When planning a trip to Cabo, the resort you choose is very important. You’ll likely be spending a lot of time poolside, as only a handful of resorts have a swimmable beach. Cabo is more spread out than you think, so your choice of a resort will affect how much time and money you spend getting to planned activities, meals, and exploring.

Cabo Neighborhoods

The three main areas are Cabo San Lucas, the Resort Corridor, and San Jose Del Cabo. Cabo San Lucas is a lively spot. If you are looking for nightlife, this is the place you want to be. This is also the hub for many activities on the water. During the months of December through March, you may even be able to spot whales.

A resort with a swimmable beach, pool parties, and nightlife are ME Cabo. A lifestyle resort, where culture meets cool, and sophistication meets hip. A place where the fun never stops on the only swimmable beach in Los Cabos, with spectacular views of the famous Los Arcos.

The resort corridor bridges the two regions of Los Cabos. It is here where you’ll find beautiful resorts along the coast with easy access to everything the region has to offer. Two resorts that are at the top of my list for a stay along the resort corridor, are Grand Velas and Grand Fiesta Americana.

San Jose del Cabo is a place to get away from it all. If you’re looking to relax, enjoy a stress-free trip, or maybe play a few rounds of golf and do International guided golf tours, this is the place for you. If you decide to continue playing golf when you come back from vacation, you may want to invest in Golf Push Carts and other necessary sporting gear. You may also step into style with this premium mens golf shoes collection.

There’s a small-town feel here that is authentic. Enjoy a luxury stay at One & Only Palmilla on the shores of a swimmable beach, or the Hyatt Ziva.

Places to Dine

Enjoy dinner together with your partner in a romantic mexican restaurant. Cabo is known for its sunsets, enjoy a romantic sunset dinner for two at the famous Sunset Mona Lisa restaurant. Other restaurants you can check out for a special romantic evening are Arbol, The Office, and Cocina del Mar.

There are many places to stay, explore, and activities to enjoy your time together in Los Cabos. For more information, resort recommendations, or to start planning your romantic getaway in Los Cabos, reach out to me.

Why Akumal?

Akumal has always been known as one of the top beach destinations in Mexico for vacationers. Akumal is located 62 miles south of Cancun, in between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. Famous for its beautiful beach, beachfront hotel, swimmable lagoon, and home to some of the most romantic resorts located in the Riviera Maya.

What’s so great about Akumal?

I think Akumal is an incredible place to visit for a laid-back, no-compromise style that is perfect for a romantic getaway. It’s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of Cancun and downtown Playa del Carmen. The area is also known for its wide range of ecosystems and biodiversity. It is nick-named ‘Turtle Town’ because it is here in Akumal that you can snorkel with sea turtles. It has it all: crystal clear turquoise water, secluded beaches, fun, sports like biking with a new bike from the monster cycle, and amazing food.

Explore Mayan Ruins

About an hour from Akumal is the ancient town of Coba. You can explore the area’s rich history by visiting the Coba ruins. This ancient Mayan city had enormous power before the age of Chichén Itzá. Here you will learn about the Mayan culture, and climb the tallest pyramid in the Riviera Maya.

Mayan Ruins At Tulum

You can also visit the ruins at Tulum. I highly recommend planning a private sunrise tour of Tulum. Seeing the ruins at sunrise will take your breath away, and you will be transported back in time to walk in the footsteps of the Mayan people.

Travel is about more than just ‘visiting’ a destination; it’s about exploring, learning about history and culture, and creating memories that you will never forget.

There are plenty of accommodation options to choose from in Akumal, from boutique properties to high-end luxury all-inclusive resorts. There is a place to suit every travel style and every occasion. I have my favorites, which one will be yours?
