About Rancho Corazón
Rancho Corazón is an eclectic outdoor event venue and restaurant retreat located just a few blocks from Todos Santos’s main plaza. Nestled in a lush palm grove near Baja’s Pacific coast, it offers a “beautiful natural landscape with] modern/rustic charm” in a secluded setting yet just a five-minute walk to the town’s shops and restaurants ([www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). The site features a thatch-roofed palapa bar and lounge, towering palm trees, and an adult-only infinity pool, all set against a desert-sky backdrop. Guests often describe it as a “bohemian” jungle oasis – one visitor wrote that they were “stunned” by the mix of pool, stage, bar and tables tucked among the trees (enjoyloscaboslife.com ). In fact, it’s carefully built around existing nature: the venue uses natural underground irrigation so that construction only filled in where needed, preserving much of the original oasis character (www.destinoloscabos.com ). Chef Aurelien Legeay, a French Master Chef, runs the full-service DŪM restaurant here, emphasizing local ingredients and seasonal menus (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ) (www.destinoloscabos.com ). Rancho Corazón has an open-air, relaxed vibe – more like a desert cul-de-sac than a nightclub – and it prides itself on an off-the-beaten-track, authentic Todos Santos experience. (Locals even call Todos Santos a “Pueblo Mágico” or magical town, reflecting the unique cultural ambiance of the setting.)
Despite its backcountry feel, Rancho Corazón is well equipped for large gatherings. The property spans dozens of acres, including two dining areas, a poolside bar, an outdoor stage and lush gardens. A wedding listing notes the campus has “two restaurants, an infinity heated pool, and] a corral” (for horses) among its flexible event spaces ([www.bodas.com.mx ). Overall capacity is up to around 400 guests (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ) (www.bodas.com.mx ). There are no fixed seats or bleachers – instead the layout is open, with tables, benches, lounge chairs and palapa-covered areas scattered under the palms. For seated events, guests can choose shady lounge cabanas by the pool or classic table seating under open sky. In general, the closer you are to the stage or bar, the better the sound (the stage area is uncovered). The best vantage points are on the low sloping lawns around the stage and pool, though the entire venue is quite open. In practice, seating is arranged per event – for example, a recent wedding used picnic tables and daybeds so guests could move freely across the whole property (enjoyloscaboslife.com ). In short, Rancho Corazón is more “festival-style” than fixed-theater – you can mingle, walk around, or lounge by the pool while enjoying the setting.
Events and Programming
Rancho Corazón is best known as a private-event venue rather than a traditional ticketed concert hall. Weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays and corporate retreats are typical here. For example, its website notes that up to 400 guests can celebrate weddings, anniversaries or work retreats in style (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). The in-house catering team (led by Chef Legeay) can tailor menus and cocktails for any occasion, often combining fine dining with local flair. That said, the royal weddings or elaborate celebrations held here are sometimes featured in media. One notable example: a 2023 LGBTQ+ “Desert Disco”-themed wedding spanned an entire week of events, from a mariachi welcome party to a jungle-aesthetic ceremony at Rancho Corazón (dancingwithher.com ). The couple praised Rancho Corazón for its “stunning views” and “Michelin Guide-worthy food” from DŪM (dancingwithher.com ), and even used the pool for their grand exit – illustrating how flexible the space can be. In other words, Rancho Corazón can handle anything from a laid-back Fiesta Mexicana to a full-scale desert gala.
In addition to private bookings, Rancho Corazón hosts a few recurring or public events, especially live music nights. According to visitor reviews, they feature local bands or jazz/R&B acts most evenings. For instance, one review notes that there is “live music on Monday nights” (a band called Soultide) along with craft cocktails (wanderlog.com ). Throughout the week you might hear anything from smooth soul to world beats drifting through the palms. The pool bar (open Thur–Mon) often has background music or DJs in the later afternoon. Although the venue isn’t primarily promoted as a concert venue, it does pop up on local event calendars when a special performance or holiday party is scheduled. Typically, events are announced via social media or community bulletin boards rather than having a fixed season. Regular highlights include holiday gatherings (Day of the Dead dinners, etc.), charity fundraisers and themed parties. Ticket prices for such events can vary widely: small concerts or band nights may have no cover or a nominal entry fee, while weddings and private parties are not open to the public. As one reviewer observed, some nights are more upscale with craft cocktails, while others feel like a casual neighborhood bar ambiance (wanderlog.com ). Regardless, Rancho Corazón is a hub of local culture – perfect for a dance party under the stars, a poolside brunch set-up, or simply a relaxed evening with live guitar tunes.
Tickets and Booking
Rancho Corazón does not have a traditional box office or online ticket portal for public events; instead, most bookings are made by contacting the venue directly. For private events (weddings, corporate retreats, large parties) you generally work with the events manager. The venue’s website and staff will put together a package including space rental, catering, and any extras. There are no walk-up ticket sales for these, and you usually must reserve months in advance. For example, couples planning weddings often secure dates a year out, and corporate retreats will sign contracts to lock in the space. Contact information and estimates are provided by the venue (the staff on site is multilingual, so English booking inquiries are welcome). Note that if you book a large event here, Rancho Corazón’s team will handle everything from tables and chairs to sound system – it’s a full-service venue.
For general visitors, there are two main ways to “experience” Rancho Corazón: the restaurant DŪM or the day pass for the pool and bar. DŪM follows a fine-dining format and requires a reservation – you can book through their website or OpenTable (it is closed Tue–Wed and may take a summer break each year (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com )). Menus change weekly based on seasonal ingredients, so prices vary by season, but expect higher-end dinner pricing (tasting menus, etc.). The pool and bar are open to drop-in visitors Thur–Mon (11am–6pm) for a day pass. As the official site notes, an adult day pass costs 500 pesos (about $25 USD) per person, and these passes are credit toward drinks (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). In other words, you pay 500 pesos up front and then any bar or cocktail purchases come off that tab. Children sometimes get a reduced rate or free entry (check with staff). No advance tickets are needed for the pool – just show up and purchase at the door, space permitting. Keep in mind that busy holiday weekends or special events may sell out day passes, so call ahead. Any food or drinks beyond the pass credit are pay-as-you-go. Basically, you can lounge by the pool or bar like at a resort – just buy the day ticket when you arrive and keep your drink tab running.
Seating and Layout
The layout at Rancho Corazón is entirely open-air and sprawling. There are no fixed stadium seats or rows – instead, the grounds are arranged in multiple “zones.” Closest to the entrance are shaded lounge areas and the main bar, then a stage and dining garden, and beyond that the pool with its sunbeds. For big events, rows of banquet tables can be set up on the lawn or gravel, but most evenings feel like free-flowing cocktail parties. If you want front-row sound, standing near the stage or bar terrace is best. For a chill experience, many guests opt for the poolside deck chairs and hammocks under the palms – these offer great sunset views. Covered palapas and cabanas provide refuge when the sun is strong. In short, the “sections” unfold in a semicircle: outdoor kitchen/restaurant areas, then a stage area with loose seating, and then the centerpiece infinity pool. Acoustic-wise, sound carries well over the flat terrain so there aren’t bad blocked sightlines. (Just note that large trees can cast shade or obstruct only if you purposely stand right behind them.) Some couples use the pool as an impromptu “honors table” spot or lounge, which shows how versatile the layout is. There are also smaller side-gardens and a fenced corral that have been used for photo shoots or cocktail corners. Overall, the best viewing/meeting points depend on the event – usually near the pool for casual mingling and near the stage or bar for performances. Because everything is on one level, it’s easy to move between areas if you want to chat or dance.
Getting There and Parking
Rancho Corazón is located at Calle Centenario in the La Laguna neighborhood of Todos Santos. In practice, it sits at the far west end of Centenario, which runs parallel to the town’s main street (Benito Juarez). To find it, go by either foot or car to downtown Todos Santos and take the little side street just north of the plaza. That is Calle Centenario. Follow this narrow road west past several small resorts – it eventually turns to dirt and dead-ends at the ranch entrance. Local reports note “it is at the end of Centenario on a dirt road” (enjoyloscaboslife.com ), so keep an eye out for a Rancho Corazón sign. The official address is C. Centenario, La Laguna, 23300 Todos Santos (sg.trip.com ). If you use GPS or Google Maps, searching “Rancho Corazón” will guide you correctly, but watch that final unpaved stretch.
Parking at the ranch is free but limited, so it’s wise to plan ahead. There is a gravel lot near the restaurant/pool entrance that holds maybe a few dozen cars. For large events, the staff often arranges overflow parking (sometimes on adjacent lots or a neighboring ranch) and shuttles as needed. If lot space is full, you may need to park on the street near Casa Tota or use a local lot (Hotels like Casa Tota or Hotel California have their own parking). In general, Todos Santos has metered parking in the center, but Rancho Corazón is congested only during big events. Because of the narrow road, ride-shares or taxis often drop guests right at the entrance. (Note: Uber is active in Todos Santos and commonly used for both local runs and airport transfers.) Public transit is minimal here – there’s no bus route directly to the ranch. The easiest access is by car or taxi. From the highway (Hwy 19), you enter Todos Santos and look for signposts to “Todos Santos Pueblo Mágico,” then turn onto Centenario. If you’re walking from the town center, it’s roughly a 10–15-minute stroll west along Centenario. In summary: drive carefully, allow a few extra minutes for the dirt stretch, and never block the entrance. The ranch itself will direct you to an open space if they have one, or you may have to park in an approved overflow area a short distance away.
Inside the Venue
Stepping inside Rancho Corazón feels like entering a private tropical hideaway. Security is typically minimal – staff may check wristbands or invitations for events, but there is usually no bag search unless required by a specific act or local law. When visiting the pool or restaurant, just head to the receptionist/kitchen gate. The atmosphere is casual and social. You’ll find servers and mixologists roaming in loose attire under palapas, colorful market-style lanterns hung in trees, and wooden signage pointing the way to restrooms or the parking lot. The mood is festive yet laid-back; teenage kids often splash in the pool while adults chat at the bar. For food and drinks, the main hubs are the DŪM restaurant courtyard (for full meals) and the poolside bar (for casual eats and cocktails). The drink menu is extensive – expect craft margaritas, cold cervezas, and agave-based cocktails made with local spirits. There is also a natural wine selection and fresh tropical juices. Many guests note the bar’s house Gin and tonics and micheladas are especially popular under the sun.
Restroom facilities are located near the dining area and by the pool; they are basic but clean (no showers or locker rooms). There is no coat check – you’ll keep belongings with you (most people carry small bags or fanny packs). Wi-Fi is available in dining areas (good enough for pictures) but service at pool/backyard can be spotty – cell service depends on your provider in Todos Santos. There is no ATM on-site, so plan accordingly (there may be cash-only tabs for some events, though credit cards are usually accepted at the restaurant). If you need ice or pool toys, they are sometimes available for rent at the bar. Smoking is permitted in outdoor areas only (by the pool or bar). If arriving to a large event, guests often check coats or large bags with event staff; otherwise carry-on only. Dress code is very relaxed – flip-flops, sun hats and resort wear are entirely appropriate. One insider tip: since this is a working farm-type setting, bring insect repellent even for evenings (the palm grove can attract mosquitos at dusk). Overall, expect a resort-style vibe: friendly servers, background music, and plenty of colorful decor. You might even catch the pool doubling as a dance floor or photo booth area once the party gets going.
Food-wise, the heart of Rancho Corazón is DŪM, the high-end restaurant under the palms. Open Thursday through Monday, 4pm–9pm (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ), it offers a prix-fixe tasting menu in the evening (often outdoors on a deck overlooking the grounds). Lunches and brunches are less common, so most lunchtimes the venue operates as an event space or pool club. On pool/bar days (Thu–Mon 11am–6pm (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com )), expect casual fare: ceviche, tacos, salads and upscale bar snacks. Service is friendly and multilingual (servers speak English and Spanish). Towels and lounge chairs are provided for day pass holders, and an attendant cleans them between uses. Note that pets are generally not allowed except for service dogs. The overall attitude is “let the good times roll” – bartenders often know regulars by name and welcome newcomers with a shot of tequila. Alcohol and food are only served to guests 18+ (proof of age is checked). There is a mild “no outside alcohol” rule – reviewers say management enforces drink prices (one guest was told no after trying to bring wine) (wanderlog.com ). So plan to enjoy Rancho’s cocktails rather than sneaking in your own bottle. In short, expect an open-air hacienda atmosphere inside the gates, with all conveniences of a modern event space and a fully equipped bar/restaurant.
Nearby Amenities
Rancho Corazón is convenient to the heart of Todos Santos, so many amenities are within walking distance. Right across the street is La Poza, a boutique bed-and-breakfast recently renovated by the same owners (es.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). Nearby lodging includes Hotel Casa Tota (a 7-minute walk away (es.ranchocorazonbaja.com )) and Villa del Faro (about 10 minutes on foot), both popular for travelers. The town center (Benito Juarez Street) has dozens of restaurants an easy stroll from the ranch. For pre-dinner meals, you might head to Hotel California’s renowned Benno Restaurant or the lively Paleteria La Flor for snacks and drinks. Closer still, a modern favorite is La Esquina, serving contemporary Mexican dishes just around the corner. Casual spots like Landi’s (pizza and Italian food) and El Mirador (street tacos) are also within a 5–10 minute walk. If you plan to extend your stay, Todos Santos has plenty of shops featuring local art, surf gear, and tequila – perfect for picking up souvenirs before an event.
For drinks before or after a show, consider starting at Landi’s backyard bocce court (with beer and pizza) or the ocean-view bar at the Sea Shell Resort (a 10-minute drive). Within town there are several rooftop bars and mezcalerias that capture the town’s laid-back spirit. Late-night rideshare options (Uber or local taxis) are plentiful on weekends, with fares to the ranch typically around 50–150 pesos from downtown. If you arrive early for a late event, you might also explore the city’s art galleries or hit the beach at Playa Los Cerritos (a popular surf spot 15 minutes by car). Remember, Todos Santos is a small town: almost everything is a short walk or drive away. As one insider advises, “don’t be in a hurry – Todos Santos is about enjoying the day.” For practicalities: the nearest ATM is at the main plaza (City Banamex), and beam-internet is strong downtown. So plan to eat and relax in town before heading over, unless your event has catering.
What Makes This Venue Special
Rancho Corazón stands out for its combination of luxury cuisine, natural charm and privacy. Architecturally, it feels more like a boho jungle retreat than a concrete club. Its collection of palm-shaded pergolas, rustic wood beams and stone accents blend seamlessly with the native landscape. The centerpiece infinity pool – salty like the ocean nearby – is unusually elegant for Todos Santos and often lit with floating candles at night. Culturally, it has quickly become a community hub for upscale yet laid-back gatherings. It brings together international travelers and locals alike: Americans and Canadians holiday with Mexican families and expatriates, all amid the soft rhythms of Latin jazz or bossa nova that are common here. In the words of one newlywed, the ranch was “tucked away like a jungle oasis” that offered “Michelin Guide-worthy” dining from DŪM and “stunning views” of the desert and mountains (dancingwithher.com ). This underlines how the venue manages to feel both exotic and homey at once.
Rancho Corazón also emphasizes sustainability and community. In 2023 its staff achieved a remarkable 73% waste diversion rate – most organic waste is composted on-site and other trash recycled or repurposed (cerobasurabcs.org ). The kitchen’s commitment to local agriculture means most ingredients come from regional farms, helping Todos Santos’s food economy. This green ethos has earned the team a “Zero Waste” commendation by a Baja conservation group (cerobasurabcs.org ). Many big events here (like weddings for prominent social-justice families) weave in local traditions – mariachi band welcomes, Mexican chocolate, or beach ceremonies – highlighting the ranch’s cultural integration. The mix of high-end design and rustic setting has made Rancho Corazón a magnet for creative industries, too: music videos, photo shoots and even small film crews have shot scenes here. All this contributes to an ambiance you won’t find at a standard hotel ballroom – it feels more like a curated living space than a rental hall.
Finally, the venue has a track record of memorable moments. Personal testimonials often cite a few “legendary” nights: lobster bakes by moonlight, surprise fireworks on the lawn, or dance parties that spill into the pool at midnight. One couple’s wedding even ended with them jumping into the pool fully clothed, to the cheers of their guests (dancingwithher.com ). Another frequent mention is the food: Chef Legeay was personally named a “Zero Waste Agent” for diverting thousands of kilos from the landfill, reflecting his visionary leadership (cerobasurabcs.org ) (cerobasurabcs.org ). Local guides and publications now include Rancho Corazón when talking up Todos Santos’s edgier side; it’s widely considered a must-visit for anyone who wants the town’s best sunset mojito or innovative dinner at DŪM. In short, Rancho Corazón matters to the community because it marries Todos Santos’s creative, eco-conscious spirit with truly professional event services – something that was scarce in the area before.
Visitor Tips and Information
Accessibility: The grounds are mostly flat but on dirt and gravel surfaces, so navigating with a wheelchair or stroller can be challenging. There are no formal ramps or lifts, and the entry road is unpaved. Bring sturdy footwear if you have mobility issues. Restrooms are ground-level but fairly basic (they have at least one handicap stall). If anyone in your party requires assistance, it’s best to call ahead so staff can arrange help or ensure paths are clear. Quiet areas for sensitive guests can be found under covered palapas by the pool if you need a break from traffic.
What to Bring: Sunscreen, hat and sunglasses in daytime (the Baja sun is intense even in winter). If you plan to swim, bring swimwear and cover-ups; towels and chairs are provided with day passes. For events into the evening, bring a light jacket or shawl – desert nights can cool off quickly. Comfortable shoes are recommended (it’s a very casual setting, but it can get rocky around the palms). In case of bugs, insect repellent is wise once the sun goes down near the palms. Don’t forget cash or cards for any extras – cash is handy for tips or small vendors, but the bar and restaurant take credit cards as well. Finally, pack a positive attitude: come ready to mingle and enjoy a carefree vibe (it is bracingly informal, not a starchy ballroom).
Common Mistakes to Avoid: The biggest mistake is arriving at the wrong time. Rancho Corazón is closed to the public on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (as noted on their site and Google hours (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ) (wanderlog.com )). Plan your visit for Thur–Mon. Another pitfall is parking: don’t leave valuables in your car in remote lots, and watch out not to block any side streets. People sometimes bring “outside” wine or margaritas, but management enforces their bar policies (wanderlog.com ) – better to buy drinks on site. Also, since the grounds are pet-friendly only for service animals, don’t bring pets expecting open pet park access. Many visitors also mention that “arriving fashionably late” can be a disadvantage – events here often start early and the best seats or pool chairs fill up quickly. So if you want a particular lounger or table, get there early. Finally, note that many cameras get tossed around for fun, but professional tripods or drone filming usually requires prior permission due to privacy and safety concerns.
Dress Code and Comfort: There is no formal dress code, but think “elegant casual.” Flowing sundresses, linen trousers, collared shirts, and nice sandals are all common. Many guests dress up a bit for dinner at DŪM (the high-end restaurant); nights can be romantic, so smart-casual is safest. That said, if you’re attending a pool-day or daytime concert, anything from board shorts to a light sundress is fine. On cooler nights, a soft cardigan or leather jacket is perfect. Sunglasses and hats will keep the sun off your skin during the day. Most people skip ties or high heels – this is a chill, barefoot-in-the-grass kind of spot.
Insider Tips: If you want to maximize the experience, try the timeline: Arrive early in the afternoon to grab a poolside lounger and enjoy the craft cocktails (the house gin-and-tonic is locally famous). Explore the venue – they have quiet garden nooks and a small corral that few guests notice, which are great for photos or a break. Touch base with the mixologist, Jorge Ochoa, who often curates special cocktails on request. Sunset is magical here – many locals recommend timing your trip so you’re sipping from a swim-up bar or hammock as the sky turns pink. After dark, the lighting is subtle but beautiful (don’t miss the fairy lights in the trees). Lastly, join any communal dancing – it’s common for guests to end up in the pool or on the makeshift dance floor when the music picks up.
What are the operating hours of Rancho Corazón?
Most of Rancho Corazón’s facilities operate Thursday through Monday. The restaurant (DŪM) is open Thursday–Monday 4pm–9pm (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ), and the pool and bar are open Thursday–Monday 11am–6pm (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). The venue is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
What is the capacity of Rancho Corazón?
The venue can accommodate large events. It has a capacity of up to about 400 people (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). This includes open lawns and the pool deck for guests. It’s often used for weddings and corporate retreats where tables and chairs are arranged as needed.
How much does the pool day pass cost?
Adult day passes cost 500 Mexican pesos per person (roughly $25 USD) (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). This fee is credited toward drink purchases at the pool bar. Children usually have a lower rate or free admission. The passes are bought on-site, and you can then sit by the pool and order from the bar.
Do I need to make a reservation for DŪM restaurant?
Yes. DŪM is a full-service tasting menu restaurant run by Chef Aurelien Legeay (www.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). It is advisable to reserve in advance, especially for dinner. Reservations can be made via OpenTable or by calling the venue. Note that the restaurant is only open Thursday–Monday evenings (4pm–9pm). The menu changes weekly and requires a seated dining reservation.
Is Rancho Corazón family-friendly?
Yes, Rancho Corazón welcomes families. There is a child-friendly vibe by day – kids can swim in the pool or play on the lawns (there is no separate kids’ club, but the open space and shade make it manageable). For events and dinner, it’s still generally relaxed; families often attend weddings and dinners here. Only the bar service is 18+ (they will check IDs for alcohol). In short, it’s much more family-friendly than a nightclub. Just remember to supervise children around the pool and in outdoor areas at night.
How do I get to Rancho Corazón from downtown Todos Santos?
It's about a 5–10 minute walk from the main plaza. From downtown, walk west along Calle Centenario. The road becomes dirt, and you’ll see Rancho Corazón signage at the end (enjoyloscaboslife.com ). By car, take the exit off Highway 19 into Todos Santos (signs to “Pueblo Mágico”), then turn onto Centenario. Follow it until it dead-ends at the ranch entrance. There is free parking on-site (though limited), or drop-off by taxi/Uber at the entrance. Note: Uber and local taxis both serve Todos Santos regularly.
Are there any age or dress code restrictions?
Rancho Corazón is casual and open to all ages. There is no formal dress code; beach resort attire is common. For daytime/pool visits, summer clothes are fine. Evenings can be slightly dressier (casual sundresses, collared shirts), especially if dining at the restaurant. However, no formal gown or shirt-and-tie is required unless your event specifies it. Children and babies are allowed (except at the bar service area). As with most Mexican venues, it’s polite to avoid overly revealing outfits, but otherwise dress for comfort in the tropical setting.
Is Rancho Corazón wheelchair accessible?
Accessibility is limited due to the outdoor, rustic nature of the site. The paths and main areas are mostly level but unpaved (dirt or gravel), which can be bumpy. There are no elevators or ramps (almost everything is on one ground level). Restrooms may not be fully ADA-equipped. If mobility issues are a concern, we recommend calling the venue ahead of time. Some staff members may assist with chairs or direct you to the flattest routes. Note that seating, tables and restrooms are all ground-level, so in principle a wheelchair can move around most areas, but it won’t be as smooth as in a fully paved venue.
Can I take photos or videos inside the venue?
Yes, personal photography and videography are welcome (it’s very Instagram-friendly!). Guests and artists often snap photos by the pool and gardens. However, for large events (weddings, concerts), be mindful of privacy – always follow the photographer’s directions. Drone use is generally not allowed without permission, due to privacy and safety rules. Professional camera crews or equipment usually require prior arrangement with management. Smartphones and cameras are fine; just be respectful of others’ space while capturing the tropical scenery.
What amenities are available on-site?
Key amenities include a full bar and restaurant, restrooms, lounge chairs and towels by the pool, outdoor showers (near the pool), and shaded palapa seating. There is a small shop area in the events building for party favors or ice, and free Wi-Fi in the dining areas. The venue provides sound equipment and stage lighting for events. For comfort, they offer sunscreen and bug spray on request. There is no ATM on premises (bring cash if you need it), but the staff accept cards. Power outlets and charging stations are generally reserved for events (your phone should last a day on outdoor).
Which restaurants and hotels are close to Rancho Corazón?
Right next door is La Poza, a small boutique hotel with a natural lagoon (es.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). Within a 5–10 minute walk are the popular Hotel California (and its Benno restaurant), Landi’s (Italian/pizza), La Esquina (Mexican cuisine), and Tejas Gourmet (organic café). A 7-minute stroll takes you to Casa Tota boutique hotel (es.ranchocorazonbaja.com ). Other nearby accommodations include La Bohemia and Casa de Piedra a little farther. If dining, try Hotel San Cristóbal’s restaurant or the beachfront Café Santa Fe by taxi (10–15 min drive). Todos Santos is small enough that the main street has nearly every type of cuisine, all a short walk or quick taxi ride from the ranch.
