Cabo Nightlife and Best Bars

Which are the best bars in Cabo? Which are the famous ones? which are the new ones? which are mild and which are wild? I will let you know everything about it. Most of the bars and night life in Cabo is located in Cabo San Lucas down town. So if you are staying in a hotel in San Jose or The Corridor, I suggest to either rent a car, hire a transportation service or use the Bar Hoppers. If you want to feel free to drink and party, then use the Bar Hoppers or transportation service. The advantage of private transportation services vs. taking a taxi is that you have a private driver that is there for you all the time which is completely reliable, biligual, and the vehicles have all the insurances. Cabs are very expensive in Cabo so the price would be almost the same. So having solving the transportation issue...where to start?


The most famous...
Inmediately come to my mind 3 of them, a tradition in Cabo that you can't miss!

CABO WABO.
One of the owners is Sammy Hagar guitarrist and vocals of Van Halen band, which helped the place to become very popular, featured in MTV, VH1, E channel and other TV channels.

It is not uncommon that people meet Sammy there when he is in Cabo, and may see him in one of his spontaneous performances!

Cabo Wabo has even it's own Tequila Brand that has become very popular as well, it has been awarded in many contests and it is exported internationally. Don't miss the Waboritas.

Antros y Bares en Los Cabos

¿Cuales son los mejores Antros en Cabo?, ¿Cuales son los famosos?, ¿Cuales son los nuevos?, ¿Cuales son tranquilos y cuales son reventados? ¿Cuales los de precios más accesibles y cuales los locales?
Aquí te contaré todo lo que hay que saber al respecto.
La mayor parte de los Antros en Cabo están en Cabo San Lucas, por lo que si estás hospedado en un hotel de San José o del Corredor, te sugiero rentes un carro, contrates transportación privada o uses los Bar Hoppers. Pero si quieres sentirte con la libertad de tomar y enfiestarte, te recomiendo uses la transportación privada o los Bar Hoppers.
La ventaja de la transportación privada sobre los taxis es que tienes el chofer a tu disposición en cualquier momento, que ademas son totalmente confiables, bilingües y cuentan con todas las unidades aseguradas. dado que los taxis son muy caros en Los Cabos, el precio es prácticamente el mismo.
Habiendo resuelto el tema de la transportación...¿por donde empezamos?

Los más famosos...
Definitivamente surgen a mi mente tres de ellos, son ya una tradición en Cabo que no te puedes perder.

CABO WABO.

No es raro que cuando Sammy está en Los Cabos lo encuentres en Cabo Wabo e incluso se eche un palomazo!

Uno de los eventos más famosos del lugar es el cumpleaños de Sammy el 13 de octubre, que lo celebra siempre en Cabo con varios conciertos en el lugar. Cabo Wabo incluso tiene su propio tequila que se ha hecho igual de famoso, ha ganado premios y es exportado internacionalmente, no dejes de probar las Waboritas.

The famous Hotel California: Mith or Truth?

Tour to Todos Santos Pueblo Magico Hundreds of tourists come every day to Todos Santos "Magical Town", to fine art galleries and of course to visit the famous Hotel California. Many come looking for the legend of the Eagles and the connection with the song. What they find here is probably the inspiration for the song, but most important is that they find here a really magical town and the real Mexico.

Todos Santos is an oasis in the desert, crossing the Tropic of Cancer, distinguished in all "Baja" for its mild climate and fertile land where they proliferate palm trees and crops of mango, papaya, avocado and recently many organic farms.

It was founded by the Jesuits in 1724, before it was occupied by the Pericúes and Guaycuras Indians, however epidemics such as gallic, smallpox and measles, brought by the galleons coming from Asia, finished with more than three-quarters of the indigenous population the rest migrated to Santiago.

In 1842 there was a redistribution of land and was when Todos Santos lived the most important economic period whith eight sugar mills, and other industries such as flowers.

Colonial buildings were built, and two theaters. Todos Santos became a place of artists and has been since then a cradle of painters, sculptors, craftsmen, poets and intellectuals. In late 1990, the site was chosen by painters and writers of American origin as a resting place, and many of them have established their residence there. Currently it has a variety of art galleries and sculpture, as well as numerous craft shops. In 2006, the town received the recognition of magical town by the Mexican Ministry of Tourism.

It has numerous cultural activities like Music Festival in January, The Art Festival (concerts, dance and exhibitions) in February, Todos Santos Film Festival, The Wine Festival in May. Mango Festival in August and its festivities on 12 October.

The Famous Hotel California: The construction of the Hotel California started in 1947 by Mr. Wong, but it was not until February 5, 1950 that opened. Mr. Wong had Asian nationality but always wanted people to see him as Mexican, so he decided to change his name to Antonio Tabasco, better known as "El Chino Tabasco". He lived with his wife and seven daughters in the small hotel with 16 rooms; He had a grosery store called "La Popular" and also a bar and restaurant. The Chinese was a visionary ahead of his time; It was the first to bring ice from the city of La Paz and sell the only cold beer in the town; It was also the first to have a gas station in Todos Santos. When he died, his family decided to sell the hotel to a villager who will quickly change the name. But the change did not last long because a little after the hotel was sold to an American who will immediately return the name of Hotel California.

In the late 90's the "Hotel California" was closed and put on sale. It was empty for about 4 years until finally a Canadian couple, John and Debbie Stewart, bought it in 2001. When they acquired it, was pretty run down and had to remodel it. For its reopening in 2002, the hotel had 11 rooms, a restaurant and bar. The area where was originally a gas station became the now famous Emporio store. In the ten years since the Hotel reopened, it has been reborn as a beautiful boutique hotel. The restaurant "La Coronela" was created by renowned Canadian chef Dany Lamote, and is well known for its Mexican / Mediterranean cuisine. The Hotel has its own brand of tequila "Tequila Hotel California," which has already been exported to the United States, Canada and Europe.

And most recently, the "Santo Vino" (Holy Wine) Restaurant, an eclectic bistro and wine bar. And as an addition to the hotel's history, "La Popular" reopens as a gourmet shop and bakery.

Truth or Myth? During the 1960s and 1970s, the precise details of the history of the hotel are a bit "dim" which is not uncommon in the culture of that particular era ... There are numerous stories. Whether fact or myth, nobody knows for sure. However, a rumor, made in the 1990s by someone unrelated to any of hotel owners, states that the Eagles were once owners of it, a fact that is clearly false. Many of the other legends are less ambiguous and continue to fascinate the public. Although the current owners of the hotel have no relationship with the Eagles, nor promote any association, many visitors are captivated by the "coincidences" between the letter of the song and the physical appearance of the hotel and its surroundings.

¿Coincidences? Hotel California is reached by driving through a long desert road either from Los Cabos to the south or from La Paz to the east. The Mission of the Church of Pilar is located right next to the hotel and mission bells are heard daily. Since the Church is so close they sound as if they were almost inside the hotel sometimes. There are countless stories and firsthand witnesses related to spirits and ghosts in the hotel courtyard. During the "Age Hippie" of the 1960s and 1970s, it was common for people to grow their own marijuana in their gardens, since ​​Todos Santos is an extremely fertile ground, then they rolled up in "Colitas" which is a Mexican slang term for marijuana cigarette. And the simple fact that the California Hotel in Todos Santos was built in 1947, which was of course long before "Hippie" and "Classic Rock" years.
