All types of travelers, young and old, visit Los Cabos, but over the last few years, it has become a destination more frequented by luxury travelers.

The Two Very Different Towns That Make Up Los Cabos 

One of the things that makes Los Cabos so popular is that it really is two destinations in one.   

It consists of two very different towns, Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo.   

Cabo San Lucas is more for travelers looking for the party scene and who want to enjoy water activities.   

On the other hand, San Jose del Cabo is ideal for those looking for relaxation and to experience culture.

Luxury Hotels For Everyone 

Another huge draw for travelers who choose Los Cabos as a vacation destination is the long list of luxury hotels in the destination.   

Los Cabos is known for having both luxury and super luxury hotels.   

Even though they can be pricey, the rates do range considerably and there is literally something for everyone and every budget.

Los Cabos is a luxury destination where you can stay in luxury hotels, have luxury experiences, and be treated to high-end luxury service.   

For many travelers, that makes it well worth the high price tag.

The Diverse Offering Of Things To Do 

Some destinations travelers visit for marine activities or the amazing beaches, and others they visit for a cultural experience.   

Some destinations are known for their culinary scene, while others might be known for their opportunity to get outdoors.   

Los Cabos is known for all of those things and more.   

It’s this diverse offering of things to do that has travelers repeatedly coming back for more.

It’s A Year-Round Destination  

Another reason travelers love Los Cabos is that it’s a year-round destination, and there really is no bad time to visit.   

It is much busier during the spring and winter because the weather is beautiful and perfect for escaping the cold in much of the U.S.   

The summers are hot but bearable and perfect for beach days, and although fall is technically the rainy season, there’s still plenty of sunshine.
