January 12, 2010 - Welk Resorts opened its seventh vacation ownership resort last month - Sirena del Mar, located in Los Cabos, Mexico. Members of the Welk Resorts Platinum Program will now have access to the 222-unit, luxury project, which is situated on a seven-acre, seaside expanse overlooking the Sea of Cortez. Sirena del Mar or, “mermaid of the sea,” lies almost 15 miles east of the laid-back, colonial town of San Jose del Cabo and only four miles east of Mexico's trendiest hotspot, Cabo San Lucas. The resort enjoys the best of both these communities, which together constitute the world-famous tourist destination of Los Cabos.

Sirena del Mar is designed to invoke 'old world Mexico' with a contemporary flavor and crests a cliff 60 feet above the Sea of Cortez. From their villas, guests can enjoy a magnificent view of waves hitting rocky outcroppings below and the famous Cabo Arch. Complementing the resort's stunning appearance is the extraordinarily high level of friendly, personal service for which both Mexico and Welk Resorts are famous.

There's always plenty to do. Families and loved ones reconnect by swimming, snorkeling or enjoying a lazy day at the resort's secluded, semi-private cove beach. A short ride away are hundreds of shops and tiendas offering bargain prices for elegantly handcrafted goods from jewelry and clothing to home decor items. More adventuresome travelers can ramp up the pace with parasailing, jet skiing or an eco-tour into the heart of nearby Baja. Plus, the area's dining and nightlife enjoy well-deserved reputations for being first-rate and extremely affordable.

Vacationers staying at Sirena del Mar can 'people-watch' as cruise ships and other vessels come and go into the town's busy port. Owners can enjoy a swim-up bar in the vanishing edge pool, as well as breakfast and lunch at the main bar, in one of the palapas, or on the pool deck. In addition, there is a fitness room, game room and an owner's lounge. After a busy day of play, guests can unwind on their private balcony, watching an occasional whale spout during the winter migration and admire a romantic sunset over the ocean's horizon.

Designed so that all suites enjoy an ocean view, the resort will eventually have five buildings. Ranging from 1,375-square-foot penthouses, two-bedroom/two-bath villas and 1,370-square-foot two-bedroom units to 950-square-foot one-bedroom suites, each accommodation has a kitchen, living room, dining area, Jacuzzi, balcony or patio and a washer/dryer. The resort's decks feature a soothing wet-wall sculpture, thatched palapas and a fire-pit.
