SAN JOSE DEL CABO, MEXICO-The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Co. LLC, based in Chevy Chase, MD, has formed a joint venture with Grupo Questro and Trinity Investments to build a Ritz-Carlton Reserve resort here. The 30-acre site is to include 124 ocean-front villas.
The property is being developed within Grupo’s 2,000-acre, $1.2 billion Peurto los Cabos resort, a plan that includes residential homes, golf courses, retail and a marina. The property is supposed to have four hotels, but only the Ritz-Carlton property has been named. The resort is in the Baja Mexico Sur area.
The hotel will offer one, two- and three-bedroom villas, each with private infinity plunge pools, outdoor terraces with fireplaces, outdoor showers and butler service. The property will be complete by 2014, said Herve Humler, president of Ritz-Carlton, in a statement.
The new class of resorts by the company is being copied in other popular areas, property being now developed in Puerto Rico, as well as properties in the United Arab Emirates, Costa Rica and two in Thailand.
The hotelier owns one other property in Mexico, a Ritz-Carlton in Cancun. The company operates 74 hotels in the Americas, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
