What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Hacienda Beach Club and Residences is less a hotel than a collection of oversized residences; one to four bedrooms, with hardwood doors, handcrafted metalwork, and natural stone finishes throughout.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Medano Beach sits directly outside, and the marina's restaurants and nightlife are an easy walk away.
The rooms
Residences have handcrafted hardwood doors and full kitchens. The marble bathrooms come with deep soaking tubs.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Tiered infinity pools include dedicated adult and family sections, and outdoor hot tubs look toward Land's End.
The spa
Couples treatment suites open onto stone courtyards, and the changing areas hold saunas and steam rooms.
The fitness center
Cardio and weight equipment sits beneath timber truss ceilings, and the Movement Room hosts complimentary yoga classes.
Restaurant
Hacienda Cocina y Cantina
Regional Mexican cuisine is served on the open-air terrace, where stone fire pits look out across the bay.
At the table
The thatched Palapa Bar mixes tequila and mezcal cocktails, and the Spa Cafe serves fresh smoothies.
How it began
The resort replaced the 1960s Hacienda Hotel, keeping original sculptures and fountains from when John Wayne and Bing Crosby visited.
