10 Amazing Cabo Adults-Only All-Inclusive Resorts

Looking for the best Cabo adults-only all-inclusive resorts in Mexico?

There are a lot of options.

Best Cabo San Lucas adults-only all-inclusive resorts

Cabo San Lucas is the town at the tip of the Baja California Peninsula. Staying in this area means easy access to famous Medano Beach, the area’s main swimming beach.

Plus, you’re in Cabo, so you need to take boat tours to see things like the famous Arch, and they all leave from this area. 

1) Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Golf & Spa Resort

If you’re looking for romance with a side of relaxation, the Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Golf & Spa Resort is a great spot.

We’re not the only ones who feel this way. Travel + Leisure named it one of the world’s most romantic all-inclusive resorts.

It was one of the first adults-only all-inclusive resorts in Cabo we stayed in – and it convinced us that all-inclusive doesn’t mean long buffet lines and watered-down drinks.

The Pueblo Bonito Pacifica is casually elegant. But it’s not stuffy, so you’ll be just as comfortable in your sundress and flip-flops as a little black dress and kitten heels.

The 201-room retreat is nestled on a private beach on the Pacific side (not swimmable). But if you want to go to Medano Beach to swim in the ocean (on the Sea of Cortez side), there’s a free shuttle.

To elevate your experience, there are 47 rooms in the Towers, a resort within the resort. These ultra-luxurious rooms take it up a notch with 24-hour butler service and exclusive access to an oceanfront VIP lounge.

It’s not like the rest of the rooms are something to sneeze at though. They’re also stunning, with onyx details and native woods throughout the neutral palette.

There are numerous restaurant options for unlimited dining plus a spa worth writing home about.

2) Breathless Cabo San Lucas

Breathless is the antithesis of Pueblo Bonita Pacifica (see #1).

It’s not that it isn’t romantic. But Breathless Cabo San Lucas is more about being social and meeting people than having quiet nights alone under the stars.

It’s a high-energy spot with DJ pool parties and a happening beach club.

If that’s not enough, plenty of fun activities are scheduled throughout the day. How about a tequila tasting? Mixology class? Or a burlesque show?

Plus, the location is tops – just a 5-minute walk to Cabo San Lucas town.

3) Hotel Riu Palace Baja California

This massive 600-room all-inclusive is set directly on Medano Beach, a bustling stretch of beach near the heart of Cabo San Lucas town.

With 24-hour room service, loads of daily entertainment and a couple of large pools, it’s easy to kick back and unwind. Or join the party scene.

And there are more restaurant options than you’ll likely have nights.

All rooms have private balconies or terraces to sip your all-inclusive top-shelf drinks and watch for whales (in season).

To elevate your experience, book one of the Elite Club suites. They give you exclusive access to a special pool deck area with Bali beds, a private lounge bar and a VIP specialty restaurant.

Best adults-only Los cabos all-inclusive resorts along the Tourist Corridor

Between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, the Tourist Corridor has some of the best all-inclusive resorts in Los Cabos.

Note that you can’t safely swim in the sea at most resorts along the Corridor.

4) Grand Velas Los Cabos

When a hotel has a $25,000 taco on the menu, you’ve got to know the wow factor is, shall we say, over-the-top-wow.

We’ve spent a lot of time in high-end hotels in Los Cabos, but the Grand Velas Los Cabos shocked us. In the best way possible.

With a staff-to-guest ratio of 3 to 1, it’s our favorite 5-star all-inclusive Cabo resort.

After gladly accepting the three-minute mini massage, the gold-chocolate-dipped strawberries and the cut glass bottle of Grand Velas Tequila, we were hooked.

Raise one eyeball from your book at the adults-only pool, and your pool butler will come to see what you need. If it’s not already on the way… We swear the staff reads minds.

While here, you must try their world-class spa. It’s 35,000 square feet of pure indulgence.

But at Grand Velas, relaxation is just the beginning.

5) Marquis Los Cabos

The Marquis Los Cabos is an exclusive sanctuary where it’s all about paying attention to the little things.

The hotel is modern and sensual, and the angel sculptures and flower mandalas are as eye-catching as the glittering Sea of Cortez.

Wandering around the property, we were awed by the vistas, inside and out. The art. The furnishings. The architecture. Flawless.

All 234 spacious suites and rooms reflect a contemporary Mexican décor and come with an ocean-view balcony and L’Occitane bath products. Terra cotta details add to the room’s warmth.

Splurge for one of the casitas with a private plunge pool overlooking the sea. They’re ideal for stargazing and skinny dipping under the cover of stars.

Restaurants? Dine on mouth-watering cuisine from Mexican to sushi at five restaurants and a deli-café.

This all-inclusive adults-only resort isn’t on the most swimmable beach, but the three beachfront pools make up for it.

6) Paradisus Los Cabos

Don’t just book any room at Paradisus Los Cabos. Select “The Reserve” upgrade and take your vacation to the next level.

You’ll get an upgraded oversized suite with an aromatherapy menu and turndown service. You can even choose one of the resort’s rooms with direct swim-up pool access.

You’ll also have access to exclusive adult-only amenities, restaurants and experiences – things like a private concierge, heated pool and secluded areas in the resort.

Additionally, you’ll receive a special water ritual at the spa and a private tour to a canyon for a yoga class surrounded by nature.

Head to the YHI Spa for an opulent couple’s hydrotherapy spa treatment or spend the day luxuriating at the sweeping free-form pool surrounded by palms.

Get a sea view room to watch the waves roll in while sipping your favorite tequila, rose, bubbly – or whatever your heart desires. It’s all-inclusive, remember?

There are five bars. Not just any bars, but the kind tended to by mixologists. Want some crazy rosemary bourbon concoction? Ok. It’s yours. Just want a margarita? Easy.

After you imbibe, choose one of the eight onsite restaurants to satisfy your taste buds.

And to top it off, the award-winning spa and daily activities will keep you as active as you want. (Pssst! Don’t miss the free hydrotherapy “water journey” in the spa – you can do it every day if you want!)

8) Dreams Los Cabos

Dreams Los Cabos is one of the more popular all-inclusive resorts in Cabo for adults. It is laid-back elegance without breaking the bank. And it’s small-dog friendly, so you and your pup can vacation together.

It’s not only for adults. But if you go when families aren’t vacationing with school-age kids, you’ll find it mostly adult-oriented.

All 308 upscale suites have lovely balconies and stocked minibars. The sand-colored marble and dark wood furniture give the room a traditional atmosphere.

The quiet adult-only pool has Manatees Bar, a swim-up bar with a mixologist waiting to create something just for you. The other pool has a daily DJ, so it has more of a festive atmosphere.

There are seven restaurants and four top-shelf bars included in the all-inclusive package.

Best San Jose del Cabo all-inclusive resorts for adults

Head northeast along the Tourist Corridor to the adorable town of San Jose del Cabo. It has some of the best places to stay in Cabo for adults who want to escape Cabo San Lucas’ crowds.

Sit near a floating fire pit, listen to live music and sip exotic cocktails before heading to dinner in one of the seven onsite restaurants – one for every day of the week.

The rooms are modern and clean, with rain showers and furnished balconies. Some overlook the ocean.

Many destination weddings are held at Secrets Resorts. Therefore, expect a lively vibe. 

If you prefer something quieter, step up your game by booking a suite in the Preferred Club, with its top-tier all-inclusive package. It will give you access to a private and more intimate infinity pool, upgraded minibar, more deluxe toiletries and afternoon hors d’oeuvres.

All suites have traditional Mexican décor with modern amenities like Nespresso machines and jetted hot tubs.

If you want to be active, there are two 9-hole golf courses, a well-equipped gym, cooking classes, tequila tastings and outdoor movie nights.
