Looking to find the best hotels in Todos Santos for your beach vacation? This list has you covered. I recently spent a better part of a week exploring all that Todos Santos has to offer. What I found were some amazing beach hotels and trendy stays in Todos Santos.
Todos Santos, in Mexico’s Baja California Sur, is a magical part of the country—so much so that in 2006, its government designated it a “Pueblo Mágico,” or “Magic Town,” a distinction awarded for natural beauty, cultural richness or historical significance. Initially founded as a mission in 1724, today it’s a haven for artists, surfers, and visitors.
Just an hour from the town of La Paz and an hour from the bustling Cabo San Lucas, Todos Santos feels a world away. Removed from the massive cruise ships and large resorts of Los Cabos, it’s an oasis perfect for relaxing, recharging, and getting in touch with nature. With mountains, desert, and ocean all converging in this little slice of paradise, you’ll have plenty of opportunities.
Among hotels and resorts in Todos Santos, there’s no shortage of boutique stays, beachfront properties and budget-friendly options that integrate into the local scenery and feature the laid-back, boho-chic vibe this area is known for.
