When a magical weekend away from the demands of life is exactly what you need, setting your travel sights on Los Cabos, Mexico is a must. Sitting at the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula, this sun-soaked destination is home to a rich culture, vibrant landscapes, and seemingly endless options to build high-end, luxurious experiences into your stay. Whether you’re one for the sand, the flavor, or the waves, you’ll find everything you’re looking for and more here. When it’s time to stop planning and start traveling, the following is your complete itinerary for a weekend trip to Cabo that you won’t soon forget!
Arrive Friday Afternoon or Evening in Style
If your work and life schedule allows for it, you’ll want to aim for arriving in Cabo by Friday afternoon or early evening so you can really maximize your time. Many travelers opt to fly into the Los Cabos International Airport and take a private shuttle to their accommodations in town. However, when you book your luxury weekend retreat through Cabo Platinum, we can arrange for private transportation to meet you upon arrival. If you’re looking to really lean into luxury, we’re more than happy to book you a private charter flight in as well.
Once you’re settled in, take some time to stroll around the Cabo San Lucas Marina to get acquainted with the area, enjoy the warm evening breeze, and check out some of the local eateries, shops, and yacht-lined waters as well. Tonight, you can treat yourself to dinner in your luxury rental with the help of a private in-home chef. This will ensure your meal is exactly paired to your taste, and that you get plenty of follow-up rest for the weekend of fun ahead.
Start Saturday Out on the Waves
When you only have a weekend to spare in Cabo, it’s definitely worth your while to hit up some of the area’s most iconic landmarks, and among them is Land’s End. After a hearty breakfast enjoyed on your rental’s elegant patio overlooking the water, we suggest hopping on a boat tour out to Land’s End with opportunities to make stops at places like Lover’s Beach along the way. There’s nothing more refreshing than starting your day with sunbathing, snorkeling, and even spotting sea lions as you sail along!
Enjoy a Beach Lunch and an Afternoon of Thrills
Once you’re back on land, it’s time to make your way to scenic Medano Beach. This is not only a beautiful place to find yourself and admire your surroundings, but a top area for lunch on the sand as well. Consider enjoying a casual meal at the Tabasco Beach Bar where steak tacos and beef nachos can be enjoyed from your place on the open-air patio.
When you’re satisfied, it’s the perfect time to carve out a place in your itinerary for an ATV tour. If you’re someone who enjoys high-energy thrills, this type of guided activity will speak to your interests, while also providing you with a truly unique way to take in the desert surroundings that encompass Los Cabos.
Slow Things Down in the Evening Hours
Tonight, you’re going to want to reward yourself for all the adventures you’ve had by enjoying an in-room massage set up on your behalf by the concierge team at Cabo Platinum. We’ll make sure your masseuse is ready and waiting when you arrive back at your home-away-from-home to help you work out any sore muscles you’ve earned during your day of exploration. Whether you stick with a massage or pair it with hot stones and aromatherapy, you’ll be feeling your absolute best at the end.
Afterward, consider making your way to Edith’s in the heart of Cabo San Lucas to enjoy an upscale dining experience alongside your fellow travelers. You’ll need reservations in place to settle into their garden patio and enjoy traditional Mexican fare, steak, and lobster while surrounded by twinkling lanterns. On many evenings musicians are on hand to serenade dining patrons, too.
Sunday Should Start with a Focus on Tranquility and Wellness
The last day of your weekend stay in Cabo is an amazing opportunity to begin the day with yoga on the sand. If you’ve booked a beachside luxury retreat, you won’t have to go far to move through your poses, alongside the sunrise.
Once you’ve found your sense of Zen, it’s time to head over to Flora Farms and settle in for a fantastic brunch with a focus on farm-to-table fare. The wood-fired dishes are sure to delight, but it might just be the gorgeous garden views that make this meal most memorable.
Explore San Jose del Cabo
Many would consider San Jose del Cabo the cultural center of the region, and Sunday afternoon is a great opportunity to see it all for yourself. Head to the town’s main square to enjoy admiring historic architecture, visiting vendors selling handcrafted goods, and popping in and out of beautiful art galleries as well.
End Your Stay on a Scenic Note
Your weekend in Cabo should end on a scenic and savory note. A great way to accomplish that is to plan on booking your place on a sunset catamaran dinner cruise to top your vacation off in impeccable style. At Cabo Platinum, our concierge team is more than happy to help you get this organized, so your onboard dinner leaves plenty of time for you to catch your flight out of town stress-free.
