“Comfortable & clean casitas, wonderful owner, fantastic manager, great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012

We recently stayed at El Tiburon Casitas for 12 days. We rented two of the casitas and found them to be in impeccable condition, with comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchens, and wifi. We originally were going to spend some of our vacation in Mulege, but had to cancel that part of the trip at literally the last minute due to damage from Hurricane Paul. Liz went out of her way to help rearrange our trip and extend our stay in Loreto at El Tiburon Casitas. Her manager, Ivan, took us on two expeditions into the mountains for desert hikes and pictograph viewing. He also cooked us a gourmet birthday dinner one evening. We flew down with our folding sea kayaks and Ivan was also very helpful in showing us good locations for paddling and snorkeling. We had a great time at El Tiburon Casitas and will certainly be returning.

“Great stay at Casitas Tiburon”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 17, 2012

We just returned from our stay in Loreto. I would highly recommend Casitas Tiburon. The casitas are spotless and well maintained. They were also nicely appointed with everything we needed. Liz and her staff were most helpful and knowledgeable. The Casitas are conveniently located a short walk from both the malecon and the town square. We will return.

“Awesome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 22, 2012

Just returned from another great stay with "Liz" at El Tiburon Casitas. This time we rented all four units and had the palapa and pool all to ourselves!! The casitas were spotless, beautifully decorated and had all the amenities required.
The town square, boat harbor and all of the great restaurants and shops are a short walk away.
Liz was the consummate hostess, sharing her knowledge of the best snorkling, dining and local areas of interest.
Stay once at El Tiburon and I promise you, you'll be back.

Room Tip: Literally everyone of these Casitas has it's own charm.

“5 star casitas and vacation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 21, 2012

Have been to loreto six or seven times and stayed at two other places ,Then we found El Tiboron Casitas and would not think of staying any place else. The casitas are clean, safe and are 5 min walk to town center.
El Tiburon does not have a fittness center but does provide bicycles and is located where guests can walk, jog and or use the swimming pool.

Room Tip: All casitas are great

“Loreto, Mexico”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 18, 2012

Our second trip to Loreto was even more enjoyable that the first. These casitas are ideally located just one short block from the town square, the harbor and the malecon. (main avenue along the sea) The rooms were spotless and very well equipped and maintained. The owner, Liz, was extremely helpful. We felt safe jogging early in the morning and walking along the malecon late at night. The locals were very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend El Tiburon to anyone visiting Loreto.

Room Tip: All the rooms are great and surround the quiet pool area.
