Mexican by Design
The four-diamond Hacienda Encantada Resort and Spa in Cabo San
Lucas emerges as unique and larger than life in its 100-percent Mexican
approach to luxury, design, and service. As charming and enchanted a
treasure as its name in Spanish implies, the opulent resort is designed
to emulate the large, stately mansions of Mexico’s past, but with a con-
temporary twist, amidst the spectacular beauty and splendor of the
Baja California Sur peninsula.
Talavera Mexican tile murals and Spanish colonial fountains echo
similar aesthetics at Hacienda Encantada’s common areas. Resort
accommodations also feature rich accents in earth tones, luxurious
hand-embroidered pillows, and woven textile rugs. Handmade wooden
furniture, traditional paintings, and vibrant artwork — all by Mexican
artisans — populate every corner and every unit of the resort. A combi-
nation of elegance, modernity, and distinct designs creates a warm
atmosphere with all the comforts of home.
“This is our signature look and signature identity. It’s what makes our
experience for our members so special,” says Gabriel Macias Dueñas,
president and CEO of Mexico Grand Hotels, development company for
Hacienda Encantada.

expansion plan with 270 units ranging from studios to multi-bedroom
