Review of Rancho Leonero Resort

What a great looking place! We stopped in to check...

What a great looking place! We stopped in to check it out and didn't see a single guest or customer service person. But, we did see lots of workers making improvements to the already impeccable property. In one case it was just repainting the office but in the other case a structure with stone pillars was being built. An outdoor bar or grill area?

I couldn't give it 5 stars because we didn't see inside any of the rooms and didn't experience any of their offerings. I dont doubt that they deserve it, though.

The views from the dining room were incredible. The same was true of the swimming pool. Most buildings were built out of stone with matching stonework on the paths that wound through the property. It almost looked like the resort had its roots in the Works Projects Administration of the 1940s in the US.

The whole resort is perched on the Sea of Cortez. There is a large, sandy beach area that ends at a rocky point below the swimming pool area.
