Restored pearl-trader villa
A 1910 oyster merchant's villa and its modern concrete wing enclose a quiet, brick-lined courtyard along the bay.
“The 32 guest rooms, split across the two wings and joined together by the spiral staircase, are inspired by La Paz’s maritime history.”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
A sculptural spiral staircase connects tiered modern wings around a brick courtyard.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler, The 50 Discovery, Softer Volumes and AFAR.
a 1910-vintage colonial-style villa that’s been renovated and expanded ... into a one-of-a-kind marriage of classic luxury and contemporary design.
“Original warm-hued terrazzo floors and exposed wood beams are offset by furnishings made from wicker and earthenware pieces sourced from within Mexico.”
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Malecón boardwalk runs right outside, with downtown seafood spots and bay boat tours a short stroll away.
The rooms
Curved walls and porthole windows echo ship cabins, opening onto private patios with striped banquettes.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Striped loungers border the courtyard lap pool, set against original brick walls and shaded by frangipani trees.
The spa & gym
Dogs stay too.
Baja Club Restaurant
Greek-inspired dishes center on fresh Baja catch, served under a leafy pergola or in the dining room.
Behind its pristine white facade lies a boutique gem, with soaring ceilings, rustic wooden accents, decorative ironwork and colorful tiles.
At the table
The open-air rooftop bar serves mezcal cocktails and natural wine with views across the Bay of La Paz.
How it began

Built in 1910 for the local Cornejo family, the original estate once anchored La Paz's thriving oyster pearl trade.
“Beautifully restored colonial-style villa from the early 20th century, located on the 'Malecón' (coastal boardwalk) of the historic centre of La Paz.”
