Ignacia Guest House

...home to tree-lined esplanades, sceney restaurants from world-renowned chefs, stunning architecture, and Mexico City’s reigning axis of cool…the edgier Roma is where you’ll find third-wave coffee shops and pricey hipster boutiques.

[There are] sparkling parks of palms and jacarandas, galleries, traditional markets, boutiques, world-class restaurants and places to stay. There are tacos you can try everywhere, and mezcal bars to unwind in. Roma is teeming with hip Mexican creative types and expats, with most streets spilling over with restaurants, bars and cafes.

Filled with fin de siècle mansions, art deco dwellings, and art nouveau–style storefronts, any architecture lover needs to stroll through this colonia. Originally a middle-class residential neighborhood, it was left destroyed after a massive earthquake rocked Mexico City in 1985. Today, La Roma has found new life as a hot spot for artists, 20-somethings, and tourists from all over.

Four Seasons Hotel Mexico City

The Juárez neighborhood has evolved in recent years. Once gritty, the area is now teeming with great boutiques, restaurants, parks, and bars. Unlike Mexico City's ritzy Polanco district, the Juarez is a little more low key."

…much of the stunning late 19th-century architecture remains, making it an attractive spot to explore. Over the last few years, this centrally located neighborhood has seen a revival, becoming one of the capital’s most en vogue areas with new bars, galleries, restaurants and cultural offerings appearing every week.

Casa Polanco Hotel Boutique

A wealthy residential neighborhood northwest of downtown Mexico City, Polanco was originally built up in the 1930s... Today, the colonia is perhaps best known for its art galleries, luxury shopping malls, and high-end dining—it's home to some of Latin America’s best restaurants and a number of cutting-edge cocktail bars.

A small stroll through this buzzy neighborhood is enough to fall in love with its vibrant spirit. In Polanco, office buildings sit side-by-side with luxury apartments and colossal antique residences. The eclectic combination has turned the area into a hub of premier restaurants, international brands, acclaimed museums and galleries…

Las Ventanas al Paraiso, A Rosewood Resort

More than half of the region’s championship-level layouts are located here, including the world-class designs from Jack Nicklaus at Palmilla, El Dorado, and the Ocean Course at Cabo del Sol…Robert Trent Jones II’s Cabo Real course put Los Cabos on the golfing map when whales were spotted breaching near greens during a 1996 PGA Senior Slam event.

This twenty mile stretch of coastline connects Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo. Luxurious resorts, sandy beaches, restaurants, shops, and golf courses line the corridor. Wild Canyon Adventures theme park is also located in the area.

Flora Farms...This 25-acre working farm in San Jose del Cabo is not only Instagram fodder, it’s also home to a restaurant, grocery store, spa and small collection of shops.

San José del Cabo, also home to resorts, restaurants, and golf courses, retains much of its original Spanish colonial architecture, for example the 18th-century Misión de San José del Cabo and its 19th-century City Hall. The Art District and downtown plaza are favorite spots.

…the laidback, colonial town of San José del Cabo has started to steal the spotlight away from luxury resort-lined Cabo San Lucas…the creative community in the town of San José gives travelers plenty of reasons to explore further. Food lovers have already discovered the exceptional farm-to-table cooking…in the town proper, a serious cocktail scene has emerged.
