About 3 or 4 years ago I met the people who run that place. they were European, and they were vary awkward.We asked them what the compound was all about, and they said it was a "corporate resort" but when we pressed further they clamed up.I have always thought it must be a scientology compound, and after seeing these picture I'm sure, It's a scientology compound!

Here is the link to the group behind the complex. You can investigate "San Juan De Las Pulgas" which I believe was on one of the signs posted. They were very evasive when we asked also.

Check out all the links and the slide show. The group that posted this website is trying to expose the organization. They apparently are world class rip off artists and probably choose this remote site to avoid being exposed and driven out. They have been ripping off money all over the globe for many years.

i've been surfing punta san jose for 20 years and i cant believe that this was built here. i remember when they started it years ago and im sorry they picked this spot. it doesnt belong here and it will only speed up the downfall of the baja. victor knows the whole history of these developer a-holes. long live the baja!!!!

Somewhat weird to know that the architect behind this complex is the son of Joern Utzon (of the Sidney Opera House).

The facilities are owned by the Danish (may be now international)company Tvind (under various names)and has been build as a congress center for people working in the Tvind organisation. It is build by Jan Utzon. There will often be 6-7 Danes living there, probably also the Tvind chairman Mogens Amdi Petersen. The above information has been found in the Danish newspaper Politiken (January 18 2009) where there is a full page description of the facilities (in Danish).

Tvind is the name of a small farm in Jutland in the west of Denmark - were the organisation were founded in 1970. On the photo here you can see the Tvind-windmill build on the school grounds. It was finished in 1976, at at that time it was the world's largest electricity producing windmill.

Dear all...I've been helping the folks at www.tvindalert.com to research Tvind activities in the USA. Do any of you know how to reach "Victor?" I would really like to find out more about this compound. If so please send me an email through the tvindalert.com website under "contact us." The message will get to me. This group, Tvind, is about as rotten as they come...ripping off the USA for millions in grants as well as making millions off of the used clothes people donate to them. Thanks for helping!
