La Fonda del Mar

La Fonda del Mar Review

If you're looking for a peaceful back-to-nature retreat, check out this hotel on a long, secluded beach that straddles the line between desert and ocean. And once the diners clear out of the adjacent and very popular Buzzard's Bar & Grill, La Fonda is even more tranquil. The three thatch-roof cabañas and one cabaña/suite are in heavy demand by both surfers and the more adventurous in high season. Cabañas have en suite toilets and sinks but share a hot-water shower; the suite has standard in-room facilities. The whole operation runs on solar power. To get here, turn off Boulevard Mijares at the signs for Puerto Los Cabos, continue past PLC and follow the road up the hill, around the mini-circle, and continue out into the desert; it's about 5 km (3mi; 10 minutes) outside town.
