Press Release: Danzante Resort
September 29, 2000
LORETO, Baja, Mexico -- Entering the 10-acre seaside property, you're greeted by a small adobe and thatch ``casita''
reminiscent of an old Mexican style ranch. Birds colorful as flower blossoms perch on branches of mesquite trees,
cardon cacti and other desert vegetation. Ahead you'll see nine hilltop suites commanding a truly unbelievable
360-degree view of the Sea of Cortez. Mexican artisans handcrafted each adobe brick. French doors lead to a quarried
slate terrace, a burst of sea breezes and arresting views of the sea. A short walk down the hill, rock outcroppings
cradle a small freshwater pool overlooking the ocean. Stone terraces surround the palm-thatched dining room serving
fresh tasty meals.
Danzante's private beach offers complimentary horseback riding, kayaking, snorkeling and hiking. Visit nearby islands
and pinnacles where you might not see another person all day. Excursions to local historical Missions or the whale
lagoons on the Pacific Coast offer unforgettable memories. Enjoy golf at Loreto's Nopolo 18-hole golf course or
tennis at the John McEnroe Tennis Center.
If you haven't been introduced to Baja's Sea of Cortez, it's regarded as one of the most magical places in the
world and a Mecca for scuba divers. Blue whales, the earth's largest mammals, are regulars in the warm waters,
as are mantas and schools of dolphins. The air is wonderfully clear and the night sky offers an explosion of stars.
Escape from TV, telephones and cellular phones to this solar powered ``Eco'' resort. This departure destination
renews the senses which may have been neglected.
Attentive hosts and owners, Mike and Lauren Farley are well-known adventure guides, journalists and photographers
who've been discovering the ``Best of Baja'' for 25 years. Their work appears in many film documentaries, books
and magazines.
Groups or special interest gatherings will find Danzante wonderful. Family celebrations, corporate retreats and
focus groups can individualize this spacious property for their needs. The private setting limits intrusion and
offers a small conference center.
Getting there. A 2 hour flight from Los Angeles into Loreto International Airport takes you swiftly from a metropolis
to Loreto's historic village. Only 25 minutes south of Loreto airport or 3 hours north of La Paz.
