This is just what we wanted: A quiet getaway on the Sea of Cortez. It was nice to be able to swim in the salt water and also have a pool as well. And one of the best restaurants in the area just a short walk away! Villa Linda Mar was the perfect spot for us and we were sad to leave. ##### Gordon W.

The sunsets were amazing from the roof and we had some really fun kayak excursions and then would go to La Picazon (half mile away) for an amzing meal and drinks. Swam near dolphins on the last day! The bed was super comfortable! ##### Bo T.

It's an off grid property so we always ask a lot of questions about that, and had a great conversation with Linda and Johannes. Casita's are beautiful, everything works well. It is a long, slow drive out there - while not that many kilometers, it's on a windy, dirt/rock road and is a good 20-25 mins from the Malecon, and shopping/dining services. Bring a high clearance rental! ##### Amy Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deborah I. 11 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfort in a gorgeous setting The setting is amazing, right on the sea with the desert all around, huge rugged mountains behind and the wide clear sky above. This is 20 minutes outside of town, so extremely quiet and peaceful. Our two bedroom, two bath casita was very nice with comfortable beds, beautiful outdoor sitting areas and a well-equipped kitchen. Kayaks and snorkeling gear are for guests' use. Though it was too chilly to use the pool (in early February), it looked inviting. The fact that all this luxury is available off the grid made it interesting to think of all the planning that had to go into this. Johannes and Linda were perfect hosts from the first communication to the last. Highly recommend. ##### Deborah I. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### red r. 1 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Beautiful Loreto Linda and Johannes were present and available. The location is beautiful, about a 20-30 minute drive on a dirt road from Loreto. Stargazing was beautiful from the rooftop deck. Also beautiful view of the gulf. Beach was a rock beach, not sandy. It was beautiful, but not great for kid play or a walk down the beach. Pool was a little on the cold side it being February and solar heated. Saw some great wildlife, birds, dolphins and blue whales from the casita. Also did several boat trips to islands in the Marine park and saw some up close! The listed price was not accurate, there is an undisclosed expectation of an increased rate for more than 2 people. Linda and Johannes met us when we arrived and were responsive and hospitable throughout our stay. ##### red r.

We enjoyed our short but sweet visit very much. Linda and Johannes have built a great community of their own. They have everything you need to make your visit a grand one. It is quiet and relaxing as well as very convenient to the city (Loretto). They also went out of their way to help us locate some items we needed to take with us to our next destination as well. Thank you! We are hoping our next visit will be longer and we are already talking about bringing friends and family. ##### Bretta R.

They were always attent to our needs and make us feel supercomfortable. House was clean and had all the amenities available. We feel like in our home but in the beach instead 😊. Beautiful mornings and nights with the views of the Isla Coronado. We were able to see dolphins during our stay. Johannes and Linda answered all our questions and they seem very knowledgeable of the area. Very safe place to visit. We will stay again for sure!

The night sky without ANY light pollution, steps away from Loreto Bay, beautiful morning and evening sky's then this is for you. The owners were friendly and helpful with an interest story about how this all came about. The only downside is the road in which, shall we say, is rather unimproved. ##### Charles M. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori M. 21 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sunny reprieve away from people While the property location is remote, it’s close enough to town to get supplies. Our goal was to relax and do nothing, and this was a great spot for that. The casita was clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen. Everyone else staying there was pleasant, and they were all staying much longer than the week we had rented. I will say the sea was hard to get in and out of with any waves because of the ‘rocks’ (small boulders), but manageable if you are motivated. The pool was listed as ‘solar heated’ but please read that is only as hot as the coldest nighttime temperature. We did enjoy the pool on the days that were not windy, and would have enjoyed it more if a touch more care was put into keeping it cleaned. If you you like watching the sunrise from your front porch, relaxing during the day, and catching the sunset from the rooftop after preparing a nice dinner then this place is for you. ##### Lori M.

Top of the line accommodations and amenities. We regularly cooked our meals in the well appointed kitchen and barbecued utilizing the common patio area. Morning sunrises on the patio and nightly fires on the beach were amazing. Johannes and Linda were wonderful host and shared their wealth of knowledge of the local area with us. Highly recommend this location and will stay there again on our next trip to Loreto. ##### Vaughn P. Stayed 12 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Feb 2019 #### Contentment surrounded by undisturbed beauty of Nature Linda and Johannes have created a natural environment using local, environmentally respectful products. They are full of enthusiasm and knowledge about their greater Loreto community. Their gracious welcome (also from their dog Teddy and curious Tabby cat) and their suggestions for adding to the best sources to enjoy Sea of Cortez were a 10+. We especially enjoyed following them to the Sunday farmers' market where I bought camarones (shrimp) caught early that morn! The 25 minute dirt road drive would have been easier on my lower back if we'd been recommended to rent a SUV or Jeep! We agreed we will bring our our own pillows next time. We also would plan to visit a few weeks later in the year, and if not, I'd bring warmer layers. I was disappointed that the pool water was too chilly for me. This is a serene spot to regroup and reclaim a sense of reverence. We found the nearby restaurant, Picazon excellent and dined their 3 times, for lunch, appetizers and margaritas and dinner. We loved all the new and different chile relenno preparations! Wishing I were looking out at The Sea of Cortez and Isla coronado right now! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa B. 28 Dec 2017 #### beautiful, secluded and spacious!

Gorgeous views of Isla Coronado and the Sea of Cortez. We loved our beautiful blue casita and it could not have been more comfortable or more attractive. We loved on the patio and we enjoyed hearing the birds and watching the pangas go by on the water. We used the kayaks and the pool. The beach is quite rocky, no sand, but easy to manage. I found some unusual shells. I highly recommend this great spot, especially if you want to be off the grid for awhile! Loreto turned out to be our favorite town after traveling for two weeks and doing the entire southern loop. The drive to Loreto is spectacular with views of mountains & sea! ##### Catherine W.

The Kuehls are very nice, attentive and helpful. They are very fast on follow ups, they care for their guests. We want to go back, and will plan on doing so, as soon as we have another opportunity. We are already recommending them to our friends. The only thing we would recommend is for signs on the road to get there! Looking forward for our next visit! Kind regards, Kylene Valle and Aseneth Bala ##### Kylene V.

You can tell this has been quite the project with 3 casitas finished and one about to be done. There was no construction while they had guests on site. The location and setting are perfect for a quiet vacation. We stayed in Casita Carmen which is the closest to the sea and the most private. They just finished their pizza oven and hosted a pizza party while we were there! Maybe you'll be lucky and they'll do it again. It is a remote location away from town, but is only a 10-15 minute drive through the desert. Linda & Johannes are very helpful if you need them, but otherwise you don't have much interaction with people out in this little oasis on the sea. ##### Craig W.

Its a short 12 or 15 minute drive out side of Loreto down a gravel road. It's very peaceful and private and away from the noise of town. It suited us to a "T" . We were able to enjoy all kinds of wild life, from birds, reptiles, gecko's and of course all the sea life. We enjoyed having morning coffee and watching the dolphins swim past and we could see the whales spouting off in the distance. Had we stayed in town we would of missed all that beauty. Linda and Johannes are excellent hosts and made us feel right at home. They were very helpful in showing us how to get around town, best places to eat, hiking trails and arranging our fishing, whale watching and snorkeling trips. Linda was also great at letting us know of local events we may be interested in attending. The casita's were excellent and had all the comforts of home. Very clean and maintained. Hats off to the maid service who out did herself every time. Thanks again Linda and Johannes for making our vacation so enjoyable ##### sandra H. ---
