With a little insight into the best places to stay, eat, and explore, you’ll ensure every moment is filled with joy and romance—stress-free.
Choosing the Perfect Resort for Romance
A honeymoon calls for a resort that offers both comfort and privacy. Many resorts in Cabo cater specifically to couples, offering oceanfront suites, private pools, and world-class spas.
For an all-inclusive experience, Le Blanc Spa Resort Los Cabos offers top-tier service, ocean views, and gourmet dining. Couples who want a more boutique-style resort may enjoy The Cape, A Thompson Hotel, which blends modern luxury with stunning views of El Arco. For a quiet, adults-only retreat, Pueblo Bonito Pacifica offers a peaceful atmosphere away from the bustling downtown area.
Some resorts offer honeymoon packages that include spa treatments, romantic dinners, and exclusive beachside cabanas. Checking for special honeymoon deals can add extra value to the trip.
The Best Time to Visit for a Honeymoon
Los Cabos has pleasant weather most of the year, but some seasons offer better conditions for a honeymoon.
From November to May, the temperatures stay warm without being too hot. This is the best time for outdoor activities, private sunset cruises, and romantic beach walks. The peak travel months fall between December and April, which means higher hotel rates and ideal weather.
June through September brings warmer temperatures and occasional rain. This is the low season, making it easier to find resort deals. Couples looking for a quieter honeymoon may appreciate fewer crowds and lower prices during this time.
Romantic Dining Spots for Unforgettable Dinners
Cabo San Lucas has some of the most scenic dining experiences, with options ranging from beachfront restaurants to elegant rooftop settings.
Sunset Monalisa is a top choice for honeymooners. The cliffside location overlooks the ocean, and as the sun sets, the view is breathtaking. Couples looking for a private dining experience can request a table on the terrace.
For a more intimate setting, El Farallón offers a romantic atmosphere with fresh seafood and stunning views of the Pacific. Located within The Resort at Pedregal, this restaurant is known for its cliffside setting and impeccable service.
Those who want a casual but romantic experience may enjoy Edith’s, a charming spot with candlelit tables and authentic Baja cuisine. The warm ambiance and soft lighting create the perfect setting for a honeymoon dinner.
Relaxing Spa Experiences for Couples
Few things are more relaxing than a couple’s spa day. Many resorts in Cabo offer luxurious spa treatments, including oceanfront massages and hydrotherapy pools.
The Spa at Esperanza provides couples with a private beachfront cabana to enjoy a massage with the sound of the waves in the background. Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal Spa offers a signature massage that uses local ingredients for a unique experience.
For a different type of relaxation, some spas offer temazcal ceremonies, an ancient Mexican steam bath tradition designed to promote wellness and relaxation.
Private Sunset Cruises for Romance on the Water
A sunset cruise is one of Cabo’s most romantic activities for honeymooners. Sailing past the famous Arch of Cabo San Lucas while the sky turns shades of orange and pink creates a magical experience.
Many companies offer private yacht rentals with dinner, champagne, and live music. Cabo Sailing Ocean Adventures is known for its luxury sailboats and top-tier service, making it an excellent option for honeymooners looking to spend an intimate evening on the water.
Some catamaran cruises for couples who prefer a group setting include open bars, live music, and dancing under the stars. These cruises are a fun way to mix relaxation with a lively atmosphere.
Exploring Cabo’s Most Scenic Beaches
Cabo San Lucas has many beautiful beaches, but some are better suited for romance and relaxation.
Lover’s Beach is a must-visit for honeymooners. Accessible only by boat, this secluded beach offers stunning rock formations and clear turquoise waters. Couples can bring a picnic and spend a quiet afternoon soaking up the sun.
For a more peaceful setting, Santa Maria Beach is ideal for snorkeling tours and relaxing in a calm bay. The soft golden sand and crystal-clear waters make it one of the best beaches for a romantic day by the sea.
Chileno Bay is another great option. Its shallow waters are perfect for swimming and snorkeling, and the surrounding coral reef attracts colorful marine life, making it a great spot for couples who love the ocean.
Day Trips for Adventure and Exploration
While relaxation is a key part of any honeymoon, a bit of adventure adds excitement to the trip. Cabo has plenty of opportunities for couples who want to mix in some exploration.
A day trip to Cabo Pulmo National Park offers incredible snorkeling and diving experiences. This protected marine reserve is home to a thriving coral reef, sea turtles, and schools of tropical fish.
For a unique experience, couples can visit Todos Santos, a charming town about an hour from Cabo San Lucas. Known for its art galleries, boutique shops, and local cafes, it’s a perfect place for a quiet day away from the resorts.
Horseback riding along the beach is another romantic way to spend time together. Several ranches in Cabo offer guided horseback tours that take couples through desert landscapes before reaching the shoreline.
Planning for the Best Experience
A honeymoon should be stress-free, so planning ahead helps couples enjoy their time in Cabo. Booking hotels, dinner reservations, and excursions in advance makes it easier to secure the best experiences.
Packing for Cabo is simple, but it’s important to bring lightweight clothing, comfortable sandals, and plenty of sunscreen. Evening temperatures can be cooler, so a light sweater or jacket may be useful for nights out.
Transportation is another factor to consider. Taxis in Cabo can be expensive, so renting a car or using pre-arranged shuttle services can make getting around more convenient. Many resorts offer private transportation in Cabo, making it easy to travel between locations.
