The Finer Details of Episode 83: Hacienda Del Sol Resort Media Trip With My Mom

In today’s episode, Penny Williams and I discuss how I received an media invitation to Hacienda Del Sol. We also discuss our weekend itinerary and our absolute favorite experiences during our press trip.  

Hacienda Del Sol is a high-end circa-1929 resort set on 39 acres in the Catalina foothills. The rustic-chic historic hacienda’s story began in 1929, and the property was originally a “home away from home” ranch school for the daughters of society’s elite families such as Vanderbilt, Pillsbury, Maxwell, Westinghouse, and Campbell. In 1948, Hacienda Del Sol was converted into a guest ranch that immediately attracted the Hollywood’s most popular stars such as Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, John Wayne, Clark Gable and Howard Hughes.
