Gretchen was a warm and welcoming host! The casita was clean, nicely decorated, with conveniences like beach towels, snorkeling equipment and paddle boards. Beach is a little rocky and water pressure is lower but to be expected in Mexico. Convenient to get to all tours and downtown. Actual final cost is about 35% higher than per night booking rate from additional guests and cleaning fees. Sea of Cortez is beautiful and Loreto is a great laid back relaxing town

Awesome stay! The mountain and ocean views were great, pool/patio area and plants very nice, and direct beach access great. Super nice to be able to go for a beach walk or paddleboard or kayak right from the place and then jump in the pool. Bedrooms and kitchen very nice and beds super comfy.

Perfect Oceanfront Getaway

Casa Bell is a beautiful oceanfront home with a very well appointed guest casita. Viewing the sunrise over the sea from your bedroom suite, a swimming pool, stepping right onto the beach, and a courtyard Ramada with fireplace all make this home uniquely special. Gretchen’s guest casita is everything as listed - & more.

Great rental property

We spent 7 nights at this property and were very satisfied with the casita. The beds were comfortable, the TV channel selection was good, and the kitchen was well stocked. It is a 15 minute walk to the start of the Malecon and about 25-30 minutes to the plaza where many of the restaurants are located. A car (or bicycles) is a good idea for this location.
