Villa del Palmar at the Islands of Loreto by Danzante Bay, a resort located on the eastern coast of Mexico's Baja California Peninsula, will unveil phase two of its renovations on Jan. 1.
The resort, part of UNESCO World Heritage site Loreto Bay National Marine Park, includes the TPC Danzante Bay, an 18-hole golf course from architect Rees Jones; four restaurants; 39,000-square-foot Sabila Spa; five pools; and 338 suites and penthouses, including options that can sleep up to 10 people.
The second phase of the renovations includes a $42 million investment into a new hotel wing, a new panoramic boulevard with bike lanes and underground fiber optic network. The addition of 158 accommodations to the all-suite resort include penthouses and oceanfront suites that overlook the Sea of Cortez and surrounding islands.
Designed by Guadalajara-based interior designer Marisol Tafich Santos, the penthouses and suites have warm earth tones, light-colored rugs and handmade lamps that echo Loreto's beaches and waters. Every guest accommodation includes a kitchen.
In addition, Villa del Palmar's dining venues will be expanded. Casa Mia, the resort's outdoor Italian eatery, will double in size next year.
"We are thrilled to unveil the next phase of Villa del Palmar at the Islands of Loreto to our loyal guests as well as a new generation of visitors," said Owen Perry and Luz Maria Torres, developers of Danzante Bay. "Nestled on the turquoise waters of the Sea of Cortez and beloved as a hidden jewel on the Baja Peninsula, Villa del Palmar is the perfect destination to create meaningful new memories surrounded by spectacular natural beauty."
