The pool at Esperanza overlooks
the resort’s secluded beach cove.
For over seven years, Jerri Lynn Walker has put her extensive
knowledge of Baja to the test, working in sales for Los Cabos’
Esperanza, the 57-room resort whose spa was ranked number one in
the world by Conde Nast Traveler this year. While the resort has
received a facelift, Los Cabos is undergoing a makeover all its
own.
Some may not know that San Jose del Cabo has a marina.
Is it attracting a new clientele?
Well, since the original marina, Marina Cabo San Lucas, has no
more slips available, I think that the new 500-slip marina in San
Jose del Cabo is going to reach out further to the elite traveler
and fisherman. Anglers like the location because it’s closer to
Gordo Banks, and the new marina, Puerto Los Cabos, caters to luxury
megayachts. There’s also going to be an authentic town plaza,
shopping, restaurants and a marketplace alongside the marina. It
will really bring additional exposure to the destination as a
whole.
With such changes, how is Esperanza keeping
current?
In early December 2007, we created one-bedroom suites and the
[more than 2,000-square-foot] penthouse suite, reconfigured the
luxury suites and added an infinity-edge Jacuzzi to the majority of
our rooms. Eight treatment rooms one of which is a couple’s room
and an expanded spa treatment menu were also part of our recent
upgrade.
What advice do you have for clients who only have a
couple of days to vacation?
If you’re just looking to relax, there’s really no need to look
further than the resort’s pool, spa and restaurants. Our
full-service resort has a variety of unique activities including a
Cocina del Sol cooking class, Mexican Wine Journey program, art
classes and private art gallery tours in San Jose del Cabo.
What other activities are within close
proximity?
Two championship golf courses are within a five-minute drive,
and we’re only about a 10-minute drive from Cabo San Lucas, where
guests can enjoy just about any type of water activity, from
sailing to jet-skiing even swimming with the dolphins.
