Punta Morro Resort

Todos Santos Bay opens directly below Punta Morro, on Mexico's Pacific coast a short drive from central Ensenada and roughly 108 kilometres south of the San Diego border. The resort sits on a stone beach, where waves break close enough to hear from the terraces. Rooms range from king-bed Deluxe rooms to Sunset and Ocean suites, up to two- and three-bedroom suites for larger groups, and every one opens onto its own private balcony facing the water. The Ocean Suite has the widest terrace and the clearest run of sea view. Downstairs, the restaurant serves Baja Med cooking under chef Hugo Angulo, including lobster enchiladas and Cedros Island sopecitos, with a bar pouring regional and imported wine. A cliffside lookout, built in tiers over the rocks, gives an unbroken line on the sunset. The spa works from a treatment cabin or in-room, with vinotherapy and molecular hydrogen facials among the services, plus a heated pool, jacuzzi and fire pits scattered through the gardens. You can hear the surf from the stone beach at night. A garden marquee holds up to 250 guests for weddings, and the smaller Black Marlin room, ringed with windows over the bay, seats 40. Tesla chargers stand at the entrance for guests passing through on the coastal road.
