Ultimate Guide to the Best Resorts in Cabo San Lucas

Guide to Cabo Luxury Hotels

Los Cabos is a special destination where the mountains, desert and the sea converge- located in Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula. You can find what is known as “Land’s End” at the southern most tip of the peninsula where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, marked by the famous arch known as ‘El Arco.’


It encompasses the towns of Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo and offers a wide array of activities such as golf, sport fishing, whale watching, diving, snorkeling and much more. The charming town of Cabo San Lucas features a great culinary scene, nightlife and entertainment options.

Once you’ve visited Cabo, I can almost guarantee you’ll want to return. There is something special about it that will leave you wanting more. Maybe it’s the waves crashing into the rocks, the contrast of the desert and the ocean or the local culture and cuisine- or the combination of it all.
This past May we had the chance to visit a few of the top luxury resorts in Cabo including Esperanza, The Resort at Pedregal, Chileno Bay and Montage. We’ll share some of the highlights from these resorts as well as important details for each property. Each is unique and has something special to offer. Read on to discover some of the top luxury hotels in Cabo San Lucas!
