How Mexico’s Los Cabos Became a Celebrity Favourite  

Ultimate resort-style luxury awaits at ‘Lands End’: discover Los Cabos, where the well-heeled swap paparazzi for palomas. 

Sun-soaked Baja-style casitas, supermodels and movie stars, and views of the Sea of Cortez sparkling like a diamond mirage – this isn’t the set of the new Bond film, this is Los Cabos. From impossibly fresh seafood to private slices of golden beach and wellness retreats offering ancient Mayan-inspired rituals, it’s no mystery why celebrities flock here, where the resorts rival even the most beautiful Hollywood mansions.  

Located at the very tip of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula, this glittering haven is blissfully tucked away from reality: and what happens in Cabo, stays in Cabo.

Discover the world’s most glamorous stays here within our Ultra Lux collection.

Chileno Bay Resort & Residences, located on a protected cove

With an armour of accolades and a celebrity stamp of approval, there’s no hiding the pinnacle of luxury that Chileno Bay Resort & Residences has achieved. Think immaculate Baja-style architecture on Cabo’s most sought-after beach and a 22-acre wellness retreat complete with a Nap Garden. Rooms are sprinkled around two sapphire infinity pools, each boasting sparkling views of the sea. The onsite restaurant is a celebrity favourite, with the indoor-outdoor COMAL serving a contemporary take on Mexican cuisine with a government-endorsed chef at the helm.  

Esperanza, Auberge Resorts Collection, Mexico’s most glamorous private beach resort 

Esperanza, Auberge Resorts Collection has carved out a piece of Cabo’s shoreline specially for its guests, including a discerning celebrity clientele. Each bohemian casita is so close to the shore that the soundtrack of lapping waves may enter your dreams. Follow the string of palm trees through a labyrinth of five shimmering pools, or glimpse the annual whale migration at Whale Point. Adventure through superfood-laden dishes at La Terraza Americana or sip hand-crafted cocktails on the cliffside Cocina del Mar – Cabo’s most spectacular restaurant.

One&Only Palmilla, a gourmet paradise 

One&Only Palmilla has created the perfect recipe for gourmet perfection. Michelin-starred-restaurant-trained chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten has spearheaded Seared, the acclaimed steakhouse, and Suviche, the Japanese restaurant with fish flown in direct from Japan. Seared offers one of the most extensive wine lists in all of Mexico, so pairing your perfect cut of filet mignon is but a fine art. As the smell of sea salt tempts guests into a fervour for fish, Baja Bites by the Bay obliges with a buttery seafood menu, rife with minty ceviche and tacos.  

 Viceroy Los Cabos, a high-tech wellness retreat  

Whatever your celebrity status, a stay at Viceroy Los Cabos surpasses all expectations. When the candlelit Cielomar Rooftop bar and restaurant dazzles overhead, social butterflies will want for nothing as tequila and wood-fired octopus fuels endless conversation. Meanwhile, all 11,000 square feet of spa is at your disposal, with wellness rituals including the world’s only Harmonyum Healing treatment – a transformative therapy that brings your body back to its ‘zero point.’

Where do supermodels go to escape the cameras? To Montage Los Cabos. Complete with all the luxury trimmings that can be expected from a Montage property, paradise here is whatever you imagine. Enter the five-star Spa Montage and partake in a Mexican Roots Ritual for ancient herb therapies and massage.
