Stunning Beachfront Casa and Casita

Stunning 4-bedroom, 4-bath beachfront estate, pool, 7-seat van included
plus 2 kayaks and 2 stand-up paddleboards!
Treat yourself to a five-star stay in a luxurious gated estate with full-time caretaker. Enjoy amazing sea views from virtually every window, your own full-sized pool, lush gardens and a sandy beach on your doorstep. Launch one of the 2 kayaks or 2 paddle boards just steps from the main house which are included in the rental.
Casa de Vista Hermosa and its adjacent casita rent as a single property, combining to offer accommodation for up to 10 adults, or 12 total with children under age 12. Children 12 and over are considered as adults.
The 3,000-square-foot Spanish Colonial casa has 3 large bedrooms, 2.5 baths, an entertainer's dream kitchen, sunlit great room and dining table that seats 12. The 750-square-foot casita has a king bedroom, sofabed in the living room, double-vanity bath and gourmet kitchen. The two houses share a beautifully landscaped courtyard and an outdoor fireplace on one side, pool deck and barbecue area on the other opening through a beach gate to the Sea of Cortez.
The property is an ideal base for multi-generation family gatherings, weddings, special birthdays, friends' reunions, fishing trips or retreats.
This unique property is located in historic Loreto, only 15 minutes' walk from the charming town plaza, the 325-year-old Mission church, shops and restaurants. Or hop in your complementary air-conditioned 7-passenger Toyota Sienna van and you're there in 2 minutes! (The van is insured for guests to use while in Loreto, but a liability waiver is required. See attached.)
The main casa comfortably sleeps 6 or 7 adults in three bedrooms, two of which have king beds; the third has a queen and a double. If there are children in your group, a cot, crib and other kids' gear is available at no charge.
The upstairs master bedroom has its own full bathroom and walk-in closet. The 2 ground-floor bedrooms have built-in closets and desks; they share a "Jack and Jill" double-vanity bathroom with shower. There's a half-bathroom across the hall.
You can toss a coconut from the casa to the casita's doorstep, which sleeps up to 3 more people in a king bedroom plus living room sofabed. The casita has all the luxuries of the main house, but smaller. See photos.
It is no exaggeration to say that visitors just love Loreto. There's so much to see and do! Take a walking tour of the historic mission, hire a boat to go fishing, diving or island hopping, hike the canyons, visit beautiful San Javier in the sierras (by mule!) or golf at one of two resort courses south of town -- 15 minutes' drive to Loreto Bay's golf course, or 30 minutes to the new championship course at Danzante Bay. All of which can easily be arranged with our help. We will direct you to the best people and places (at the best prices) to ensure you get the very most out of your stay in Loreto.
Casa de Vista Hermosa has deluxe beddings, towels and toiletries, and more than 1,000 square feet of outdoor decks with a full fireplace and seating area on the ground floor, plus a built-in BBQ and dining area by the pool. There’s a palapa-covered outdoor living room on the second floor with gas fireplace and stunning 360-degree views of the sea, islands and mountains. The casita has its own private rooftop deck shaded by a pergola, with equally dramatic sea views over the casa and courtyard.
Enjoy a delicious home cooked breakfast with Lucy! For $25.00 plus the cost of food, Lucy will cook your choice of breakfast. Ask about her services.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Pamper yourself with onsite massages or take in the view from a garden.
Breakfast is available for a fee.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Great location
The house worked out well for our families. Pool, kayaks, paddle boards and beach were well used! There was a very loud all-night party on Saturday night out on the point. We had great meals-cooking in, hiring Lucy, and going out to restaurants in town. You cannot flush toilet paper which is a big drawback. Maybe mid week cleaning should be included. Having The van was a big plus. Gracias!

Loreto…our happy place
We traveled with family and friend. It was nice having the casita so our friend had his own space when needed. The property has great outdoor spaces!! Places one can go and get away from activities and relax. Pool was perfect. Beach in front of the house was wonderful. Great place for kids to play in the calm water. We would stay again.

Great Time in Loreto
Communication was great, every question I had was answered quickly. The house was wonderful, all the beds were very comfortable, we enjoyed the pool and sitting on the patio enjoying some cold refreshments watching the sun set with the ocean breeze blowing. The one suggestion I would recommend for anyone staying here, have Lucy and her granddaughter cook for you, it was wonderful! We had 8 adults' staying and it was very comfortable. We will be back for sure.

Casa de Vista Hermosa
We had a fun stay in Loreto. House is secure and safe in a gated compound. Peter and Ron were great hosts and provided a lot of helpful information. They also arranged a cooking class for the girls and checked in with us by text regularly to make sure all went well. House was well stocked, had purified water and Casita and minivan worked out perfect for our group of six. Fishing was good and Giggling Dolphin restaurant cooked our fish 3 ways and we had a delicious and fun dinner there. One note, you can't put toilet paper in the toilets in the main house.

A great place to stay right on the beach . We had 8 adults and enjoyed cooking in, eating out in town, cooling off in the pool and listening to the surf. A mini van was included for use around town. Peter, the property manager,had a very complete booklet about the operation of the house, places to see, restaurants, and was there for us when we needed anything.

This is a must for a larger group. Although the pool isn’t as big as we would have liked, the deck and all accessories were great. Location was perfect to get around and having the use of the van was a bonus. Fully equipped with all necessities such as paper towels, toilet paper, etc. no need to buy anything except for food and drinks. Great local information on the areas doings and Peter and Ron property manager’s are available for information on everything. We will definitely be looking into coming back in the future.

I don't usually give all 5 star reviews but this house and hosts deserve it. The property is beautiful. Everything worked, (which is rare) and the location is perfect. Right on the beach with an awesome view of the Sea of Cortez and the Carmen Island. The lap pool is perfect for swimming and cooling off and the decks and patios are great. Even before the trip, the hosts were always ready to help and point us in the right direction on events and guides to use. All and all the perfect spot for a family vacation.

Super convenient and spacious
We had a great stay. The property is a bit older, but well cared for and stocked. It has a wonderful View of the gulf and awesome sunrises. The house sits on a public beach, which means some late night noise and passing people. The landscaping around the home is really well done with mature plants, trees, etc.. And the use of Jeep to make runs to store very helpful. Lots of amenities to this rental that you do not find elsewhere. I would stay here again…with some headphones to drown out the late night noise. ;)

Absolutely Beautiful Property!
This beach-front home is amazing and was the perfect way to end our Loreto sea kayak and whale watching adventures for a group of 8 women. Communication with Paula was extraordinary throughout. The home is beautiful, extremely comfortable, and had everything needed for our stay. Special thanks to Scotty for doing extra grocery shopping for us in advance and taking such good care of us. The home is very spacious and we loved the various outside areas for relaxing. Beds were very comfortable with quality linens and bathrooms had everything you may have forgotten to pack. We loved lounging by the pool, yet having the beach just footsteps away. The short walk to town was pleasant and having the jeep available was a bonus. We highly recommend staying at Paula's place in Loreto and hope to return again in the future. This was an amazing 5-star experience for our group.

Wonderful Property
The previous reviews pretty much summarize this property and its many special features. Upon arrival, it was fun to check out all the great home decor including the colorful pottery in the kitchen. We loved being welcomed with fruit, beer, bread and many other food items in the kitchen. Having the use of Paula and Shaw's jeep plus all of Paula's recommendations for transport, restaurants and tours made our stay glorious and well beyond the usual VRBO rental. Shaw even made our first night's dinner reservations! My husband and I are birders so it was a treat to see birds right outside the many large windows and the short walk to the estuary. This place does not disappoint!

Paula rocks
The VRBO question I am asked to answer is to summarize my overall impression of the property, but I would rather give my opinion! This is a great property. Of course it helps to have blue skies and warm weather every day when coming from western Montana in January, but it truly was perfect for our group of six adults and five grandkids (ages four and under). We rented both Casa and Casita. Paula thought of everything from sufficient paper products and toiletries to all the baby gear and little kids' toys one could want including pool floats and shovels/buckets to play in the sand. She scheduled chefs to cook for our large crowd, two of whom conveniently delivered dinner to the front gate upon our request. She scheduled delivery of kayaks and a paddle board for us. She would have scheduled our covid testing to return to the US, if needed. The lovely large courtyard between Casa and Casita was ideal for confining mobile kids. Paula turned up the heat in the lap pool so it would be more comfortable for the kids. I congratulated myself on bringing little kids' wet suits and neoprene caps to extend their enjoyment of the pool. Even though we didn't do a lot of touristy things due to kids napping at different times, every day was wonderful in such a beautiful place. We felt totally pampered and enjoyed every minute!

DON'T DELAY. BOOK TODAY!
The property is exactly as advertised, i.e., luxurious and beachfront. In addition, the lap pool is pristine; the kitchen boasts every cooking gadget you could want and high-end equipment; the view of the Sea of Cortez from the two upper sitting areas is both peaceful and spectacular, especially at night under the stars; the manual transmission jeep that comes with the rental is extremely convenient for trips to town, about a mile away. But, best of all, Paula the owner who has lived in Loreto for many years has up-to-the-minute information on myriad restaurants, dive operations and companies that offer thrilling excursions (by horse or van). She is an outstanding resource, generous with her knowledge of Loreto.

Paula is an amazing amazing hostess who thought of everything for us! From the food in the refrigerator to the Loreto Guide Booklet (written by Paula) to the use of the jeep in town, Paula thinks of everything! The property itself is just so beautiful and idyllic - you can't not have a magical experience! And with the jeep we were able to get everywhere we needed to go in town, had an incredible boating excursion out to Coronado Island, and if it's further out from town Paula has lots of taxi guides who can take you where you need to go. Check in and out was super smooth with Scotty. Comfortable beds, quiet location. Hope to come back with the family some day for whale watching!

The only way to improve in this vacation would have been to extend it. We found it very hard to leave. Paula and Shaw were beyond generous and we are fortunate to have met them. The property is actually even better than the photos make it appear, with great spaces for all of our family to be together (or apart) as the incredible days marched by. Loreto was exactly as we expected, as well, and will certainly be back. When we do return, it will be with hopes that this perfect beach home is still available.

Fabulous gem, quiet, beautiful views!
Every part of our stay and Loretto was perfect. The property is gorgeous with a beautiful layout and a wonderful location right on the sea of Cortez but slightly off the beaten track of the town, making it more peaceful. South of the house is a long stretch of beach which is uninhabited and great for running and walking. The kids loved the pool and the access to clean soft sand and beach. The linens and towels were great quality and the kitchen is set upWith top quality cooking utensils. Paula, the host, went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. She hooked us up with a private chef and told us about which tours and activities to do which made for a stress-free vacation. We felt so grateful to be able to relax in such a wonderful place.

A little piece of paradise
Just spent 5 days in the most perfect vacation rental we’ve ever stayed at. The photos do no justice to the real beauty of the house and location. From the moment we walked into the house we knew we had made the right choice for our stay and celebration of my 60th birthday. The photos and description drew me to the home, but my correspondence with Paula is what made my mind up of what house we were going to stay at in Loreto! Paula answered every question we had promptly and offered up ideas to make our stay the most enjoyable it could be. Paula and her Husband Shaw were the best hosts we’ve ever had and went above and beyond making our stay not only in their home but in Loreto the best it could be. They had a very comprehensive list of restaurants, tours, rentals and even included a great detailed hand drawn map with all the locations numbered to correspond to the list. We were already planning our next stay at Paula and Shaws fantastic Casa on the beach in Loreto even before we made it to the airport on our way home. Next time it will be for at least 10 days.
