Lovely place, great host
After getting tired of staying in hotels while our house wast being remodeled, I booked a last-minute trip to Nopolo (Loreto Bay). Given that I was also rehabbing my knee from a surgery that didn’t go well, my wife and I were a wreck. Thus we were THAT guest who has wants and needs and is always bugging the host for something. Through it all, Eliise was responsive, kind, and perfect. By the end of our 12 days, our souls were restored. (We’re old. Full body restoration takes longer at our age! 😁) The house floor plan and construction is typical of what you find in the Founders Neighborhood (FN) area of Loreto Bay. As others have noted, location is perfect, though that applies to almost every casa in Founder’s Neighborhood. The beach, kayak rentals, a small but surprisingly complete grocery store, a pharmacy, and good restaurants are all just a few steps away. Two more small grocery stores, a great bakery, and more restaurants are about 1/2 mile away, an easy walk. The kitchen is extremely well equipped with every gadget you can think of. My only minor gripe is that some of the frypans have been mistreated and are ready for replacement (just like things in your own kitchen 😱). The on-site PM is very responsive. Upon leaving, we told Eliise about some maintenance items that might need attention. Our home not being ready, we stayed another week nearby. The next day, I walked by and saw maintenance folks working on the items I mentioned. Ignore the lone negative review.

Never again!
We arrived after driving eight days to a dirty kitchen and overflowing trash. Our daughter was locked out (broken doorknob) and fell into a cactus on the patio. We spent three hours pulling and cutting needles out of our baby. No smoke detectors or ventilation in toilet area. There was only one 32 in TV and one couch to sit on. The microwave and dishwasher stopped working after the second week. There is some kind of electricity problem as lights would flicker. No communication with PM except once. We were looking forward to this as we were meeting with our builder. This place was the only sore spot of our trip. The owners need to talk to their renters as well as the PM more frequently. I sent a email to owners and was never replied to personally. I would NOT recommend this place until they address these issues. I would have picked zero if there was a option for that.

A great 6 weeks!
This was our first time to Loreto Bay and really loved it. It is a safe, friendly, beautifully kept community and we will be back. The Casa was top notch in a great location and we enjoyed everything about it. We spent lots of time in the courtyard and enjoyed using the bikes and the beach chairs were really nice to have. I would definitely recommend Eliisa’s Casa and Loreto Bay.

Great place!
I came to Loreto with my husband and teenage daughters. We have been maybe 5-6 times and this is our favorite apartment yet. Very clean, fantastic cookware, great location near El Corazon. The owner and manager were wonderful to work with. I had a few questions during my stay and Dawn was very responsive. Highly recommend this place for a couple or small family.

Beautiful property, to enjoy breathtaking mountain and sea views.
Eliisa home is beautiful, well decorated and very comfortable. All the furniture and appliances top quality and relatively new. The king size beds are very comfortable with quality bed linens. The kitchen has every small appliance you'll need for your holiday, as well as lots of cookware, dishes, and cutlery. We stayed for 8 weeks and never were without a necessary item. Property managers Dawn and Chris were there to meet us. They're very helpful and respond immediately! They were excellent. During our stay we rented a car 3 times, one week each, to enjoy site seeing. Almo airport location had good rates and will deliver the car to you in Nopolo free of charge. Within a few blocks is a great little grocery store. It's small but has everything, just ask. Also a short walk (5 minutes) is Pan que Pan Bakery and pizza, and James' Organic vegetables. There many restaurants, all within walking distance.

Casa 136 is ideally located in Loreto Bay.
A lovely casa.....great location. Easy walking distance to all restaurants, beach, community centre, shops. I loved having the outdoor courtyard off the living room. One recommendation I might make is to replace the loveseat in the living room. There is no seating for guests and the loveseat is quite dirty. Apart from that, the casa is well-equipped with linens and towels and kitchen gadgets.

Beautiful Vacation Home
We loved Eliisa's place! She and her property manager were wonderful to deal with. The home is in a great spot, and the security people and other people who either lived or were staying at Loreto Bay were also very friendly. The home itself was amazing. We loved the outdoor spaces and spent a lot of time in the garden area, reading, playing cards, and visiting. The rooftop space was great for star gazing. The beds were super comfy, and huge, and we loved the fact that it had two master bedrooms with their own complete bathrooms. The kitchen was very well stocked, and we found everything we needed to prepare our own meals in terms of appliances, and cookware, and there were some condiments available as well. We even found 2 cold beer in the fridge- which we drank upon our arrival, and later replaced. We used one of the pools, and sat on the beach for a day, and the kayaking and snorkelling were great. We saw lots of great sea life right off of the rocks at the end of the beach. We rented a car, and left the community for day trips, but there was enough to do right there if you didn't want to travel. The grocery store was fairly well stocked and there were a couple of restaurants and a cafe open. I would definitely recommend Eliisa's vacation home.

We took our college aged son on his spring break to Loreto.
We have been here before and have yet to have a bad experience with the Loreto Bay Community. There is plenty to do or do nothing at all your choice.Our home this time was no exception, everything was up to par and the property manager came by first day of our stay to see if we needed anything. Will be going back as soon as possible.

Clean, comfortable escape from reality
We spent only a few days at this property in Loreto and wished it could have been longer. We arrived unprepared (without an address--our fault!), but the security office was incredibly helpful, going so far as to bring us to the casa. All of the workers were exceptionally friendly, as were other guests/residents. The casa is beautiful and very well maintained; most importantly, it was clean--everywhere. The kitchen is equipped with everything from toaster to blender and coffee/espresso makers. We enjoyed the lovely patio that is private in a courtyard-like setting; we didn't use the rooftop patio as it gets complete sun and is less private, but both patios are furnished with comfortable seating. Having two bathrooms, both with showers, was great. The beach is a short walk away and wasn't crowded, though it was quite windy when we were there. The village does have decent restaurants/cafes. We were glad to have rented a car (though that was an ordeal at the airport, despite having a reservation) so that we could explore Loreto and drive up the coast, but there are no other towns nearby to visit. This would be the only word of caution about Loreto: you are quite restricted in terms of things to do unless you're a golfer, and if the weather is windy, as is often the case, you're a bit stuck. The community seems to be largely made up of retirees and their guests, so don't expect to experience Mexican culture. This is a very pretty escape from reality.

good value
Very charming 2 bedroom unit. Priced fairly and an economical choice for people on a budget. The unit is laid out nicely and in a good location. Beds were comfortable and the house was clean upon arrival. Things to improve on are minor however in my opinion it's good to mention for the sake of a fruitful review. 1/ The tv is very old and could be upgraded 2/ basic cable with only 2 or 3 English channels 3/ the upstairs bedroom smells musty 4/ the cable was very slow and unreliable 5/ the water dispenser which is independent of the refrigerator is not cooled and when we change bottles we noticed small flies had gotten inside as it isn't a tight seal. 6/ the bbq hadn't be cleaned forever in the guts of the bbq so it flamed up right away (I took it apart and cleaned it. These were all small issues for us not a big deal however maybe for some people it would not satisfy them. In conclusion, Eliisa was easy to deal with and accommodating and again her place was priced very fairly and I would recommend it to others.

We are going back!!
We stayed a week in early June 2016 and have already booked for 2017. First, this casita is located very well. Short walks to cafes, pools, general store and golf. It is right on the paseo, which makes it very convenient if you have a rental car. The casita is nicely appointed with everything you need for your stay, and the bed was very comfy. We had a great time, Loreto is very relaxing and I liked the golf course. Can't wait to get back in January!

Beautiful Area
We spent a very relaxing two weeks in this well appointed casita. We had all the amenities we needed and enjoyed the area. The restaurants were fabulous, kayaking was great, landscaping and walkways beautifully maintained. My husband and son said the golf course was challenging. We did rent a vehicle without any problems and I think it was necessary to have for exploring the area. Because the casita is on the paseo, it was a little noisier that others may be with traffic and foot traffic, but by 11pm, everything was pretty quiet. We would like to come back in a couple of years and spend a month in beautiful Loreto Bay.

Eliisa's Casita is a Pefect Romantic Getaway
We spent a week in the Casita enjoying the quiet laid back atmosphere of Loreto Bay. It was a wonderful change from the big crowded locations we have been to in the Caribbean, Hawaii, and Mexico's big resorts like Cabo. Most evenings we walked up or down the main street to one of the great restaurants located in the village. A car is good to have to explore and drive up to San Javier Mission for a day. The Casita was well equipped with everything we needed. Comfy beds, big walk in showers, the roof top patio gets just the right shade in the afternoon to enjoy the breeze and read a book or have a cocktail. Great place in a great location. Thanks.

Beautiful home in gorgeous Loreto Bay!
As a family of 5 (including a toddler, 6 year old and 8 year old children), we really needed a family getaway. Eliisa's home in Loreto Bay was the perfect answer! Our kids adored their time at the Loreto Bay beach (though watch out for sting-rays!), and in the gorgeous community pool, and my husband and I appreciated the beautiful home (with a lovely kitchen, dishwasher, and soaker tub), cute local cafe, and a nice place to relax with our family. We also enjoyed going into the town of Loreto (about a 10 minute drive), where we went on a boat trip snorkelling to the local Coronado Island. Also, as an aside, Eliisa and her property manager Dawn were very responsive, answered our questions/emails promptly, and were wonderful to rent from. MUCH recommended!!! We can't wait to go back!

The BEST Mommy Get Away
This was a well earned quick 3 night 4 day get away to a sleepy fishing town, so I thought. It turns out Loreto Bay is fun easy trip to Mexico that is quicker than a Friday commute from Orange County to downtown LA. We flew direct from LA to Loreto and it was less than 2 hours. Everything was super clean, seriously I saw the grounds men cleaning the street lamps every day, relaxing and super safe. My girlfriends and I are all in our 40's and we had the best time just talking, eating, drinking and relaxing on patios, poolside and sipping coffee or Tequila. Everyone around us was a like minded professional or retired, visiting and or vacationing from Canada, and/or the US -- everyone was enjoying a little fun in the sun. The Loreto Bay resort had 3 pools, one to fit your mood, 1) for exercise, 2) for drinking and 3) for family time. There was a fun wine bar with live music one night and the cutest little coffee shop for breakfast every morning. The fishing town of Loreto was a quick 10 minute drive where all of the towns people and vacationers were just as friendly as at the resort. I felt very safe and welcomed. The house we stayed at was clean, well appointed and meticulously maintained. I simply cannot wait to go back.

Dog friendly
I really appreciate rentals that allow pets. We drove down the Baja with our dog and stayed in this rental for two weeks. It's a beautiful area and the home is beautiful as well. The negatives for us, no closet in the main bedroom and the second master upstairs was very musty smelling. We had friends coming for a week and aired it out, but could never get rid of the smell. I wouldn't recommend young children stay here, the stairs are steep and the railing is covered with vines, so hard to hold onto. There is only 1 small loveseat in the living room, so we had to bring in chairs from the patio to make seating for four. There is a keurig on the counter but after a search of all the grocery stores in Loreto, no one sells the kcups. Bring your own! You will need to supply your own paper products and garbage bags too. Also be prepared for the gardening crew to come in once a week. On the positive, there are plenty of towels, the beds are comfortable, beautiful grounds and pools, the local eateries are good and we had a great time. I would highly recommend you have a car to get around.

Loved it!
First, the house is great, it was exactly what we were looking for. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very large, and we enjoyed the garden everyday. Warm days, cool nights. Never needed the AC--perfect sleeping weather. The concierge was great, no matter what we needed, she was on it! The house was well set up with the basics (paper goods, soap, a k-cup machine and, thankfully--spices). We took several day trips from here including a trip to Coronado Island, a hike to the cave paintings and a drive to the Mission, but most of the time we enjoyed the house, the property, read a lot and just relaxed The only negative was that the Internet was frustratingly slow and on-site restaurant choices are limited, but we just shifted course and cooked-in more. Luckily there is a gas grill in the garden.

One of our best vacations ever!
We have spent a bit of time in Baja, and a little time in Nopolo scuba diving and eating at the restaurant in the past, however we had never actually stayed in one of the houses. This house was WAY above expectation and especially for the price. We were central to everything that Nopolo has to offer. We completely fell in love. The house is quite large and there was more than enough space for all of us.

I wanna go back!
4 of us spent a glorious 10 days at this wonderful casa in Loreto Bay. The property was just as described online. Everything was clean and in order and the property manager Dawn greeted us moments after we arrived. I did not find any of the issues that were reported by another guest...we had new towels, sheeting and plenty of closet and drawer space. The kitchen was stocked with a nice assortment of cutlery, pots etc and we even had Trader Joe's spices for use. I was very grateful for the few items the owners provided..extra sun screen etc. True that the couch is small but we loved the large dining table to play cards and eat meals. We spend our time at the beautiful beach or at the lap pool...so a couch and tv were not an issue for us..water and sunsets are our interest. Great massages and facials by Maria at the hotel...Veggie Lasagna at the Wine Bar..yummm...our regards to Will and Cynthia the owners. If you get in town on a Thursday night all you can eat Pizza is served at the Mission Inn...along with entertainment in the patio. We are already making plans for another extended holiday at this property. Mucho Bueno!
