Rancho Leonero Resort
East
Cape Baja, Mexico
On the Sea of Cortez side
of the sun-drenched southern Baja, where the legendary peninsula
juts into the tropical zones, the palm-thatched, king-sized guest
rooms and "main house" of Rancho Leonero punctuate the
broad green lawns of a tropical clearing of a 350-acre corner of
"Old Baja", nose-to-nose with the pristine blue sea.
Fishing and sportsman's paradise,
where coconut palms bend gracefully over two miles of dazzling
unspoiled beaches; it's a place like no other. Set well apart from
other "East Cape" hotels, this handsomely tropical
flower-studded resort stands in intimate relationship with the sea
itself. Cradled by the mythical Laguna Mountains, it provides a
comfortable and friendly sanctuary for those who want to truly
experience the Cortez.
Even without the big-time game
fishing, Rancho Leonero would be a vacationer's dream. The sit-down
family-style meals are spectacular and the laid back, intimate style
of the place is truly unique in the entire world. Owner John Ireland
is likely to greet you personally; the staff is friendly and
available; and the service is first rate. Like Cheers, it's a place
"where everybody knows your name."
If you are seeking a memorable
family-fun vacation in the unique atmosphere of one of the world's
last great nature frontiers, or intent on setting a new game fishing
record (or both), Rancho Leonero has all the facilities for full
participation in your Cortez experience. Not only do 1,000-pound
black and blue marlin prowl these waters, but striped marlin,
sailfish, dorado, huge yellowfin tuna, yellowtail, wahoo, grouper,
snapper, roosterfish and dozens of incidentals swarm over undersea
canyons and drop-offs within a mile of shore.
Surf fishing along the famous
"double reef" directly in front of the ranch is
spectacular. If big game fishing is what you are after, Rancho
Leonero sports a complete fleet of inexpensive pangas (Mexican
skiffs), larger center console "super pangas", and roomy
sport-fishers up to 40 feet, all at affordable prices, all with
superlative local guides who know how to put you on the fish.
Writes Neil Kelly, author of the
definitive Baja fishing book, The Baja Catch, "This 40-mile
stretch of the Cortez is the Grand Premiere class of all of Baja's
waters, and few if any places in the world can approach it".
Scuba or snorkeling in the waters
right in front of the ranch is like diving in an aquarium, and the
astonishing Pulmo Reef nearby (the only living coral reef on the
pacific side of the Northern Hemisphere) is something no diver
should miss in a lifetime.
