The full ranking
Cliffside suites, Corridor beach resorts, and Pedregal hideaways: the Los Cabos hotels that top the luxury rankings.
Esperanza, Auberge Resorts Collection (Cabo San Lucas)
Cliffside casitas above two private coves on the Punta Ballena headland, with Cocina del Mar carved into the rocks below. The most romantic address in Cabo.
Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal (Cabo San Lucas)
Reached through a private tunnel bored into the mountain, with plunge pools in every room facing the Pacific surf. Routinely rated the best hotel in Mexico.
One&Only Palmilla (San José del Cabo)
The grande dame of Los Cabos on one of the few swimmable beaches, with butler service and Jean-Georges dining. Old-Cabo glamour at its highest pitch.
Las Ventanas al Paraíso, a Rosewood Resort (Tourist Corridor)
Where over-the-top service became the Cabo standard: tequila sommeliers, dream butlers, and suites with telescopes for whale watching.
Chileno Bay Resort, Auberge Resorts Collection (Tourist Corridor)
Modern minimalism on the corridor's best swimming bay, with a three-tier pool flowing toward protected snorkeling water. The contemporary pick of the luxury set.
Four Seasons Resort Cabo San Lucas at Cabo Del Sol (Tourist Corridor)
The newer Four Seasons spread across a golf-and-beach estate at Cabo Del Sol, with swimmable shoreline and a vast family pool scene.
Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas (East Cape)
Two hours up the East Cape on the Sea of Cortez, fronting a two-mile swimmable beach and a yacht-filled marina. Barefoot luxury far from the corridor crowds.
Zadún, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve (San José del Cabo)
One of only a handful of Ritz-Carlton Reserves on earth, with dune-toned villas and a spa hammam unmatched in Baja.
The Cape, a Thompson Hotel (Cabo San Lucas)
Brutalist-cool design hotel above Monuments surf break with the best Arch views in Cabo and a rooftop scene to match. Manta by Enrique Olvera anchors it.
Grand Velas Los Cabos (Tourist Corridor)
The all-inclusive done at a genuine luxury level: suites from 1,100 square feet and Cocina de Autor, Cabo's first two-Michelin-key fine dining room.
