Just an hour from the glitzy developments of Los Cabos in southern Baja is the artists' colony of Todos Santos. This oasis, bordered by unspoiled beaches on one side and the peaks of the Sierra de la Laguna on the other, is the location of the colonial boutique hotel Guaycura.
Hotel Guaycura offers 14 charming rooms and sweeping views of the mountains and the Pacific Ocean from its roof terrace and pool. It is housed in a mid-19th-century building that has, at various times, been the town’s school, post office, police station and a ladies’ art academy. Today the town attracts travellers looking to experience authentic Baja California.
A family owned and run hotel, Guaycura has an atmosphere that is homely but refined, with terracotta floors, dark wood furniture, ceiling frescoes and oversized arched windows. The hotel boasts a wonderful restaurant, El Jardin, where you can enjoy a delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is also a shaded courtyard and bar on the lower floor which feels like a relaxing oasis.
The hotel is located just one mile from the nearest beach and the ocean can be seen from the hotel's roof top. Guaycura's beach club, El Faro, is just 3 miles from the hotel, where you'll find everything you need for a lazy day with an ocean breeze and the hotel provides a shuttle service to and from the club for their guests. El Mirador, their hillside restaurant is also located just up the hill from the beach club, and grey whales can be seen in the waters during the right season.
When to visit
Spend at least one lazy day at El Faro beach club located just 3 miles from the hotel. Relax by the pool with Pacific views and treat yourself to a signature "sea-side massage" in one of the spa palapas for a perfect lazy day!
