Los Cabos - Cabo and Puerto Los Cabos Hyatts Reviewed

HOTEL & RESORT | HYATT ZILARA AND HYATT ZIVA | KRISTINA RUNDQUIST | 

It would be accurate to say that Los Cabos is like two great destinations in one.

That’s because this area, located at the tip of Baja California Sur in Mexico, is actually comprised of two distinct regions, each with their own very unique personality.

It includes Cabo San Lucas, a high-energy locale with lots of activity and entertainment. But the other half of this dual-personality destination is San Jose del Cabo, which exemplifies the picture-perfect old authentic Mexican town with all the quaint touches like cobblestone streets and traditional cuisine.

A 2,000-acre master-planned resort community on Los Cabos’ East Cape, Puerto Los Cabos continues to retain its low-key demeanor while evolving into a destination for non-conformists. With a focus on celebrating nature and culture, this gateway along three miles of white sand beach balances progress while maintaining a sense of tradition and community.

At its centerpiece is the 200-slip (400 slips upon completion) Puerto Los Cabos Marina, where life plays out via fishing charters and market with stalls showcasing daily catches hauled in by local fishermen. The vibe provides a refreshing twist from the buzz and chatter typically associated with Cabos San Lucas.

NBC News Dental Insurance Report - Is it worth the cost?

MONEYTALKSNEWS October 18, 2016, 5:00 AM

By Marilyn Lewis/MoneyTalksNews

You need medical insurance, if only to protect against the cost of an accident or illness so expensive that you could be ruined financially. But do you really need dental insurance?

It’s an interesting question, because you can avoid the most likely causes and expenses of dental problems, decay and gum disease, by brushing and flossing your teeth diligently. But some teeth are more prone to problems, and when they have a problem, the costs can mount quickly.

The past few months around the Pacific have been a bit slow, to say the very least. Sure, there’s been a few great moments, but when compared to the start of summer and that brilliant winter brought by El Niño, things have been pretty terrible around Southern California and Hawaii. But that all may soon change, as there appears to be some relief on the horizon.

The 30-year-old songstress performed an amazing rendition of her song Born This Way for a little boy called Christian at an orphanage in Mexico on Sunday.

While she’s currently on vacation following a comeback year and work on a new album, Lady Gaga seemingly can’t pull herself away from charitable causes. She performed an emotionally-charged a capella version of her smash song “Born This Way” at a Mexican orphanage over the weekend.

Puerto Vallarta - Elizabeth Taylor, John Huston's Favorite Haunt is a Great Place To Retire

In 1963, Elizabeth Taylor followed Richard Burton to a sleepy little port on Mexico’s west coast where he was starring, along with Deborah Kerr and Ava Gardner, in a John Huston-directed film called Night of the Iguana.

 Puerto Vallarta's Historic District has over a dozen galleries, fine restaurants and nighclubs

For his movie set, John Huston chose Mismaloya, a small village just south of Puerto Vallarta in the Mexican state of Jalisco, for its resemblance to a crumbling coastal village of the 1940s. Elizabeth Taylor took up residence in nearby Puerto Vallarta, which in the 1960s already had a small community of both Mexican and expat artists and writers, drawn by the weather, natural beauty, and relative isolation.

DONALD TRUMP'S FAILED BAJA CONDO PROJECT

Trump's Baja California condo project left buyers feeling betrayed and angry.

By Michael Finnegan

When Stephenee Simms heard in 2006 that Donald Trump was building condo towers in Baja, the lure of a posh weekend getaway on the rustic coast just south of Tijuana was hard to resist.

Simms, then an aerospace purchasing agent living in Canoga Park, said she used her life savings to pay a deposit of just over $50,000 for unit No. 602, a one-bedroom overlooking the Pacific.

The sales team gave her a book, bound in blue suede, describing a resort where residents “relax by the infinity-edge pool, margarita in hand, as the cabana boy brings fresh towels.”

It featured Trump, shown smiling in a French gold-leaf chair, telling readers that no words or pictures “can possibly describe what is about to take shape here, but it is certainly going to be the most spectacular place in all of Mexico.”

In the end, nothing at all was built at Trump Ocean Resort, and Simms lost her money. As did about 250 other buyers, most of them from Southern California.

El Chapo Extradition Appeals - Latest News on Legal Moves by Mexico's Drug Lord

The appeals argue that the statute of limitations has run out on some of the crimes that Mr. Guzmán is accused of committing, his lead lawyer, José Refugio Rodríguez, told The Associated Press. They also argue that some of the accusations are based on hearsay rather than direct evidence, the lawyer said.

TIJUANA EXPLODING WITH CONDOS AND HEALTH CARE PROJECTS - 30 Projects Opening Next Year.

Tijuana is rapidly growing: condos and medical tourism facilities creating a construction boom

Most of the condominium buyers are Mexicans

Construction in Tijuana, Baja California, is seeing a boom that by next year will add 700 new condominiums in at least 30 projects.

The new Alta Baja project, will cost 3.5 billion pesos (US $188 million), and generate about 10,000 direct jobs, said the president of the Tijuana economic development council.

“Tijuana’s got a great potential because it’s growing fast but there’s no place to do so going sideways, so we have to think ‘up.’ We expect that upper middle class buyers will acquire these condominiums, as they represent a niche opportunity,” said Humberto Inzunza.

Besides the condominium buildings proper, Alta Baja will also include a five-star hotel, high-end shopping malls and private hospitals that will cater not only to the domestic market but to foreign tourists too.

This is not a story about how Mexico celebrates its Día de los Muertos ritual, or how Americans come here to retire . . . then forget to die.

The other day I came across the black-and-white details of how and where U.S. citizens meet their maker in foreign lands. You see, the U.S. State Department is required by law to report non-natural deaths by U.S. citizens in foreign countries.

Anyone who’s explored beyond the comforts of Western Europe knows our global village has some tough neighborhoods. In fact, in the two-year period of 2014-2015 exactly 1,723 unfortunate U.S. citizens “bought the farm” beyond U.S. soil.

The BEST TIJUANA DENTISTS by The Board Certified Mexico Dental Association for Dental Implants, Cosmetic Dentistry & More ~

The Board Certified Mexico Dental Association Brings You The Best of The Best Dentists in Tijuana ~

Board Certified Dentists comprise less than 1% of dentists in Mexico and they are the ones you want for your important dental procedures. They cost the same as non-certified dentists in Mexico so you can afford the best!

Tijuana is located in Baja California across the border from San Diego California.  Dentists and doctors in the city of 2.5 million have provided affordable medical and dental services for over 60 years. 

Today with ever rising health care costs, Tijuana has become even more important with many US insurance companies not only covering dentistry in Tijuana but also investing in health care facilities in Tijuana.

Patients should be aware that 85-90% of dentists in Mexico are only general dentists. If you are considering having advanced dentistry in Tijuana, take the advice  of the Mexican and American dental associations and insist on a Board Certified Dentist for your dental implants, crowns, cosmetic dentistry, oral surgeries etc. 

Board Certified Dentists in Tijuana have the additional years of specialist college necessary to ensure your procedures will be successful.

As the drumbeat for a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico has grown louder over the past year thanks to Donald Trump, I’ve shared a lot of the typical reactions against it: Vilifying immigrants is ignorant and cruel. The desire to keep others out is un-American.

But I have another thought that probably doesn’t come up much for anyone who doesn’t live near the border: Please don’t make it harder for me to go to Mexico.
