Rancho Pescadero, or ‘Rancho’ as locals call it, has been the area’s most sought-after hotel since it was first opened with just 12 rooms by Founder/Owner Lisa Harper in 2009. Inspired during a camping stint on a secluded beach in El Pescadero, just outside the town of Todos Santos, Harper purchased the land, a former poblano chili farm since 1938, planted neem and palm trees and built a small Hacienda. She, in turn, created a relaxed and intuitive atmosphere that soon became a home away from home for guests for almost a decade before its temporary closure. Now, after a four-year respite, the beloved Rancho returns, debuting a long-awaited transformation that marks the arrival of a new level of beachfront luxury in Todos Santos – a prolific farming and fishing community and Pueblo Mágico known for its historic significance and unbridled local charm.

Edged between the desert and an expansive stretch of coastline, the 30-acre resort features 1,100 feet of ocean frontage with nine interconnected gardens, two farms and a citrus orchard that drive its culinary and wellness programs. There’s also a sea turtle hatchery, a tropical bird sanctuary, and hiking/biking paths throughout. Designed by Mexican architect Alejandra Templeton of Indigo Añil, a firm based in Los Cabos, the resort’s light and airy aesthetic is characterized by neutral tones and clean lines juxtaposed by playful textures that seamlessly blend with their surroundings. From the moment travelers arrive, Harper believes they ‘cross-over.’ An unmarked concrete entry serves as a portal to a paradise dripping in lush vegetation with vibrant artwork and bright pops of color at every turn, creating a childlike sense of wonder as visitors shed the weight of reality and settle in. From here, two paths – one made of brick and the other sand – invite guests to choose how they journey through the property.
