Watch Nick Fong of Ronival Real Estate as he interviews Jacinto Avalos, a prominent resident in Cabo who is responsible for many of the most beautiful homes in Los Cabos. In this episode two, Nick meets up with Jacinto in his spectacular home, Casa Sin Nombre (“House without a name”). During the interview, they even discuss renaming the house so it has a real name—Nick arrived with a name in mind and reveals it toward the end of the interview.
Back in the first episode, Nick toured the house on video and discussed its various characteristics. After that, he set out to find a real name for this spectacular home in Pedregal. Keep reading to discover the new name and get inspired by what Jacinto has accomplished.
Jacinto Avalos’ remarkable design inspiration
Nick and Jacinto sit down at Casa Sin Nombre, which Jacinto designed and co-owns. Nick refers to it as an architectural masterpiece—from the elegant sliding pocket doors to the chef’s kitchen and BBQ area, every detail celebrates Cabo indoor–outdoor living.
When asked about his design process, Jacinto explains there are three key elements that guide his work. Resolve these, he says, and you’ll achieve a harmonious result.
Three primary design elements
1) Flexibility: Without a specific buyer at the outset, the home must adapt—like a tailored suit—to many potential owners.
2) The site itself: Each space is planned to maximize views and seasonal light, considering Cabo’s climate and the sun’s path across the year.
3) Architectural language: A style appropriate for resort homes in Cabo—timeless, functional, and connected to place.
How Casa Sin Nombre is situated
The lot’s topography called for a three-level home. The advantage? Wherever you are—terrace, living room, or primary suite—you capture sweeping panoramas of sea and mountains.
Discover Jacinto Avalos and his family
Originally from Mexico City, Jacinto and his wife Cecilia moved to Cabo in the mid-1990s with idealistic goals to contribute to community and family life. Cabo was still transitioning from fishing villages—scarce services, untouched nature, and endless potential.
Cabo then and now
Over 35 years, Cabo evolved into a world-class destination with celebrated resorts and activities for every budget—from desert adventures to ocean pursuits on the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific.
Activities Jacinto loves about Cabo
From beach time, horseback riding, surfing, fishing, snorkeling, and diving to championship play on Cabo golf courses, this region is a dream for year-round recreation.
Jacinto’s body of work
Focused on creating lifestyles rather than merely buildings, Jacinto has participated in 80–90 projects across Los Cabos—private homes, condos, and commercial spaces. He describes his role as service-oriented, collaborating closely with owners to “solve” their needs.

The renaming of Casa Sin Nombre
After viewers submitted dozens of ideas, Nick’s favorite—Casa Mar y Fuego (“House of Sea and Fire”)—won out. Jacinto suggested switching “Casa” to “Villa,” and the new name was born: Villa Mar y Fuego.
