We&#146;re fans of anything that lightens our carry-on load, so books in our room or lobby are welcome. We like to leaf through those big, sexy art books that hotels like the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/7/9/113536/1241/hotels/Cooper_Square_Guests_Like_Their_Books_Arty_And_a_Little_Sexy_Too_"><b>Cooper Square</b></a> and the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/7/21/104438/934/hotels/Browsing_the_Greenwich_Hotel_s_Bookshelves"><b>Greenwich Hotel</b></a> in New York stock bedside, and occasionally we might reacquaint ourselves with a classic while we wait for room service. <p>But the best thing about the books available for guests at <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Las+Ventanas+al+Paraiso/local/185"><b>Las Ventanas al Paraíso</b></a> in Los Cabos, Mexico is the fact that you can read them before anyone back home.

You know we love the infinity pools and the Department of Romance (staffed by a dedicated "Romance Coordinator") at the Las Ventanas al Paraiso resort in Cabo, but now it seems like the hotel figures all guests really need is a shot of good tequila to get the fiesta going.

Before you ask: no, this is not your chance to relive that glorious (and foggy) spring break you spent in Cancun doing body shots off sunburned coeds. The exclusive hotel is now offering classes led by their in-house Tequileros on the fine art of tequila appreciation. And you even get a diploma at the end...provided you’re coherent enough to answer the final test question.
