About this property

Rancho Danza Del Sol - the whole ranch - a 25-acre mango farm

Insane working Mango Ranch with 4 beautiful houses, each sharing all the plantation amenities: walking paths, serenity, grass tennis court, swimming pool, etc. We have an open shared and respected vibe and our guests love it.

WIFI. Yes, we have blazing good high speed streaming WiFi!!!. Zoom calls work fantastic. We even built the sweetest outdoor lounge seating area right by the tennis court, shared and respected by all. It’s like the best Starbucks lounge you ever saw. So pretty and quiet.

People staying on a mango ranch have a good vibe to begin with and share in the amazing serenity. Everyone feels like they are part of something special. The ranch is NEVER about the money. It's about people who want to experience something so unique and fun. Why rent a house, when you can rent a house in a mango ranch! We always work with people's budgets. I didn't build the ranch to be about the money. It's a retreat of just incredible good vibes and energy. Kids love it because it's literally like Narnia! There’s this zen feeling as you walk barefoot on all the leaves under all the trees. We used to bring 20-30 kids there every weekend for 15 years and the kids were in heaven for the weekend playing, exploring, sitting by the fire pits at night talking under the baja stars and moon, swimming every day, tennis, soccer and basketball in the day, eating amazing good food at the Esquina Restaurant, Logan Logan, Pacifica Fish Tacos (all 300m). So much good food right around us!! The best.

To the beach is down to our gates and make a left down this gorgeous little path and over the dune. We are located in the perfect, most fertile growing zone of Todos Santos, 700 meters from the Hotel California and church.

This most beautiful, gated, private rancho property in Todos Santos starts with a 600 yard driveway of palm trees. Guest villas are separated by about 50 yards of manicured mango groves. Each guest house decorated with natural four post beds made locally, kitchens, beautiful bathrooms

Designed originally as a lifestyle retreat ranch and yoga retreat, this most unique property is an experience in nature and serene quality. Wake up surrounded by 25 acres of operational mango farm. Deysi lives on the property and our other friendly ranch hands are there every day to help you and you can experience a working mango farm. the ranch hands wave as they plow by mule and keep the rancho immaculate and manicured. There are healthy trees everywhere giving you so much oxygen as you follow our paths among the mango trees. The rescue dogs greet you every day and walk with you telling you their stories - with their tails wagging for any exploring you want to do. Tennis, swimming pool and walk to town. The awesome 6,000 foot Sierra Laguna mountain range to the east with sunset and beach to the west..

exhale. you are in paradise.

IMPORTANT. WE CAN RENT EACH OF THE CASITAS SEPARATELY. EACH HAS THEIR OWN LISTING. NO WORRIES. I PUT THEIR OWN LISTING NAMES BELOW. JUST REACH OUT TO ME WITH A MESSAGE AND TELL ME ABOUT YOUR GROUP SIZE AND WHAT YOU ARE CELEBRATING. TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICS AND EITHER CHOOSE THE WHOLE RANCH OR JUST STAY IN ONE OF OUR HOUSES.

“Casa Grande - located on Rancho Danza del Sol”. The serene, beautiful main big house, looks like it’s been there for hundreds of years. two bedroom, two bath and we have extra really nice air mattress that we actually make into a comfy bed. Casa Grande is where the pool is and tennis court.

“Casa Abuelos - located on Rancho Danza del Sol”. Two bedroom, two bath w/ extra beds with a big sweet veranda overlooking lychee trees. Very private and guests love it. Has full kitchen and is really serene. (See pics).

“Casa Caballos - located on Rancho Danza del Sol”. Super sweet one bedroom (king, four post) with one of the sweetest outdoor kitchens. Very private and should be called the Ernest Hemingway house because you’d expect him to be sitting there working in a typewriter writing. The mango trees are all around you and a small canal runs by your house. This casa is located below a big mango tree.

“Casa Arbol - on Rancho Danza del Sol”. The tree house. Amaaazing. Should be in better homes and Gardens. Three single beds, full kitchen and bathroom and you are up safe and secure in a really big mango tree which is about the size of an oak tree. It took 2 years to build

The ranch is like Narnia. It’s the nicest property inn the whole area. It has a zen feel and the tranquility is so amazing. Every morning guests are greeted by thousands of doves and the rescue dogs walk you around and tell you their stories. You’ll love them and their personalities. Guests pretty much use casa grande as the main gathering point and there are sitting areas there by the tennis court and pool. There are amazing fire pits and in the evening we light those for get togethers every night. We provide lots of serapes Mexican blankets and each chair and bench has pillows and blankets. It’s so amazing as the stars are out. Like i said it’s narnia.

Food is plentiful in Todos Santos. Omg. There are amazing good places literally so close to us. 400 yards from the ranch is the Esquina restaurant, with their farm to table food, lattes, smoothies and raisin oatmeal cookies and tortilla soup. It’s a local hang out with Internet and it’s really close by. Right next-door to that is an authentic farmer fruit and vegetable shack with all the fresh you could ever want. Logan Logan is super close with the best grilled tuna burger and poke bowl ever. Next door to then is Pacifica Fish Tacos - the best. The Hotel California is a great place to have dinner and it’s only 700 yards to the center of town where the church square is. There are also amazing taco stands which we highly recommend. Right in the town church square. So good. .

Big yoga center called Four Winds down the street. Really amazing local hangout about 300 yards. Breakfast here every day.
.
In the Town Square where the church is, which is about 900 yards from the ranch, there are now many boutique shop and very bohemian vibe. There’s lots of little cafés and restaurants that are really really great and cute.

Every morning when you wake up, you walk outside your house to the sound of 1000 doves and birds chirping and talking to each other. At night there are stars everywhere as you sit around the fire pit and have great conversations. The rescue dogs come over and greet you and walk you around and tell you their stories . There is music and relaxing and maybe the best part of the ranch is the incredible camaraderie that we watch happening to your group as everyone just comes together like you’ve never experienced. Promise. It’s a vibe of serenity.

Cerritos beach, which was voted Mexico’s number one surf and boogie board beach is only 12 minutes away. All of our guests love getting up and having some food and hanging out and then going to the beach around nine or 10 AM and then enjoying that safe fun beach. Then coming back and being back in the warmth and serenity of the ranch. Cerritos has no food so it’s a perfect plan.

Saludos dirk if you want to write me a WhatsApp text so I can send you more pictures, please do at +52, then 624, then 355, then 3733.

An Incredible Experience
The pictures are incredible, but once you visit you will find so much more. Rancho Danza Del Sol was a wonderful retreat during our group's 3,000 mile road trip through Baja. Our group used each casita, and found them to be beautifully decorated and comfortable. The property is right at the beach and close to town, but also feels like a different very remote if you just want to stay in and wonder the property. The four-legged friends wondering around are an added bonus. Dirk, Deysi and Ruben are very responsive and do everything necessary to make the stay really special. We cannot say enough great things. Several members of our group plan to bring their extended families back. Thank you for making our stay so memorable.

Stay away
This is not as described.The owner is quite responsive at telling you what you want to hear. One of the children in our group was bitten by the owners dog. The dogs had the run of the property and were not bad animals but occupied all spaces. Furnishings were marginal, Scorpions and mice were throughout , it is not a short walk to the beach and there is no ocean view. The caretakers were not responsive and the places were not clean.

A Break From The Ordinary
Summing this up for all the big groups out there. We were a group of 22 shoe-horning ourselves in a place that sleeps 14 comfortably. Communication: Never had a more responsive or helpful host than Dirk. Knowledgeable, helpful and very quick to respond. He genuinely wants you to have an amazing time and return. Value For Money: This is not a five star hotel - nor is it priced or positioned as such. It's clean, homey, has lots of charm and for the $$ being charged, I think it offers tremendous value. It's not the Four Seasons and not priced that way. Water: Buyer beware on those who consider a good holiday is one where you are constantly wet. The pool is small and un-heated. Chilly dipping. And the undertow at the nearby beach makes swimming impossible. You will have to drive to a beach to jump in the ocean. Side note: Water pressure in shower is not a strength. Sports: If you are a tennis lover, the court is heaven. This was our favorite part of the ranch. The net can be taken down to play soccer also. The basketball nets could use some love but the court is nice enough. Amenities: Casa Grande has a full-size fridge, a table-top 4-coil gas burner (works just so-so), microwave, BBQ and toaster oven. No regular oven so meal prep for a big group can be challenging. Picking up all the fixings for tacos at Tacos Poblanos in town is a great option. $100 fed all of us with leftovers! There is seating for 8 people inside and another 8 on two outdoor tables. Works well. We stretched the capacity to the absolute limit, so take with a grain of salt - but there were not exactly a lot of extra blankets to keep us warm at night (it can get cold) so towels and hoodies were at a premium. Treehouse: Very/cool unique set-up but def more rustic than the other 3 residences. Dogs: For a dog-loving family like ours, the dogs were a big plus. Know that you are staying at THEIR house - Casa Grande - they are around constantly and lovely. But if you are not into dogs or the trade-off that comes with barking at 3am on occasion this is probably not the best place for you. Please give Lydia a hug for me. Other/Catch-All: Do supermarket shopping in Cabo if possible after you land. There are no big supermarkets in Todo Santos. That said, Pino Market nearby is ample. Also La Esquina, food and coffee are amazing and a 10-15 minute walk away. Still reading? All in all, we had a great trip despite no TV and no wifi. Family downtime, scrabble and tennis were heavenly.

Out of the world!!
This place is paradise. Every aspect was incredible. Dirk is a delight and Ruben is second to none. The houses are comfortable and clean with everything you could need and the place is within walking distance to the beach, markets and much more. Strolling along the palm lined lanes on the ranch,watching whales on the beach in the morning and enjoying my friends at the great outdoor shared space are among my favorite things about this visit. I highly recommend! Oh,oh and the dogs!!!! I miss the pups!

Rancho Danza Del Sol
Best week ever! Evening fires, daytime tennis, and relaxation by the pool! Perfect Baja Getaway for our group of 16! The kids gained some independence whilst exploring the massive property. The dogs were ever present watching over us all! Unfortunately Mother Nature didn’t give us the surf waves we were seeking but all else was magical!

About the host

Hosted by Dirk

Host profile image
Raised in Brasil, Peru, Scotland, Phillipines and the US. Played pro tennis four years and developed a rehab sports medicine company which was sold. Todos Santos simply has the best and healthiest weather in the world! The rancho is set up like Narnia. Its an escape into nature and peace. Designed as a lifestyle retreat and professional sports team building retreat, the rancho expresses nothing but good harmony. From the humane society dogs, to the ranch hands, to the thousands of trees, to the brick casitas (which we put mud inside the concrete so that they would be more zen and peaceful and calming). is an experience in learning what Todos Santos is all about.... a rural setting with modern amenities.

Why they chose this property

Todos Santos has more centenarians (over 100 years) per capita than anywhere in North America. i found that fact unique and interesting 18 years ago and realized that the rural lifestyle, the large families that grew up together in this small town, the predominant church in the main square, the absolutely perfect, dry weather all year - all lent themselves to people living long and well here. I began buying land from local farmers 15 years ago and aggregated it into one rancho. 'Sundance' as we call it.

Close to the main square, yet still in the rural part of Todos Santos. And yet right on the beach! Peaceful, quiet, with a long 400 yard driveway of Royal Palms and Coco Palms (yes, you can have fresh coconut juice!). You see, Todos Santos is unique. There is a lot of water. The rancho is located about 15 meters above the lowest part, the bajio, where a river literally runs underground. But that zone is cold in the morning as the mountain air flows off the Sierra Laguna range to the east. Too much water is also difficult to control. This rancho is just at the perfect location.

Its so quiet and there are hundreds of doves that live on the property in all the mango trees. Mornings are full of dove cooing. In spring, like April, the mango trees are flowering and our 4 bee boxes provide hundreds of bees for every tree. You can walk right up to a tree and the honey bees are so busy they can't even care about you.

What makes this property unique

The Rancho is about open air, space and peaceful nature. You can't help it. You're surrounded by twenty five acres of heavenly mango trees. Your guest villa is beautifully appointed with locally made furniture including the four post beds. The Rancho managers, Deysi and Ruben, are there to help you with anything. They are the two nicest most helpful people you will ever meet. You are close to town, yet you are totally in a mango ranch designed as a Yoga and Lifestyle Retreat. There is a grass tennis court, swimming pool, corrals, horses and peaceful walking/hiking. You can drive to Cerritos Beach for surfing in 10 minutes or Pastora in 5 minutes down a dirt road. The restaurants in Todos Santos honestly include the best in all of the Baja! Esquina, Hotel California and Santa Fe Cafe are insanely good.

Enjoy life the way it was meant to be. Wake up to the smell of coffee with the ranch hands. Smell the air from the mango trees. Listen to the doves calling all morning. Walk to town, go surfing, ride mountain bikes. You are in heaven.
