Villa del Palmar Loreto
Villa Group Resorts Announces
Villa Del Palmar Loreto on Schedule for January 2011 Opening
Mexico’s
Premier Private Hotel Group Continues Expansion with Resort Opening in Baja’s
Breathtaking New Vacation Destination
Loreto Bay, Mexico --
07/12/2010 -- The Villa Group, one of Mexico’s largest privately owned hotel
groups, continues its strategic growth with new properties, expansions and
renovations to provide guests at every property with superior hospitality in
premier oceanfront destinations. The latest jewel scheduled for the company’s
crown is Villa del Palmar Loreto, a $60 million, world-class, five-star resort
featuring 171 villas, all with views of the Sea of Cortez, tennis courts,
free-form multi-level swimming pools, several restaurants and five-star
amenities. Villa del Palmar Loreto will open the first phase of its resort
facilities in January 2011, including all stunning villa accommodations, a
35,000 square-foot spa and fitness center, and three restaurants, including a
fine dining ocean front restaurant, a sushi and seafood eatery and an
international buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Set in a spectacularly secluded area along the Sea of Cortez, Villa del Palmar
marks the first property in Villa Group’s 1,800 acre development named “Danzante
Bay.” The master plan calls for a five-year timeline at the end of which
Danzante Bay will feature seven resort hotels including a Villa La Estancia, 240
home sites, additional restaurants and a Rees Jones golf course – all with
Loreto’s little known collection of islands in the Sea of Cortez as their
ocean-front view.
“This is a great time to be in construction in the Baja Peninsula,” said Owen
Perry, one of Villa Group Resorts’ three owners. “We have the most skilled
craftsmen anywhere and work has progressed smoothly and quickly. Loreto and its
surrounding islands are perfectly poised to take off as a destination in a way
that will enhance the community without detracting from the natural beauty of
this breathtaking environment. As the first major developer here, we are
thrilled to be leading Loreto into the future.”
Located a little more than midway down the Baja Peninsula, the area has long
been known as a rustic setting famed for its 1697 Mission – one of the first of
the historic California Missions – and the majestic Sierra de la Giganta
mountains that back the city. However, a lesser known attraction is the largely
protected and pristine marine environment at the city’s front door. Home to five
secluded islands – Coronado, Del Carmen, Danzante, Montserrate and Santa
Catalina, Loreto has ensured that both the islands and the water are protected
from commercial development, fishing and any damaging sporting activity.
Preserved for non-impactful enjoyment, the “Islands of Loreto” are home to 900
species of reef dwelling and migratory fish, and are a wonderland for sport
fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, whale watching, day trips for
island hiking, sun bathing, picnicking, and evening excursions for romantic
sunsets and private dinners on the sand. Reachable by water taxis or kayaks, the
islands vary in size and scope – but all offer the joys of nature undeterred.
Danzante Bay is located about 20 minutes from downtown
Loreto and the Loreto airport. Within easy access are the city’s charming
restaurants, shops, nightlife and marina. Hotel Santa Fe, another Villa Group
property, is located in the heart of Loreto’s tranquil center. This 118-room
hotel features colonial design and décor and reflects the beauty and simplicity
of the Baja region. Loreto’s appeal as a romantic escape, outdoor enthusiasts’
dream, historic setting and cultural enclave are legendary among the niche set
of travelers “in the know.”
Today, Loreto, with its surrounding seascape and mountain range, is poised for
prime time.
About Loreto
Loreto is located in the northeastern region in the state of Baja California Sur,
217 miles north of La Paz. The climate is mild and warm, with an average
temperatura of 82º F. Loreto is home to diverse natural attractions, such as the
Bahia de Loreto Marine Park, which consists of a group of islands that offer
ideal conditions for scuba diving, fishing and nature observing. Also of
interest is the Sierra la Giganta, an area with mountainous terrain that is
optimal for climbing and biking. In the surrounding areas one will find the most
famous cave paintings on the peninsula at the Sierra de San Francisco as well as
the baroque missions San Javier and Nuestra Señora de Loreto, which are the
oldest in the region. Local seafood, a tranquil city center, charming
restaurants, lively nightlife, shopping and gallery hopping are only a few of
Loreto’s additional pastimes. Airlift continues to expand and make access to
this destination more viable to U.S. citizens all the time.

The Villa Group Announces Two New
Developments In Mexico
|
|
The Villa Group has announced
that it has successfully completed the purchase of oceanfront parcels in
Punta Cancun and on the bay of Ensenada Blanca in Loreto, Baja California
Sur, Mexico, and is now in the design and construction phase of destination
resorts in both locations. Upon completion of these four new properties, The
Villa Group resort portfolio will expand to 12.
“With the proven success of
our Villa La Estancia and Villa del Palmar brands in Cabo San Lucas and
Puerto Vallarta, our plan is to build these properties side by side in other
destinations,” said Owen Perry, one of The Villa Group’s owners. New
developments will be fashioned like the company’s self-contained resort
complex in Cabo San Lucas, where guests and owners of adjacent properties
have access to multiple restaurants, a health spa, fitness center, tennis
courts, a super market and other services.
The two distinctive property
styles have positioned The Villa Group as a company providing a compelling
vacation solution for a broad range of clients. Villa del Palmar offers
versatility as a hotel and timeshare resort, while Villa La Estancia is
flexible with fractional and full ownership opportunities, as well as
vacation rentals for high-end clientele.
“We’re one of the first
companies to successfully integrate all of these real estate and vacation
products under one umbrella,” Perry remarked.
“We’ve blended resort stays and vacation home ownership together, and have a
sales team in place to help our clients enhance their lifestyle in both
areas.”
Each of the oceanfront
parcels in both destinations offers easy access to safe swimming, snorkeling
and other water-bound activities. The Villa Group properties typically
feature dramatic ocean views and high-end amenities such as themed spas,
conference facilities, gourmet and specialty restaurants, landscaped
walkways leading to multiple freeform swimming pools with Jacuzzis,
expansive beach areas and on-site markets. Loreto will also include an
18-hole golf course.
Reflecting The Villa Group’s
goal for continued growth, the new developments will add to the company’s
existing 60,000-plus timeshare
owners and expanding real estate client list. “We have established a
significant customer base of regular visitors who love our Villa del Palmar
and Villa La Estancia brands, and are confident that existing and new
customers will find these new Villa Group developments equally attractive,”
Perry added.
