Five-star hotels in Cabo San Lucas cluster around El Medano Beach, the Marina, and the exclusive Pedregal peninsula. Expect private beach access, multiple pools, and full-service spas. Most properties offer all-inclusive or room-only plans; premium suites with plunge pools and ocean views are common in the Pedregal area. Rates start around $350 per night for garden-view rooms and exceed $1,000 for top-tier suites during high season (November-April).
The Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal provides private pools in every room and a complimentary margarita on arrival-ideal for couples. Grand Velas Los Cabos in San José del Cabo draws families with three infinity pools, a kids' club, and a Michelin-starred restaurant. Adults-only travelers should consider Breathless Cabo San Lucas (on El Medano Beach with nightly theme parties) or Riu Palace Baja California (beachfront with tennis and nightclub). Budget for airport transfers: Los Cabos International Airport is 45 km from the Marina and 22 km from San José del Cabo.
