Fly Into LTO Loreto International Airport and your 8 minutes from the villa. I recommend renting a car since there is so much to see just 15 minutes up and down the coast. Its 15 minutes from downtown where you can enjoy the historical authentic town and many restaurants. Loreto has the oldest Mission in baja and its still a working mission... Enjoy Sunday mass like a local. Right across the street enjoy a fresh hand squeezed juice from the juice bar. LOTS of great shopping too.

Paradise By the Sea

This is the second or third time we have stayed at this well-appointed home. It is located in the beautiful Founders community, near the pool and easy walking distance to the beach, restaurants, coffee shops, golf, etc. The Owner is a delightful and responsive host. Do yourself a favor and spend a week in this home on the beautiful Sea of Cortez!!

Overall the property was as advertised. However we were unable to use WiFi as the password wasn’t left where indicated. We were unable to contact host as my phone wouldn’t operate in Mexico. If I had been able to contact host I suspect that WiFi would have been fine.

spacious and comfortable

This home was very comfortable and clean with lovely mountain views from the top deck. It was exactly as advertised. We loved the lap pool and the dark, starry skies at night. The neighborhood was very well maintained, had beautiful landscaping, and felt safe. We were disappointed that it is no longer possible to rent kayaks or SUPs at Nopolo Beach unless you are a guest of the adjacent hotel and that the condominium complex has no gym. It was nice that there were a handful of eating options in the neighborhood, but it is absolutely essential to have a car for groceries, ATMs, buying purified water, and most activities. There seemed to be no ride-share options.

Loreto Village is amazing...

We were blown away by finding such a well planned, beautifully designed community. We enjoyed our stay very much and plan to visit again. We happened to visit off season so most restaurants within the Village were not open, but the offset to that was that it was incredibly quiet. We plan to go back in season to experience that as well.

Aug stay

We had a wonderful vacation. The property is beautiful and immaculate. The community is really cute, the only bummer was that we were there during the off season and many places in Napolo Bay were closed. It wasn’t a problem though because Loreto was a quick car ride, and had many great restaurants and things to do. Everyone we met was extremely friendly. Thank you for a great vacation.

Peace and Quiet

We arrived at Nopolo on a Thursday afternoon. Although we had some trouble finding the place, once we were here it felt so peaceful. Walking distance to lap pool and beach. The place was spacious, nicely decorated, quiet. It was great having a cup of morning coffee on the top deck with views of the very deep blue sea. Everything you need is right within walking distance.

Tranquil Retreat

This property is located steps from beautiful Nopolo Bay where we relaxed under a palapa on the beach. The pool facilities are wonderful and we dined at a number of local restaurants in the community. We went stand up paddle boarding in the bay and estuary, that includes a mangrove. The proximity to the marina is about 10 minutes and we had a great time scuba diving and fishing with a couple local companies. The owner was very communicative and easy to work with. One of the best and most relaxing vacations. We will definite be back.

Loreto gem

We loved our stay in Loreto. The home is well appointed, clean and comfortable. It is located in this community (built by an American developer who dodged the draft to Canada--got the scoop at a gallery opening) that has everything one needs for a lovely get-away. There are several restaurants, nail salon, spas, and a bakery all within the complex. The patio/outlook on the top level has amazing views--perfect spot for sunset margaritas. The condo is close to the airport and town. Loreto is a gem of a town--great food, safe, friendly people, inexpensive. Fauna, the owner, is incredibly responsive and attentive. Can't go wrong staying here!

Perfectly spectacular and incredibly relaxing!

From the beginning of our reservation to the end of our stay, this was one of the best Airbnb experiences ever! The property was spotless upon our arrival and decorated with the local beauty of Baja, including very unique and artistic tile. The upper decks were perfect for sunbathing and relaxing and access to the beach was very easy. So glad we stayed here with such great hosts who were so helpful to help connect us with some locals who had all of the knowledge of the area.

Golf, beach, restaurants, kayak, gardens - all at your doorstep

Zen vacation. Villa is beautifully decorated and located is in suburban style community full of Canadians and Americans. We loved having breakfast in the third floor tower looking at mountains in the west and ocean in the east. BBQ and summer kitchen were bonus. We participated in some of the activities in the community centre, used the library, and tried each of the restaurants in walking distance. We used car to explore hiking trails and visit town of Loreto; one could easily do without wheels though. We would definitely return to this villa.
