If you're reading this, it's because you've already taken the first step: choosing the best destination in Mexico. Los Cabos isn't just about the beach; it's that place where the desert meets the sea. Honestly, after years of watching travelers explore Baja California Sur, I've learned that a week is the perfect amount of time to take your time and truly enjoy yourself.

Option 1: Family Fun

Discover the perfect combination of luxury and nature in Mexico's most exclusive destination. These itineraries are designed to offer a seamless and enriching experience.

Option 1: Touching Down & "Vacay Mode"

Morning

Arrival at San José del Cabo Airport (SJD). Pro tip: Pre-book your private shuttle. Navigating the airport exit with luggage and kids can be a bit of a circus.

Midday

Check into the resort. Don’t overthink it—let the kids hit the pool immediately while you order that first round of poolside snacks.

Evening

Low-key dinner at the hotel. Rest up; the real fun starts tomorrow.

Day 2: The Arch & Marine Life

Morning

Glass-bottom boat tour to The Arch (El Arco). It’s the "must-have" photo. Keep an eye out for the sea lions sunbathing on the rocks; they’re the local celebrities.

Midday

Spend time at Medano Beach. It’s the safest swimmable beach for kids, with calm waters and plenty of spots to grab a taco.

Evening

Stroll through the Cabo San Lucas Marina.

Day 3: Camels & Desert Vibes

Morning

Camel Safari! It sounds wild for Mexico, but kids absolutely love it. It’s a unique way to see the Baja dunes and coastline.

Midday

Mexican-style lunch (usually included in the tour). The desert sun is no joke, so keep everyone hydrated.

Evening

Dinner in San José del Cabo. It’s much quieter than Cabo San Lucas and has a lovely "old town" feel.

Day 4: Snorkeling Adventure.

Morning

Head to Chileno Bay or Santa Maria. These are protected bays that look like giant swimming pools filled with colorful fish.

Midday

Back to the resort. This is the perfect time to use the "Kids Club" so parents can actually read a book or catch a nap.

Evening

Family game night or an outdoor movie at the hotel.

Day 5: San José & Farm-to-Table

Morning

Visit the San José Estuary. It’s a natural oasis, great for a light walk and bird watching.

Midday

Lunch at Flora Farms or Acre. These are world-famous "farm-to-table" spots. The food is incredible, and there’s plenty of space for kids to run around.

Evening

Walk the main plaza. If it's a Thursday, you'll catch the Art Walk—super vibrant and fun for all ages.

Day 6: Whales or Adventure Parks

Morning

If you’re here Dec-March, whale watching is non-negotiable. Otherwise, hit Wild Canyon for ziplining and suspension bridges.

Midday

Last-minute souvenir shopping at Puerto Paraíso or Luxury Avenue.

Evening

Farewell dinner with a Mexican fire show or live music. Go big for the last night!

Day 7: Final Splash & Departure

Morning

Long, slow buffet breakfast. The kind where you go back for seconds (and thirds).

Midday

Final pool session and packing up.

Evening

Head to the airport. (You'll miss that Baja breeze the second you board).


Option 2: Romantic Escape

If you come as a couple, the atmosphere changes. Here we seek sunsets, good food, and those moments where time stands still.

Day 1: The opening toast.

Morning

Arrival and transfer. Nothing like starting with a cold drink on the way.

Midday

Check in at your resort. My recommendation: ask for a room with a view of the Sea of Cortez.

Evening

Dinner at Sunset Monalisa. It's probably the most romantic table in the world. The Arch as you set... it's flawless.

Day 2: Dia de navegar.

Morning

Morning of total laziness. Breakfast in the room.

Tarde

Charter a private yacht or sailboat at sunset. Sailing towards Land's End with a cheese and wine platter is next level.

Evening

Light seafood dinner at the Marina.

Day 3: Well-being and mysticism.

Morning

Enjoy a Temazcal session or a couples massage. Los Cabos spas are among the best in the world, so take advantage of it.

Midday

Lunch at the beach club. Soft music, a sun lounger, and total relaxation.

Evening

Have dinner in downtown San Jose. Look for an interior courtyard with hanging lights; the atmosphere is magical.

Day 4: Todos Santos (Magic Town)

Morning

Rent a car or book a tour to Todos Santos (it's an hour away). It's an artists' town, with galleries and the famous Hotel California.

Midday

Lunch at the Hotel San Cristóbal or a local chef's restaurant. The vibe is much more bohemian and relaxed.

Evening

Back to San Jose del Cabo and a glass of wine on the balcony watching the stars.

Day 5: Golf or a sunrise hike

Morning

If you love golf, these are some of the most incredible courses. If not, take a walk on the beach at sunrise and discover breathtaking scenery.

Midday

Food in Acre. You have to try the mezcal cocktails; they're famous for a reason.

Evening

Fine dining. Los Cabos is a top-tier culinary destination, so don't hold back tonight.

Day 6: Beach and Relax.

Morning

Look for a less crowded beach like Palmilla Beach. It's beautiful and very peaceful for swimming together.

Midday

Sit back and watch the whales from the shore (if it's the season) or simply enjoy the pool service.

Evening

Farewell dinner in downtown San Jose del Cabo and a walk through the art district to enjoy the galleries and the atmosphere of the Art Walk.

Day 7: The last cafe with a view.

Morning

A walk along the beach at sunrise, or sipping coffee from your hotel room balcony, is the perfect time to connect.

Midday

Relaxed brunch and transfer to the airport.

Evening

Arriving home with a full heart and tanned skin.
