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.
