Another legend about this hotel says that the ghost of a pretty girl appears to customers, inviting them to a drink.

Just a few miles from Todos Santos you’ll find Los Cerritos beach, next to the El Pescadero community. A stunning beach if you are a surfer or surf lover. Perfect to spend a day swimming, always taking into account the flags showing the intensity of the tide and waves.
