Best Luxury Resort Cabo
Cabo's luxury tier is world-class — five properties here regularly rank among the top resorts in North America, with service and settings that rival anywhere on earth.
The top luxury resorts in Cabo are Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal, One&Only Palmilla, Montage Los Cabos, Chileno Bay (Auberge), Esperanza (Auberge), Zadún (Ritz-Carlton Reserve), and Las Ventanas al Paraíso (Rosewood). Expect $800-3,000+ per night.
Cabo's luxury resort scene is stacked. The concentration of ultra-high-end properties along the Tourist Corridor between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo rivals anywhere in the Americas.
Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal is the flagship — accessed through a private tunnel carved through the mountain, with 115 rooms all featuring private plunge pools, butler service, and dramatic Pacific views. The on-site restaurant Don Manuel's is one of the best fine dining experiences in Mexico.
One&Only Palmilla is the OG Cabo luxury property. Originally opened in 1956 as a retreat for Hollywood stars, it sits on the only swimmable beach on the Corridor and offers 173 casita-style rooms with impeccable service.
Montage Los Cabos on Santa Maria Bay brings the Montage brand's signature California luxury to Baja. The snorkeling right off the beach is the best of any resort in Cabo, and Mezcal restaurant is outstanding.
Zadún, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, is the newest ultra-luxury entry — only the fourth Reserve property worldwide. Dramatic desert-meets-ocean architecture with rates starting around $1,500/night.
Esperanza (Auberge) offers a more intimate luxury experience with 59 casitas on Punta Ballena. The spa is consistently rated among Mexico's best.
Chileno Bay Resort (also Auberge) sits on Chileno Beach — one of the few Blue Flag certified beaches in Cabo — and is popular with families who want luxury without stuffiness.
