Absolutely fabulous stay! The hosts were amazing, the kayaks & bikes that were available were really nice to have available, the location was a bit away from town but quiet and easily bikeable/walkable and the home was super comfortable!I am a superhost (10 years) on another platform and can be super picky so when I am thrilled with a stay it means it's a 15/10 experience. We hope to stay again in the coming years!

Our host was outstanding responding to any of our questions. The home is so well appointed and located steps from the beach. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and spices. This is an excellent property with absolutely stunning sunrises over the Sea of Cortez. It is a perfect spot for long stays.

Loved the house and location! House has all the amenities and extra touches that make it special. Proximity to the beach is literally steps away. Being able to see both the sun rise and set was amazing. We loved having the kayaks available and spent mostly mornings exploring the bay followed by a walk along the beach into town for lunch. Communication with the owner and property manager was very helpful and made for a stress free trip. Highly recommend this property for your next trip to Loreto!

Great place to stay in Loreto! Easy walk down the beach or road to the heart of Loreto. Very quiet neighborhood, no traffic to speak of. The house was more than adequate for our needs. All of our meals were either at local restaurants or hitting the nearby bakery in the morning for pastries. Booking was easy. There is a property manager who has an office within easy walking distance downtown. We didn’t get a chance to use the kayaks, but the cruiser bikes were a great way to get downtown we would stay here again!

Great house, great location

Casa Esueno was wonderful! Terri, who greeted us and gave us our keys upon arrival, was so warm and helpful. The house was comfortable and well appointed. It had everything we needed. We especially loved sitting on the decks with our coffee in the mornings and cocktails at sunset! I would suggest having a car if staying here, although not coompletely necessary. We did walk into town a few times along the beach, which was lovely! The only thing we didn't love was the amount of construction that was happening in the neighborhood. It could get noisy at times, but we generally weren't bothered by it too much. Overall this was a great place to stay in Loteto!
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Mar 2020
Thank you for your review of La Casa de Ensueno and your acknowledgement that Tere Muro, our local property manager, was warm and helpful. Great to hear you enjoyed the recently added roof top "Margarita" terrace and expanded front covered porch over-looking the Sea of Cortez. Terri and I just visited Loreto bringing a new leather sofa, love-seat and recliner for the sun-room. When you have time, check out our latest photo's we posted to VRBO. We suspect the new builds & pool that were under way in the neighborhood have a lot to do with the strong US dollar (US dollar was trading at nearly 18 Pesos to $1 US in January 2016). Best Wishes for Happy & Safe Travels!

Great home base for exploring Loreto

Bert and Terri's Casa de Ensueno is the perfect place to call home while in Loreto. It is just a short drive or bike ride from the city center, but far enough away from to truly allow for relaxation. The beach is just steps away, and there are enough kayaks for a group of 4 to hit the sea and do some ocean exploring. The home itself has all the amenities and more, including a great kitchen and living/dining room, amazing and warm showers (great after jumping into the ocean), cozy king beds, a perfect sun deck, and an amazing roof deck up top (perfect for sunrises/ sunsets). I do recommend that you get a rental car in loreto, as it makes getting into town (and around town on roadtrips / excursions) much more accessible. Bert and Terri and Tere (your contact in Loreto) made the whole process very easy and I would definitely recommend this place to all friends.

Peaceful stay

We just returned from Loreto and a great week seeing blue whales, grey whales, lovely mission, beautiful sunrises from the front terrace and sunsets from the rooftop area. The house was very warm and welcoming. Beds extremely comfortable. Everything we needed to prepare a meal. Unfortunately we were not able to make use of the kayaks due to windy conditions which just means we will have to return! Enjoyed walking into town saying hello to all the people and the dogs. We did rent a car which helped out when we went grocery shopping and allowed us to explore a little further. The wifi connection was very good. We would definitely recommend this house for a peaceful and relaxing stay. The owners were very prompt in responding to us and answering all questions and the manager was very helpful.

We Had an excellent stay in Loreto and our accommodations were perfect for our family of four.

The house we stayed in was in a secure area just far enough from town to meet our needs for privacy, but close enough to walk down beach to town. Beach and views from house were stunning. We found a rental car helpful in meeting our needs to explore the area. We loved the spacious areas in the home and the outside patios were relaxing with lots of lounge chairs and tables. The king sized beds in both large rooms were comfortable and quiet. Wonderful books, movies and accessories in the kitchen. Bert was timely in answering all our questions about Loreto . We came over Thanksgiving and it is an extremely quiet time to come to Loreto, end of the low season we were told. We pretty much had the beaches and town to ourselves. Locals were nice and never pressured us to buy anything. We enjoyed many of the restaurants that Bert recommended, with the La Picazon being our favorite. We highly recommended staying at La Casa Ensueno.

Average

The internet only worked off and on for the first five days. Property manager was here every day trying to fix it. Television has complicated remote which the laminated instructions baffled us as well as manager. Shower has no grab bars and for a 70 year old with Parkinson’s it’s pretty dangerous getting in and out as the edge has a huge step over ledge. No towel racks either. The sofa in the television area had no back cushion and they had put throw pillows there to help manage some back support but still very uncomfortable sitting with the back cushions missing. Also you need a car. We found white pet hair in the corners of the floor as if someone with a fog had been here. This neighborhood is the furthest away from town along a string of houses. You could walk along the beach but it’s a hike. Also the house is not on the beach side of the road as you’d imagine from the picture - it’s across the driveway. If you try and cancel with vrbo - even with insurance it’s almost impossible so beware. House was stocked well and deck sitting nice. The people renting the lower half are here a month and you can hear them talking easily upstairs. Not sure I’d rent here again.
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Apr 2020
Sorry to hear of your issues with the Internet - we get it through a dedicated phone line and have a wireless router that in the past has worked quite well (with occassional down times). We just upgraded the Satellite TV service which may have led to the instructions being out of date. We will be sure to update them as needed. We will provide feedback to the property manager regarding the pet hair. Our VRBO listing does indicate our Casa is not handi-capped accessible and pets allowed (pre-approval required).

Wonderful location and well appointed

This property is in a great location, a nice, 20 minute walk, or short bike ride down the beach to the lovely town of Loreto. We felt very safe and secure, and the condo had everything we needed. We bought groceries and had everything item necessary to prepare meals and drinks. The bikes and kayaks were great, and really added to our stay. The floor plan worked well for two couples. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom with sufficient privacy. It was a good stay, and we hope to return.

Great getaway

The house was a terrific base for me, my two teenage (nearly adult) sons and their two friends. We spent three days on the water fishing and diving different islands, escaping the brutal August heat of Loreto. The spacious house had air-conditioning and fans (which sometimes was all we wanted) was a perfect place for the evenings. We took morning and evening swims at the nearby gulf, and did a little kayaking, too. (One suggestion: Provide key for the big garage door as it's a bear to get the kayaks out from the side.) We had one massive nighttime storm that flooded the streets that lead to the house, but we wound our way around the neighborhoods to find dry passages in our rental car (bike riding was out of the question both because of the flooding and the heat...and one bike has a flat). Most restaurants in town were open and time and again we were the only non-locals. Tere was there as promised to open the house, and all in all a terrific time.

MAR DE COTES Loreto BCS

Usually head to the East Cape this time of year for our anniversary and always using VRBO however it had been 15 years since I visited Loreto. So glad we made that decision as the town really has kept is small town charm. The locals were so friendly and town was very clean. Every morning I would walk to the Malecon and throughout the town and you would see everyone cleaning the street and sidewalks. Lots of pride by local. La Casa de Ensueno was the perfect place to stay. Close to town however enough of distance to feel like you had your own private beach. Owner Bert and Terri were amazing in the communication and booking process. Casa had everything you could ask for "even a lime juicer for great margaritas" . Views of the mountains and morning sunrise was an event in itself. The refrigerator/freezer was large which I usually do not find in VRBO's in Baja. This was perfect since I fish and was able to freeze my catch. One item that the owners do that set this VRBO apart from my past experience is the overview of places to eat and things to do they send you after you book your stay. Thank you Bert and Terri Looking at calendar for next year On a side note when we travel to Baja we usually take items for local Orphanages. We found a local lady "Linda Turner" ( everyone seems to know her) who works with the children. Always nice to give back a little something.

Paradise Found!

COMPLETE relaxation attained within this casa for only short eight days! We have nothing but positive comments to give in this review. The home is: clean, spacious, comfortable, well-equipped, conveniently located, safe and provides a cozy atmosphere. Bert and Terri were accommodating, kind and easy to reach. Their property rental connection in Loreto is a delightful and charming native woman, Teri. She is friendly and sweet, but mostly, she immediately gave me a sense of calm as we entered a foreign place. Teri-you are an asset and hope to see you again. We spoke to some of the neighbors near the casa and locals in town. All were polite and helpful. We will go back, just not soon enough! First true vacation we have had that almost required a forced eviction (ha, ha). DO NOT PASS UP this Loreto, BCS, Mexico gem!
