About this property

Furnished 1 Bdrm Apt #5 Next to Beach

Just a few steps to the beach along the Sea of Cortez, Apt 5 is a furnished 1 bdrm apt on 2nd floor with an ocean view from the bedroom; functional kitchen with utensils for cooking and dining. Living room has smart tv w/ Dishnet satellite; hi-speed wifi, smart tv connected to Dishnet satellite system, with lots of channels, including several HBO and ESPN. A quiet neighborhood of beautiful beach houses makes the walk along the beach safe and secure, a short distance to beach palapas and the Malecon (the walkway along the sea wall).
Enjoy preparing and eating your own meals in the fully functional kitchen, using the gas stove and oven, refrigerator. Eat on the built-in counter (which also doubles as a laptop workspace).
Bedroom has king-size bed, with end tables on each side, air conditioning and/or heating, chest of drawers, large storage closet. The modern bathroom has great water pressure and instant hot water to the shower.
The backyard is a common area which has a clean and comfortably heated swimming pool, surrounded by lounge chairs and tables. There is also an outdoor kitchen, gas barbecue and a large outdoor dining area, all available for use by guests. Above the outdoor kitchen is the gym area. There is a doorway from the pool area to a private outdoor garden and secure parking lot.
Located in a quiet neighborhood of beautiful beach houses makes the walk along the beach safe and secure, a short distance to beach palapas and the Malecon (the sea wall walkway). We also have several bikes and a two person kayak available for use by guests.
Riding bikes to the Loreto Plaza is a lot of fun, just a straight shot down Madero Street; and then to the old Loreto Mission, and to the Malecon, and then back home again. So many possibilities for enjoyment and having lots of fun!

Great hosts

Free Cappuccino's every morning by the pool, and a Sunday potluck allowed us to socialize with other guests. Steven and Adriana were great hosts and provided lots of local information, helped arrange tours and did their best to make our stay enjoyable.

Wonderful Loreto Gem

This was just what we needed to escape the rain and cold of the Northwest. We loved it so much we are coming back in January to spend a month. Steve and Adriana are super hosts and make you feel right at home.

Best Place Ever!

We were so lucky to get to stay at this lovely, welcoming apartment. Adriana & Steve were excellent hosts starting with Sunday night potluck and morning cappuccino ❤️. The apartment itself is immaculate, has everything you need and extremely comfortable. We were a 3 minute walk from the beach ( we flew with our SUPs) so we're able to board every day. The Centro and Malecon are a quick walk- it was nice to be a 10 minute walk from the busier area ( quiet evenings). The pool us lovely and warm and outdoor kitchen us a treat. I can't write enough good things and we are planning to be back in next year for a month. Thank you so much Adriana & Steve

Great stay!!

Beautiful apartment, just as described. Large shower with great water pressure. Great outdoor kitchen and beautiful swimming pool with shade covers. Many bikes available for your use, we rode bikes one mile into town every day. The hosts are friendly and helpful, we really appreciate the ride from the airport. If you need anything, just ask. It was a great stay in a very clean, quiet and modern apartment and we would stay again.

Exactly as expected

Adriana and Steven are wonderful hosts and owners who live on site. I was looking for simple accommodation not located in town. 6 room hotel, about 1.5 miles from town center. Clean and well equipped. Walkable to beach, groceries and town center. Like most places now in Mexico there are construction projects adjacent.

Loreto - April 2023

Great property. Steven and Adriana are the best hosts we have had at any property that we have stayed at. Super accommodating and very helpful, and great conversations with a cup of coffee in the mornings! The property has everything you need, including a double kayak, bikes, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. Great location, only a block and a half from the beach with excellent beach access. The one bedroom suite has everything you need, and the king bed is very comfortable. We are looking forward to going back to Loreto and staying with Steven and Andrea again.

Great Host/Good air conditioning/Plenty of hot water

I had great host, first night I experienced the bed was too hard for me and I asked the host if they had a mattress topper of some sort, they had one that was very satisfactory. There was a dog that seems to bark all hours of the night, which would normally bother me, but I was exhausted from all of the fishing I was doing. The place was very satisfactory. Plenty of hot water, good air conditioning. I would recommend.

Paradise at espiritu del mar

This is the perfect location to stay in Loreto. The hosts Steven and Adrianna went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The apartment we rented was equipped with everything needed for a week long stay. Anything that wasn't provided in our apartment was available in the amazing outdoor kitchen or pool area. The hosts provided a binder with general info about shopping and restaurants that was much appreciated. The pool was a perfect place to play cards and enjoy a beverage before dinner! The pool was warm and the view of the sea of Cortez from the terrace is beautiful. The beach is less than two blocks away! If staying here it is best to rent a car as the walk to downtown is about 15 minutes. Steven greeted us with amazing coffee in the mornings and recommended restaurants to try and general things to do around Loreto. We had booked a trip to visit dazante island during our stay but the company we booked through cancelled due to high winds forecasted. Steven and Adrianna were kind enough to take us to visit the island on their personal boat. They made our stay amazing and unforgettable. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Loreto area!

About the host

Hosted by Adriana Macias

Host profile image
In 2018, Adriana Macias and Steven Richkind moved to Loreto, Baja California Sur., They purchased a couple of lots near the beach and constructed a brand new apartment building which they named “Posada Espíritu Del Mar.” Translation: Spirit of the Sea Inn. The sea calls to their spirit.

Maybe it was the sunny climate of Loreto, or the experience of swimming in the warm, clear waters of the Sea of Cortez, then getting out of the Sea to lie on the white sandy beach, basking in the sun, or lying in the shade of a palapa, feeling the sea breeze, and breathing deeply the fresh sea air, that inspired Adriana and Steve to finally settle in Loreto and build their home by the Sea. Steve likes singing in Spanish, a famous Mexican song says, “El sol, la luna y las estrellas, en el mar la vida es mas sabrosa!” ( “The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars – by the Sea, life is sweeter.”)

Steve and Adriana both practice meditation when they wake up each morning. “What a gift! To be alive and to appreciate being alive with every breath!” Whether they are traveling or hosting guests at Posada Espiritu Del Mar, Steve and Adriana believe that Peace is something they share with the people they meet. Listening with compassion from the heart is so much easier when you are feeling peace; so too is sharing from the heart.

Steve enjoys playing his classical guitar, improvising his own music, and jamming with other musicians. So, if you play music, or enjoy listening to music, don't be shy. Feel free to bring your instrument, or make a request for him to play a song or two. Steve also enjoys serving complimentary espresso each morning from the outdoor kitchen, and having conversations about life. He says that he gave up being a lawyer and now he is a barista and philosopher. Steve also enjoys taking guests out on their boat, the Adriana I.

Steve and Adriana look forward to new adventures and to making new relationships with the guests who come stay at Posada Espiritu Del Mar.
