Outside, a large beachfront patio offers wide-open ocean views, direct beach access, and an outdoor shower area. The generous lot and existing footprint provide opportunities for future expansion, including the potential for a pool or additional guest casitas.
With over 4,865sq ft. of total construction including patios and decks, the property offers significant outdoor living space while maintaining a comfortable single-level layout.
Rancho Leonero is one of the most established beachfront communities in the East Cape, located approximately 15 minutes from Los Barriles and 45 minutes from Los Cabos International Airport, providing both privacy and convenient access to services, restaurants, and the marina developments at Costa Palmas. The nearby historic Rancho Leonero Resort was recently acquired by Raffles Hotels & Resorts, reflecting continued investment and long-term confidence in this stretch of East Cape coastline.
This is a rare opportunity to own established beachfront in a legacy East Cape community.

Not included above, because these are negotiated or set per transaction rather than published as a fixed rate: the acquisition tax (ISAI, a municipal percentage that varies by municipality), notary fees, appraisal, registry fees and title insurance. Those come from your notary and closing agent, and I can walk you through them for this specific property. Each one is broken down, concept by concept, in the guide to closing costs in Los Cabos.
A foreign buyer on this coast holds title through a Mexican bank trust rather than directly. How it works, what it costs each year and how it is renewed is explained in the guide to the fideicomiso, the Mexican bank trust.
