Flora Farms Hillside Hay Lofts and Culinary Cottages

Flora Farms is a world unto itself.. What started off as a 25-acre organic farm has turned into one of the most sought after experiences in Mexico. Flora’s Field Kitchen is the nucleus of this vision. 

Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the middle of the garden makes the farm to table concept extra fast and fresh. The day begins hours before dawn as the staff begins baking the bread, harvesting the crops, and preparing the menu for the days’ guests, the owners, and all the private events and high society weddings that may occur on any given day.The harvesting of the greens continues throughout the day. All meats served at Flora’s Field Kitchen come from their nearby 150-acre ranch where animals are humanely raised on diets that do not include hormones or antibiotics. The experience gives you the feeling of wellness and balance that is incorporated into their menu and way of life. It is actually a simple formula, combine handmade food using farm-fresh ingredients.What they have accomplished on these 25 acres is amazing, every corner has been utilized yet feels open and not cramped. There are the little things like their own home made ice cream and there is the mind blowing Hillside hayloft and Culinary Cottages that encircle the edges of the property. These owners have access to the fields, private pools and privileges to the grounds and spa. We spent a joyous week in a two bedroom Hillside Hayloft. Being seasoned travelers did not diminish the awe we experienced upon walking into the villa. The attention to detail is apparent around every corner and every nook and cranny. The main kitchen is a chefs delight with all the accoutrements you would expect from this world reknowned culinary resort. The open and light living room is perfect and the second family room can be used as a third bedroom. The salt water plunge pool is heated and we delighted in the cedar soaking tub each day and night. The bedrooms are spacious and separated making this a place for privacy while attaining the mountain views beyond San Jose.

Our private tour of the grounds was inspirational. The vibe of the place is tangible. You are at once transported and relaxed growing thirsty for their signature juices. So we headed back to the Bar to order a round and start thinking about our lunch. But first how about two of the best cocktails? I ordered the smoky Mezcal Margarita and Sandra tried the Cilantro Gin and Tonic. After a wonderful lunch prepared by Chef Guillermo we decided to get some sun at the Flora Spa and pool. This is for owners and guests staying at their signature cottages and villas.  There are also many private gathering areas for members as well as activities each day. We also took advantage of their recently opened beach club at nearby La Laguna. They are offering new beachfront flats for sale fractionally as well.We took great joy in harvesting our own veggies each day and felt inspired to cook our daily pickings. We met many of the owners who came from all over North America. Everyone staying there seems genuinely happy to be part of this farming community.

We ended the week as we began it by preparing a healthy fresh picked organic meal. As we delighted in our hand picked and fresh meal we dreamed of our next return.This video review of Flora Farms is brought tom you by Cabos Finest your insiders guide to Los Cabos.

Brava Eugenia Gigayacht Los Cabos

Come with us and explore this new Gigayacht Bravo Eugenia. The term Gigayacht refers to the super-sized yachts that are over 100 meters long. This one is 109 meters making her a whopping 357ft in length. Her beam is 53.5 feet and besides looking like a modern sculpture in style, this yacht has many first in class innovations. 

They claim the best hydrodynamic efficiency and the propulsion is eco-conscious and reduces consumption by 30% over standard diesel engines. That may be but not exactly saving the earth. This sleek vessel was commissioned by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and family by Oceano. They partnered with Nuvolari & Lenard for the exterior and Reymond Langston’s design for the interior. She has an aluminum superstructure with a steel hull. The results are stunning and eye-catching. The Jones family caught the superyachting bug a few years back by chartering some impressive yachts in the Mediterranean. These life-changing family vacations allowed them to hone the details they would require in their first privately built Gigayacht.There is the beach club complete with a heated pool, lounging areas, and bar, a large dining area for the whole family, the gym, spa, and Helipad. There is a home office where Jerry spent time during the NFL draft that he calls the war room.The engine room is on one level which is unusual for this size vessel. This allowed much more room for the preferred lower deck where you will find 6 spacious guest suites and the beach club. There are also 30 crew members in the 15 additional cabins.The new innovative propulsion system is efficient but also has an impressive 18 knot two speed. The anchor stabilizing system ensures a restful stay in the lap of luxury.Mr. Jones says his experience of owning and managing a professional football team helped him assemble the team behind her design. There are always contrasting motivations and issues when you are doing groundbreaking design in any field. The Oceano Bravo Eugenia has succeeded in combining efficiently with beautiful lines. She looks perfectly at home in Los Cabos where we are blessed to watch many of the world’s finest yachts come to play. This is truly a playground for the rich and famous where the beautiful Baja desert meets the Sea. Imagine the joy of cruising the Sea of Cortez in such a gorgeous yacht.

Solaz Los Cabos Resort and Residences Los Cabos

The front desk was very accommodating to our early check-in and we headed down to the pools and bars. This ultra-modern design is a striking contrast to other resorts in Los Cabos. The roadside view gives you the impression of a giant industrial design meets children’s play blocks.

The lobby is open-air and inviting where you get your first glimpse of the natural landscaping and magnificent views. I am impressed with the use of local desert landscaping with a wide variety of desert cacti, aloes, grasses, elephant trees, and massive Cardon Cactus.

Our one-bedroom suite is generously sized and completely stocked with a living, room, dining, full kitchen, and bar. It has a smart room control for lighting, privacy, auto drapes, and a three area in-suite sound system using your smartphone for access all of your music. The bedroom had two beds and a nice bath en-suite and a second full bath for the living area. Oversized sliding glass dual pane doors shut out the sound and keep the room cool throughout our stay. Being November we are still getting some heat mid-day so we used the AC a few times. Really enjoyed the cooler evenings and opened up the suite to the large balcony overlooking the villas with their rooftop gardens. The whole space is open and inviting as well as perfectly private. At first, you see only green space until you realize the green is the rooftops of the lower units. We selected the tower which had a large Sea of Cortez views and amazing sunrises.

The copious amount of water features, sculptures, lounging areas, and pools are spread out through the massive property. It made discovering the grounds a long and joyous experience. The property is made up of three separate entities, the Luxury Collection hotel is a division of Bonvoy and we met many Marriott members enjoying this points-based resort. They have a wide variety of suites up to 3 bedrooms. The front row features a plunge pool and seemed to be the most popular of the hotel side of the resort.

The Signature Suites are the other side that is a private residence club and a member of Third Home a luxury second home exchange company. This is the side we are on and are using Third Home to stay here. Contact us or watch our videos on how Third Home transforms second homeownership. These are a combination of large 1, 2, and 3 bedroom suites each having the living, dining, and kitchens.

The far-left towers are the Solaz Residences and are simply amazing. Each floor is a large 5,000 sq foot condo villa. The top penthouses feature an amazing rooftop terrace that is like having your own resort on your roof. Outdoor kitchen, BBQ, lounging area, pool, and hot tub with panoramic views up and down the coast. They have sold out but have two on the resale market priced at $4.2 mil. The Penthouse features 8,000 sq ft of indoor-outdoor living.

There are 5 restaurants offering a wide variety of fresh seafood, Japanese and northern Italian. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality and variety. The whole resort is pet friendly and we met so many dog lovers that wanted to pet Oakley. They are quite accommodating to our lifestyle. Since the grounds are so spread out we walked everywhere including the nice beach so exercise is easy. There is a state of the art gym, spa, and beach activities like volleyball, SUP, kayaks, and the new electric hydro boards. These look so cool but didn’t get around to it on this stay. The Southeast views make for ideal sunrises over the Sea of Cortez. Evenings are equally magical with the soft lighting illuminating the well-placed landscaping.

We loved our stay here so much that we have already booked another week next month. We were not alone in our positive review there are many repeat vacationers, happy owners of their residence club, and the tower residences. There are plans to build a tennis academy and stadium behind Solaz. The future looks bright for this 5-star resort in the corridor of Los Cabo’s.

300 Foot Mega-yacht Dana Voyager

https://youtu.be/VLJjS5QgMRY

We have been watching and filming the many mega-yachts coming and going in our Bay of San Lucas. I also enjoy researching and discovering the story behind the yachts and the owners. This particular explorer style yacht is a bit of a mystery. 

It is owned by a small supply and service company called Voyager Marine Alliance Group (VMAG) based in Fort Lauderdale FL. David Leone is the President and presumed owner of the Voyager yacht. They provide a wide range of High Seas Navigation Systems, Communications Systems, Steering and Control systems along with Custom Pilot House Integrated Consoles. They spent 3 years retrofitting and upgrading this supply ship into this amazing Mega-yacht. This is the single largest rebuild ever in the USA. It was lengthened by 30 feet to a total length of 300 feet in Louisiana then shipped to corporate headquarters in Fort Lauderdale for the final finishes and extensive electronics work.

They claim this is the first fully integrated system on a yacht. “This means that anywhere on the vessel there are access points that can monitor any type of activity, i.e. navigation, security, radar, engines, generators, power distribution, fuel, water, etc., to enable the captain to have complete control of the vessel, whether he is at the helm, in the sun lounge or in his cabin.” All systems are accessed on touch screen computers. I’m imagining the captain using an iPad to control the whole ship.The unique aft has a wide range of tenders and dive boats as well as a fully stocked dive center. These under seas diving scientists are cruising in style with a staff of 70 for support.In any event, this unique style mega yacht is being used as a floating salesroom as well as a scientific research explorer. The real mystery is how a small company with only 12 employees and annual revenue of $2.27 million can afford such a prized mega-yacht. I would imagine the annual operating costs of this beast to equal their revenue.

Palmitos Residential Pre-construction Condos Cabo San Lucas

There is a preconstruction project that we find interesting. It is on the Pacific side off Hwy 19 just out of town. The developers are well underway on the first 4 buildings. There are mostly three-bedroom condos with a few two bedrooms as well. 

They have plans for common areas with good sized pool area, Clubhouse, Gym, and lounging areas around the pool. These are seven- three-story buildings each with 12 units for 84 total units in Palmitos.

The typical cinder block construction appears solid. they have a decent-sized construction crew and heavy equipment and are making significant headway. The sales have been brisk and they have recently released the 7th G building at pre-construction pricing as follows. The two-bedroom unit unfurnished and with appliances is offered at $87,000, the larger 3 bedroom top floor units are $112,000 and feature 1,169 sq ft of AC space plus two smallish decks overlooking the pool or distant Pacific with southwest views which will have great sunsets to enjoy. The top floors are being offered with a sizable roof deck that is unfinished but plumbed for water and gas. These are priced the same as the first two floors. These are all accessed via common stairs as well as the roofs. No elevators are offered.

As you can see these are open floor plans and efficient. The bedrooms are small and there is an en-suite in the master bedroom and the other two share the second bath. The appliances in the model are at an additional cost. For further details contact us at www.cabosfinest.com or call us at 624-115-2703.

The Jacaranda Street is a newly poured concrete road that is wide,  tree-lined, lighted, and has a nice sidewalk.

This location is great for long term rentals to employees who work in the Diamante, Rancho San Lucas, and Quivira master-planned communities.

Best Tacos in Los Cabos

Hi I am KT Morgan the host of Cabosfinest your insider’s guide to Los Cabos. Tacos are believed to be invented in the Silver mines in Mexico during the 18th Century. The Fish Taco is a decidedly Baja invention being claimed by Ensenada and San Felipe. 

In any event we can agree that tacos are distinctly Mexican and absolutely delicious. Here we bring you the top 5 taco restaurants in Los Cabos. Before you start commenting on this list be aware these is our personal favorites and there are hundreds if not thousands of amazing tacos all Baja and over the world. Viva Tacos!

First up we feature La Lupitas Tacos and Mezcal. This is an upscale taco spot that opened a few top years ago in the Historic Art District in Downtown San Jose and has expanded into Cabo San Lucas near Medano Beach. They take the standard taco to new heights with their fresh ingredients and unique salsas. Instead of bringing you the stripped down version where you add the Coleslaw, pico de galla, chipotle sauces, etc… they in their infinite wisdom garnish each style to the best of their idea of the perfect taco. pairing this with an appropriate Mezcal pumps up the flavor as well as the fiesta. Both locations are festive and offer occasional live music.
