What's Great
National Geographic Says...
"The cornflower-blue former plantation evokes the belle epoque of southeastern Mexico. Proximity to archaeological sites at Uxmal and Oxkintok take you back further still; relax, there is also high-speed Internet. Wander into nearby caverns that were once sacrificial sites. Try an ancient Maya spa treatment in the spa."

Esperanza Resort
Carretera Transpeninsular Km 7 Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

From $675 per night

A place where sun-sea-sky and earth join as one to form a tropical oasis like no other - a place called Esperanza.

What's Great
Travel + Leisure says... "Desert Escape These days, locals refer to Mexico’s Baja Peninsula as La Frontera, the frontier, because it remains largely undeveloped, except for the peninsula’s tip at Los Cabos, where the desert blooms with luxe resorts. But you can still find a quiet spot to relax with a chilly Pacifico beer and a succulent shrimp taco. Stay at the recently renovated, 56-room Esperanza, where the Technicolor sunsets look digitally enhanced. Escape to the resort’s hidden garden by the sea, with a view of humpback whales migrating right offshore. Don’t miss a tasting of Mexico’s Baja, Querétaro, and Coahuila wines at El Restaurante. -50 Best Romantic Getaways and "Rooms to Book: All have ocean views, but the Palapa Spa casitas add infinity-edge tubs to the deal." -From www.travelandleisure.com
