"Among Mexican beach resorts, modern design isn’t exactly an everyday sight. But hotelier Rafael Sainz Skewes set out to challenge the thatched-roof stereotype. There’s no reason sun, sand and surf can’t comfortably coexist with clean-lined, modern concrete architecture. Here, in the seaside village of Troncones, is the distinctly modernist, totally unforgettable Hotel Lo Sereno Casa de Playa." - Mark Fedeli
