Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Resort & Spa

I’m going through vacation withdrawals.  Badly.  Between this contentious campaign season and early signs of a brutal Chicago winter, I’d love to be whisked away to a peaceful and beautiful destination for a few weeks.  I’d return in time to vote.  Promise.  There are a myriad of places I’d go right now if I could: Ghana, South Africa and Tanzania at the top of the list.  However, a quick trip to Cabo is definitely feasible.  This summer, we spent several days in Cabo San Lucas, one of my favorite places on Earth.  We stayed at the adult-only and all-inclusive property Pueblo Bonito Resort & Spa.  Tranquility flowed from the lobby to meet us upon climbing out of the shuttle.  As the doormen opened the door to welcome us, the spa-like smell of lavender and eucalyptus hit our olfactory nerves in the most pleasant way.  Another greeter quickly met us with a refreshing towel and sparkling wine.  The hospitality didn’t cease once we completed our check-in process, but remained throughout the entirety of our stay.  Yeah, I could go for that right now.

And what’s a trip to Mexico without a shot of tequila . . .
