Spent five relaxing days at Guaycura Boutique Hotel located in downtown Todos Santos in January 2023. This boutique hotel has an old world Spanish colonel feel with modern touches, is warm and quiet and the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and well-travelled. I was a little apprehensive about staying in downtown Todos Santos for more than a couple of days ( I like to be near the beach), but you have free access to the El Farro Beach Club which is great for whale watching, very comfortable with shaded beach chairs, great for taking long walks along the beach, and is a wonderful spot for lunch and drinks. Of course the open air roof top dining area, appropriately called the Sky Lounge, provides an incredible place to view the sunset, and the dinner prepared by Chef Garnica should not be missed! Also, if you are new to mezcal there is a young lady who works in the Sky Lounge from Oaxaca (I can’t remember her name SORRY) who is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about all mezcals. She can answer all your questions and provide great recommendations…my favorite was Covite! …
My husband and I found this wonderful rooftop bar during our second trip to Todos Santos. Not only are the views amazing but the service and food are enjoyable as well. Fabiola, our server, was super friendly and attentive to our needs. She made sure everything was to our liking and had a few laughs with us. Yessica, bartender, made us a delicious virgin Mojito something we never thought could pass as the original, super refreshing! The food was super fresh, and presented beautifully. We ordered the guacamole which had a lovely seasoned flavor, not too spicy, along with freshly made tortilla chips. I had the ribeye tacos and my husband had the pork belly tacos, both of which were cooked just perfectly, so tender! The seasoning on both were just right and the pork belly had a tender yet crispy texture, super yummy!! We look forward to going back for more real soon. Thank you Chef Ernesto for introducing yourself and for the amazing food. Your abuelita knows guacamole! ;) You're a true culinary inspiration 🙏🏼…
We were recently in Todos Santos for a couple of nights. The drive from SJD airport to the Guaycura hotel was scenic and very easy. We reached the hotel just in time to witness a fabulous sunset from the Sky lounge while enjoying snacks and cocktails. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating, cooking a delicious, customized vegetarian dinner for us. The hotel is well located in the heart of the small town making it easy to stroll around and explore the downtown and shops. It is very clean, well-kept, aesthetically decorated with elegant art leaving you with a quaint Mexican feel. Breakfast at the restaurant was delicious and even included freshly made green juice. During the day we relaxed at the El Faro beach club and Spa, which is a short drive from the hotel. The cocktails, Mediterranean food, amazing swimming pool, beautiful beach and the staff were all excellent. This is a great place for a massage while enjoying a soothing breeze from the ocean. This beach club is located exactly on the tropic of cancer! Later that evening we witnessed an amazing and memorable sunset at the El Mirador hilltop restaurant, which is also a short drive from the hotel. The warmth of the staff, the effort they put into make us feel comfortable with delicious vegetarian dinner prepared specially for us will stay in our memories forever. We highly recommend a visit to this hotel to anyone who wants to vacation in Los Cabos area and enjoy the hospitality of Baja Mexico. …
We loved staying at Guaycura Boutique Hotel in Todos Santos. It’s location in the town historical center is unrivaled, and it’s beach club, only 10 minutes away, is the perfect mix of village and ocean. The rooftop of the hotel has a nice ocean view and a very good bar. It also has a lovely plunge pool. Breakfast is also very good. The beach club has a larger pool and lots of spaces to be. The food menu is great (ask for the fish tacos or the octopus). The spa is small but very relaxing. The massage therapist knows what she’s doing! It was a great place for a couples weekend.
We ended up departing early from our 2 night stay. The hotel was adequate --- staff were friendly and rooms were acceptable (though slight more rustic than depicted in the photos). We were there in early September (prior to Hurricane Kay which came through several days after our departure). The beach club was closed for the duration of our stay, which was disappointing because we selected this particular hotel for our Todos Santos stay because of this amenity. We could not get a straight answer from the staff, both in person and subsequently via email, as to why it was closed. Also the SkyLounge space is undergoing a full renovation (see photos). Understandably this makes for a less-than-relaxing atmosphere. I understand that hotels take the low season as an opportunity to upgrade/enhance facilities, I only wish that the hotel was more transparent and upfront with the work that would overlap with our stay during the reservation process.…
As advertised, small boutique hotel. First floor: Reception, bar, shop, breakfast patio Second/Third floors: Guest rooms Fourth Floor: Wading pool, sun deck, bar & patio We selected the king suite, comfortable bed, spacious seating area, small deck, nice bathroom. Clean linens every day. Attentive staff. Ample HVAC, although the hot water seems to be heated by the sun. No safe in the room, which was my only want. Main roads are easy to navigate, secondary roads are often unpaved outside of town (rent an SUV). Street parking was without issue. Hotel is in town, nice shops to walk to and browse. Beach & SPA (El Faro) are a short drive (10 out of 10). The sunset restaurant (El Mirado) is also a short drive (10 out of 10). Access via secondary road.
We have been to this hotel for 3 nights during our stay in Todos Santos. The position is very central. The roof top pool is very small but still nice and create a cozy atmosphere. The restaurant on the roof top is good. Rooms are big, nice and clean. Staff very helpful. We had an inconvenience with the power during one night, due to a municipal intervention, and they offer to give us a night in another hotel. We did not accept as the issue was so small but we appreciate a lot the offer. Breakfast take place in a small court nice and good.
Great views. Great amenities. The service is amazing. The drinks are fantastic. Ask for Alfonso, he brings the best drinks. Spend the day here, you won’t regret it. There’s a fantastic spa and the pool is amazing!!!
We only got to stay here for one night as we had stayed another hotel on the beach during our visit to Todos Santos. Staff were very friendly and the rooms were very nice, with good quality bathroom products. The rooftop pool area was nice to relax with a cold beer at the end of the day (the water was cold though). Breakfast was good, but the coffee drinks could have been better. Overall a nice stay.
Estrella offered fantastic customer service for our 5 night stay at Guaycura. Always helpful and lovely to chat with. The bar staff and cleaning staff were also fantastic, always with big smiles and warm welcomes. Our room was exceptional - so spacious and relaxing with a great little view over the trees to the ocean. Although we didn't eat here we enjoyed lazing by the pool on the rooftop enjoying drinks and relaxing. Very relaxed and calm atmosphere and in a great location. We couldn't fault this place - it was great to have all the creature comforts of a great hotel in a traditional Mexican setting.
