About the location:

Laid-back luxury meets bucket-list adventure on this undiscovered east cape of Los Cabo. A place for those with a taste for the undiscovered and the extraordinary, our East Cape location on Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula is the epicentre for adventure. Swim in the most expansive beach in Los Cabos or set sail from our private marina on the Sea of Cortez, coined “the aquarium of the world” by famed oceanographer Jacques Cousteau.
