Todos Santos restaurants The name Todos Santos means "total or all saints" & refers to this agricultural village that is turning into a hip little scene for artists, American & Mexican alike.

Coffee Shops, Fine Dining & Galleries are sprouting up.

This rural town lies about an hour north of Cabo San Lucas on the Pacific Ocean, Todos Santos Coffeedown in the far reaches of the peninsula of BajaCalifornia, Mexico.

Organic farming is big industry here, as well as retired Americans on beach front property. The place still keeps it's small village feel despite the recent developments.

Todos Santos HotelsMexican blankets, terra cotta pottery & unique silver jewelry, as well as paintings by local artists, are just some of the treasures you can find here along the main streets.

The restaurants here are above average for Baja, so make sure you grab atleast one real meal - sit down to an evening of candlelight, fine wines & fresh food.

    Hotel California MexicoAnother hotel that claims to be THE "Hotel California". Who knows if this is really the one that the Eagles were singing about or will it be a mystery forever.

    The roudy local bar next door will undoubtably have these old tunes on their juke box.

    description:
    This town is what Cabo San Lucas used to be about 30-40 years ago, before all the tourist crap moved in. Beautiful beaches & coves on the Pacific Ocean. Lots of vegetation & good soil.
