Planning a trip to Cabo?
For an ultimate luxury touch, ask our concierge about a private 'temazcal' ceremony at your villa or a secluded beach. It's an ancient indigenous steam bath ritual offering purification and deep relaxation, a truly unique and spiritual indulgence.
The peak season from November to April offers the most ideal weather for a luxury splurge, with comfortable temperatures (75-85°F) and minimal humidity. This is also prime time for whale watching. For sport fishing enthusiasts, June to November is best for marlin, though it can be warmer and more humid.
