With unrivalled views of the Pacific Ocean and surrounded by golden terracotta tiles and swaying palm trees, Villa Pacifica certainly lives up to its name. This glorious six-bedroom hacienda complex indulges the senses, with fragrant gardens and the salty sea air creating a heady cocktail of scents. The ocean waves lap the private sandy beach, and the bold modernist touches combine with more traditional detailing to create a complex yet charming ambience.

The view becomes an integral part of the décor, and floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors make the most of this crucial feature. The effect creates a continuous space that flows effortlessly from indoors to out, connecting the grand room and the large infinity pool to the ocean beyond. A lush green lawn is dotted with retro-style loungers and shaded by palm trees for a lazy afternoon of sunbathing with a good book n. And when the sun sets, an al fresco meal is the order of the day, enjoyed under the thatched roof of the palapa - preferably with a margarita in hand.

The interior utilises traditional Mexican tiles and warm terracotta floors with woven reed furniture to give you that authentic feel. The arched kitchen bay links the internal dining area to the gourmet kitchen, allowing the designated chef to chat with the rest of the group. The blue and yellow tile motif continues in the ensuite bathrooms, providing a thoughtfully integrated design throughout the whole villa. The bedrooms are split between the main villa and the guest casita. In the main house, the master suite uses homely furnishings and local fabrics on the king-size bed to bring pops of colour to the subtle tones. The main villa also has three further bedrooms, offering a king bed in bedroom four, two queen beds in bedroom three, and a queen bed and twin bed in bedroom two. These rooms pick up on the regional themes, with bright colours complemented by soft, natural tones. Over in the casita, two bedrooms offer a queen bed and a twin bed with shared bathroom and shower facilities.

Villa Pacifica sits in the exclusive gated community of Palmilla’s Cabo San Lucas, and guests have access to the community's amenities, including the golf course and tennis courts. Beyond the town lies some of the region's best-kept natural secrets, including numerous emerald cenotes and nature reserves that are a hiker's dream. The beach offers exceptional surfing, diving, and snorkelling, all just a few steps away from one of the region's most authentic and charismatic villas.
