Find the right resort, the best region and the ultimate Mexican honeymoon spot just for you.
Los Cabos appeals to the Luxe Lovers
Just north of the dramatic rock arches marking land’s end of the 1,000-mile Baja Peninsula is Los Cabos, a resort area now known as Mexico’s most glamorous destination, luring bold-faced names in search of pampering in the sun. Here, it’s all high-end — from the rooms, the views and the dining to the spas and the championship golf. And the service in the sun-splashed hotels is seamless and friendly.
The poshness and privacy of Esperanza draws A-listers like Gwyneth Paltrow and husband Chris Martin, and celebrity brides including Lee Ann Rimes. Its 57 sumptuously furnished suites, casitas and villas open onto sparkling vistas of San Lucas Bay. Cocina del Mar restaurant, a breezy pavilion, is celebrated for its fresh-caught seafood, and an all-time guest favorite are the biologist-led whale-watching expeditions in speedboats. A yoga studio, ultra-relaxing spa and pretty beach fill out the offerings (room rates start at about $1,150 a night; esperanzaresort.com).
