Investing Mexico real estate means investing in luxury, and it has been for decades. Indeed, with its location at the tip of the Baja Peninsula where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez, Cabo San Lucas has a well-deserved reputation for being among the most alluring places in the world. With the right guidance, real estate in the Baja region can be an exceedingly-rewarding investment.

With that in mind, the single most important piece of advice for those involved in Cabo real estate is to know what you want and the type of properties you are looking for. As with elsewhere, there is quite a bit of diversity in Cabo San Lucas properties. For example, a great many of the communities in Los Cabos have a view of the Ocean, while others homes on the MLS are oceanfront. You can find hidden opportunities with buildable land, as well as conversion of commercial properties. So ask yourself, what do you value? Is proximity to a bustling beach important? Or are you only interested in communities that have world-class golf? Is nightly rental income an important aspect of your purchase? All of these, and more, are important questions.

While the range of Cabos San Lucas properties is diverse and always-changing, several communities have entrenched themselves as the most sought after in the region, and it’s those communities that merit increased focus. The following list will help real estate investors understand the intricacies of the developments that have proven effective as the best ROI opportunities.

PEDREGAL OF CABO SAN LUCAS

Pedregal is a gated community in Los Cabos that features neighborhoods and sub-communities consisting of a mix of freestanding homes as well as condo complexes. It is widely known within Cabo real estate listings as having some of the best properties that feature absolutely stunning views of the marina, Land’s End, and, of course, the Pacific Ocean. That, however, is not all that Pedregal has to offer.

This community also features a wide range of amenities one would expect from a world-class beach destination, including access to a spa, tennis courts, a gym, 24-hour guard-gated security, and the beach, specifically Pedregal beach, from which it derives its name. Pedregal Beach has tough currents and a strong undertow. As a result, swimming is not advised, and this area is known more for its breath-taking views and photo opportunities than it is for swimming. In fact, with its angle toward the Pacific Ocean, Pedregal boasts some of the most spectacular sweeping sunset vistas in all of Mexico. Stretches of long white sands combined with cooling winds right off the water also make this area one of the top choices for a relaxing walk on the beach. Finally, the rock formations along the Pacific Ocean coast create jaw-dropping locales to take photos with loved ones.

Important to most homeowners and nightly vacation villa guests is Pedregal's convenient proximity to Los Cabos' downtown. Even from the extremities of Pedregal, almost every villa ensures less than a 10-minute cab ride. Pedregal also maintains its own desalination plant to ensure access to water is never interrupted. Finally, another feature that has long made Pedregal a popular choice for real estate investors and those looking for full-time or part-time residency in the area is the topography. With many homes and condos built into the sides of hills facing the ocean, this neighborhood has been a magnet for celebrities and others interested in the finest choices Cabo San Lucas has to offer.

Popular with those looking for the best Cabo San Lucas properties, Pedregal has a unique ability to maintain a consistent rental calendar, while maintaining low annual costs. The strategy for a great investment in Pedregal real estate for nightly rental ROI is really an important part of the collaboration between Buyer and Real Estate Agent. It’s not a surprise that Pedregal is in the top-tier of Cabo Real Estate offerings, combining as it does access to one of the most picturesque beaches in the area with some of the most luxurious housing options in the world.

HACIENDA BEACH CLUB & RESIDENCES

With a mix of condos and luxury homes and close proximity to EVERYTHING, Hacienda Beach Club and Residences is one of the most popular real estate communities in Los Cabos. There is a mix of reasons as to why, but chief among them is that this gated community has an absolutely stellar location. Yes, from the Hacienda Beach Club and Residences, one can walk downtown, to the marina, or to the fabulous Medano Beach, one of the most popular swimmable beaches in not only the area but in all of Mexico.

In addition, Hacienda has one of the best sets of features in the area, placing it near the top of the list of locations for ideal vacation real estate in Mexico Hacienda Beach Club and Residents is simply a fun and luxurious place to live, with an on-site restaurant and a world-class gym and spa, a full concierge service, walking distance to everything, a dedicated desalination plant that ensures the properties will never lack access to potable water, and more.

Located directly on Medano Beach, people dining in Hacienda Cocina y Cantina can see vendors with t-shirts, trinkets, and many other goods to sell. Although these salesmen can be a nuisance on Medano Beach, many people find the negotiating fun and “easy shopping.” For those that enjoy this shopping adventure, Hacienda Beach Club and Residences is also close to a wide range of beach-side cantinas for guests to enjoy meals or drinks while taking in ocean views and listening to the waves. There are many options as well, with locales like Mango Deck providing a livelier Spring Break-style party atmosphere, while venues such as Baja Brewing Company cater to those with a fine palate for craft beers. Medano Beach is also the perfect place to try a raspado (snow cone) on those hot and sunny days. Really, Medano ranks as easily the best water front area for bars and restaurants. Thankfully, Hacienda is located in the heart of the action.

Hacienda Beach Club has a myriad of full-ownership real estate offerings. Of the 109 properties, 16 of them are called “Villas.” These are 4-bedroom beachfront, free-standing homes, which come complete with a plunge pool, hot tub, outdoor BBQ, private steps to the beach and a golf cart; meant to zip you around the community.

VILLAS DEL MAR

The Villas Del Mar community, with its ideal location on the Palmilla Peninsula, offers a wide range of real estate opportunities. From ocean-side villas to mountainside casitas, this gated development has some of the most stunning ocean views in the region, which make properties in Villas del Mar extremely attractive.

Like many other Cabo San Lucas luxury developments, Villas Del Mar boasts a list of amenities such as access to a private beach, tennis courts, a spa, world-class gym, and more. Many of these can be found in the world-famous Club 96. Known to locals as “The place to be,” Club 96 is a thriving compound of luxury and indulgence. Villas del Mar is also popular among golfers because its location puts it in strategic proximity to the some of the region’s top choices for a round of golf, including the courses of Cabo Del Sol, Cabo Real, Puerto Los Cabos, and Club Campestre and Palmilla. These are all top-tier choices for a relaxing round, and they are located within a quick drive of Villas Del Mar. The Palmilla Golf Club, with its Jack Nicklaus signature course, has been among the most popular in all of Mexico since it debuted back in 1993.

The views of the Sea of Cortez and the location a bit further up the coast combine to make Villas Del Mar an excellent option for those who enjoy wide views, relaxing open spaces that also offer privacy, and spending time in the upper echelon of luxury destinations. Villas del Mar and Club 96 also offer easy access to Palmilla beach, as well as the Shoppes at Palmilla, which are a popular destination for an afternoon of shopping, dining, entertainment and more. Overall, this is an especially excellent choice for Cabo real estate investors, families with young children, corporate groups, and residents who enjoy world-class golf, which they can access from Villas Del Mar with a minimal amount of travel.

For investors, Villas del Mar is not always recommended because it has a higher than average carrying cost. Between the Club 96 amenities and many of the regular home maintenance costs, Palmilla runs a higher-than-normal expense rate. Some of our real estate clients enjoy the finer things in life and for them, Villas del Mar is a great option as rental income can more than cover the costs when they are not using their vacation homes for their personal enjoyment.

CABO DEL SOL

Cabo del Sol is a bustling community situated along the stunning Sea of Cortez, with gorgeous views and great beach access. The golf and resort destination of Cabo del Sol occupies a full two-miles of the region’s world-famous stunning Golden Corridor.

In fact, the master-planned community actually houses multiple championship golf courses, a pair of them to be exact, those being the Ocean Course and the Desert Course. The Ocean Course is easily the more aptly-named of the two, given that all of the golf in Cabo del Sol features some of the best fairways with picturesque ocean views. If that’s not enough, golfers love to spend time at Cabo del Sol before and after their rounds, enjoying one of the only full-amenity clubhouses in the Cabo San Lucas area.

The variety of real estate options at Cabo del Sol is also impressive because it consists of a diverse set of neighborhoods. These neighborhoods range from the always-popular oceanfront properties to residences located right along the fairways of the golf courses in this development. Starting with the Beachfront community of La Riviera, the community also hosts Brisas, Palmaritos, Las Colinas, Puerta del Sol and many more.

Similar to other communities on our San Jose del Cabo Real Estate list, golf is at the top of the list of amenities for PLC's 2000-acre community. Other defining characteristic of Puerto Los Cabos within the Cabo real estate market is the ease of building a home from the ground up. In fact, this area provides some of the last estate-size beachfront parcels, just waiting for development. Puerto Los Cabos and Fundadores beachfront real estate are elevated ridge-level properties with staggering views of the region’s breath-taking natural environment. Beyond the safety of the elevation, these lots already have utilities and are primed for building.

Puerto Los Cabos also features 27 holes of championship golf, with three courses in one convenient location. To be specific, there is one Greg Norman signature golf course to go along with two Jack Nicklaus signature courses, essentially making this a golf-lovers paradise. The Golf, however, is not all that the area has to offer. This community is also a nature lover’s dream, featuring the Wirikuta Botanical Garden and Sculpture Garden, where visitors and guests can take in local nature and famous Mexican art.
