Hotel Casa Tota is a hotel under Todos Santos, the small Pacific-coast town known for its galleries, its mission church and its slow pace. Its exact street, room count and facilities are not confirmed here, so check when you book. A smaller hotel in town gives you a different stay from the beach resorts out on the coast, with cafes, restaurants, art spaces and shops within reach and the desert light and old buildings close at hand. Open the map when you book to see how near it is to the plaza and the main street, and compare it with the other town hotels in this guide to judge price, setting and style.
Location and getting around
Todos Santos is compact. The historic center, with the plaza, the mission church, the galleries and most of the restaurants, can be walked in a short time, while the ocean is a few minutes away by car and the best-known beaches, including Los Cerritos, are farther south near El Pescadero.
Cabo San Lucas and La Paz are each a drive of an hour or more along Highway 19. Check the map for Hotel Casa Tota to see whether it is in the center or on the edge of town, and ask the hotel about parking, taxis and transfers.
Rooms and facilities
Room types, courtyards, pools, breakfast and air conditioning are not confirmed here, so check when you book. Many small hotels in this part of Baja have limited on-site services, so ask whether there is a front desk at all hours, whether wifi is reliable and whether there is shade or a pool for the hot afternoons. Read recent guest reviews for comments on noise, cleanliness and how well rooms are kept.
Who it suits and good to know: Couples, art lovers, first-time visitors and anyone who prefers a walkable town base to a large resort will find it worth comparing. It is less suited to travelers who want to step straight onto a beach, since the Pacific here is often rough and the better sand is a drive away. Plan for a car or a taxi for beach days and for the turtle-nesting season, and ask the hotel about tours and surf lessons.
Facilities, room types, meal options and house rules are not confirmed here, so check when you book and read the latest guest reviews for the dates you plan to travel. Ask about air conditioning or fans, wifi, parking, breakfast and any service fees before you pay, and confirm check-in arrangements if you will arrive late, since this is a small town with limited night services. Book early for winter weekends and holidays, and check road and weather conditions before you travel.
