Baja California

Baja California, officially the Free and Sovereign State of Baja California, is a state in Mexico. It is the northernmost and westernmost of the 31 states which, with the Federal District, comprise the 32 Federal Entities of Mexico. Before becoming a state in 1953, the area was known as the North Territory of Baja California. The mainland portion of the state is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by Sonora, the U.S. State of Arizona, and the Gulf of California (also known as the "Sea of Cortez"), and on the south by Baja California Sur. Its northern limit is the U.S. state of California.

Baja California is the twelfth largest state by area in Mexico. Its geography ranges from beaches to forests and deserts. The backbone of the state is the Sierra de Baja California, where the Picacho del Diablo, the highest point of the peninsula, is located. This mountain range effectively divides the weather patterns in the state. In the northwest, the weather is semi-dry and mediterranean. It is in this area where a few valleys can be found, such as the Valle de Guadalupe, the major wine producing area in Mexico. The state is also home to numerous islands off both of its shores. In fact, the westernmost point in Mexico, the Guadalupe Island, is part of Baja California. The Coronado, Todos Santos and Cedros Islands are also on the Pacific Shore.


Honeymoon at The BodyHoliday LeSPORT

Hi Elizabeth,   Thank you for following up on our honeymoon to The BodyHoliday LeSPORT. We had an amazing vacation, it truly was everything you explained it to be! The resort was beautiful and so well maintained and the staff were amazing! “P” and I couldn't get over how friendly everyone was and that they made a point to get to know you/remember you so when they saw you again they could call you by name, we were impressed to say the least!   Knowing that we had everything taken care of for the entire week, I don't know that I have ever felt more relaxed, . We did venture off the resort one morning to go whale watching, we unfortunately didn't see any whales but we did see a lot of dolphins which was really fun to see them playing with the wake of the boat. Other than whale watching we spent our time on the resort, we filled our day participating in activities/ lounging on the beach. The food was delicious and I think the most comforting part about the resort was not having to worry about consuming the water. Being able to drink the water on the resort made the whole experience much more enjoyable, especially when wanting to fill up your water bottle in our room so we could go straight to a 7am morning session.   Our room flooded the 2nd last afternoon that we were there (an above pipe burst we were told) and there was quiet a bit of water in our bathroom/hallway, but luckily we did not have much on the floor other than shoes. The concierge desk moved us immediately to a different room and provided us with a voucher that night for $200 incidentals charged to our room. We did not have any additional charges for our time spent there so I have inquired if we are able to use this voucher if we were to return in the future.   “P” and I do want to say a HUGE THANK YOU, to you for letting them know we were on our honeymoon, even though we have surpassed their 3 month honeymoon recognition period. Because we were their celebrating our honeymoon we were invited on the sunset cruise with others celebrating a special occasion or returning guests and it was a definite highlight to the week. We got some beautiful photos and the atmosphere on the boat was so full of energy and was just all around a really fun experience!   We do hope to return again in the future because we had such an amazing experience, and we feel spoiled for this is our first resort experience! Thank you again for your assistance with our planning, your expertise certainly helped us choose a honeymoon that was everything we had hoped it to be!   Thank you again! We will certainly be in touch when we are planning our next getaway!!   All the best, V & P
