The Villa - Bellaterra | A Stunning, Serene Retreat in Todos Santos

Soft Pacific light moves through Bellaterra each day, revealing a villa designed for travelers who seek both serenity and connection to the natural world. Set within one of the most coveted enclaves of Todos Santos, this expansive two-story home offers a quiet, curated retreat shaped by ocean views, desert calm, and the seasonal rhythms of Baja’s remarkable wildlife. During winter months, humpback and gray whales can often be seen offshore, adding a sense of wonder to mornings on the terrace.

Created by noted architect Rafael del Toro, the villa spans approximately 11,000 square feet and blends rustic textures with contemporary comforts. The Great Room serves as the home’s centerpiece, defined by a traditional adobe fireplace, open gathering spaces, and a designer kitchen equipped with high-end stainless steel appliances. Five bedrooms and 5 full and 2 half bathrooms—including four en-suite—provide comfort and privacy for up to ten guests. The primary suite offers a restorative retreat of its own, complete with a jetted tub oriented toward the sound and shimmer of the ocean.

Throughout the home, custom stonework and broad covered terraces blur the boundary between indoors and out. The second-floor family and game room encourages easy afternoons around the custom pool table or a relaxed drink at the bar.

Outdoor living unfolds at an unhurried pace. Mornings begin by the pool, afternoons drift beneath the palapa lounge, and evenings gather around the outdoor kitchen as Baja’s golden light fades toward dusk. A short desert path leads to a quiet beach that stretches for miles—an ideal spot for walking, wildlife viewing, or witnessing the nearby sea turtle sanctuary during seasonal releases.

Bellaterra offers a grounded, atmospheric experience where ocean horizons, open-air living, and the character of Todos Santos come together in a place that restores and inspires.
