Great family vacation
We had a great stay at Cinco Palmas. A beautiful week celebrating new years and enjoying San Jose and the East cape. Matt was super responsive when we had any questions or needed anything. Lots of construction in the area but that’s always been the case when we are there and it didn’t disturb our wonderful week.

personal thoughts
Architecture, landscaping, decorating are all off the scale great! Luis speaking only spanish is a challenge but could not visit without him. This property is in a transition phase. With some personal attention from the owner(s), it will be great for a long time to come. The rating given for accuracy and overall... are filling in the blank only, NOT actual. The actual requires details. Question: Are two 24 hour a day yapping dogs 10 yards from the patio even relevant? Most likely renters? Very loud and busy construction 7:45 - 5:15 five+ days a week not only the ocean front complex but all around. This was mostly disclosed in advance. The ocean view for all practical purposes is GONE. Various other small concerns should be addressed. Josh was easily accessable. Thank you.

Beautiful Stay - Recommended
We were 3 couples and enjoyed the beautiful shared spaces as well as private rooms. Outdoor areas were perfect for relaxing and enjoying one another’s company. Guards at gate were friendly and felt safe for entire stay. Josh was responsive and attentive. Enjoyed short trips to San Jose for great food, art and culture. We enjoyed fabulous golf in the area as well. Is off beaten path and quiet area. Currently construction goes on during weekdays as stated in listing, but was not an issue for any of us. Great oasis near San Jose Del Cabo. Would rent again.

Perfect getaway with friends
This home is beautiful with the perfect layout for families or couples. We were a group of 6 and made the most of all the space and the great location. Kitchen is fully equipped and we ate about 60% of our meals onsite. It’s a quick drive or a nice walk down to the beach. Josh was extremely nice and easy to work with. Awesome host, awesome home! If I wasn’t in the process of building my own place on the East Cape, I’d be back for sure.

Excellent house
The house is just as spacious and charming as the photos show. Beautiful view. Great setup with the private suites and many communal areas. Well equipped kitchen. The house is clean and well maintained. Communication with the host was easy. Buzzards is as good as everyone says. Beach access is next to Buzzards opposite the 24-hr guard gate. Only downside was the longer drive to town but it was totally worth it.

Fantastic experience. The villa was beautiful and clean. Gorgeous old-school Mexican haicenda vibes.
Had a fantastic week at the villa. Was a perfect amount of space for 3 couples. Everyone felt like they had their own little space but very much loved the outdoor hacienda style living. Josh was super responsive for the couple of things needed at the beginning of the stay. Renting a car is a must. We will definitely be back to this villa in the future.

Home Away From Home in Authentic Baja!
So over the past few years we have usually stayed at the big hotels that are found along the coast and we figured we know Los Cabos enough now that it was time to go local... and it did not disappoint! What an amazing authentic Baja stay at Cinco Palms. From the immaculate grounds and location, to the charm and relaxation - Cinco palms was absolutely everything and more. You literally have your own little compound to enjoy with zero neighborhood interaction - no guests slamming doors, no watered down resort drinks and no loud pool parties all day. If you want authentic Baja California, this is it. Make some ceviche in the cozy kitchen, crack a beer by the pool and enjoy some Baja sun! Josh was an amazing host and was very responsive. Directions were clear (although an address, or Cinco Palms sign would help!) and the whole stay was very easy. Here is our recommendations for whoever wants to stay at this beautiful property: Thanks Josh, we'll be back! Suggestions: -Rent a car! We did and it was a lifesaver. Everything in town was about 10-15 minutes away from the house (golf, downtown SJD...) and you'll need it as Uber/taxi is very hard to get. -Order groceries (including water!) to be delivered upon arrival (we used ask4delivery cabo - Gerry was great!) -Buzzards is ok, kind of too Americana for us, but definitely head into SJD for authentic mexican: Tacos Lupita, Jardín Secreto, Casa Natalia, Jazmins were some of our favorites. -Bring BUG spray and keep your screen doors closed! We will be bringing candles, spray next time as we got eaten alive, but that's country living in Baja in April I guess :) -Also neighborhood cats will explore after hours, so keep the kitchen door closed and trash put away. -TV room was great, coldest room on property! We booked, massages in there and enjoyed a movie or two. Great WiFi. Cons: None really! Except.. -Pool is not heated: Not really a con, but when it got windy or sometimes in the AM the pool was a little too cold to get in. -Minor construction below the house, but we only noticed it a few times in the mornings.

First off, you’ll never have a more responsive host. Josh immediately replied to all texts and had someone there within the hour with anything that needed fixing or changing, like the propane bottle on the bbq or the timing on the hot tub. Secondly, I needed to be online every morning for work meetings hosted on Zoom or Teams. I never had a single dropped video call or meetings. It’s the best wifi at a rental house I’ve ever had. Third, the outdoor area is outstanding. We spent most of our time at the house here. The deck chairs are very new and the couch is the perfect place for morning coffee to catch some early morning sun. The pool toys are nice to have to keep you afloat while cooking in the pool. Even though we cooked breakfast and a couple of dinners at the house, given a choice, I would have eaten all my meals at Buzzards. I absolutely love their food and it’s very reasonably priced. That being said, there were lots of utensils and cookery to make meals. We really enjoyed our time here and will be back! Thanks Josh. You have a great place.

Mostly Very Good; some not so good....
Recently spent 5 nights at Josh Russell’s property, Cinco Palmas, in San Jose del Cabo. The home itself is lovely, and the photos accurately depict the sun-drenched premises. There’s a 24 hour manned security gate at the entrance; we felt well protected. I’m in total agreement with the VRBO reviews that led me to Josh’s place in attesting to the comfort of the home in general; the bedding, plenty of towels, lovely pool, nice patio furniture, a more than adequately appointed kitchen, as well as the overall responsiveness by Josh, the owner. So, one might expect 5 star praise all around; but nothing is ever perfect, and there were a few flies in the ointment as it were. Biggest complaint was about Wifi service. OK, it might be argued that coming to such an idyllic spot that one might want to get away from all that. But it’s 2021 and having the internet to provide the ability to research restaurants, consult maps, deal with airline check-ins and Covid-testing, do email, and perhaps even a little work is kind of an essential fact of modern life. In fact, in his listing, Josh has in the “Amenities/Essentials” section both Internet and Wifi as separate line items. On arrival we found the Wifi spotty, and as time went on it became non-functional totally during daytime hours and VERY slow in early morning/ late night. When Josh was informed of this his response was less than satisfactory. He laid blame on a hurricane that had happened several weeks prior to our stay, and told me he’d had fiber optic recently installed, but had yet to get a router for it. Having paid nearly $600/day for our stay you might think Josh would offer something other than ‘I’m really sorry about this’ as a result of not providing one of the ‘Essential’ amenities of his own listing. I’m sure that, collectively, we racked up some serious charges using the personal hotspots on our phones. But no offer came, and I’m not exactly holding my breath. Potential renters of this property should also know that the directions Josh provided might be a little hard to follow, especially for first time visitors to Los Cabos. I’d recommend using GPS directing you Buzzard’s Restaurant. Worked flawlessly; full disclosure: this is also a suggestion that Josh made. Once inside, a four wheel drive vehicle is advisable. Lastly, while our 2nd fl bedroom was really lovely and had a patio providing shade and a place to sit the shower water pressure was weak left a lot to be desired.

Josh, we enjoyed everything about your amazing home. Great courtyard, very nice pool with hot tub, and yes Ocean 🌊 views. In addition, we loved the design and great attention to detail of this spectacular oasis. We also appreciated the fact that you kept us abreast of possible inclement weather...that was truly going above and beyond! Please remember if you decide to sell...let me be the first call.

Even better than the listing
First off, I have to say that this house was even better than the photos show on VRBO. So that in of itself is rare. Then when we had a small check in challenge. The owner/property manager was available immediately to help sort everything out. Throughout our stay, we were blown away with the house and the service. Outdoor space and pool was very well taken care of. The owner/property manager Josh was quick to respond to our questions and requests. The neighborhood was amazing, clean, safe and so easy to access. The Property itself was perfect for our family, we all had our private space when we needed it. But the use of outdoor space was amazing. In short, we are already looking for when we can come back to SJD and rent this property again.

The property is beautiful and it was a wonderful, relaxing experience. It has everything you could need. We made breakfast every morning and went out to eat at one of the several restaurants in town for dinner each night. You wouldn't ever have to leave if you didn't want to. Jose and Luis at the gate were always smiling and kind. Josh answered all questions right away. Buzzards Bar and Grill was also conveniently located and delicious. Couldn't have asked for a better vacation!

Perfect tropical desert
My friends and I had a blast in Laguna Hills! The place looks just as it does in the pictures. The amenities were also nice to have- shampoo, conditioner, an iron, and especially a coffee machine. If you have to have coffee each morning like I do, I recommend bringing coffee grounds with you. Otherwise, Buzzards also has great coffee. As a few others have commented, we recommend renting a car ( ideally an SUV) to get down the hills and over the pothole roads. It was nice driving down the roads and passing the cows and donkeys. The guys at the security gate were also great providing recommendations on where to grocery shop or grab dinner. Bug spray is also essential to bring. We noticed a small bat also living in the outside lobby. it wouldn't bother us but can be frightening if you are scared of animals.

Such a special place
We could not have been luckier to spend 2 weeks at Josh’s home. It was spectacular from start to finish. Everything was just perfect - the location, the home, the pool. It is outdoor living at its finest. Josh was an awesome host - so responsive and helpful - before and during our stay. He bent over backwards to help us when on day one we had an injury that we needed to talk to a doctor about.
