This rustic ranch house & palapa was built 80 years ago by the original Mexican ranching family here in La Fortuna.
We have lovingly transformed it into a bohemian style beach lodge providing stylish and affordable accommodation as part of ‘The Baja Station’, a Baja beach community that brings together art, science and nature.
Located in a prime spot in the center of village, the beach and world class waves are meters away, along with our cafe, several bars, restaurants and the village shop.
The space
The palapa bunk bed room is the original housing setup by the Mexican family that own this land, which has been lovingly restored. There are 8 bunk beds available, each one with an individual fan. The palapa is located next to the communal kitchen and art areas.
We believe community is an important part of living life to the full, so we have put effort into creating beautiful common areas to be shared by our residents and guests. These include our Palapa lounge with our giant leather sofa and hammocks that provides a nice cool area during the daytime sun to hang out and relax. There are a range of musical instruments available to play as we love music and always welcome a jam session.
Our communal kitchen features a giant 12-seater table allowing everyone to dine together.
We also have a second outdoor lounge area with fire pit, looking over the village and the Waikiki break, perfect for enjoying sundowners and starry nights.
Sustainability is a key priority for The Baja Station project which means we are working on a range of green initiatives and technologies like water recapture from our showers, composting toilets, waste recycling and upcycling and food production
