There is no party quite like New Year’s Eve in Cabo San Lucas. When the clock strikes midnight, the entire bay of Medano Beach lights up in a massive, coordinated pyrotechnic display that rivals major cities like Sydney or Dubai. It is a bucket-list experience.

Cabo San Lucas
It used to be simple. You booked an all-inclusive resort, you woke up early, you threw a towel on a chair, and that was your spot for the day. But if you have visited Los Cabos recently, you may have noticed a shift. The absolute best spots—the front-row ocean view loungers, the prime spot pool …
It is the bane of the Baja vacation.

We know the drill. You are packing to leave Cabo, and you want to bring a piece of the vacation home with you. You could buy a sombrero (which will get crushed on the plane), a shot glass (which you will never use), or a colorful blanket (which will unravel in the wash). Or, you …

It transforms a standard hotel room into a private aquatic …
If you google “romantic dinner in Cabo,” you will get a list of 50 places. They all have ocean views. They all have candlelit tables. They all serve seafood.
