Share The Article

As we at The Cabo Sun keep saying, Los Cabos is in the middle of a luxury surge—and now it’s getting global love.

Forbes Travel Guide just named Park Hyatt Los Cabos at Cabo del Sol to its list of the world’s most anticipated hotel openings, highlighting how this cliff-hugging newcomer will dial up the destination’s high-end game.

What Forbes singled out ⭐

The Park Hyatt isn’t just another pretty address on the Tourist Corridor.

According to Forbes Travel Guide’s preview, the resort will bring 163 water-facing rooms and suites, a 59,000-square-foot wellness facility, five restaurants and bars, five pools, a beach club, and access to world-class golf—all designed to blend into Cabo del Sol’s desert-meets-sea landscape.

Translation: serious spa time, destination dining, and sunsets you’ll tell your friends about.

Why Cabo del Sol keeps winning

If you’re new to the area, Cabo del Sol sits perfectly between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo—close to the action but with that tucked-away, private feel.

The enclave has been on a tear: the Four Seasons opened here recently, cementing the corridor’s status as the next must-book luxury playground. If you want a preview of the vibe next door, peek at our coverage of the Four Seasons Cabo San Lucas at Cabo del Sol opening.

And it’s not just Park Hyatt and Four Seasons. We’ve been tracking why six marquee luxury brands are choosing Los Cabos for their debuts before other Mexican beach hubs—think curated scale, high-touch service, and infrastructure that actually matches the promise. If you’re plotting 2026–2029 travel, that wave matters. (We break it down in our deep-dive on why top luxury names are picking Cabo first).

So…when can you check in?

Opening timelines shift—especially at the very top end.

Our earlier reporting pointed to an August 28, 2025 grand opening, while more recent coverage in Forbes suggests the property is tracking for October 2025. Either way, we’re talking “this season”—and prime holiday weeks will go fast.

Pro tip: New resorts often roll out soft-opening or early-season promos. We’ve been rounding up limited-time luxury deals across Los Cabos; keep an eye there if your dates are flexible and you want that “fresh-build” feel without the sticker shock.

What to expect on property

Park Hyatt’s design language leans understated—think sand-hued rooms that frame the Sea of Cortez, quiet-luxury service, and a culinary program that aims to make staying in as tempting as going out.

With multiple pools and that oversized wellness center, it reads like a wellness-plus-gastronomy getaway as much as a beach vacation.

Golfers, you’re covered too—Cabo del Sol’s courses are a stroll away.

Getting there & getting around (read this before you land)

Flying into SJD? There’s welcome news on the ground: Uber is now authorized for pickups at Los Cabos International Airport, though the process isn’t as obvious as tapping “Request” and walking out the door.

We explain exactly how it works—and the one step you can’t miss—in our airport ride guide.

Also note that authorities are cracking down on unlicensed “pirate taxis,” so stick with authorized options.

The bottom line

Forbes putting Park Hyatt Los Cabos on a short list with Lake Como, Vienna, and Tokyo is a big moment for Baja’s luxury story—and a validation of what travelers have been feeling on the ground: Los Cabos is playing in the global big leagues.

Whether you come for the spa, the scene, or the golf, this opening takes Cabo del Sol from “great option” to “book-it-now headliner.”

We’ll keep tracking final dates, opening offers, and first-look experiences as they go live.
