ABOUT LOS CABOS

Some of Cabo Social’s team answer reader’s most frequently asked questions about Los Cabos and Baja Sur, Mexico. What is the difference between Cabo, Los Cabos, San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas? Answer by Juan Bernardo Mejía (Graphic Designer): In English, Los Cabos means “The Capes”, and refers to the combined townships of Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, the Tourist Corridor and the East Cape. San Jose del Cabo is north of San Lucas, and is home to the area’s international

airport (SJD). Cabo San Lucas is at the very tip of the Baja Sur

Waterford, CT

“Cabo is definitely a place you must visit. The nightlife alone is worth it, with all the sexy people, warm temperatures, and music you have to dance to. I felt like I was in Miami Beach again, only it was Cabo... and Cabo Social directed me to the best of the best while I was there. Thanks!”

LOVE CABO

LEANN & EDDIE IN LOVE IN CABO This January, LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian celebrated their new engagement with a romantic stay at Hacienda Beach Club and Residences in Cabo San Lucas. Their trip included dining at DOC Wine Bar, The Market, Edith’s, Flavor and of course Hacienda’s signature Cocina y Cantina restaurant. Plus, LeAnn and Eddie brought in 2011 at Cabo Social Magazine’s very own 4th Annual New Year’s Eve Gala held at Pink Kitty Nightclub. Before going home, Eddie and LeAnn expressed their love for one another and for Cabo, by taking a moment to get close and personal with Cabo Social Magazine. Photography by Marcel Kaiser www.glezphotography.com at Hacienda Beach Club & Residences www.haciendacabosanlucas.com

What time do you start your day each morning? LeAnn: I’m a morning person. I usually wake up between 5:30 and 6:00 am. Eddie: LeAnn has turned me into a morning person, 6:00 to 6:30 am is coffee time. What is your idea of perfect happiness?

LeAnn: I’m living it! It’s not always perfect,

but it’s pretty close. I love my life and the wonderful people in it. All of that and some Don Julio 1942 tequila on the beach with Eddie watching the sunset. Eddie: Having the people I care most about tell me “I love you”. What is your greatest fear? LeAnn: Fear itself. Eddie: Failure. Which living person do you most admire? LA: My godmother who is the strongest woman I know. She’s 82 and still loving life. She taught me how to be a fighter, a survivor and how to enjoy all the wonderful things life has to offer. E: My children. They have taught me so many things about life. What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? LA: I worry too much. What trait do you most deplore in others? LA: Self-righteousness. E: A sense of entitlement. What is your greatest extravagance? LA: Shoes and handbags. I’m running out of room in my closet.

On what occasion do you lie? LA: Did that once and I’ll never do it again, lesson learned. The truth, even if beyond painful is always better. E: When I put money under the pillow and tell my son the Tooth Fairy did it. What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? LA: Life without love. E: Not having anyone to love and love you back. What do you want to be remembered for? LA: My talent, my heart and for holding together a great family and marriage. Defying all odds in a lot of ways. E: My heart. What do you most dislike about your appearance? LA: Nothing yet, nothing’s saggy or wrinkly at 28. I’m enjoying my youth and appreciating it while I can. What is your favorite holiday? LA: Christmas. E: Columbus Day- although President’s Day is a close second.

Earrings by Diamonds International

What is your current state of mind?

LA: Happy, frantic, kind... lots of things.

What is your favorite journey? LA: I toured Europe and loved the people and their love for music. I went from England, Germany, Ireland and Scotland and fell in love. E: The one I’m embarking on with LeAnn. Which living person do you most despise? LA: I try not to care that much about other people’s lives to despise someone. What is your greatest regret? LA: I don’t like that word. I don’t live with regret. I’m sorry for some things I’ve done in my past, but I can’t change them. I can only be a better person in the future. Regretting would keep me in the past, so I forgive myself, make peace and move forward. What or who is the greatest love of your life? LA: I’ve been fortunate to experience different kinds of love, there are many. Eddie is my greatest love. The commitment we have made to each other, to making things work no matter what obstacle that’s put in our way, that’s special. We’re a great team and we’re kind and loving to one another. I really respect and love the man and father that he is. E: I am with the greatest love I’ve known, LeAnn. Which words or phrases do you most overuse? LA: I say “I’m sorry” a lot, even when it’s not my fault. When I’ve made a point and I’m right, I say “Thank you” with a pointed finger like it’s some kind of wand or something.

LOS CABOS:

The most resilient market in North America By Chris Snell

I have said it for the last two years, and I will say it again: “Los Cabos will prove to be the most resilient market in North America.” And our sales are proving this true. Snell Real Estate has had an increase in sales year over year of more than 110%, up from $40 million last year to over $110 million this year and expect to close the year around $130 million. Although we are still a long way from our best year of $280 million, we are certainly headed in the right direction. The Los Cabos market is unique in North America and although it has been impacted by the current economy, the fact that we have limited inventory of quality high-end vacation homes in prime communities in an area that is within 3-hours flight time of 50 million people, we are not subject to the same housing issues related to large U.S. cities with thousands of homes for sale. The best homes in the best communities continue to be in demand and buyers are paying $1,000 to $1,100 per square foot. The only other comparable price point in the U.S. market is Aspen, CO, which actually attracts the same buyer demographic.

One of the most interesting aspects of this season is we are seeing buyers purchasing for “Wealth Preservation and Protection” rather than for “Investment”. Don’t get me wrong, they still want to buy it right, however, buying quality real estate in a prime area with limited inventory is a great way to hedge against a falling dollar. We hear a great deal about security concerns, however, our clients are well educated with regard to Mexico and understand the issues are related to Juarez, Tijuana and the border towns. Los Cabos has one highway in, one highway out, three sides of water and 800 miles of desert. If you were setting up an illegal industry, Los Cabos would not be geographically desirable or a large enough market to justify the effort. Los Cabos has proven time and time again that it is here to stay and this time around will prove no different. With its unique geography, its natural micro-climate averaging 78 degrees year-round and the fact that it is within 3-hours flight time of 50 million people, in these economic times there’s no better place in the world to be than Los Cabos. It’s true, we are “the most resilient market in North America.”

BEST VILLA

Casa Fryzer: Redefining Classic Luxury Living – Set 300 feet above sea level,

high above all other residences in Palmilla, with perhaps the area’s most breathtaking vistas and situated within the ultra-exclusive Villas Del Mar community, Casa Fryzer redefines luxury living as Cabo’s top luxury villa rental. Upon meeting Joe Fryzer, the creator of this captivating home, it is quickly obvious that Joe’s fervor played a very important role in the final and flawless product of Casa Fryzer. Homes like Casa Fyzer are not just pulled from thin air. It was Joe’s passion and intuitive vision for what he wanted to create that makes Casa Fryzer luster. Joe Fryzer, a self-made entrepreneurial and real estate mogul, had a dream before embarking on the construction of Casa Fryzer. Enamored with the luxury living and social scene of St Barts, Fryzer yearned for a similar destination, but in a closer and more convenient location, closer to his hometown of Los Angeles. Cabo and Villas Del Mar in Palmilla was a clear fit for Joe’s vision. Ground was broke in August 2006 as Joe set out to build what he now calls, “A home beyond my wildest expectations.” Designed and build to be the personal home of Joe Fryzer, it is no wonder affluent guests jump at a chance to rent it for a week or month. A recent Casa Fryzer guest said it best, “Staying

RESORT 2011 | CABO-SOCIAL.COM

at a home designed to be a private residence is always more comfortable than one designed to be a rental property.” On the rental market for only 18 months, it is impressive to note that Casa Fryzer has already played host to a substantial list of celebrities and business tycoons. Reuters.com rated Casa Fryzer #4 in its July 2010 article, “Top 10 rental homes in North America”. And with its latest title “Best Villa Rental” in Cabo Social Magazine’s “Best of Cabo 2010 Awards”, the allure of Casa Fryzer is extraordinary. The 17,000+ square foot Casa Fryzer property features an in-house chef and bartender, a wine cellar, gym, home theater with surround sound and recliners, 6 bedrooms, an SUV with chauffeur, a luxury golf cart, access to Palmilla’s Club 96 beach club and golf course, plus many additional amenities. Casa Fryzer showcases impeccable attention to detail not only in its exterior design, but with its modern chic interior décor as well. But it is Casa Fryzer’s enormous infinity pool, its breathtaking ocean views and stunning outdoor dining and social areas that really set this home off. At only $10,000 a night, availability is extremely limited. Thus, advanced reservations are recommended. Casa Fryzer is also available for special events.

A MODEL’S PERSPECTIVE

MY PERFECT VALENTINE’S BY CRISSTY SANTANA

2 KRISSY PERKINS My dream Valentine’s Day is waking up in my gorgeous man’s arms, smothering each other with kisses, drinking coffee by the pool, watching for whales, and receiving my traditional bouquet of Napa Cabernet wine (instead of roses). Then in the evening enjoying a fabulous dinner at home prepared by our favorite Chef Cosme. Of course, we would top the night off by seeing our Cabo family at Baja Junkie.

1 CHARLOTTE SAULT My ideal Valentine’s date would be a night under the stars at Cabo Pulmo. This perfect evening would consist of three key ingredients: First, a secluded beach with a dash of seduction. Second, a full serving of wine with a pinch of playfulness. And third, a spoonful of kisses for dessert!

3 Paco Moreno My perfect Valentine’s Day would be my girlfriend and I in an intimate boat, nothing too fancy. Then watching the sunset, listening to chill-out music and sipping on a good red wine. After that, a romantic, candle-lit dinner, no lights... and the rest I’ll leave to your imagination.

RESORT 2011 | CABO-SOCIAL.COM

4 MARK BUEHLER It will all start with breakfast at Señor Sweets. Then a hotel room at Casa Dorada with a surprise set-up in the room, lunch at Baja Brewing, a walk on the beach, followed by champagne back in the room. Then end the night with dinner at El Farallon and chocolate martinis at Baja Junkie. Also, lingerie and roses are a must.

5 ELEANOR IVES My ideal Valentine’s Day is simple. I like flowers, David Yurman jewelry, a bottle of Aces of Spades Rose on ice at Pink Kitty, and someone to share it with.

6 ISABEL ALVARADO Vivo en uno de los mejores lugares que es Cabo San Lucas. Mi mejor día de San Valentín sería con mi novio, en una romántica cena, con velas en Sushimaniaz. Después un buen recorrido por el centro en busca de un riquísimo postre de chocolate. Como plan final sería disfrutar con mis amigos de la gran vida nocturna en los mejores antros.

7 Jose VEGA My Valentine’s Day is just my girlfriend and I spending the day doing stuff that we love to do. We will go to the beach, have a couple of drinks at Baja Cantina and enjoy a beautiful sunset dinner cruise, followed by a big night out in Cabo San Lucas.

9 BRANDON BUTNER 8 Crissty Santana Hauttertv.com Valentine’s Day is always so exciting, my perfect one would be waking up to play and enjoy quality time, followed by fun and cool actvities that we both enjoy. Wild Canyon or to the beach. Half way through the day, relax at a gorgeous hotel room with candles, champagne and lots of playfullness. Dinner at Ventanas with delicious dessert, drinks, then back to our room, just the two of us. /crisstysantanahauttertv

/crisstysantana

Mine would be surprise breakfast in bed to start off the day. After some quality “play time”, it will be off for a full day of fun, intimate activities. The night would include flowers, presents, chocolates, romantic dinner, candles, massages, wine, bubble bath and nakedness –not in any specific order. Models by Berber

WINE CORNER

BY SOMMELIER FCO. FABIAN MARTINEZ Around these days we’ll be enjoying two of Cabo’s most anticipated holidays of the year: Valentine’s Day and Spring Break. This will give us the perfect opportunity to enjoy both the romantic and the wild sides of our amazing town. Being a romantic wine lover, I’ll start sharing some ideas on how to compliment Valentine’s Day with a great selection of wines to make it perfect. romantic dinner

If it turns out you are the one with the wine on your to-do list, the most important tip to remember is to pair the dinner with a medium body wine. It will work fine with a beef stew, a chicken casserole or even fish, provided it’s not cooked with a citric sauce. It will also drive you nicely into dessert. Your choices in this case are: mellow and mild Merlot, a medium body Zinfandel and of course a medium body Malbec which is more fruit driven. what to buy

Navarro Correas Malbec Gran Reserva, Mendoza ARG 2007 (Vinoteca Wine Shop), Perry Creek Zinfandel. El Dorado County USA 2006 (Sea Coast Wines), Los Cabos Winery Reserve Merlot California USA 2007 (Los Cabos Winery). avoid

Wines with a lot of tannins or high in acidity.

mediterranean style lunch at the beach

For this, I would recommend something refreshing and light to enjoy the ocean’s breeze and sunshine, a prime example would be Albariño, a lesser known white grape from the “Rias Baixas” region in the northwest of Spain. It is refreshing, aromatic and has the perfect acidity to be accompanied with some oysters, clams or the amazing array of ceviches you can find in Cabo. what to buy

Pazo de Barrantes Albariño, 2008 (Baja Wines) or Lagar de Cervera Albariño 2008 (La Europea) both from Rias Baixas SPAIN, Donnafugata Athelio Inzolia-Catarrato 2009 Sicily (Viparmex), or Perry Creek Viogner, El Dorado County USA 2008 (Sea Coast Wines).

RESORT 2011 | CABO-SOCIAL.COM

avoid

White wines with too much oak presence as their natural heaviness will tire your palate. Also, you want to steer away from sweet white wines like Riesling or Gewurztraminer, unless you are having spicy or pungent ingredients.

a poolside friend gathering

Normally in this kind of friendly meeting, there’s a grill or barbecue going on, so we can have a slightly oaky Chardonnay or light reds like Pinot Noir, Grenache, Tempranillo or the well known Lambrusco which is sweet and goes well with desserts like fruit cake or a good red fruit gelato, especially when served slightly chilled. what to buy

Gloria Ferrer Pinot Noir, Sonoma USA 2008 (Baja Wines), Château du Beaucastel 2005 or Caudalet de Beaucastel 2007 FRANCE (La Europea), or Marqués de Murrieta Ygay Gran Reserva 2004 (Vinoteca Wine Shop), Lambrusco Rienite. avoid

Powerful tannins wines unless you are grilling New York steaks or Rib eyes; or sweet wines, unless your grilling or barbecue is based on sweet and sour sauces.

a relaxing bubble bath in a jacuzzi

Close your eyes and think about everything that will make this moment perfect, either a glass of light red wine like a mellow fruit driven Pinot Noir or a glass of bubbles to match your bath, like a glass of sparkling Pinot Noir 100% Blanc de Noir or a Taittinger Brut Non-Vintage or a Perrier Jouët Belle Époque 1996 or 1999.

what to buy

Either Viña María Sileni Pinot Noir 2008 from Marlborough in New Zealand (ECM Vinos or Baja Wines) or Sparkling Wine Blanc de Noirs: Pacual Tosso 100 % Pinot Noir (La Europea) and for champagne, Taittinger Brut NonVintage (La Europea) and Perrier Jouët Belle Époque (Vinoteca). avoid
