"Absolutely picturesque from the moment I arrived, this luxury resort in Todos Santos on the southern tip of Baja California greeted me with a cold towel, a glass of juice made from local produce, and a smoking bushel of sage on a platter. From my room, I gazed over rich brown sand, a bountiful garden, and rolling mountains, while the property itself—an architectural feast—has stark concrete buildings that resemble a stylish spaceship that somehow landed in the Baja desert. Everywhere I looked had me going, “Damn!” and even beyond the grounds, a yacht sailed by the resort took me cruising down the Sea of Cortez as the sun set over crystal-clear blue waters." - Rob LeDonne
"Set on a previously unused five‑and‑a‑half‑acre plot in a farming community outside Todos Santos, I saw how Paradero positions itself as the first hotel brand to introduce experience‑based lodging to Mexico, with founders Pablo Carmona and Joshua Kremer aiming to preserve the surrounding 160+ acres of family farms. The resort’s brutalist‑inspired buildings (by Ruben Valdez and Yashar Yektajo) are finished in golden, sunbaked hues that let the 100,000‑square‑foot botanical garden—red sand verbena, Mojave yucca, Shaw’s agave—pop. Though the outdoor spa and half‑moon infinity pool make the grounds hard to leave, there are guided hikes through cactus fields to Las Palmas beach, taco tours, private surf lessons, custom boards in the open‑air living room, and seafood‑centric meals from chef Eduardo Ríos (a Pujol alum)." - Paris Wilson
"Located in Mexico, Paradero Todos Santos is an architectural masterpiece that matches its style to the continent’s sublime deserts, awarded with a MICHELIN Key." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Paradero Todos Santos is known for its brutalist architecture in sleek raw concrete, blending into the rugged landscape. It's a perfect choice for the design-minded, offering soft luxury furnishings and orange-glow lighting. The hotel features an infinity pool with a desert view and a restaurant complete with an open kitchen and Oaxacan clay oven." - David Shortell
"An accessible venue choice for couples seeking a range of budgets, situated near scenic coastal and desert attractions and serving as a comfortable, well-located option for weddings that want both local character and convenient accommodations." - Lindsay Paige Stein
