Le Blanc Los Cabos

For those who want to indulge in the ultimate in hospitality sans kids, do not miss the adults-only Le Blanc Los Cabos, which is tucked perfectly between Cabo San Lucas and San José Del Cabo. Opened in 2018, Le Blanc Los Cabos marks the second Le Blanc Resort – a AAA Five Diamond-awarded brand – in the world. Each of 374 rooms on property are suites, ranging from 760 to 1,400 square feet, and every single one has an ocean view – many with patios and private terraces – as well as high definition televisions equipped with Apple TV and Netflix.

Le Blanc is an all-inclusive resort, and while this can sometimes mean access to a 24-hour buffet and watered-down cocktails (or worse, lukewarm wine in a plastic glass), at Le Blanc it means unlimited access to more than unique 10 bars and restaurants on property – plus 24-hour in-room dining and top-shelf beer, wine and cocktails. Of particular note on the dining side are Lumiere, serving a 10-course tasting menu; Mezze, serving bold, spicy Lebanese fare; Blanc Asia, serving the best in Japanese, Thai and Chinese cuisine; and Blanc Ocean, serving fresh seafood and Baja cuisine. 

For those serious about pairing good food with equally good drinks, Le Blanc only offers wines that have earned 80 points or more from Wine Spectator and boasts a seemingly endless list of top-shelf spirits including Jack Daniel’s, Johnnie Walker (Red and Black Labels), Grey Goose, Stolichnaya, Bombay Sapphire, Tanqueray and Don Julio.

Beyond simply luxuriating at the infinity pool, which overlooks the ocean and has cabanas, beach loungers and a service staff nearly unmatched in attentiveness, getting out and exploring Cabo is turn-key for guests, as the resort takes care of all logistics. They offer several signature experiences: luxury sunset sails via catamaran; speedboat adventures; snorkeling tours; cultural tours of the more historic areas in the region; shopping tours; and even dolphin encounters and swimming adventures (all available for an additional cost). There are also area experts on-site and available to help design, suggest and plan custom experiences for guests as well.
