Loreto Bay Villa, 3 BR, 3 Baths, Sleeps Six, 'Casa Maria'

Casa Maria is in a fully secure casita.. We have 24 hour security. We are away from the business of Downtown Loreto yet can get there in 5-10 minutes by car. There is a great beach front cafe at the nearby Loreto Inn with pool side service with kayak and snorkel rentals right out in front- what more could you ask for? There is also Loreto's only championship 18 hole golf course. Take your golf clubs and walk to the Clubhouse for a round of golf at the Troon championship golf course, designed by David Duval.

The casa was newly constructed in 2007. It is 2100 sq feet, including comfortably appointed rooms with a fully landscaped interior courtyard with a fountain. It is available for rentals for 3 night minimums, or by the week or month(s).The casa is 800 feet to the beach and about 500 feet from the closest community pool. Our entire casa faces the West towards the mountains with a golf course and water view.

There is access to all local amenities including pools, bars and cafes, palapa usage, poolside lounge chairs, rental kayaks & snorkel gear, nearby championship 18 hole golf course, and a tennis courts at the northern complex entrance.

The home has two keyless entrances into the home and courtyard. Exquisite details such as handcrafted Saltillo tile flooring, top of the line cabinetry with hand forged iron detailing, towel bars, artisan wooden french doors and windows. French doors open up to the interior courtyard from the dining and living room area. Ceiling fans in both bedrooms and living room and remote control air conditioning/heat are present throughout.

Best Villa and Location
The quiet corner facing a beautiful mountain view with extra large courtyard was peaceful and perfect for us. Low foot traffic walks. The villa was furnished with upscale COMFORTABLE furniture and beds. The kitchen was stocked with metal flatware, cooking utensils and good pans including baking sheets. The villa was super clean when we arrived. Veronica, the property manager was responsive when we couldn't figure out the a/c in the living room. We can't say enough about what a wonderful experience this week was. Best out of 5 villas we have rented! Only issue was VBRO needs to update list8ng to show proper management company and office location with hours. Thank you Colleen!

Love it, except......
This place was very nice and pleasant. There is no need to go out, if not necessary, very safe, locals are very friendly and welcoming. However; I would say, I'm not the pickiest person but I believe the house needed a little bit work to it. To star of the couches were a little stained from dirt and in between the cushions there was a lot of dirt on it, to the point that I felt a little uncomfortable so we put covers on top of them, the appliances were outdated, like the dish washer I was not able to use it, it turned on but I couldn't make it to work. The window from the room inside the house did not closed properly, it was easy to be opened. Also, the cleaning people looked like they cleaned the house couple of hours before, like honestly you could tell they did not put any effort to clean it, when we moved the couches to find something under it, there was so much dirt under it, toilets were not very cleaned, some dishes and other things. Another thing that I think its important to know is that the structure of the house is not made for families with kids because the rooms are all separated from the house. The rooms and the house are not connected to each other from the inside, its like an Hacienda style. On the other side, the pool was very close to the house, we had beach chairs and a beach umbrella which came in very handy when going out. I gave it a 4 star because everything was very nice, I just wished the house was to the level of the outside community.

Mediocre
We arrived with a message that listed going yo Bahia management company and later found out it was Bama management down the street There were no measuring tools in the kitchen and we choose these accomadations because we enjoy cooking. We were blown away to find out we were furnished with plastic silverware. Eating ice cream was a challenge. When I inquired about beach towels I was told I had been informed we were to ring our own. They have been stolen in the past so no longer furnished. I come here often and don’t have room for beach towels and will find a better furnished place in the future. Place was dark and most blinds were broken and could one opened. I think some of these issues are just the cost of doing business to offer your guests a great experience. To be fair there were a lot of great things but no beach towels and plastic silverware are game changers for us

Beautiful Location • Perfect Home
We truly enjoyed our stay in Loreto Bay. This home fit our family perfectly with room to spare. Had mostly everything we needed and even though our host was out on their own holiday vacation, they were great to respond in a timely manner. Loved the location! The neighborhood has shops and delicious restaurants. The pools and beach were so close. It great walking everywhere and less than a 15 minute drive from downtown Loreto.

Somewhat disappointed in this property...
Over the past few years, this is the third monthly arrangement for a stay in the Founders neighborhood. It is a wonderful area and has provided a special experience for our guests and my wife and me. Unfortunately, the home on this trip fell somewhat short of our expectations. We had several problems....namely, the dishwasher never worked. Rodolfo said it would "be a few days". It never was repaired. Two of the four TV's didn't work. Rodolfo checked once, never returned. Propane..Rodolfo said he would bring another tank. Never saw him again. Notified the owner, she said she would call Rodolfo midway thru our visit.....never heard from either one in the last two weeks. We had some of the same issues other people have mentioned in the past: Ants, very few hand towels or wash cloths, uncomfortable lounge chairs, no shade on top floor. On a positive note, the outside enclosed area was beautiful and well taken care of.

Very nice!
This is the third unit we have rented in the community, it was clean, good condition, and well appointed. Location is conveniently close to parking and short walks to the community pool and the beach! Only challenges were lack of bath hand towels and no way to light the grill. Would rent again!

This is a beautiful home and the complex is safe, clean and quiet. Only a few suggestions for the home owner it to upgrade some things in the home. Kitchen supplies a little outdated and no sharp knives. Patio furniture very uncomfortable without cushions and no umbrellas for shade so the patios were not used which we would have loved. The home owner was very responsive and quick to get back to us. The manager was also helpful and easy to work with. The washer did not work even after they tried to repair it. Suggestion is time to replace it. Beach chairs were great, coach comfi, beds comfi. No bicycles, not even two which we missed as we stayed there before in another house which had them. Issues with the very slow internet most of the time.
