Phoenix

 

Phoenix is growing and the food scene is not far from behind. I made a list of some of my favorite spots in phoenix.

Found-Re in Downtown Phoenix. Not only is it great design but it holds an amazing art collection at the hotel.

Valley ho, is in the heart of downtown phoenix. If you are looking for mid-century design. this is the place to go.

Sanctuary, One of my favorite places to stay. Enjoy food? they have a rockstar chef.

Four seasons, You cannot go wrong with this. Incredible Views paired with the food of Chef Samanta.

San Miguel de Allende

San Miguel de Allende, is by far one of my favorite cities in the world. Everyone should be visiting.

 l’hotel , A trendy chic boutique hotel on top of one of my favorite restaurants in town. 

Rosewood , that view tho. Thats all.

Hotel Casablanca, Moroccan decor meets old world Mexican architecture, plus Chef Fatima’s restaurant on the roof top. A must visit.

Dos casas, A cool space with a great restaurant. 

Baja 

Baja for me its all about Valle de Guadalupe, the Mexa wine country.

Bruma Casa 8. A Great breakfast, amazing beds large pool with a view and if possible stay at the suites.... trust me, the suites. 

Encuentro Guadalupe, the architecture of this place will get you like a magnet, It’s just beautiful

Arre lulu, A fun and chic airstream with mountain view’s and great terrace. 

Partana, I really like this place. I stayed for one night and I wanted to stay longer. It’s inside Finca Altozano, a coffee plantation. So you know you will have amazing coffee to start your day.

Casa Frida, Aside from the amazing winery and tasting room, You will find a great rooftop and views though the night.

Tulum

Tulum is my favorite beach in the world, I need to open a studio here to have a better excuse to spend time here.

I usually stay at Azulik, I think it’s impossible to match this magical place, stay here if you can. If not, here are some other amazing places to stay

  • CASA MALCA

  • NOMADE

  • PAPAYA PROJECT

  • BE TULUM

  • NEST TULUM

  • HABITAS

Puebla

My love for Puebla started 7 years ago with a 28 days trip I took to learn the art of Talavera. Talavera its a denomination by origen ceramic with a mayólica style . At that time my desire for food was almost all for street food, and at one point I was so secure to say that Puebla had the soul in Mexican cuisine…well pretty close. I know know that the soul of Mexican cuisine is everywhere in Mexico but that’s another conversation… Let’s focus on Puebla.

  • LA PURIFICADORA, this hotel has been my home every time I’m in Puebla. The architecture is by Legorreta , one of my favorite Mexican architects. If you can stay in the suite mayor, trust me , it’s amazing.

  • ROSEWOOD, of course rosewood, On my last trip to Puebla I stayed here for a week and the service, food, and the design is just perfect. I think this place has my favorite bed to sleep in ever. Did I mention the service ???
