as well. It draws heavily on the lush Valle de Guadalupe region near Ensenada in northern Baja, famous for producing robust varietals on par with anything found in Napa or Sonoma or Bordeaux. Global offerings include California's top vintage cult wines and distinctive wines from France, Italy and Spain to newly discovered selections from Australia, New Zealand and South America. Then came the boom. The resort lit up the night with a firework display that we’ll never forget. It’s one gift after another here in paradise. Perhaps the most cherished sequence of words we can ever hear when vacationing is “adult pool.” Of course, Las Ventanas has one. As it stands, this impeccable swimming hole might be the most perfect plot of land on the Sea of Cortez’s western coast. An infinity pool reigns over private sands that ooze into the surf, with the occasional horseback rider passing through with an accompanying ocean soundtrack. With hours spent at the pool, the adjacent friendly Sea Grill located at the sand’s edge couldn’t be more perfect for lunch, snacks and a premium stocked bar for an ideal afternoon of fun in the sun and zero complaints. Its reputation as one of the world’s premier destinations is beyond deserved. Paradise is far from lost with this jaw-dropping respite, but what would you expect from this heavenly wonderland whose translation in English means Windows to Paradise? And with the weather the way it is down here, it’s best to just leave the windows open for all the more paradise.
