The East Cape’s Finest Resort On the Edge of the Placid Sea
Legend has it, the conquistadors buried barrels of gold and gems in the mountains overlooking “Bahia de las Palmas”. This is how the sleepy Mexican fishing village of Los Barriles (“The Barrels”) originally received its name.
Today, Hotel Palmas de Cortez is the gem of Baja’s East Cape, spanning the beachfront adjacent to the town of Los Barriles. Situated literally just a few steps from the Sea of Cortez, this first-class resort offers full amenities for anglers and families alike. The magnificent Infinity pool and resort-style swim-up bar overlook the East Cape’s largest sportfishing fleet. The hotel wholly operates our boat fleet and all charters can be pre-arranged as part of your vacation package. The jacuzzi pool is a favorite spot to relax, and the cantinas features a full selection of fine wines and liquors, plus ice cold local beers. Two restaurants on resort grounds, Tio Tico’s and The Bayview, offer a wide selection of international cuisine, Mexican dishes, and fresh-caught seafood. Our chefs can even prepare your day’s catch prepared in your choice of recipes or new delicacies perhaps you’ve never tried!
The 9-hole “chip-n-putt” golf course, tennis courts, the Palmas Pickleball courts, game room with pool table, and conference center/meeting facility also are available on the hotel grounds. Experience the air-conditioned Big Game Bar, a Umi Sushi Bar, or simply relax on one of several beachside verandas.
For world-class sportfishing and a resort experience in a lush tropical setting offering all the creature comforts, Hotel Palmas de Cortez is the first choice. Our fishing/resort packages are surprisingly affordable and can be 100% customized to meet your exact needs and group size–from 2 to 200 people. For fishing charters, our fleet’s craft can accommodate between one and seven anglers. Choose from Super Pangas, Deluxe Cruisers, or Super Deluxe, twin-engine Cruisers depending on your budget and the type of fishing experience you want to enjoy.
