suites and villas. The Western U.S. is a key market, with members

coming from areas such as California, Oregon, Arizona, and Texas.

“We can attribute the success of our 100-percent Mexican

approach to product, service, and amenities to very specific factors,”

adds Macias. “We have always been committed to being in the fore-

front of Mexican design and decor, with an ongoing improvement and

evolution of that, along with excellence in service and product. Along

the way, we have taken great care to develop our people and achieve

loyalty to the product and experience that only we can offer.”

Another point of distinction for Hacienda Encantada is its Dine Out

With Privileges program. Giving members the opportunity to enjoy

the resort’s specialty restaurants, the all-inclusive option also enables

them to sample a variety of local restaurants within the Cabo San Lucas

Marina Golden Zone (with transportation included).

All-Adult Luxury

Opened in April 2018, Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos is the first

adults-only, luxury all-inclusive in the destination, located between

San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas, just 15 miles from the Los

Cabos airport. The resort is the brand’s second property, following the

success of Palace Resorts’ flagship Le Blanc Spa Resort Cancún.

According to Gibran Chapur, executive vice president of Palace

Resorts, the company continues to grow its most coveted brand,

which makes sense in a destination such as Los Cabos, known for

world-renowned luxurious offerings, untouched beauty, and impressive

landscapes. Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos features 374 guest rooms

and suites, designed with cool shades of white and plush furnishings.

Luxury-level amenities include butler service, a nightly aromather-

apy menu and turn-down, and a pillow menu. There are four beachfront

pools and a spa with hydrotherapy treatments. On-site are six bars and

seven signature restaurants, including Lumiere, with a seven-course

French-fusion tasting menu paired with signature wines.

Vacation ownership here, at one of Los Cabos’ newest resorts, is

through Palace Elite, Palace Resorts’ signature vacation club. Members

experience an oasis of opulence and taste a higher standard of culinary

excellence. At Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos, the goal is for luxury to

always be standard and unforgettable.

The success of luxury-level hotels and timeshare resorts such as

Grand Solmar at Rancho San Lucas, Hacienda Encantada Resort & Spa,

and Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos continue to foster Los Cabos,

Mexico, as a favored destination for resort and timeshare development

and investment — and as one of the top, most unrivaled travel destina-

tions in the country — for years to come.
