ESSV TV: Los Cabos Is the Star!

It was only a matter of time before we went showbiz: ESSV is going to have its own cable presentation that will capture the essence of what the Los Cabos luxury lifestyle is all about (and—not coincidentally—that describes the lifestyle that we deliver to our customers daily).

The broadcast is a part of Ultimate Destinations, itself a spin-off of the popular television show “Better Living,” seen on Time Warner Cable, Adelphia, & Cox Cable. Typical viewers enjoy traveling and have the discretionary income to take three or more trips per year.

ESSV's 30-minute segment will be called "Los Cabos: Luxury at Land's End" and will air once a week for 52 weeks on Time Warner Cable, channel 99, in Los Angeles County (Hollywood, Beverly Hills,  Marina del Rey, Santa Monica, etc.) The first showing will be the first Saturday in February. The program may also air in New York on Time Warner channel 35. The show will be presented in the 16:9 aspect ratio that gives it a widescreen, cinematic feel.

The broadcast will put the glories of Los Cabos before the eyes of an interested audience, and we hope renew attention for veterans of travel to all that's happening at Baja's tip, as well as spark interest in those who have only heard rumor of the good times to be had there. See you soon on the home screen...


    
Insider Guide and DVD Put ESSV in the Spotlight

 

ESSV has long employed multiple means to get its message of Los Cabos fun out to the widest audience, and our latest offerings ensure that trend continues. Following on the heels of our new 154-page Vacation Guide, we are putting the final touches on our 2007 Insider Pocket Guide and our 2007 Villa and Resort Vacations DVD.

The Insider Guide will be approximately 60 pages of useful, practical information covering the best of what Los Cabos offers, direct from the recommendations of ESSV staff members, who have years of charting the trends and tastes of the area. The guide will cover activities, beaches, restaurants, nightlife and shopping, as well as supply maps, helpful phone numbers, Spanish phrases and traveler's tips. Our publication date is March 1st.

   


The DVD features some of the prime properties, both villas and resorts, represented by ESSV, all of them spectacular examples of extraordinary vacation getaways. Many of the special services we offer our guests—such as in-villa gourmet meals and luxury spa treaments—are also showcased on the disk. There's also a dynamic overview of the exciting activities Los Cabos is famous for, such as world-class golf and fishing, off-road racing, diving, cruises and many more. The DVD should also be ready by March 1st.

You can request a DVD here after March 1st; new Insider Guides can be downloaded around the same time using this link.

Property Showcase:
Villa la Diosa de la Luna

If a property is named "Goddess of the Moon," it really has to have a lot going on to live up to its billing. Fortunately for us (and for you, of course), Villa la Diosa de la Luna is everything its name implies. Diosa is one of ESSV's new luxury offerings, and every bit of its 8,000 square feet defines opulence.

Each of its five beautiful bedrooms has a granite-countered private bath, complemented by its beautiful, granite-countered kitchen. But not all the goods are inside: outside there's a spectacular infinity pool and a six-person jacuzzi. Dining facilities, indoors and out, are first-class as well.

 

Don't forget that all of this loveliness is matched by the splendor of the villa's views: the Sea of Cortez, in all its big-blue glory, can be admired from each of the private balconies that adjoin each bedroom, and both the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez from many stunning vantage points throughout the property.

The attractions of Villa la Diosa de la Luna exemplify what we try to achieve for each of our Earth, Sea and Sky properties: homes that showcase what Los Cabos is all about, and that invite our guests to a delightful, relaxing respite in an unforgettable vacation hideaway.

 


Guest Testimonials

"I've been meaning to write you and tell you that our Cabo vacation was AWESOME! The house, as we already knew, was AMAZING!! The guy we checked in with was so friendly and very quick. Stephanie, the housekeeper, was beyond friendly. Denni's Catering was so good, and the staff was so friendly. They were always on time, and everything was EXACTLY as we expected. And the massages may have been the highlight of our trip. We had 9 30-minute massages, and they actually sent 5 masseuses out to the house, and they were by far better than any massage I've had in San Francisco. I'm already looking forward to planning our next trip there.." 
—Courtney, San Francisco, CA

 

"Happy New Year! I hope that you are well. I want to tell you that my family and I had a great time in Cabo.

Please keep us on your mailing list."

Cabo Mind Body Fitness Puts Them Both in Tune
One of our newer offerings in the extensive list of ESSV services in Los Cabos is Cabo Mind Body Fitness, a great way to stay fit, feel more energized and sharpen your focus. Mind Body Fitness offers a range of Pilates and Bikram-method yoga classes onsite at your resort or villa—you can tailor your fitness practices to your time and needs.

The courses go from basic to intensive, and can be customized to suit your fitness levels and interests. And after a night of Cabo partying, this might be just the ticket to get your bounce (and your balance) back.

     
     


     
     


Humming Along Behind the Wheel
Your Los Cabos rental car experience certainly doesn't have to be ordinary—why not have a Hummer delivered to your villa or resort digs? ESSV can arrange the rental of all manner of worthy vehicles, from fire-breathing Hummers to quiet compacts.

And any of them can be delivered to your door, so you can jump in and jaunt out to a beautiful Baja excursion moments after your arrival. Call us at (800) 745-2226 for car selections and more info.

Arts AND Sushi? This Twain Definitely Meets—and Rocks!
Pairing Latin American art with high-end sushi might not seem to be a natural coupling, but take it from us, it's a treat on every level.

Arts and Sushi surrounds you with fine art and fresh fish, and all are quality. Select sushi, sashimi and other Japanese dishes are prepared with sophisticated flair by Israel, sushi chef par excellence. The great food is enhanced by the restaurant's stylish, lustrous setting, all the more alluring due to the modern works of art that surround the contented diners. This is really a combo dish!

Located at Plaza Bonita on Lazaro Cárdenas in Cabo San Lucas
Open daily 11am–11pm

DG Lounge Is Darn Good
There's a new club in Cabo that knows its way around a classic (and a contemporary) martini. DG opened with a bang on New Year's Eve, and has been soothing the souls—and throats— of needy revelers ever since.

DG's advertising also promises "intellectual nightlife, with eclectic and live music." It's not often that "intellectual" and "nightlife" are in the same sentence—let's wish them well on that end. Besides the intellectual offerings, they also serve tapas.

The DG is located at Misiones del Cabo, at Km. 5.5 on the Transp. Highway. Give 'em a call at 145-8160 and tell them to chill the shaker.
