We were trying to find a hotel before making our way up from La Paz ( a 4 hour drive) After calling several places with no luck we pulled out our moon guide and called La Pinta ( now called the desert Inn) The rate was $90 a night and the website looked nice so I figured must be good.... more

I stayed at this hotel as part of a kayaking/camping package, for the first and last night. While it wasn't a "five star" experience, it was a lovely hotel. It was VERY clean (especially the bathroom), the room was beautiful, the bed was very comfortable, the staff was polite and helpful and the view from the room was incredible! If... more

My husband and I stayed at the Desert Inn and found it to be nice. It is not a 5 star hotel, more like a 4 star. It has a big pool and the beach view is wonderful. Our room was quite adequate, clean and we had a balcony that we sat on in the evenings. We weren't looking for... more

When we told people where we were staying they asked if we noticed the service was not very good - they said... more

After 10 years of using La Pinta (now the Desert Inn) for our sea kayaking groups in Loreto we have to say it's never been a great experience but now it's down right a terrible experience. In March of 2007 we had confirmed reservations from November of 2006 for 18 rooms at La Pinta yet when our groups arrived they... more
