playa santa inez
we are new to baja but have fallen in love so please forgive us if we ask a few stupid questions . as well as los naranjos we are also looking at a
lot in a small remote subdivision near the middle of playa santa inez . if we build a small casita there will we be getting ripped off continuously .
playa santa innes is 6 miles north of mulege .

Hi, Moosey
If you're speaking of Los Naranjos and Playa Santa Inez near Mulege you have many options.
Let us know.

of our "secret" beaches, it's a long grind in but worth it once ya get in there...gotta feeling one of the the failing ranchos in the area is feeling
the pinch....this is a prime piece of property with no amenities except beauty...this is a special and beautiful stretch of beach...i have spent many
a blissful hour on that beach with my kindle nestled under my canopied beach chair while my woman and dawg roamed the unfettered beach...

Have camped at Playa Santa Inez in the past and it's an amazing pristine semi secret beach . I would think lots would be .. $$$.

If you are new to Baja, don't buy anything. Rent first.

Unless I missed something, if one were to buy a lot and build a casita on Inez they would be the only casita there... Lots of beach, sand dunes etc
but no residents unless they are really well hidden... if you want any interaction then you need to be around Chivato or one of the beaches south of
town..
And after buying first and living through the trials and tribulations among other things, I am apt to agree,, rent for awhile and see where you like
to be.. But also there are some bargains to be had around the area if you do your due diligence... Great bunch of very active and friendly folks...

If there is a subdivision on that beach it is well hidden. A couple of times over the past couple of decades there have been some survey stakes
marking something but that is the most development I have seen there unless it has happened in the past few months. We rarely see anyone else on that
beach maybe because the road is a bit bad in places. Mulegemichael described exactly why we like to go there.

I didn't see when you are planning to be in the Mulege area... We would certainly welcome you and would love to meet you when you get there... Even
with the hurricanes, etc.. Mulege remains somewhat of a paradise for most of us I believe... I know Mulegemicheal also and I know he would welcome you
too.. We will be heading south from Colorado in mid oct for the winter.. Both of us are in the flood zone but still manage to enjoy ourselves... huh?
mike?
safe travels folks....

There is or was a group of Mexicans that have a large area fenced off there. I have no idea what they're doing but they weren't in the least bit
friendly. I know a couple people that would be interested in selling their lots on that section of the bay. I would also suggest you camp out there
for awhile and see if you want to be that isolated.

there is a subdivision there about 30 lots all sold but a few resales available . its been there at least five years just no homes built .thats what
the stakes are about . very reasonable prices for waterfront i guess because of the remoteness .

any place in a remote area will be prone to theft....so the best option is to either have a caretaker or not leave any valuables there and shutter it
up tight when you are gone.

Beachfront lots and nothing built? Not even palapas or old RV's?
There could be some issues with ownership, or environmental agencies, or intimidation, or .......

This is why place name spelling is so important... There is no Santa Innes on any map... a double n in Spanish is not common either.
Since I asked, I see there was an edit, great! Yes, Playa Santa Inés is on the map, north of Mulegé.

I believe that area is governed and owned by the Ejido de San Lucas. Their rep in business dealings leaves something to be desired; better have an
Abogado (Mexican attorney) on your side for the paperwork IF you decide to buy. Also as was mentioned the road in is 5 or 6 miles of a sumbagun, you
can make it w/ truck and camper if slow, but any kind of tow vehicle, forget it. Gorgeous beach, but well known for rip-offs, so watch your stuff.
There's probably a reason for why nothing has been built out there (some superstructures have been started, now in ruin-state)... i think it's
probably due to the road in, and the remoteness.
Happy trails,
bb
