Peaceful, private sanctuary
This lovely casita was exactly what my husband and I sought: privacy, quiet, comfort, and convenience. There are two villas onsite, but visually separate when using your patio. The pool area is capacious for only two villas, plenty of room for everyone, both in sun and shade. We slept great because it was so wonderfully quiet in that residential part of Loreto. The villa was outfitted with everything, absolutely everything you could think of, in the kitchen, in the bath, in the bedroom. The littlest touches showed that designing and furnishing these casitas was a labor of love. The pool was glorious after a day of sunny adventure and the bed was so comfy. Everything was IMMACULATE. Doug is an onsite, but hands-off owner, but friendly and very available. We would highly recommend.

Comfy Villa
Top of the list is a cozy patio and heated inviting pool. The villa was very comfortable and perfect for our 3 week stay. Very attractive decor and beautiful landscaping and private and safe environment. All amenities provided. Thanks for a 5 star stay!

Wonderful!
Doug and Hope were excellent hosts and the casita was immaculate. They have done a fantastic job making a comfortable and restful environment for guests. The pool area is lovely and has lots of areas to sit in the sun or escape from the sun. The pool itself is small but beautiful and a great temperature. So many thoughtful details - truly one of the very nicest places we have stayed.

About the host

My wife and I left our lives in the US and came to Loreto Mexico where we bought a property and built a boutique resort. We have documented our entire journey on our Youtube channel so you can watch how this magical place came to be.

Why they chose this property

We love the magical town of Loreto, Mexico, which is one of only two Pueblos Magicos in Baja. We are located at the North end of the El Jaral Neighborhood (or Colonia). We are a 2 minute walk (600ft) from the beach. We are in an area of multi million dollar homes and have a 7 acre pasture next to our property with a resident horse and donkey who love treats. We love the calm vibe in this part of town.

What makes this property unique

The little details stand out at Pufferfish Villas. We have tried to provide everything that you might want during your stay. We have amenities that are rare in Loreto and in most Mexico rentals like a year round heated pool, gas firepit, and Villas packed with everything you need to stay a couple days or a month!
