Family Vacation
My husband and I planned a 1st time ever family vacation to Mexico for us and our daughter and our three teenage granddaughters. We wanted it to be truly memorable. Harvey's Hacienda did not disappoint. The house set-up was perfect (with 3 large bedrooms) and a great common area for lounging. The pool access was right off the back door; the pool was fantastic and large enough for all to share. We would highly recommend staying at Harvey's Hacienda to any larger family.

Exactly what everyone wanted
This place was awesome. The pool is right outside the door, the sea is 1 block away. We had a couple of issues while were staying there but all were addressed right away. The hot water tank quit working in the afternoon. Ivan, the property manager, had it fixed the next day. Impressive. Everything was excellent.

Wonderful stay
Great property and location. Would recommend renting a car because cabs are expensive and the grocery store at the community will most probably not have all you want. Great restaurants as well Azul and ocotillo great for dinner - La sirena and the bistro great for coffee and lunch.

Great location. Great host. Beautiful views. Well maintained. Everyone is very nice in the community. Plenty of options for eating and drinking (more in the afternoon than morning). Loreto downtown was also a great option for breakfast lunch and dinner. Panga boat around Coronado island was awesome.

Great first visit to Loreto
Great stay and a great trip. The house was perfect for our family of 5. Plenty of room and privacy. Teenagers got the upstairs room and en suite bath where they could have a little freedom and stay up later than the rest of us. House was clean and well stocked. Loreto Bay was quiet and peaceful. Lots of fun swimming, boating, hiking and eating. Thanks Elaine for being a great host and helping us rest and recharge.

Great VRBO listing…actually quite tranquil and beautiful. The water fountain is indeed a great asset as is the close proximity to the pool. Absolutely effortless peace and tranquility. close to the airport and town but far enough away to avoid unnecessary crowds.

Wonderful accommodation and access to water. The only disappointment was that it was not in Loreto proper but that was due to my own ignorance of the difference between Loreto and Loreto Bay. If a safe gringo-friendly environment in the sun is what you are looking for this place is perfect.

Great Location
Harvey's Hacienda was a great place to stay in Loreto, it was a great location to the pool, short distance to the beach, and short walk to store and restaurants. The property had all the appliances we needed to cook in the kitchen and great barbeque in the patio deck. The house was very clean, there were lots of beach towels, pool toys, and a great fire pit in the patio deck. We enjoyed after dinner drinks on the patio deck. Elaine was wonderful to answer our questions before we got there and gave us a list of great places to eat and shop. She also recommended site seeing tours. Thank you for everything, we had a great time with our family. We will come back.

Harvey's Hacienda was perfect in everyway. It gave us the real feeling of living in Loreto Bay. The home is beautiful and had everything we could need. The location was perfect for walking in the neighborhood, walking to the beach and visiting the local restaurants, and the pool was right outside the door. Elaine, the host, was wonderful before, during and after our trip. She checked in and made sure we had everything we needed. The hacienda was so cute!! It had plenty of space for all of us and was just completely relaxing. We enjoyed using the bbq on the 2nd floor patio. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean and tidy for us. My son loved sitting in the hammocks. Thank you Elaine for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back soon!!

Fabulous Home in Loreto
My wife and I stayed at Harvey’s Hacienda 5 nights in April. Elaine and her husband were extremely helpful in answering all of our questions and providing restaurant, fishing, and other recommendations. The home is spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked for anyone who enjoys preparing their own meals. My wife wants me to mention that there many lovely details such as nice clothes hangers and plenty of towel bars. The location is outstanding. The pool is right out the back doorway and the ocean is a short walk away. We will be coming back. Ken and Sara

Clean nicely appointed villa in great location
Truly enjoyed our time in the Loreto villa. Nicely appointed villa right next to the community pool. The managers helped with the fire pit to work plus got us jugs of water, taxi drivers, maid service etc. The owner checked with us a couple times to make sure that the villa was in good order. Would highly recommend Loreto Bay and this villa. The weekly rate for golf is a good deal and many great restaurants in the area.

Great Casa, with a few hiccups!
The casa was great, clean, good location, well equipped . The reason I did not give 5 stars was because the extra amenities, bikes, firepit and BBQ ,were not in working order. The on site PM were very helpful in trying to rectify,but it put a damper on the activities, I would recommend having a information packet available at the Casa. We didn't find the paddle boards until the last part of our trip!

Please accept our apology for the challenges with some of our casa's added perks during your stay. We understand your frustration with those details. Our villa information guide is sent one week or more prior to your stay, and must not have made it to your inbox. When we arrived at the house after you, we found the guide scattered in various drawers. Your feedback will help us work with our property managers to ensure that the guide is in good order and accessible before each guest's arrival. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future!

This was our 3rd trip to Loreto and our first stay in this villa. The location is perfect. Close to everything!

A paradise within paradise
This home is perfect for the vacationing family. The location is excellent and the set up is very accommodating. The house boasts a very spacious living space, 3 large rooms, 3 large bathrooms (bath and shower in each), outdoor fireplace for when the sun goes down, a cabinet of games (great for our family!! ~ read: parents get a bit of a sleep in. lol), paddle boards, hammocks to chill out in, kitchen with pretty much any pot / pan / bowl you will need if you are going to eat in, and wifi. It feels like a home away from home...but next to a pool and a beach! Restaurants and other amenities are just steps away and the Loreto Bay area is so fun and pleasant to explore. Loved our time here and we will be back!

This special place has it all!
Highly recommended get-a-away! The house is lovely and quite unique. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and overall living areas are spacious, clean and beautiful, and they all revolve around an open courtyard with a fountain right in the center which kept noises from coming in and/or going out. The back/kitchen area opens up just steps away from the community pool, which in its own right is very beautiful too. It was so nice to be so close to make it easy to re-fresh anything we needed when we played out there, and we got a kick out of the Zumba water classes that took place a few of the mornings we were there too. The community is very friendly, clean and felt quite safe. It's as if they've built an oasis in the middle of nowhere! There are a few small markets that have more than enough supplies to keep you going through the week, restaurants for the times you don't feel like cooking, the use of the hotel and it's fun pool and amenities just across the courtyard and right on the beach for a change of venue, security guards that ride and walk around giving you the feeling of safety, and lots of other friendly, frequent travelers who were always happy to help when we needed it. And while this oasis isn't in the town of Loreto, itself, (it's actually Nopolo) it is only a short cab ride away should you want to wander that lovely town center as a day trip. The owners were very helpful as was the property manager with any and all information we could have needed from the week before our travels right up to the minute we landed. We'll look forward to staying again for another Winter trip for sure!
