Waldorf Astoria makes Mexican debut

The Resort at Pedregal in Los Cabos, Mexico, has been transformed into Waldorf Astoria’s first Mexican outpost on a 24-acre site at the southernmost tip of the Baja California Peninsula.

Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal is accessible only by a private tunnel, and features 119 guest rooms and suites, along with a new 12,000sq ft Waldorf Astoria Spa.

This year, the spa is diving deeper into the healing elements with the launch of standalone 50 or 80 minute moon phase treatments — The Awakening Moon, The Nourishing Moon, The Calming Moon and The Resorting Moon — featuring natural ingredients and techniques designed to enhance the energy and healing influence each phase has on the body.

The Waldorf Astoria Spa also offers The Intention, a new Mexican folk healing treatment developed with local “sanadores” and shamans, which is composed of an energy cleansing ritual, craniosacral therapy and a Mexican folk massage; and new mindfulness and advance skin care treatments with tridimensional experiences: The Cure (detoxifying), Inhibit Face Lift (reforming), and 3D Collagen Shock (redefining).

“The Waldorf Astoria brand has been setting the standard for luxury and personalized service across the globe for more than 100 years,” said Dino Michael, global head, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts. “The conversion of Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal reflects this commitment to expand our luxury portfolio and bring our True Waldorf Service to the world’s most sought-after and inspiring destinations.”

Additional programming provided by Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal includes curated exploration in the form of ‘Beyond the Beach’ adventures, including a culinary and art excursion with Savoring Todos Santos and Give-Back Tourism at La Candelaria, where volunteer groups visit La Candelaria, aiding in the upkeep of the Agustin Melgar Primary School, followed by lunch with the school children.
