April 22, 2013 By Chris Sands 1 Comment

Gonzo is a bit more of a philosophical influence, and reflects the hotel’s commitment to art, as well as a certain type of boutique bohemian attitude: edginess tempered by easygoing creature comforts. El Ganzo …

Why Los Cabos? Because it’s the Living End! by Lisa Green Have you ever flown to Baja and had to search the whole “Departures” board to find your flight? First you look under “C” for Cabo San Lucas , and it isn’t there. So you look at your ticket and see the SJD code and look under “S” for San Jose del Cabo and you still don’t find it. So now you scan the whole board and you ultimately find it – under “L” for Los Cabos! Why Los Cabos? The southern tip of the Baja peninsula is where the Sierra Laguna Mountain range meets the desert and then …
