Hotel Location Paradero Todos Santos, Carretera, Degollado, Baja California Sur, Mexico

The Sierra Laguna mountain range turns purple when the sun sets over the ocean filled with gray and humpback whales. There’s a secret beach next door to the Paradero where wild horses roam. The magical Pueblo of Todos Santos town is a 5-minute drive away.
