Casa Kootenay Waterfront BnB

My husband and I stayed 7 nights at Casa Kootenay. Absolutely loved it. Location is very quiet and the rooftop deck was great. We really enjoyed sitting there at sunset and watching all the people on the beach. The breakfasts were amazing, every day. Leeann was a wonderful hostess, friendly and helpful but not intrusive. We would definitely come back. I would recommend renting a car to get to the beaches, etc. Also, lots of on street parking available.

Excellent location right on the beach. Ive come several times and Leeanne is an excellent host with lots of knowledge on the area. Safe area to visit. Great breakfast! The sunsets are out if this world!

Leeanne has created a pretty spectacular respite in La Paz. The grounds of her B&B are gorgeous with many comfortable spaces for reading, petting her dogs, watching proposals on the beach, and taking in a sunrise/sunset. Birds and plants are everywhere.||Our room was spotless and nicely appointed with plenty of shelving and a terrific bathroom. ||LeeAnn has coolers, umbrellas, and chairs available that we used almost daily for excursions to some of the prettiest beaches on the planet. ||Breakfast is family style and delicious - her home cook, Alma, cooks a hot dish daily and there is coffee, tea, juice, and yoghurt/cereal always available. ||Leeann sets clear boundaries on when she is “on duty” but eats breakfast with you in her gorgeous dining area and is knowledgeable, helpful, and full of advice and opinions about the best beaches, neighborhoods, tacos, etc. she has also led a very interesting life and is fun to talk to.||In short, we would highly recommend a stay at Casa Kootenay. We will most certainly be back.

Casa Kootenay is a very special, exceptionally friendly, well-located, immaculate beach front bed and breakfast. We spent a week here and would definitely return. Owner Leeanne has created a lovely space for travelers to relax on site with comfortable rooms, balconies, a pool, bicycles, kayaks, paddle boards, and lots of other stuff for enjoying the beach and bay. We felt well taken care of starting the day with a delicious breakfast in the clubhouse looking out on the water. Leeanne is an engaging and knowledgeable host and happy to share her expertise in tour planning and water sports and different locales to explore La Paz on and offshore. We enjoyed kayaking and swimming from the beach in front of the clubhouse, and bicycling along the Malecon. Thank you to Leeanne, chef Alana, and Celia for giving us such a nice week on our first visit to La Paz.

Wonderful place to stay. The owner, Leann, does a great job interacting with guests, making the feel included, providing great info on what to do. Breakfasts a plus: fresh baked goods, yogurt, daily hot food special, etc. |Really a pleasure to stay in well maintained and true Mexican architecture. TV reception exceptionally good for hotel and wifi was great. Quiet street. No nightclub noise but close enough to downtown to walk or ride bikes.

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 lasting impression.

Casa Kooteney was so very charming …… from the moment you entered the courtyard and were greeted by Leanne to the delicious breakfast prepared each day by Ayla to the sunsets on the roof and the glass of wine with new friendships from around the world. Our room with a small balcony overlooked the garden with a bit of a water view and was where we enjoyed coffee each morning before joining others for breakfast. The bed was excellent, the shower hot and the entire room sparkling clean (thank you Cecilia). Leanne provided great information on where to eat, things to experience, and what to do if you are stopped by the police if you happen to be driving a rental car! We travel a lot and want to feel like we are truly experiencing each place we visit, and Casa Kooteney is such a place and more.

What a wonderful place to stay and fully deserving of its great reputation. The owner, Leeanne is charming and knowledgeable with a keen eye for detail. For example: a guest was checking in with celiac disease. Leeanne's kitchen is cross-contaminated, and so she arranged for breakfasts from a gluten-free kitchen to be brought in for that guest. Alma, the cook, provides wonderful hot Mexican breakfasts. The beds are very comfortable and there are big jugs of bottled water distributed around the property. We parked on-street with no problems. Leeanne has quite a bit of equipment available to borrow and we used her bikes a few times. Not performance bikes, but they get the job done. The roof patio is glorious and a wonderful place to hang out. While it's a bit of a walk to get to the Malecon (yay bikes!), the beach in front is very walkable, and there is kind of a mangrove park an easy walk away. This is in a residential neighborhood- quiet and safe. Staying with Leeanne, you see the La Paz she loves- with the wonderful people, the terrific food and the incredible bucket list of outdoor adventures available. Stay here. You won't regret it.
