The Bacara Resort and Spa

SONY DSCIf you are looking for a nice relaxing vacation or getaway weekend and are willing to spend some money – The Bacara Resort and Spa is a great choice!  Located North of the downtown, this resort has it all.  Beach, pool, spa, dining, views and a fantastic wine room!  T.W.O. spent a lovely afternoon walking around the grounds and some time in the Foley Wine Room.  (More to come on that in a later post!)

 This Spanish-style resort is welcoming right when you pull in.  The “piazza” has a gorgeous fountain that is calming and the service is fantastic.  The lobby is inviting with the beautiful floral arrangements and the complimentary lemon and cucumber water.  It feels like you walked into the ultimate spa!  The outside amenities include a pool, cabanas, fire pits, outdoor seating and the best part – views of the ocean.

 Check out some of T.W.O.’s favorite highlights of the Bacara!

Del Mar Weekend

T.W.O. loves spending their weekends in Del Mar. This past weekend, we enjoyed morning runs, fresh baked goods, farmers market and home cooked gourmet dinners. Thank you Del Mar for a wonderful weekend!

 T.W.O. started Saturday morning off with a long run along the coastline of Del Mar. Our halfway point led us to this beautiful scenery. You would never guess it was winter based on the amount of surfers out in the ocean or the people in light jackets!

Next stop was to a local, family owed bakery called Village Mill Bread Company. The bakery is filled with a variety of organic breads, pastries, donuts, jams, nut butters, desserts and coffees! So whether you need bread for sandwiches, an appetizer, a meal or your sweet tooth- Village Mill has it! Their cinnamon rolls and challah are outstanding- T.W.O. would highly recommend these two! And their coffee is from Bird Rock Coffee Company, which is out of this world. Don’t miss out and stop by Village Mill Bread Company if you are visiting or live in the Del Mar area!

T.W.O. absolutely loves farmers markets. Whether they are oversees or in the United States, we will never pass up visiting a farmers market. This past Saturday, we decided to go to the Del Mar Farmers Market, which happens every Saturday from 12-4pm. It’s on the smaller side compared to other San Diego famers markets, but definitely does not lack on quality! From produce, fresh seafood, flowers, nuts, authentic cuisines- Del Mar Farmers Market has it! Just make sure to bring cash!

To complete a great weekend, T.W.O. decided to take in the beautiful views Del Mar has to offer. Looking north, you see the coastline leading up to Orange County; looking south, you see the shores of La Jolla. It’s so picturesque- we have not complaints!
