Casa Oasis
About the Home
We call it Oasis for good reason: from lovely gardens and a gleaming pool outdoors to modern, breezy furnishings and a bold yet exquisite aesthetic indoors, this home is truly a jewel in the desert. Welcoming, private spaces inspire a deep sense of calm, while the common areas invite everyone to mingle and lounge. Removed from the street by the length of a spacious, 3-car garage, the house sports a big patio surrounded by (and connected with) the living room, dining room, and master bedroom. The patio sports a pool, bbq grill, an outdoor dining room, and a hammock and rocking chairs. There is also a sun area on a raised dais, that overlooks the patio area. Stocked with plush cushions, it is an excellent place to sunbathe sipping a cool drink or take an afternoon siesta. The neighborhood overall is very quiet. The seaside promenade is about a minute’s walk from the house. Only a block away is our favorite breakfast place, María California. Within the same radius are two great restaurants: La Casita, an excellent place with tasty salads and entrees and a nice patio bar, and Dulce Romero, a hip, organic sandwich shop and bakery. There is also a great butcher shop nearby where you can buy excellent meats in case you want to have a cookout. Casa Oasis is the perfect place to explore Baja California Sur’s only true Mexican city, set like a pearl in the crown of the Bay of La Paz. Your days can be spent wandering the shops and markets, strolling the Malecón or heading to the islands for scuba diving, snorkeling, or playing with the sea lion cubs. Casa Oasis offers a lot of privacy. It is located in the interior of the block, connected to the street by a spacious 2-3 car garage. It is in a very quiet and easygoing neighborhood. It’s worth mentioning that the next-door neighbors own a pair of roosters, in the vein of a widespread La Paz culture of having chickens in the backyard. You can often hear their crowing at first light, which may wake a light sleeper. The pool is not heated!
