Luxury Resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico Voted One of the “Top Resorts in Mexico” and Awarded “Best Hotel Spa in the World”

As we are starting to count the last days of the year 2012, we are looking at our achievements, which make us proud of this passing year. Capella Pedregal Resort & Residences, located in Pedregal de Cabo San Lucas, has been a shining star since it’s opening in 2009. This is just one of the prestigious awards Capella Pedregal received this year, and of which we are very proud.

Cabo San Lucas’ premier resort, Capella Pedregal, has been honored with two of Travel + Leisure 2012 World’s Best Awards, being named one of the “Top Resorts in Mexico” and the “Best Hotel Spa in the World”.  Capella Pedregal joins an elite group of hotels, destinations, and companies honored by Travel + Leisure in the annual World’s Best Awards readers’ survey.  Travel + Leisure has been conducting its World’s Best Awards survey for the past seventeen years.

Dedicating itself to personalized service and unparalleled luxury, Capella Pedregal is set alongside Pedregal Mountain, yet only a five-minute walk from downtown Cabo San Lucas.  The resort, accessible only through a private tunnel entrance in Pedregal Mountain, features 96 rooms and suites, each with one or two private pools, spread across a 24-acre estate that offers spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean.

“We are incredibly proud of Capella Pedregal’s exceptional staff,” says CEO and Chairman, Capella Hotels and Resorts, Horst Schulze. “Without a doubt, it is their remarkable dedication to the needs of guests that has made us one of Travel + Leisure’s ‘Top Resorts in Mexico’ and its Auriga spa the ‘Best Hotel Spa in the World’.”

The resort’s acclaimed Auriga Spa is home to eight treatment ‘pods’ which float on a private pool surrounded by waterfalls, encouraging guests to swim to their treatment rooms.  Designed by renowned spa designer, Sylvia Sepielli, the 12,000-square foot spa features treatments created by UK-based Organic Pharmacy and reflects the different phases of the moon, based on the energies of the lunar cycle.  Additional amenities include consultations with a Curandera, a local healer who hand-crafts healing tonics from local herbs, as well as complimentary training sessions.

Under the tutelage of Marco Bustamante, Capella Pedregal’s three distinctive dining establishments feature refined, traditional Mexican dishes which evoke a true ‘Baja’ feel. The signature Don Manuel’s restaurant is named after the hotel owner’s family patriarch and is located at the heart of the resort.  Cuisine at Don Manuel’s uses local organic ingredients grown specifically for the resort, prepared using modern interpretations of old world techniques. El Farallón, Spanish for “a rock that comes out of the ocean,” is a sophisticated restaurant where fresh fish specialties are served in an alfresco setting suspended over the ocean. This casual seafood venue features a “catch of the day” menu enabling guests to choose from fresh fish caught from local waters.  The Beach Club is an informal, pool-side dining venue serving Baja coastal favorites.
