Villa La Datcha
Description
At Villa La Datcha, the first sound you hear is the Pacific—slow, steady breakers rolling onto Pedregal’s golden crescent as sunrise streams amber light across hand-tiled courtyards and through arcades.
This 20,000-square-foot hacienda, which is located at the southernmost tip of Baja California, where the desert meets deep blue water, effortlessly reimagines old-world grandeur. Locally made furniture, carved doors, painted nichos, fountains, and shaded patios are interspersed throughout the interiors’ vibrant colors and rich textures, inviting you to move from salon to terrace to pool without ever losing sight of the ocean. A late breakfast beneath the portals, a swim in the salty breeze, or a siesta on the upper terrace while fishing boats sail by are just a few of the natural activities that take place there on long, sunny days.
Villa La Datcha’s suites are all beautifully and comfortably designed, combining a striking Mexican color scheme with ample space, private ensuite bathrooms, and walk-in closets to make unpacking feel like you’re moving into your own beachfront home. Ten bedrooms serve as the focal point of milestone celebrations and multigenerational vacations, and the two oceanfront primary suites serve as peaceful havens.
One opens to a private fireside terrace for cool desert evenings, while the other slides straight onto the pool deck, making it easy to jump in the pool in the morning. The beach path is just beyond your gate, dining areas encircle the pool for easy alfresco meals, and the soundscape is a gentle duet of palms and Pacific. The house’s rhythm is as evident outside as it is inside.
In both spirit and practice, the service provided here is inclusive. From market runs and menu planning to last-minute yacht charters and celebratory dinners, a house manager discreetly plans every aspect of the day. The private gym is well-equipped for actual workouts; you can then recuperate in the spa wing, which has a Turkish bath, sauna, and a special massage room. Alternatively, you can schedule a therapist and trainer to transform the afternoon into a wellness ritual.
Sunrise walks and sunset viewing become daily rituals because of Cabo’s ideal climate, which includes up to 350 sunny days annually and sea temperatures that range from the low 20s °C in the winter to the high 20s °C in the summer. The villa’s pools and the serene waters of nearby Médano Beach are your best bet for safe swims and water toys. When you do venture down to the sand, keep in mind that you’re on the dramatic Pacific side, where it’s usually best for strolling and whale-spotting rather than swimming.
Without sacrificing privacy, the location in Pedregal, Cabo San Lucas, puts the best of the place conveniently close by. The granite spires of Land’s End sit just around the point for picture-perfect cruises, the waterfront is lined with iconic restaurants and fine-casual spots, and the marina is the starting point for world-class offshore fishing. At Villa La Datcha, shaded courtyards catch the afternoon breeze, the pool reflects the sky, and the only thing left to decide is whether to serve dinner on the upper terrace with its lantern glow or on the poolside mesa as the surf turns silver. Even on busy weekends, the gated, cobblestoned lanes of Pedregal feel leisurely.
Activities near the villa include snorkeling and a beach day at Santa María or Chileno on the calmer Sea of Cortez; a private sportfishing charter for marlin and dorado from the Cabo San Lucas marina; and a sunset sail to El Arco with champagne and stargazing on the way back.
Travel times and distances (useful hints): Villa La Datcha is located in Pedregal on the Pacific side of Cabo, roughly 22.877° N, 109.913° W, and southwest of the Cabo San Lucas Marina. Grocery shopping is simple; depending on traffic, it takes about 10 to 15 minutes to get to Costco and La Comer by car, and about 10 minutes to get to Walmart.
The informal trail up Mount Solmar for panoramic views starts around the marina dog kennel area about ten minutes away, and boat taxis to El Arco leave from the same waterfront for a ten to fifteen minute ride. Marina restaurants and the waterfront promenade are approximately seven to ten minutes’ drive away. The main swimmable strand of Cabo, Médano Beach on the Sea of Cortez, is about 12 to 15 minutes away by car, and Chileno or Santa María bays are usually 20 to 25 minutes away along the tourist corridor.
Arrival & logistics: Los Cabos International Airport (SJD) is the main entry point and is open all year round. In typical circumstances, the drive to Pedregal should take 45 to 60 minutes, but during busy holiday seasons, it may take up to 75 minutes. Private aviation is allowed at Cabo San Lucas International (CSL), which is about a 20–30 minute drive away. The last 1-2 kilometers to Villa La Datcha wind through the gated, paved, and frequently steep cobblestone roads of Pedregal; a standard sedan works well, but a midsize SUV provides more comfort and clearance on hills. The most convenient option is a private transfer that has been scheduled in advance; rental car parking is available on the property.
Unique value proposition: Villa La Datcha is the only authentic oceanfront Pedregal mansion that combines ten fully furnished suites with a private spa wing (massage, hammam, and sauna), all-inclusive service, and genuine hacienda architecture. It offers resort-level amenities in a private, licensed estate along with cinematic Pacific frontage.
