The beautifully stylish rooms and suites are set around the hotel's quiet courtyard. All enjoy views of the pool and tropical gardens with its cascading waterfalls and tall palms.

The rooms are located in low rise buildings of light stone and wood that are perfectly in keeping with the natural theme which runs throughout the hotel. The colors capture the essence of Baja California, with stone and cream colors representing the desert landscapes and edged with the blue of the ocean and lush palms.

Casa Natalia departs from many general hotel traditions and this ensures that it feels more like a home than a hotel to its guests. Instead of just an anonymous number, each guest room has its own unique name that encapsulates the theme and character of the room.

That there are just two rooms sharing a floor in each of the individual blocks adds to the feeling of privacy and quiet.

Walk through your door on to a canopied terrace with table, chairs and a hammock. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy the tranquility and calm of your surroundings.

The rooms are imaginatively and tastefully decorated using vivid Mexican colors and artwork. Each room has a king-size bed and sitting area with glass doors that lead on to a terrace. Together these create a good mix of indoor and outdoor private space.

The attention to detail is simply amazing - from the wonderful Egyptian cotton linens on the bed to the luxurious herbal toiletries and Talavera pottery featured in the bathrooms.
