Bring the whole family to Los Cabos, Mexico for a sun-soaked trip with touches of both luxury and adventure.
Los Cabos is a dream destination for families, with its exceptionally diverse range of activities perfect for visitors of all ages. Settle into one of the region’s many family-friendly resorts before making the most of your memorable getaway. Beach days, boat rides, and culinary excursions are just the start of the adventures that await your family in this Mexican vacation destination.
Where to Stay
Los Cabos is lined with dozens of incredible accommodations for every type of traveler. Grand Velas Los Cabos is one that stands out from the crowd as the region’s newest luxury all-inclusive resort. Swim in multi-tiered infinity pools, picnic on golden sand beaches, and take Mexican cooking classes with the family. Your little ones in particular will have a blast, with the resort’s jam-packed itinerary of arts and crafts, board games and bingo, movie screenings and Xbox games.
Grand Fiesta Americana Los Cabos All Inclusive Golf & Spa is another fantastic Los Cabos accommodation for groups—starting with the rooms and villas, which can fit up to ten people depending on the specific room type. Add to that the beachfront pools, globally inspired restaurants and bars, all-inclusive spa retreat, and oceanfront golf course, and every member of the family will be as happy as can be.

Last but certainly not least, the Hilton Los Cabos Beach & Golf Resort should be on every family’s radar for a Los Cabos vacation. This tropical playground features hacienda-inspired rooms and suites, which make for the perfect home away from home. After all, you’ll be more than ready to curl up for the night after a jam-packed day of beach bliss, spa pampering, tequila and mezcal tastings, and culinary delights.
Where to Eat
Settled on the Baja Peninsula, Los Cabos is surrounded by water, so it’s no surprise the Mexican-style seafood should be at the top of your trip’s food wish list. Try dishes like Baja-style fish tacos, marlin ahumado (smoked marlin), and almejas chocolatas (savory chocolate clams) just to start. Even better, the farm-to-table trend is going strong in this part of Mexico, so many of the ingredients used in these flavorful dishes are freshly sourced from local farmers and vendors.

Pop into the hole-in-the-wall nooks that the locals frequent or make reservations at Michelin-awarded eateries like Cocina de Autor Los Cabos or Acre.
Where to Adventure
A trip to Los Cabos can be anything you and your family want it to be. You can make it a laidback vacation, one filled with beach mornings and spa afternoons. On the flip side, it can be a getaway filled with adventure. Zipline through the Monster Ziplines of La Baja, soaring over the rugged canyon landscape for nearly three miles, or hop aboard a glass-bottom boat to sail to the spectacular Arch or The End of the Earth, a stunning rock formation you won’t want to miss out on.
