The Best Hotels Near Villa Santa Cruz, by the Record
-
Ten rooms, each with a full-wall mural of a colonial scene that looks like time stopped mid-afternoon. This boutique hotel in the artsy pueblo mágico of Todos Santos sits just off the main drag, its public spaces wrapped in ivy-covered brickwork and its interiors done up in dark wood and gilt-framed mirrors. It holds a Michelin Key, and it makes a quiet case for the hour's drive north from Cabo.
-
Three rooms in a whitewashed building off the beach road north of Todos Santos, and each one climbs to a private rooftop terrace with a sea view. This small boutique hotel, run by a Mexican couple who fell hard for Baja on a road trip, keeps things spare and pale, with wood furnishings and rain showers. The grounds are desert-garden quiet, and after dark the circular concrete fire pit under open sky is the obvious place to be.
-
Rooms and suites arranged around a central pool on the Pacific coast of Baja, Hotel San Cristóbal is Bunkhouse's first move outside Texas, and it lands in Todos Santos at a lucky moment, before the town fully discovers itself. The setup is beach-casual with a boutique edge, the bar and restaurant carry the social life since the town mostly doesn't, and the agenda outside is surfing or whale-watching. It holds a Michelin Key.
-
A colonial villa from the early 1900s on La Paz's Malecón boardwalk, renovated by Grupo Habita into a boutique hotel where weathered brick walls face a crisp modern structure of balconies and patios. Garden rooms are tucked and cozy; upper-floor suites get palatial without tipping into fuss. The location is a quiet argument for skipping Los Cabos altogether, with the best of a genuinely charming city starting right outside the door.
