Located on Blvd Mijares in San Jose del Cabo on the second floor of the small plaza beside Tropicana is the office of Corcoran The Baja Real Estate Company. If you have ever watched Shark Tank, you will recognize Barbara Corcoran, the real estate mogul based in New York. Blake Harrington, the broker at Corcoran has had a long history working in real estate in both the United States and Canada. His career in real estate started in 2006 in San Diego. He used to travel regularly to Los Cabos with his wife Michelle Monroy, whose father was involved in real estate. During the visits Blake would do some real estate deals. They loved Los Cabos and so 14 years ago, they moved to area and Blake became immersed in the real estate market. He was a founder of REmexico Real Estate Group in 2011. After working as VP of Marketing and Sales for Engle & Volker Snell Real Estate, Harrington decided that it was time to open a real estate agency exclusively focused on the luxury market in Los Cabos. So, just over a year ago, Corcoran The Baja Real Estate Company was born.
With the start of the company, Harrington reached out to some of the top producing real estate agents in the region, who had both great reputations and a history of success in selling luxury properties. Corcoran is uncompromising on its focus on the top of the market in Los Cabos – the company does not list or promote the sale of the vast majority of the market in Los Cabos – condominiums and homes in the lower price ranges in the market.
The result of this focus has been for Corcoran to become the exclusive agency for some the newest high-end developments in Los Cabos, both on the corridor and on the Pacific Side near Todos Santos. These projects include Dunna, the Park Hyatt and Nuevo Todos Santos.
Dunna is the new standard of luxury residences on the corridor just south of Cerro Colorado and nestled in the hills near the Westin Regina. Designed by the well-known Mexican Architects, Sordo Madaleno and developed by the company that has built luxury hotels in Cancun, Riveria Maya. and Costa Rica, Dunna provides a luxury lifestyle in both the residences and amenities. With 160 residences, villas and penthouses ranging from two- to five-bedrooms and 1,475 to 6,458 square feet, buyers can choose the home that best fits their lifestyle. The project has excellent amenities including multiple pools both on the ground and rooftop, with special pools and designated exclusively for adults or children. A Spa, Sports Center, Kids Center, Volleyball courts, BBQ area, fire pits, lounges, restaurant and bar and wellness center provide choices for a luxury lifestyle. In a partnership with the Westin Regina, Dunna has just announced the plans for its beach club also. Dunna will be built in three phases with a hotel, and seven blocks of residences. There will also be an on-site short-term rental program in place. Prices range from about $760,000 to $2,690,000.
The Park Hyatt hotel and residents are located within the private, gated community of Cabo del Sol. This exclusive collection of 19 residences —8apartments and 11 villas— offers a luxurious lifestyle enriched by world-class amenities and design. Residents enjoy the opportunity to apply for membership at
the prestigious Cove Club, featuring a Jack Nicklaus designed golf course, and also have access to the Cabo del Sol Golf Course by Tom Weiskopf. They also have access to the amenities of the Park Hyatt hotel. Designed by the well-known Mexican architects, Sordo Madaleno and developed by the Soma Group, the Park Hyatt offers the combination of lifestyle, luxury and access that is unparalleled on the corridor between San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. The Park Hyatt is adjacent the new luxury mall, Animas Village with shops by all of the top designers. Restaurants in the area provide a variety of choices for casual and fine dining. With access to the Cove Club and Soho House even more possibilities exist. Within the Park Hyatt hotel, residents have access to the Spa, restaurants, Fitness Center, Business Center, Kids Club and more, including a 15% discount on spa services and food and beverages.
