The Drift San José is located in the laid-back resort town of San José del Cabo on the Southern tip of Mexico's Baja California peninsula. The owner purchased the building as an apartment complex in 2012 and transformed it into an eight-room boutique hotel complete with a pool, a roof deck, a food cart, and a popular mezcal bar—all of which are included in the listing for $2,600,000.

The hotel is one block from the town's main plaza and cathedral, and according to the write-up, it "makes the perfect base to dive Cabo Pulmo or surf Cerritos." The owner worked with architect Pablo Torres-Trueba over several years to renovate the property into a clean-lined, modern retreat with a palette of concrete, wood, and steel.

These include a kitchen/coffee bar that can double as a prep area for events or catering, a retail space featuring bespoke Mexico-made crafts, a mezcal bar, a food cart, a VIP lounge with a private entrance, and a private suite.

Miguel Hidalgo (between Obregon and Comonfort), Centro, 23400 San José del Cabo, is now being offered for $2,600,000 by León Sáenz at Last Rock Real Estate.
