Meet the Heart Behind Sonadora Resort: The Visionaries Who Bring Your Baja Escape to Life
At the edge of the Sea of Cortez in El Cardonal, Baja California Sur, sits a luxury oceanfront escape infused with warmth, joy, and decades of love: Sonadora Resort. But the real magic of Sonadora isn’t just in its world-class views or barefoot luxury—it’s in the people who brought it to life and continue to make it unforgettable.
🐟 Ken & Lynda: The Dreamers Behind Sonadora
For over 25 years, Ken and Lynda have called the Baja peninsula home. Drawn originally by the promise of world-class sport fishing, Ken fell in love with the pristine shoreline, vibrant marine life, and peaceful rhythms of El Cardonal. He bought the property as a 50th birthday gift to himself. But what began as a fishing getaway soon became something much more meaningful.
Eight years ago, Ken and Lynda began building their dream: a place to share the beauty, serenity, and lifestyle of Baja with others. That dream became Sonadora Resort, which translates to “a woman’s dream” in Spanish. This coastal retreat is designed for travelers seeking relaxation, connection, and elevated experiences surrounded by nature.
Together, they’ve built more than a resort—they’ve built a home. With a growing family of twelve, including five grandchildren, Sonadora is often filled with laughter, barefoot children, long meals, and beachside memories. Their love for this land and lifestyle is reflected in every palm tree planted, every hammock strung, and every guest welcomed.
Ken spent much of his life as a home builder and developer in California, and has brought that luxury and quality to Mexico for your perfect getaway.
🏡 A Place Built With Heart
More than just beautiful architecture or luxury amenities, what sets Sonadora apart is the care behind every detail. As Ken puts it: “Our staff is like family, and they treat Sonadora as if it were their own.”
From design to service, Ken and Lynda’s personal touch is everywhere—inviting guests to feel not like tourists, but like part of something personal and real.
