care of our every need. The food was superb and so were the massages.

My wife and I were able to get away for a long weekend with several couples. Casa La Laguna was a dream come true. After being greeted by one of the staff members at the airport we were whisked away in a freshly washed suburban to our hideway right on the water. After the drive through San Jose and a stretch of desert tundra, we drove up to the residence that was one of several large custom homes perched over the crashing waves of the Sea of Cortez.
When you arrive in the private courtyard, you walk through a traditional covered walkway to a breathtaking view of the home and the crystal blue sea. The home cascades down to the waterfront. There are private rooms for couples everywhere. There were three couples in our party but the home could accommodate 6 couples easily with each having a private suite.
The home feels so much larger due to the main house’s roll-away doors that opens the living, dinning, kitchen and sitting areas onto an infinity pool, bar, spa and palapa. Sitting in the living area watching the Final Four NCAA basketball tournament on the plasma TV perfectly located above the sliding doors was a lifetime memory.
The staff was attentive, the décor was first class. I felt fortunate someone would let us enjoy the good life in their private estate. All of our senses were spoiled. The food was what you expect from a trained staff. Authentic Mexican dishes served at a wonderful round table that sat eight, with Margaritas that kept coming and coming.
“When can we go back” beckons my wife. Working on the next trip already. Thank you Casa La Laguna. Our dreams became a reality.

I had the opportunity to visit Casa La Laguna for a girls' trip to Cabo San Lucas. This was the perfect venue for a girls' trip from the moment we arrived until we reluctantly had to leave 5 days later. When one arrives at the beautiful arched entrance, you are swept away by the classic Mexican architecture and the two level infinity pool which leads right down to the beach. The view is something out of a postcard-seamless. As we walked into the beautiful great room, the staff had margaritas and fabulous appetizers waiting for us.
The staff was on hand to provide anything we needed from gourmet meals to spa treatments, all of which were beyond our expectations. In addition to the in-villa spa, there is a complete state-of-the-art fitness center. We each had our own room that with a fantastic view of the Sea of Cortez and exquisite decor. I can't recommend Casa La Laguna enough. This venue is perfect for a family reunion (think extended family-sleeps 13), a couples trip, a corporate retreat (perfect place to reflect, collaborate and relax), or girls' trip. This retreat has everything one might want in a vacation.
I cannot wait for my next visit to Casa La Laguna. Thank you to the Schneiders for envisioning such a great retreat for fun, fellowship and relaxation.

I want to say that your staff at Casa La Laguna are the warmest and most attentive people. They would do everything with a smile which made our experience there even more enjoyable. The food was amazing with first class presentation. All of our guests raved about the massages, saying they were the best they’ve had in a long time. I had the best massage I have ever had.
I could go on and on, but suffice it to say that we would love to come back and would recommend without reservation that anyone who stays here will fall in love with this place. Thank you to the entire staff and the Schneiders.

Our family just returned home TO A COLD MICHIGAN after NEW YEARS week at your BEAUTIFUL VILLA in San Jose Del Cabo, Los Cabos, Mexico. It was a genuine "wow"!
Our one daughter and husband will soon return to NYC after two more days of diving off La Paz. Our other daughter, her three girls, and husband have returned to Seattle, Washington “as happy as clams’’.
Our two sons could not be with us this past week as they have businesses and families in Shanghai, China and Rome, Italy where they had to remain.
We have vacationed all over the world, by cruise, used 5-star hotels, BEEN ON safaris…… and lived in a roman villa for 4 years. We have also rented villas all over the Caribbean, Hawaii, Africa and Europe.
NONE ARE AS WELL MANAGED OR AS COMFORTABLE AS YOUR ‘’CASA LA LAGUNA’’. YOU CAN BE PROUD OF THE STAFF’S ATTENTION TO CLEANLINESS, THEIR POLITE DEMEANOR, AND THE FACT THAT ALL OF THE FACILITY’S MECHANICS ARE IN FINE WORKING ORDER. I FOUND ANGEL’S ACCOUNTING AND LEDGER TO BE EASILY READABLE AND ORGANIZED. HE IS A FINE CHEF AND SURELY DOES PREPARE A GREAT LUNCH AND BREAKFAST.
THE BEACH VIEWS WERE SPECTACULAR, THE SAND CLEAN AND WONDERFUL. THE POOL AND SLIDE WERE A BIG HIT TO THE KIDS. THE PALAPA WAS EXCELLENT FUN, THE DINING AND SITTING AREAS ARE VERY PLEASANT. THE BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS WERE FIRST CLASS !!
ON A SCALE OF 1-10… YOU GET A 9.7 !!!!
WE LOVED IT. ALL 9 OF US.
We loved it. All 9 of us.

The wedding was absolutely fabulous, flawless and beautiful. Best of all, everyone had such an amazing time. Casa La Laguna struck a cord with many guests that want to celebrate/visit the villa again for their own reasons and events. The layout of the villa was perfect to accommodate a wedding.
Doug, I can’t tell you enough how incredibly helpful, gracious, and talented your staff is. From the food, to the massages, to the many helping hands, to Angel making an extra provision run during the wedding reception and helping me find a first aid kit at 1:00 am… The overall experience was, for lack of a better word, SURREAL!

We thank you greatly for sharing your wonderful villa with us. It is truly a bit of paradise along the sea in the desert of Baja. Not only is your home beautiful and impeccable, but the staff you retain is a tremendous complement and asset. Angel, Tina, and everyone else were extremely accommodating, kind and generous with their time. The stay could not have been better. We would love to make this an annual celebration.
We also would like to know who did the interior design and, also, if you have contacts for any artisans that supplied furnishings, sconces, chandeliers, etc., for a project in Santa Barbara, California. It would be immensely appreciated if you could pass on any information.
Thank you again and we look forward to our next stay. Please, do not hesitate to post our appreciation of the villa and staff. Again, we look forward to our next stay. Give our best to Angel, Tina, et al.
