Situated along the sandy shores of San José del Cabo, Zadún, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve is a haven for wellness seekers. With the azure waters of the Sea of Cortez as a backdrop, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a more idyllic setting to relax and unwind on your next vacation.
The resort’s spa is one of the best in the Baja Peninsula. Set within a shady garden reminiscent of a traditional Mexican town square, Spa Alkemia offers an array of treatments inspired by ancient rituals (think exfoliating body scrubs, aromatic massages and reflexology sessions).
At the heart of the spa is a tranquil pool that offers an open-air circuit of different water temperatures and pressures, designed to heal and soothe both body and mind.
Of course, a good night’s sleep is key to wellbeing too: The best accommodation at Zadún is the Grand Reserve Villa. Set across two floors, the sprawling oceanfront retreat expertly blends outdoor and indoor spaces to ensure the stunning location takes center stage. Outside lies a private pool and sunny terrace dotted with loungers and gently swaying palm trees.
The 5,930-sq-ft villa boasts two king size bedrooms, and two breezy, light-filled bathrooms complete with deep soaking tubs (the master bathroom has a gorgeous outdoor shower, too). Ideal for entertaining, the villa features an expansive living area with sliding glass doors that open straight out onto the beach.
Ensuring everything is taken care of, the Grand Reserve Villa comes with a personal ‘Tosoanis’ (attendant) to cater to your every whim and there’s a private chef on-hand to whip up gourmet meals. When you can bring yourself to step foot outside the villa, there are plenty of restaurants to choose from including Humo where you can enjoy delicious South American dishes prepared over an open fire, and Equis, a laidback eatery and bar serving ceviche and cocktails.
