Why is Cabo famous?

Cabo San Lucas, commonly referred to as Cabo, is famous for a variety of reasons and really is a destination that will suit everyone! Boasting pristine white beaches and crystal-clear waters, the location offers a variety of water activities like snorkelling, scuba diving and kayaking. 

The area is also known for its high-end resorts, offering luxurious amenities, stunning ocean views, and top-notch service alongside a vibrant nightlife scene that includes beachfront bars, nightclubs and restaurants.

Where to stay in Cabo San Lucas

Although we’re taking inspiration from The Kardashians location wise – we don’t exactly have the same budget as the business mogul family.

When vacationing in Cabo, the family have often stayed at the stunning Cabo Platinum, Villa La Datcha. At $35,000 a night, you’d expect nothing less than ultimate luxury and the luxury villa offers 10 beds, 12 baths, an infinity pool, a fire pit, 3 chefs, 6 butlers, a masseuse at the ready, private security guards and a PT.

Unfortunately, the property is out of our budget, but there are many more amazing accommodation options in Cabo San Lucas that offer a more realistic luxury experience.
