Founder
Margot Stern grew up in Philadelphia and found her way to Todos Santos, Mexico in 2014 where she helped her friend, Erin launch La Bohemia Baja Hotel Pequeño which remains beloved by travelers from all over the world. A self-proclaimed travel advocate with a naturally social spirit and a tendency to be labeled as “intense,” by laid-back locals, Margot wanted to create something uniquely appropriate for people like herself. Avenida Baja was conceptualized as a place for sojourners who are just as passionate about career aspirations as they are about finding the best fish tacos, sitting in front of a beach bonfire & forging friendships that last a lifetime.
Margot’s former global brand leadership experience includes the management of a 450 million dollar consumer products portfolio for Mattel and Disney. She has an MBA from The Wharton School as well as a Masters in International Studies from The Lauder Institute at The University of Pennsylvania.
She has now turned her focus to The Hopewell, A conservation-minded hospitality experience in an old country manor on 24 secluded acres. The Hopewell introduces humble luxuries and farm-to-table appeal in a verdant, countryside setting nearby historic rivertowns of New Hope and Lambertville. Offering the simple pleasures of the American pastoral tradition reinvented for the urban-explorer.
Margot lives with her daughter, Lila and her two mexican dogs Kiki & Topo.
