Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas

Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos is a luxurious retreat on the desert peninsula of Baja California Sur on Mexico's Pacific Coast. The hotel sits on the Eastern Cape which overlooks the calmer Sea of Cortez which is often referred to as Nature's Aquarium due to its rich and varied marine life, from sea lions to whale sharks, whales, dolphins and blue footed boobies. This privileged location includes a huge expanse of beach out front and one of few which you can safely swim from, or partake in a number of non-motorized watersports from. The property is a perfect base for exploring the peninsula's spectacular landscapes, whether exploring on land or on the water, and it works well as part of a longer Mexico itinerary or even at the end of a California road-trip.

The décor is minimalist and fresh, with floor to ceiling sliding glass doors separating rooms from the beach beyond and allowing in plenty of natural light. All rooms have ocean views to some degree and have indoor and outdoor space to enjoy. Facilities include three restaurants, a spa and four swimming pools, as well as a teen center and kids activities available daily. The Costa Palmas complex also provides access to a marina, an 18-hole golf course and a sports center with fitness equipment, volleyball, basketball and tennis courts.
