The 10 Best La Paz Airbnbs (#5 Comes with Your Own Private Butler)
Looking for the best La Paz Airbnbs?
You’re in the right place as I’ve called Mexico home since 2018, and I’ve stayed in 50+ Airbnbs all over the country.
La Paz is Baja California Sur’s laid-back capital on the Sea of Cortez, with a long malecón and Espíritu Santo Island just offshore — and some of Mexico’s best Airbnbs.
👀 Curious about my top pick? It’s the architect-designed beachfront villa steps from El Caimancito Beach — check it out here.
The tricky part is that La Paz stretches along the bay, so you have to choose between walking to the malecón and waking up by the beach. That’s where I come in!
I’ve hand-picked a list of places, all with nearly-5 star ratings, lots of glowing reviews and Airbnb’s Guest Favorite badge, and two are even in Airbnb Luxe.
