Putting the hustle and bustle of life on hold for a while to enjoy a spectacular holiday away in Los Cabos, Mexico, is always an exciting moment for travelers. That said, how you choose to book your vacation rental when you’re here really matters, and can ultimately make a huge difference in your overall getaway experience. At Cabo Platinum, we encourage our guests to always book their holiday Los Cabos luxury rental direct through our team of dedicated property professionals over a third-party platform like Airbnb. The following are just a few of the many reasons why it’s the right choice.
Put Your Holiday Funds Towards the Luxury You Truly Deserve
You work hard for the money you earn, and when it comes to planning a lavish holiday away in Los Cabos, Mexico, every cent deserves to go towards those luxury moments you’ve been looking forward to most. Unfortunately, when travelers lean into booking their stay through third-party platforms like Airbnb, there’s a good chance that a large portion of funds will inevitably go towards unexpected and even hidden booking fees in the process. These fees are often hidden in the fine print and don’t come to your attention until well after your reservation is in place. To that end, it’s not uncommon for those who book their luxury vacation rental on platforms of this type to find themselves burdened with fees that span anywhere from 15% to 20% extra, on top of the booking cost itself. Not only is this unfair, but it causes a lot of frustration and disappointment for travelers before their holiday getaway has even begun.
At Cabo Platinum, we don’t believe that any trip deserves to include this kind of stress, and we encourage our guests to book direct with us instead as a sure way to avoid the unnecessary hassle. Here, we work on a foundation of clarity, integrity, and transparency when it comes to all booking costs. From the start, you’ll know exactly what’s owed on your luxury rental, and there will never be any surprises along the way. We want you to have an amazing stay in Los Cabos, and we know it begins with working hand-in-hand with professionals who have your best interests at heart during your holiday getaway.

Embrace World-Class Customer Care
When you book a luxury holiday retreat in Los Cabos, you should feel free to expect both incredible accommodations as well as world-class customer care standards along the way. Booking through a third-party platform like Airbnb simply doesn’t come with any type of guarantee that you’re going to be partnering with local property professionals who are there to help when questions or issues arise. That’s not the case for those who book direct through a property management team like Cabo Platinum instead. When you book direct with us, you can count on having access to our professional staff 24/7. We’re here to respond quickly when you have questions about your holiday property, or you’re looking for great and insightful local advice on activities and events to add to your holiday lineup that you might otherwise overlook. We also offer our guests access to our concierge team, which can tailor each and every moment of your holiday getaway further, to fit your unique travel style perfectly.

Flexible Policies to Meet Your Every Need
Booking through a third-party platform can mean locking yourself into a holiday reservation with very little wiggle room to work with if plans change unexpectedly. At Cabo Platinum, we know that life happens, and when you book your stay direct through us, you’ll find we’re more than happy to help when you need to adjust your travel dates, switch reservation options, or even cancel and book at a later date entirely. We want you to have the peace of mind you deserve, and our flexible and caring staff makes it a point to prove that to every guest we work alongside.

In this day and time, we are very fortunate to have so many “Stay and Play” options when planning a trip. Not only in the United States, but all over the world, there are “Stay and Play” opportunities for every type of traveler! With all of the options and email promotions available to you, where do you start when trying to book your next Stay and Play vacation? I recommend that you consider the following six categories when choosing where to go next:
- Geographical Location – They say “location, location, location” for a reason! The geographical location of your resort will determine many of your vacation’s details, including climate, travel time, and surrounding culture.
- Weather – Warm, dry, and sunny weather makes for perfect golf conditions!
- Proximity – How many flights do you have to take to arrive at your destination? How many flights per day are available from your local airport? How easy is it to get to your resort once you’ve landed?
- Ranked Golf Courses – Once you’ve narrowed down a geographical location, check to see if there are any top ranked or bucket list golf courses you’d love to play!
- Accommodations – Depending on the size of your group, the ages of the individuals, and everyone’s preferences, you may need specific amenities to accommodate all of your guests’ needs e.g., a large kitchen, 5 bedrooms, a private pool.
- Customization – I always recommend that you customize your amenities within any resort’s “Stay and Play” options to ensure that the package is best suited to your needs and wants. This will guarantee a unique and memorable “Stay and Play” experience for everyone in your group!
After assessing the above categories, Los Cabos becomes the easy pick for your next “Stay and Play” vacation! The perfect weather, ease of access, and warm, Mexican culture combine for a perfect getaway. Los Cabos also has top ranked golf courses such as the Dunes and El Cardonal Golf Courses at Diamante Cabo San Lucas. The Dunes Golf Course is ranked 36th in the world, and El Cardonal is the first golf course ever built by Tiger Woods!
