A fantastic guest house in La Punta. Hosts are friendly and full of local knowledge, the pool is a delight in the hot weather, and the internet allowed us to easily have video calls when needed. Rooms are cute and come with beach and shower towels. It is 3 blocks from the main street and beach in La Punta, just far enough to not hear much but close to everything. Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed my stay at Casa Baba. it is close walking distance to main area of La Punta and the beach. The boutique vibe of the property is exactly how the photos show it. The pool was nice and refreshing in the afternoon with great places to lounge. There are only six rooms so if felt quiet & private. The shower water was very hot but low water pressure. I would stay here again!

My friend and I were in a tight spot and needed quick accommodation— Misha was super responsive and helpful, we were able to get there and check in immediately. Really beautiful spot with a great pool and kitchen area, well equipped rooms, and super close to the beach.

The perfect place for our 9 nights in La Punta. A superbly renovated small complex, Casa Baba was private and secure, yet only 100m from the main action and beach. The rooms were modern, spacious and well appointed. We loved the pool and day beds for relaxing in the afternoon and the communal kitchen and dining area was a bonus. Misha was an outstanding host - friendly, helpful, responsive and provided many excellent food and activity suggestions. I recommend booking direct.

Casa Baba is an amazing get away in La Punta just great. Spotless clean, great outdoor kitchen, nice to relax, and really great owners. Misha was so helpful in everything and he has great contacts for anything you might need. Doctor, motorbike, massage.... I would definitely recommend staying at Casa Baba. Muchas gracias for your welcoming hospitality. We felt like home, just better because we can cook outside.

The location is ideal. The property itself is beautiful and Felipa and Misha are welcoming. The room was spacious. I enjoyed the hammock in the mornings. The bathroom has an amazing shower head with running hot water, a big plus for me. And lastly , great wifi in the rooms and throughout the grounds.
