Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
Pedregal
Vibe
Carved into sheer oceanfront cliffs, the atmosphere stays unhurried and calm, shaped by crashing Pacific surf and attentive, intuitive service.
“Secluded cliffside keep”
Dedicated personal concierges assist every guest alongside private plunge pools and daily afternoon guacamole deliveries.
A saltwater meditation pool anchors treatment suites offering moon-phase rituals, curanderismo healing, and ice caves.
Multiple beachfront infinity pools, tennis courts, and cliffside dining span this self-contained Pacific coastal enclave.
Behind a private mountain tunnel on the Pedregal cliffs, ocean waves below and downtown Cabo separated.
“you must pass through a tunnel blasted through the mountains that abut the beach — an unconventional approach, and the first of many reminders”
Rooms
Every room and villa opens onto an oceanfront terrace with a private plunge pool angled toward migrating humpback whales.
“From the moment you enter the torch-lit private tunnel leading to Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal, it’s clear that this is a special place.”
Wellness
Circular treatment suites hover over a saltwater meditation pool, offering moon-cycle therapies, traditional curanderismo healing, and wet thermal grottos.
“The Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal is a majestic resort that sits at the spot where the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortéz meet.”
Backstory
Engineers blasted the nine-hundred-foot Dos Mares Tunnel directly through a granite mountain in 2009 to carve out this hidden refuge.
Eat & drink
Cliffside tables at El Farallon serve the day's catch above churning waves, while the Agave Study pours rare regional mezcals.
The neighborhood
Tucked behind the private mountain tunnel on the Pedregal cliffs, the marina and downtown Cabo San Lucas remain minutes away.

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.
