eorge Clooney’s former beachfront compound is within view from the balcony if, by sheer accident, your eyes have somehow strayed from their trance with that gorgeous blue of the Sea of Cortez, who dares you to not fall in love with her. Salt air, crashing waves and stretches of white beach freckled with rock, tide pools and that indescribable Mexico sky will become your new best friends on this adventure. Although it’s not in Zihuatanejo, I was half expecting to see Red find Andy Dufresne working on his boat down on the beach. If we broke out of Shawshank, we’d head here. Needless to say, this is a rather acceptable neighborhood and the Marquis Los Cabos All Inclusive Resort & Spa is the consummate host.

No kids. No cares. No reason to not indulge in this adult playground along the coast between San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. When the property’s first act upon arrival is gifting you with a watermelon mojito, it is but a mere hint at the top shelf service that awaits.

It’s natural for a sensory overload when you’re presented with the opening chapter of this stunning resort.

The architecture alone deserves its own design tutorial. The outside lobby is ensconced within a giant half dome that was constructed to symbolize the famous Arch of Los Cabos. That’s merely the beginning of the thought provoking art, with a prevalent theme of angel statues and fountains gracing the grounds from artist Jorge Marin. Inside each suite, guests are treated to the original paintings of Agustin Castro with artists like Fernando Garrido, Mercedes Hoyos

and Carlos Rios being showcased across the resort as well.

But, if you’re me, you’re looking for another watermelon mojito and your swim trunks to engage in some form of water retreat. With Marquis Los Cabos’ three pools, this is my likely whereabouts over the coming days. Whether it’s the Sunrise Pool (positioned to enjoy the sunrise for early risers), the main pool or the Sunset Pool (guess what this one looks at), doing nothing never felt so appropriate. The entire property oozes relaxation with service at your beck and call, and this is just the paradise outdoors. The resort’s inner dwellings include an unforgettable spa facility, an exercise room and restaurants that cover their bets with Mexican, Japanese and French cuisine. Additional indoor activities can find a welcoming venue in your respective hotel suite or casita, all with panoramic views of Miss Cortez for miles in every direction.

We implied “adventure” on the grounds and, if you’re the athletic type, then maybe you segment your days with food, drink, tanning, pool time, spa and then take advantage of the volleyball, water aerobics, rifle shooting and the slew of other activities at your disposal through Marquis. Sport fishing, scuba, golf, surfing and horseback riding are all here for the asking. No shortage of palm trees reminds you to smile, breathe, relax and repeat because there’s no better therapy than pampering in Cabo.

Dining

f you do find yourself outside the Marquis confines, there’s plenty of foodie adventures to be had. Los Cabos plays host to an unsuspecting but incomparable dining scene.

For epic views and crashing waves, head into Cabo San Lucas and through the tunnel that leads to The Resort at Pedregal. There, you’ll find two distinctive dining options –El Farallon and Don Manuel’s. The former is one of the region’s most lauded and is, quite literally, tucked into the seaside cliffs. Executive Chef Gustavo Pinet sets the best selection of local catch on mounds of shaved ice, as fish experts guide you through the menu with an old-fashioned scale that weighs each choice. The latter, Don Manuel’s, offers seaside dining that is anything but expected Mexican fare. Think reimagined classics like pork belly and sea bass, fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a creative menu of craft cocktails. On the other side of the corridor, towards old town San Jose del Cabo, sits a tucked away corner replete with unlikely gastronomic superstars. What appears at first glance to be drab outskirts on the wrong side of the tracks, is in fact a growing hub of coveted al fresco eateries. The most notable and established of the bunch is Flora Farms. Few places in the world rival the esoteric sense of cool that the ten stunning acres evoke. Part organic farm, part restaurant, part bar, part retail (there’s even a James Perse concept store on property) part inn and pure magic. Make a reservation for brunch at Flora’s Field Kitchen or head over for a craft cocktail at The Farm Bar. Hint – opt for the Farm Julep, made with fresh watermelon juice. Dinners on property are sublime, with everything from pork chops to pizza to a seasonal vegetable platter that’s out of this world. If you want to extend your stay, book one of the private Culinary Cottages, where guests can revel in the lap of charming luxury as they enjoy the property’s private quarters, on-site cooking classes, a spa garden and swimming pool.

056 SIR AND SPORT FALL WINTER 2016

Nearby is Acre, another farm-to-table joint that’s as ambient as its neighboring Flora Farms, yet with its own distinctive personality. The restaurant and cocktail bar boast chic, modern decor and food and beverage offerings that you’re more apt to see in the confines of Los Angeles or New York than the middle of a 25-acre farm in rural Mexico. The next phase for the expansive property will be on-site treehouse accommodations, available for guest occupancy later this fall. Within the same vicinity is the third and most understated (yet equally delicious) of the organic collective. Huerta Los Tamarindos is a property dating back to the 19th century and is both authentic and picturesque. Owned and run by locals, it’s not quite as opulent as its neighbors, yet dishes up tasty food in a naturally stunning setting. Using 100% organic produce, the restaurant also offers cooking classes and a small marketplace.

Back in old San Jose del Cabo, plenty of options abound –from traditional Mexican at Jasmin to creative Mexican at Mi Casa. Also try Nik San in the Shops at Palmilla for the area’s best sushi and Japanese food.

096 The first day of June sees McCaffrey casually entering the press box at Valor Christian High School in flip-flops and Michigan sweatshirt. He couldn’t have been more laid back if he was resting in hammock. So here am thinking, “Who would play Dylan McCaffrey in a movie?” answer my own question almost immediately. “Dylan McCaffrey would play Dylan McCaffrey in a movie. Hell, wish he’d play me in a movie.” This 6’5” gentleman with movie star good looks and a golden arm reserved with sense of humility, class and manners that are all throwbacks to a time without Facebook, selfies and hashtags. Here he is, entering his senior year of high school and walking tall amongst the distractions, in just the manner that Lisa and Ed McCaffrey have raised each While the athletic portion of his make up can certainly be traced to some very particular family genes, it’s the focus on academics that McCaffrey cites as the real family core. “You never know when athletics will be taken from you. My dad learned that lesson when he important his Stanford education was in getting jobs after that,” McCaffrey explains. “I’ve been taught that, no matter what, athletics are going to come to an end at some point and there’s going to be an entire life after that, so need to go into the world well equipped.” I’ve been taught that, athletics are going there’s going to be that, so I need to go into the world well equipped. seems apropos that getting a hold of Dylan McCaffrey would be tricky proposition. Any opposing defensive interview attempts two fails because he’s been one busy man with spring ball, finals and football camps. Now it’s 3rd down and we’re bringing the house. Hopefully the 5-star Valor Christian signal caller won’t torch us in single coverage, but it’s quite likely that he will…and we don’t care. Since committing to Jim Harbaugh and Michigan, we’ll shoot the gap now before Dylan is behind wall of Wolverines in another year and completely untouchable. With this kind of balance, McCaffrey’s life might look seamless but there’s plenty that people aren’t seeing behindthe-scenes. There are the late nights stressing over school assignments once football practice ends at 7 o’clock every night, the countless hours of film study to improve his game on the field as well “With the stock that he comes from, it’s hard for me to imagine that Dylan isn’t a great guy. Somebody work with was at camp with Dylan and raved about him. remember him and his brothers running around Mile High Stadium when was covering the Broncos with Ed on the team. They were just little boys back then and now they’re big boys. They’ve got great parents and I’m not surprised to see them achieving, not only the athletic success, but being the good guys that they are. The McCaffreys have always been terrific people.” So why Michigan and Coach Harbaugh? “It’s not what he said that got me to commit, it’s what he showed throughout this past year. He didn’t have his own recruits there and he still did great. Don’t get me wrong, there’s talent all over the board, but he still turned things around immediately. to there that comes with being one of the top high school quarterbacks in the country. So is there any time off, even an hour or two where things stop spinning for a moment? When does, you can find Dylan on a hike, reading or listening to music, but he seems to enjoy the schedule and workload that go in to doing his best. “The reason everyone up for success. My family has also done great job of letting go of the reins and stepping back to allow me to figure some things out on my own, but they’re always there when need them.” McCaffrey’s expectations for himself and Ann Arbor are both crystal clear. “I need to improve on my fundamentals,” he says. “I haven’t been playing quarterback that long so all of it needs work as well as checking my protections, but think I’ll get there. As far as my strengths are concerned, like to think that know where to get my receivers so they can succeed and brothers Max, a recent Duke grad, and Christian, the electrifying Heisman Trophy candidate at Stanford, Dylan has already been tutored on the differences between high school and college ball, “I expect constant competition with all of the other quarterbacks at Michigan next year. I’m sensing that I’ll initially feel like goldfish in shark tank. It’s going to be a big change, but my brothers already have me prepared With the family that Dylan hails from, we’d be shocked he wasn’t prepared and doesn’t handle whatever comes his way with class and grace. That seems to be the McCaffrey way. Look how he improved (former quarterback) Jake Rudock’s game by the chance to make the Detroit Lions’ roster. want to be coached by him and by the guy who’s going to turn everything around at Michigan and make everything better.”
