Cabo San Lucas, Mexico - 7 nights
Available February, April, December  - Saturday to Saturday 

Your luxury home for the week has miles of beach so private it it unlikely you will see another person as you stroll through the surf, across dunes and around majestic rock formations. There are no giant hotels, beach vendors, jet skis or loud bars…just miles and miles of peaceful serenity literally steps from your hammock. 

During whale season you will spot dozens of migrating whales so close you can hear them breach and tail-slap the Pacific—every day. Sunsets are breathtaking, the sound of waves harmonizing with breezes swaying the palms. Overhead, the night skies are so clear you could read a book by starlight. To the east, the Sierra de la Laguna mountains rise to over 6,000 feet, with arroyos and waterfalls to discover. 

SEVEN NIGHT ITINERARY

DAY ONE

Arrive in Los Cabos (SJD), where you will be met and taken to your private resort.

Once you have checked into your beautiful suite at, relax with a margarita around the pool or perhaps take a stroll on our beautiful and secluded beach.

Dinner class begins around 5pm each afternoon, with a break to have a glass of wine and toast the setting sun. We use the top chefs from local restaurants, each teaching you their personal favorites. Classes are very informal, with the emphasis on you learning wonderful dishes you can easily re-create at home.

DAY TWO

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 7:00am to 8:30am.

Planned Excursion: Leave the resort around 11:00 for a tour of Todos Santos, gallery visits and have lunch in town. Todos Santos is considered the "Sante Fe of Mexico" with dozens of artist galleries and studios.

Dinner Class begins at 5:00pm.

DAY THREE

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 7:00am to 8:30am.

Planned Excursion: Leaving around 10:30 we will return to Todos Santos for a more historic tour of homes, churches and the community centers and lifestyle. We will have lunch in Todos Santos at one of the traditional carnita stands (a local favorite), then head to Punta Lobos. Around 2:00 the local fishermen return to the beach in small open boats called pangas. It is quite a sight to see them ride the waves onto the beach at full speed, but the only way to get fresher fish is to catch it yourself and cook on-board. Here, we will buy fresh fish (generally yellowfin tuna, dorado or pargo) for tonight’s dinner.

Dinner Class begins at 5:00pm.

DAY FOUR

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 7:00am to 8:30am.

Planned Excursion: We will head to Pescadero where we will visit some organic farmers where they will explain techniques for growing crops in the desert, then we will pick our own veggies for dinner that night. Lunch will be served at the resort, then the afternoon is free.

Dinner classes begin at 5:00

DAY FIVE

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 7:00am to 8:30am.

Planned Excursion: Trip to San Vicente to visit with local potters and learn of the traditional way of life of the mountain ranchers in Baja. We will meet local potters in a true mountain oasis, and learn how Baja Californians have carved their homes and livings out the mountains for centuries. Our local chef and her family will give us a cooking class, sharing fantastic family recipes handed down through the years.

Dinner classes begin at 5:00pm

DAY SIX

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 6:30am to 8:30am.

Today is a lazy, "do whatever you want" kind of day. We’ll have vans available to take you to town, or you can just hang out and relax.

For lunch we will have a short class on tacos and ceviche for those who are around and still awake. 

Another option would be a day trip to the city of La Paz, an hour north on the Sea of Cortez. It is a wonderful city, with a beautiful walkway along the main street fronting LaPaz Bay. You can also take a small boat out to Los Islotes and swim with seals and sea lions in their natural habitat—it is extremely cool when playful seals dart around you while 30’ below the giant sea lions keep a watchful eye on their ‘ladies’. (This is an all-day trip and would leave at 8:00am and return by 5:00 for dinner class.

Dinner classes begin at 5:00 where tonight we will do something special, with a little Cajun attitude—your host is from New Orleans and loves to share his crawfish and corn chowder and blackened Dorado.

DAY SEVEN

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 7:00am to 8:30am.

Today is whale watching time! Around 10am we will head down to Cabo and go out into the Sea of Cortez where, at this time of year, we are guaranteed to get up-close and personal with migrating California Grey Whales. Sure, we see them from our patio all day long, but from the boat we’re able to get closer—nothing like seeing these majestic animals breech from less than fifty yards away. It is one the most memorable days you will ever have.

Dinner classes and our farewell dinner begin at 5:00.

DAY EIGHT

Breakfast served on the patio overlooking the Pacific from 7:00am to 8:30am.

Depart for Airport—back to reality!

Things to do instead ...

For those who would like an alternative to the planned excursion, the following are available every day of your visit:

*Fishing: Cabo is perhaps the most prolific sport-fishing destination in the world, with Marlin, tuna and Dorado (Mahi Mahi) biting year-round. We also have all the equipment for surf fishing right in our own backyard, along with plenty of instruction.

*Golf:  There are a dozen world-class golf courses around Cabo, with two or three courses always named in Golf Digests Top 100 of the World. We can provide tee times and transportation upon request.

*Hiking:  Want to do a little hiking and exploring? Four miles of pristine and secluded beach are at your doorstep, or you can follow the arroyos for about a mile to the foothills of the Sierra de la Laguna Mountains and climb small waterfalls and wade in streams for another ten miles.

*Feeling Adventuresome? For the surfers—or wannabes—Cerritos Beach is several miles north of us and is the premier surf break in Southern Baja. Lessons are available. How about an Ultra-light flight? Your pilot will pick you up on the beach in front of our resort and give you a birds-eye view of Baja and migrating whales. Like eating dust? Ten miles south, you can take 4-wheeler excursions into the arroyos and beaches. And the list is endless; just let us know what floats your boat and we’ll make it happen.

*Absolutely Nothing: This is our favorite option! Have a day-long siesta, watching the whales from your hammock while warm pacific breezes gently rock you under the palms. Lunch will be served on the beach.
