Did we mention we have chickens and fresh ranch eggs? Well, Hacienda Eco-Domes is home to friendly naturally fed chickens. Guests are welcome to join us in picking fresh eggs in the morning hours.

Fresh Veggies! We also have 3 lovely vegetable and herb gardens where guests are welcome to pick herbs or vegetables to make fresh home-cooked meals.

Water is King in the Baja California Desert! Water use is precious so we ask our guests to monitor excessive water usage.

We do recycle all grey and black water for use on trees and non-food production areas. And we also harvest the rainwater.

100% Solar Powered! Hacienda Eco-Domes is grid tied powered by our 30 Solar Panels on the roof of the main house.

Spring and Fall Climate:
Our weather is usually perfect during this time of year. Temps hover around 70 F during this time. No need for heat or fans.

Summer and Winter Climate:
At the very hottest time of year; usually July, August, and September, the outside temperatures sometimes can get over 100 F and since we're only 15 minutes from the ocean, the air can also get a little humid. Inside the domes, the air is much cooler due to the outstanding insulating properties of Earthbag Super Adobe construction. It can be about 75 F in the domes when the outside is 105 F. Nevertheless, we do offer space fans to keep the air flowing. It just makes the space super comfortable during these extreme high-temperature days.

For winter months; December, January, and February, the temperatures, at night, can get below freezing, Inside the domes, during these times, the temperature will be about 55-60 F, so we offer space heaters for those who like to keep it more cozy.

The dome is non-smoking. No pets allowed in the domes

We hope you will join us in the wonderful Valle de Guadalupe for your upcoming vacation!

Neighborhood highlights

We are in the heart of the Baja Wine Country. We have over 100 wineries within 20 minutes from the property with many just down the main road.

This is desert country living. Our dirt roads are a bit bumpy and dusty so, if traveling by car, bring something you don't mind getting dirty. Try to not bring a low profile car. It makes the driving around the wine country roads slower and less enjoyable. Brings something like a SUV or CrossOver car with a higher clearance profile; much better.
