To mark 20 years of achievement as a charitable institution, the Letty Coppel Foundation has organized a very special event to celebrate its anniversary.

Situated next to Amakiri Botanical Garden, the new Quivira Farmer’s Market, unveiled in late October, features organic products, food stalls, artisanal crafts, natural medicines, handmade jewelry, cleaning products, colorful folkloric clothing and more. The market, open every Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. through May, is accessible to community residents as well as guests of Pueblo Bonito Resorts.

When day turns to night, everything is better by candlelight!

With that in mind, Quivira Los Cabos has scheduled a special tribute concert to Coldplay, the British rock band known for its melodic piano-driven anthems.

Q Life, dedicated to the ‘Art of Fine Living,’ has organized a special golf event for community residents. Scheduled for Monday, December 4 at 7:00 a.m., the Second Annual Q Life Two-Ball Shamble Tournament will be contested at Quivira Golf Club, a Jack Nicklaus Signature design recently voted to Golf Digest’s roster of the “World’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses.”

Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, originated thousands of years ago with several pre-Hispanic cultures for whom death was a natural phase in life’s continuum. For them, the dead were still members of the community, kept alive in memory and spirit. And during Día de los Muertos, the dearly departed temporarily returned to Earth.

The final weeks of summer in Los Cabos can be tough to weather. After all, the conditions have been oppressively hot since mid-July. The average daily temperature in September is consistently in the high 80s and low 90s F, but seasonal high humidity makes it feel like it’s in the low 100s F. That’s steamy.

In the world of enticing offers, this one is irresistible:
“The Bajaja is an intimate music festival on a pristine beach in Baja California Sur, Mexico. With mountain views at the end of an arroyo where a palm grove and sunsets meet the sea (in El Pescadero), join us November 30 – December 2. 

The United States celebrates its Independence Day on the 4th of July, commemorating its legal separation from Great Britain by virtue of its Declaration of Independence. 

Invented in 1965 as a children's backyard game on Bainbridge Island in Washington State, pickleball has grown by leaps and bounds. With a growth rate of 39.3% since 2021, pickleball has been named the fastest-growing sport in the U.S. 

Summer is fleeting. Fall is approaching.
For big-game fishermen across the globe, thoughts (and dreams) now turn to Los Cabos, a legendary deep-sea fishing mecca. In fact, more big-game fish are caught in Los Cabos, a.k.a. “Marlin Alley,” than anywhere else in the world. October, when marlin fishing is at its peak, yields the biggest trophy fish--and the biggest cash jackpots.

The time to escape and take a break from routine to start enjoying a journey that begins the moment you step into Quivira until you say goodbye has come. When renting a stay at the villas or condos of the residential units at Quivira, it may be a little overwhelming finding out the many options available for you: from which activities to choose from to what to eat. 

Oceans cover most of our planet and are vital for life. A few days ago, on June 8th, World Ocean Day was celebrated. Established by the United Nations, its goal is to create conscience about the importance of these vast water bodies and promote their conservation.  World Sea Turtle Day happened some days later, on June 16th.

Fashionistas of Los Cabos, circle the dates on your calendar! Los Cabos Fashion Week will celebrate its first edition from June 25 – 30. Los Cabos now joins elite fashion industry destinations such as New York, Paris, London and Milan as a global style leader.

When day turns to night, everything is better by candlelight!

With that in mind, Quivira Los Cabos has scheduled six Candlelight Summer concerts for late July. 

Caretaking the planet and its finite resources should be everyone’s business. And that includes fashionistas.

Spas, just as we know them now, are rooted in traditional healing practices from many countries around the world. For example, the ancient Greeks and Romans used thermal water therapy, while in Asia, traditional Chinese medicine used massage techniques.

It’s common knowledge that shopping is the No. 1 leisure activity for people on vacation. That’s true even in Los Cabos, a spectacular desert-meets-sea destination that boasts a wide array of outdoor activities.

At Quivira Los Cabos we have found true inspiration in the diversity of Mexican architecture and design to create a welcoming, contemporary and, at the same time, exclusive environment.

World Turtle Day is May 23. Time to “Shellabrate!” 

American Tortoise Rescue (ATR), a nonprofit organization, was established in 1990 to protect all species of turtles and tortoises. ATR created and launched WorldTurtleDay.org to increase respect for and knowledge about one of the world’s oldest creatures. Turtle lovers around the globe throw parties, organize fundraisers, and take “shellfies” on May 23 to share on social media.

World Cocktail Day, a global celebration of cocktails, marks the publication date of the first definition of a cocktail on May 13, 1806. On that day, the New York tabloid The Balance and Columbian Repository defined a cocktail as “a stimulating liquor, composed of spirits of any kind, sugar, water and bitters.”  

The sun is climbing higher into the sky and the water is beginning to warm up. Spring is a perfect time to hit the beach on the Pacific side of Los Cabos!

Created as an exclusive amenity for residents of Quivira Los Cabos, the Beach Club at Quivira Los Cabos, unveiled last November, has expanded its menu of Q Life activities for owners.

A recent story in Mexico News Daily entitled, “Food for thought: Mexican expressions inspired by the dinner table,” provides humorous insights into the nation’s culture and comestibles. 

April 22nd is Earth Day under the motto: “Investing in our planet”, where awareness is raised about environmental changes and the conservation of biodiversity in the face of climate change, among other things.

Spring has sprung! Long-time residents as well as frequent visitors to Los Cabos all have their favorite times of year. There’s autumn, when the air is fresh and the desert is lush and green after summer rains. There’s winter, for the festive year-end holidays and the annual arrival of the whales. 

The quintessential symbol of Mexican gastronomy? It’s the sauce! Sauce in Mexico equates to salsa, the essential ingredient in the nation’s most popular dishes and antojitos (snacks).

In March, we celebrate World water day, a date on which we reflect on the importance of this vital liquid.

Have you ever thought about what water represents? It is one of the most precious resources of our planet, the source that gives us the possibility to enjoy our environment. Water is everything, which is why it is crucial to take measures to preserve it and ensure a sustainable future for everyone.

From the moment humanity discovered the serendipitous result of mixing dirt with water, mankind has used clay to form an imaginary world inspired by the divinities. 

Mexican artisans began working with ceramics in the 2300 - 1500 B.C. era, around the time early nomadic inhabitants began to settle down. In time, potters began to replace objects carved in stone with earthenware. 

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, thoughts turn to romance. Especially in a dazzling desert-meets-sea destination where all the ingredients for intimacy and togetherness are on full display. 

Whether you’re are a seasoned visitor or have just begun your Cabo vacation tradition, you’re bound to learn something new from the list below. Located 1,000 miles south of San Diego at the southern tip of the Baja peninsula, Los Cabos, a glittering desert-meets-sea destination, is a fascinating place to visit, with lots to do and much to learn. 

New year, new discoveries, new adventures! Tucked away on the East Cape, 50 miles north of Cabo San Lucas, is Rancho Ecológico Sol de Mayo, an oasis in the desert well worth finding for its beauty and solitude.

“All the gold in the world means nothing, what lasts are the good deeds we do for all fellow men.”  -- Adolfo Prieto

 Founded in 2004 by Letty Coppel, the Fundacion Letty Coppel was created with the primary objective of improving the quality of life within the communities of Los Cabos and Mazatlán.

Situated off the coast of La Paz and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2005 (and a National Park since 2007), Espiritu Santo, the Island of the Holy Spirit, is a place apart. Holy Spirit is a fitting name for a place that leaves visitors feeling exalted and renewed by the island’s magical mix of solitude, sun, sand and saltwater. 

It is well known that the rapid pace in large cities causes stress and anxiety and that, by changing environments, our mood is transformed when in front of a beach, a mountain, the desert or any landscape.

The year is coming to an end and, with it, comes a reflection on everything we achieved, the recap of our goals, of the things we postponed and what we wish to do in 2023.

Same golf course, different order of holes. The recent debut of the Beach Club, an exclusive new amenity for Quivira Los Cabos residents and their guests, necessitated the elimination of the beachfront golf cart path that led from the staging area to the former first tee. 

December 15 marked the official start of the whale watching season in Los Cabos, the beautiful Land’s End destination that also happens to be one of the best places in the world to see whales.

Sea turtle season has come to an end with great success. Each year, at Quivira, we have the privilege to do a little bit for the conservation of one of the most beautiful species in our oceans. 

Call it a reawakening, or a renaissance. El Triunfo, a former mining town south of La Paz, continues to draw day-trippers from Los Cabos to its restored colonial buildings, authentic eateries, and unrivalled 19th-century ambience. Considered an important site for archaeological research, El Triunfo is one of the best preserved 19th-century mining communities in North America.

Breakfast is often called & the most important meal of the day', and for good reason. Breakfast kick-starts your metabolism, helping you burn calories throughout the day. It replenishes your supply of glucose to boost energy levels and alertness while providing other essential nutrients required for good health. It also gives you the energy you need to get things done--or simply enjoy an active lifestyle. Happily, Los Cabos brims with excellent breakfast choices to “break” your overnight fasting period. Here’s our top five.

Visitors often refer to El Arco, the iconic sea arch at Land’s End, as the place where the Sea of Cortes meets the Pacific Ocean. Not true. Situated at kilometer zero near Quivira Golf Club’s seventh tee is Faro Viejo, the region’s original lighthouse. The castle-like edifice, the oldest standing structure in Los Cabos (1905), commands the very tip of the Baja Peninsula.

If anyone can speak with authority about what’s new within the Quivira resort community, it’s Christian Rehmke, who took the reins in June 2021 and oversees the operation of the development’s master plan.

Scheduled this year for November 9 – 13, the renowned Los Cabos International Film Festival is one of main pillars of Cabo’s cultural life. The festival was founded to unite the American, Canadian, and Mexican cinema worlds—and create a dialogue with the global film industry.

Gastrovino is going Greek!

The annual Gastrovino Food and Wine Festival, scheduled for November 11 – 13 in the colonial city of Todos Santos an hour’s drive north of Cabo San Lucas, is harking back to the days of Bacchanalia.

What began a few years ago as a friendly get-together for foodies who care about well-sourced ingredients and proper meal preparation has blossomed into the Cooking Class, one of the most popular facets of Q Life’s Flavors pillar enjoyed by Quivira’s residential owners. (Resort guests are also welcome to join the class). These interactive culinary demonstrations are scheduled every Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Organic Orchard at Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Golf & Spa Resort.

Situated at the tip of the Baja Peninsula in the place where the Sea of Cortes meets the Pacific Ocean, Cabo is a legendary deep-sea fishing capital. More big-game fish are caught in Los Cabos, a.k.a. “Marlin Alley,” than anywhere else in the world. October, when marlin fishing is at its best, produces the biggest catches (and the biggest jackpots).

San Jose del Cabo’s Thursday night Art Walk is a fixture on the calendar from November through June, offering visitors an ideal opportunity to explore the city’s historic Art District. 

You’re in Mexico. It’s time to discover the amazing variety of quick, affordable meals that Mexicans eat on the go. 

Street food is not a pejorative term. It’s best described as homemade food that’s very tasty and, by restaurant standards, very inexpensive.  

Renowned for its magnificent stretch of coastline, legendary deep-sea fishing and romantic hideaway allure, Los Cabos has a fascinating history as a Spanish frontier in a no-man’s land.

This will come as no surprise to anyone who enjoys the varied and delicious food that Mexico has to offer.

For a vacation destination to be considered world-class, it must offer a wide-ranging menu of age-appropriate, family-friendly activities and adventures. This is especially true in the summer months, when kids are off from school. 

When it comes lots of fun for family members of all ages, Los Cabos delivers on all counts. Here’s added incentive: Cabo Adventures, one of the destination’s premier outfitters, deeply discounts its most popular outings during the summer months. 

Here’s a review of the company’s top four tours. 

Los Cabos has a double personality. There’s Cabo San Lucas, the deep-sea fishing mecca and party capital at Land’s End; and, 20 miles away, San Jose del Cabo (St. Joseph of the Cape), a charming colonial town situated on the west bank of the nearby Río San José.

Katherine Pullen Locket is the director of interior design for Pueblo Bonito Golf & Spa Resorts. It’s a big job, one she’s held for years. In addition to overseeing the interior design of existing hotels and new properties such as the Pueblo Bonito Vantage San Miguel de Allende (slated to open next year), she also guides the look and style of the real estate projects within Quivira Los Cabos. It’s an impressive list: Copala, Coronado, Mavila, and under-construction projects such as Alvar, St. Regis Resort & Residences, and Old Lighthouse Golf and Ocean Club.

There is no shortage of souvenir shops in Cabo San Lucas. In fact, you can find one on nearly every corner of the marina and its adjoining side streets. However, if you’re looking for a more interesting shopping experience—places where the merchandise is well-priced and worthwhile—make your way to one of two special shopping experiences. 

Once again, Antonio Reynante, Quivira’s director of golf, corrects a common swing fault that prevents many amateurs from playing to their full potential. In this segment, he addresses the vital importance of neutralizing your grip and “releasing the right side” to square up the clubface at impact.

Quivira owners who happen to be avid tennis fans, take note: the sixth edition of the ATP tournament, or Los Cabos Open, will return this summer, with singles and doubles matches scheduled from August 1 – 6.

Because many locals in Los Cabos speak English, it’s easy to be lazy-minded when it comes to learning Spanish here. By mastering a few basic phrases, you’ll earn the appreciation of residents. While Spanish pronunciations are somewhat challenging and a bit different from English, overcome your reticence and give it a try. The locals will love you for it.

So you’re visiting Los Cabos, the hottest destination in all of Latin America. Maybe you’ve even invested in a property here. Congratulations. This vibrant Land’s End getaway at the tip of the Baja Peninsula is magical place where the mountains meet the desert and the desert meets the sea. It’s also a safe, family-friendly destination.

A room with a view? They are plentiful throughout the various hospitality entities within Quivira Los Cabos. In a few cases, serendipitous geography yields panoramic ocean views from rocky mounts that are simply breathtaking. But there are also a couple of venues set just about beach level that are just as inspiring.

It is one of the great ironies of Mexican history. Cinco de Mayo (May 5) commemorates the anniversary of Mexico's victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. It does not equate to Mexico’s Independence Day (September 16), the most important national holiday in Mexico. Aside from military parades and battle reenactments in Puebla and a few other cities, May 5 is not widely celebrated south of the border. For example, Cinco de Mayo is not a federal holiday. Banks, offices and stores remain open.

The Travelers Guide to Mexico is an invaluable tourism resource produced in Mexico and available in a bilingual edition. The guide’s description of Pueblos Magicos, or Magical Towns, is instructive.

There it stands at Land’s End, a rock of the ages, a natural sea arch and the unflinching backdrop for more selfies than any other landmark in Los Cabos.

It’s nearly impossible to page through a local lifestyle magazine or scroll through a destination-based website without seeing an image of this distinctive rock formation.

Pueblo Bonito Resorts’ commitment to service does not stop with our guests and residents; it reaches to our employees and into the broader, overlapping communities where are properties are located. Funded through private donations, the Letty Coppel Foundation (Fundación Letty Coppel) strives to improve the quality of life within the Los Cabos and Mazatlán communities.

Antonio Reynante, director of golf at Quivira Golf Club, is a practical man. He does not believe that golf needs to be more complicated than it already is. He stresses bedrock fundamentals, not passing fads. His take on golf instruction removes a lot of the mystery and muddle surrounding the proper execution of the full golf swing.
