Los Cabos' most complete luxury family resort — the area's only other swimmable beach, a dedicated kids' club, three pools, and four restaurants. Staffing ratio and service consistency are genuinely exceptional; older children benefit as much as parents.
Why We Chose It
One&Only Palmilla occupies a private promontory near San José del Cabo with one of the only naturally calm, swimmable bays in Los Cabos. The resort has been hosting celebrities since 1956 — it was the first resort in Baja. The Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course has some of the most dramatic ocean views in golf. Suviche by Jean-Georges serves sushi and ceviche from the ocean's edge. The service ratio is extraordinary.
What Stands Out
- One of the only naturally swimmable private bays in Los Cabos
- Suviche by Jean-Georges Vongerichten — sushi and ceviche by the sea
- Jack Nicklaus golf course with dramatic ocean views
- Most storied resort in Baja — open since 1956
- Exceptional service ratio — some of the best in Mexico
