Solaz, a Luxury Collection Resort, Los Cabos
Los Cabos, Mexico
Tourist Corridor
Vibe
Concrete terraces cascade down to the Sea of Cortez, lined with native cacti and low-slung stone pavilions.
“Terraced desert haven”
Cascading concrete and quarry stone terraces step down to the sea, framed by endemic desert plantings and sculpture.
A dedicated thalassotherapy seawater circuit, cryotherapy chamber, Himalayan salt room, cold plunge pools, and restorative Baja rituals.
Five heated pools including butterfly-granite Olympic infinity options, kids programming, and multiple beachfront dining venues.
On a 34-acre desert beachfront estate along the Tourist Corridor, between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose.
“The 145 rooms and suites are the epitome of coastal chic, showcasing sea views while sporting eye-catching Mexican huanacaxtle wood details.”
Rooms
Suites blend pale stone floors with Mexican huanacaxtle wood, opening through floor-to-ceiling glass onto ocean-facing terraces with private hammocks.
“The 145-room beachfront property draws its inspiration from the incredible desert landscape and indigenous culture of the Baja California Peninsula.”
Wellness
Ojo de Liebre features the region's only thalassotherapy seawater circuit, alongside a Himalayan salt room, cryotherapy, and Olympic-length infinity pools.
“More than anything, Solaz is built into the land itself, embedded in the desert and coastline, so it feels like part of the landscape.”
Backstory
The resort houses El Gabinete del Barco, an indigenous gallery displaying historical maps and a suspended forty-three-foot whale skeleton.
“But Solaz really is something different, and visitors sense that as soon as they arrive in the open air lobby…”
Eat & drink
Mako grills fresh catches over wood fires, while Mako Beach pairs Baja bites with live DJ sessions on the sand.
The neighborhood
Set along the Tourist Corridor, the estate sits secluded between the historic art walks of San Jose and vibrant Cabo San Lucas.

The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
