Esperanza Hotel
Mexico
Cocina del Mar restaurant, bar and lounge is perched atop striking cliffs overlooking Esperanza’s two private beaches and will take you on a culinary journey through the Sea of Cortez and Cabo’s verdant farms. Enter a buzzing lantern-lit bar and lounge that invites you to linger over hand-crafted cocktails before sauntering down to dinner above a cascade of oceanfront terraces kissed by white-capped waves. An outdoor exhibition kitchen is alive with energy, a perfect spot to engage with chefs and explore bites of coastal Baja cuisine and regionally inspired cocktails beside a glowing wood fired oven. True to its name, Cocina del Mar prepares wholesome, deeply satisfying dishes that celebrate the sea surrounding you on all sides. It’s a rarefied dining experience that inspires lingering past sunset as you feast on charred octopus, grilled grouper in a raw-ripe tomato sauce, and lobster fettuccine while basking in the rhythm of the waves and the glow of lantern light.
