Four Seasons Cabo San Lucas at Cabo del Sol: Preferred Partner guide

Four Seasons Cabo San Lucas at Cabo del Sol opened in 2024 on the coast road between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo. It is a small resort for the brand, with 96 rooms, casitas and suites, all facing the ocean, built in a modern hacienda style around three pools and a sandy cove. Booked through a Preferred Partner advisor, a stay adds daily breakfast for two, a $100 hotel credit, upgrade priority and VIP recognition, at the same rate Four Seasons publishes.

The Perks

Four Seasons Preferred Partner benefits at Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

The program benefits are the same at every hotel. What changes is what they are worth. This is how each one works at this property.

01

Breakfast for two at Palmerio

Full breakfast for two per bedroom at Palmerio, or through in-room dining on your terrace. Individual breakfast dishes cost $24 to $32 here, so for two people over a week the saving is substantial.

02

$100 hotel credit, $200 in suites

One credit per stay. Prices at the resort are high, so think of it as one main course and a cocktail at dinner, or about a third of a massage. It will not cover dinner for two.

03

Upgrade priority

A one-category upgrade when available at check-in. From the entry La Casona Room, the next step is a casita, which is larger and stands on its own at ground level.

04

Early check-in and late checkout

Priority for both. Flights from the US tend to land around midday and leave in the early afternoon, so both help.

05

VIP recognition

A welcome amenity and a VIP note on the reservation. We tell the resort whether you want to be near the family pool or well away from it.

06

Combines with Four Seasons offers

Preferred Partner benefits apply on top of the resort's own promotions. We check what is available for your dates when we quote.

Advisor Picks

Best rooms to book at Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

There are no bad views here: every room faces the ocean and has a balcony or terrace. The real choice is between a room in the main hacienda building, La Casona, and a freestanding casita in the grounds, with or without a private plunge pool. Suites and villas sit at the edges of the resort for privacy.

Best value

Ocean-View La Casona Room

The entry category, on the upper level of the main building, at a generous 847 sq ft with a king bed or two queens. It is the closest room to the lobby, bar and restaurants, and the easiest for anyone who wants to avoid stairs and slopes.

Couples

Ocean-View Casita

A freestanding casita of roughly 1,170 sq ft, with indoor and outdoor showers and more privacy than the main building. A clear step up in feel for a modest step up in rate.

The one to book if you can

Ocean-View Casita with Plunge Pool

About 1,765 sq ft including an outdoor living area with a ceiling fan, a private plunge pool with loungers and an outdoor shower. You can spend the whole day here without going to the main pools.

The closest to the water

Oceanfront Casita

The same casita layouts in the front row, nearest the cove. Worth it for the sound of the sea and for whale watching from the terrace in winter.

Families

Casita Suites and La Casona Suite

One-bedroom suites of roughly 1,800 to 2,000 sq ft with a separate living room. For families, ask us for a casita near the Coraluz family pool.

Groups

Residences and Villas

Two- to seven-bedroom residences, villas and estates joined the rental collection in 2026, from about 4,200 sq ft, most with private pools and some with rooftop pools. They suit two or three families travelling together.

Where your casita sits matters more than its category. Families are happiest near the family pool and beach club. Couples usually prefer the side nearer the adults-only pool. Tell us which and we will request it.

Before You Go

Advisor tips for Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

01

Be realistic about the beach

The resort describes its beach as swimmable, which is unusual in Los Cabos. It is a small sandy cove with rocks at either side, and one detailed review recommends it for strong swimmers only. Plan to swim in the pools and treat any calm sea days as a bonus.

02

Know how it differs from Costa Palmas

Four Seasons has two resorts in Los Cabos. This one is on the main corridor, close to the airport, the towns and restaurants. Costa Palmas is over an hour away on the East Cape, more secluded, with calmer swimming water. Choose this one for convenience and dining, Costa Palmas for seclusion and the sea.

03

Budget for tax, service and meals

Taxes and service charges in Los Cabos can add close to 30 percent to the room rate. Food and drink are priced at US resort levels, with dinner mains around $40 to $45 and cocktails over $20. We give you the full room total with your quote.

04

Go in whale season if you can

From mid-December to mid-April, humpback whales pass close to shore and can be seen from the resort. January and February are the peak. The resort runs its own whale-watching boat.

05

Book golf and dinner ahead

Guests play the Cabo del Sol Course, a short cart ride away. Reserve tee times and dinner at Cayao before you arrive in high season.

06

Mention any mobility needs

The resort is built on a slope with steps between levels. If stairs are a concern, we will request a room in La Casona, where the accessible rooms are, or a casita close to the main building.

07

Plan one or two evenings out

Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo are each about 20 minutes and around $20 away by taxi. San José's Thursday art walk and a dinner at Flora Farms are the two outings guests enjoy most.

08

Travelling with children

The kids club is complimentary for ages 4 to 12 and runs from 9 am to 5 pm. The family pool has a shallow walk-in entry, and children are given fruit, smoothies and ice lollies through the day. There is an activity centre for teenagers.

Where the Credit Goes

Dining at Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

For a resort of under 100 rooms, there is a lot of choice. Between the restaurants, the rooftop bar and the pools, you can eat somewhere different each night of a short stay.

Mediterranean, breakfast and dinner

Palmerio

The main restaurant, in La Casona, with cooking from the French and Italian Riviera. Breakfast is served here.

Japanese-Peruvian, dinner

Cayao

An oceanfront Nikkei restaurant from chef Richard Sandoval, open for dinner. The most sought-after table at the resort.

Baja beach club

Coraluz

Mexican seafood, ceviche and tostadas beside the family pool and the beach. The natural choice for lunch.

Cocktails and small plates

Sora Rooftop Bar

A rooftop bar relaunched in late 2025, with Mexican small plates, a margarita list and music on most evenings.

Tequila, mezcal and poolside drinks

La Casona Lobby Bar and Bar Brisal

The lobby bar specialises in tequila and mezcal. Bar Brisal serves ceviche and cocktails at the adults-only pool.

On Property

Beach, pools and facilities at Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

Most guests spend their days at the pools, with the beach, the spa and the golf course close by.

01

The beach

A sandy cove framed by rocks, with loungers and service. Swimming depends on the day's conditions and is best left to confident swimmers.

02

Family pool

A large pool beside Coraluz with a shallow walk-in entry, a fountain area for small children and family cabanas.

03

Adults-only pool

An infinity pool with loungers set in the water, cabanas and its own bar. Cabanas at both pools can be reserved for a fee.

04

Tierra Mar Spa

Ten treatment rooms, including two for couples, with vitality pools, steam and sauna, and a lap pool beside the gym.

05

Golf

The Cabo del Sol Course, designed by Tom Weiskopf and renovated in 2023, is a short cart ride away and open to resort guests.

06

Children and teenagers

A complimentary kids club for ages 4 to 12, an adventure centre for teens and an artisan studio with craft classes.

Timing

When to visit Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

Los Cabos is sunny for most of the year. Winter is the favourite, and late summer is the period to avoid.

December to April
High season: warm, dry days, cool evenings and whales offshore. The most expensive months, with Christmas, New Year and spring break the busiest.
May and June
The shoulder season. Hotter, quieter and better value, with the sea warming up.
July to October
The lowest rates, with temperatures from the high 80s to 100°F. This is hurricane season, and September and early October carry the most risk.
November
A good month: the heat has eased, the storms have passed and winter prices have not yet arrived.

Beyond the Hotel

Things to do near Four Seasons Cabo del Sol

Whale watching

From mid-December to mid-April. Go out on the resort's own boat or a small-group tour from the marina.
