About Palmilla
What makes Palmilla different
Palmilla is the most established luxury enclave in Los Cabos. Anchored by the One&Only Palmilla resort and the Jack Nicklaus-designed Palmilla Golf Club, this stretch of the Corridor has been the address of choice for diplomats, executives, and families for three decades.
Homes here range from $3.5M villas to $35M oceanfront estates. The Sea of Cortez along Palmilla is one of the few stretches in Cabo San Lucas where the water is calm enough to swim — a quiet but rare amenity that drives sustained appreciation.
Buy in Palmilla when you want a stable luxury asset, easy resale, and a neighborhood that won't reinvent itself every five years.

FAQ
Palmilla, answered
Is Palmilla a gated community?
Yes — 24/7 guarded gates, on-site security, and the One&Only resort security overlaps with the residential entrance. Each home also typically has its own private gate inside the community.
Can I rent my home in Palmilla?
Yes, and many owners do. A 5-6 bedroom villa rents for $8,000-$25,000/night in peak season and books 18-26 weeks/year. The One&Only resort's presence drives steady inquiry volume year-round.
What are Palmilla HOA fees like?
Roughly $1,500-$3,500/month depending on lot size, residential section, and whether you participate in the One&Only homeowners' amenities program. Property tax in Mexico is minimal (~0.05% of cadastral value).
How is Palmilla different from Pedregal?
Palmilla is Corridor: beachfront, golf, resort, established. Pedregal is Cabo San Lucas: cliffside, walking distance to marina + downtown, more vertical (homes carved into cliffs). Palmilla is for the quiet-luxury family, Pedregal is for entertainment-heavy owners.
