Los Cabos and the surrounding Baja Peninsula have never been shy about their scenery. This is a place where desert cliffs drop straight into electric-blue water, whales breach just offshore, and sunsets take over the entire sky with awe-inspiring colors. Over the past decade, the region has evolved from a spring-break favorite into one of Mexico’s most polished and diverse hotel destinations. Travelers come for the easy flights from the US, but return over and over, like me, for the drama of the setting and the level of hospitality that keeps outdoing itself.
There is just so much on offer in Los Cabos. You can check into design-forward resorts carved into the coastline, quiet luxury escapes that feel almost meditative in their calm, lively beachfront stays centered around swimmable coves, or boutique hideaways that tap into Baja’s creative, sun-drenched spirit. And the growth continues with an array of high-end resorts slated to open by 2030 (hello, Aman!).
