Market Pulse: The Sophisticated Shift Toward Oceanfront Living in Los Cabos

Los Cabos is no longer a vacation secret. It has become a defining destination for global elites seeking permanence in a place that offers more than just scenery. Over the last decade, this desert-meets-sea landscape has quietly evolved into a sanctuary for discerning investors and lifestyle connoisseurs. The shift is not seasonal, nor speculative—it’s structural. High-net-worth individuals are planting roots, not simply checking in.

From the beaches of Palmilla to the windswept bluffs of Diamante, the high-end real estate market in Los Cabos has transformed into a curated selection of ultra-private enclaves designed for longevity, exclusivity, and elegance. Properties here are no longer seen solely as holiday escapes—they’re viewed as legacies in the making.

Intelligence from the Field: Current Market Dynamics

As we move into 2025, the luxury segment in Los Cabos continues to experience elevated demand across all top-tier communities. A significant portion of recent transactions are off-market, brokered discreetly within exclusive networks. Price points continue to appreciate due to limited inventory and scarcity of buildable coastal land.

Buyers from the U.S., Canada, and Mexico dominate the market, with notable growth in inquiries from Europe and Asia—particularly from Singaporean investors seeking lifestyle assets with long-term value. These buyers are drawn by the rare intersection of privacy, architectural distinction, and curated living.

Sanctuaries of the Select: Where the World’s Most Discerning Buyers Reside

El Dorado Golf & Beach Club

El Dorado isn’t a development—it’s a private society. Developed by Discovery Land Company, this community blends total discretion with indulgent living. Residents enjoy a Tom Fazio-designed golf course, a members-only beach club, and curated dining experiences. The presence of the adjacent El Dorado Resort ensures a seamless blend of hospitality and privacy.

“What drew us to El Dorado wasn’t just the home—it was the invisible luxury of total discretion,” shares a U.S.-based client with a primary residence in New York.

Palmilla Los Cabos

Timeless and steeped in tradition, Palmilla is anchored by the world-renowned One&Only Palmilla Resort. This master-planned community features oceanfront estates, lush fairways of the 27-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, and direct access to swimmable beaches. A destination of enduring grace, Palmilla appeals to legacy-minded homeowners.

Maravilla Los Cabos

Positioned on Santa Maria Bay, Maravilla embraces contemporary architecture with a lifestyle built around wellness and adventure. Residents enjoy the private Maravilla Club, Twin Dolphin Golf Club, and immediate access to Montage Los Cabos. For those who value both design and depth of experience, this community delivers on all fronts.

Cove Club

A rising name among Cabo’s elite enclaves, Cove Club lies within Cabo del Sol and is quickly becoming the preferred address for privacy-focused buyers. With a private clubhouse, forthcoming beach club and spa, and adjacency to Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Cabo del Sol, the community offers serenity without isolation.

Diamante Cabo San Lucas

Spanning dramatic Pacific bluffs, Diamante delivers scale and vibrancy for buyers seeking a full-spectrum lifestyle. From two championship golf courses to branded residences like Nobu Hotel and Hard Rock, this community is designed for those who thrive in both energy and elegance.

St. Regis Residences, Los Cabos

Tucked within the private Quivira enclave, the St. Regis Residences offer a refined beachfront experience paired with the legendary service of the St. Regis brand. Residents enjoy 24/7 butler service, private wellness programs, and seamless access to the resort’s high-touch lifestyle.

“It’s a home, yes—but also a vessel for the lifestyle we envisioned,” says a global investor who splits time between Cabo and London.

These six enclaves represent only a glimpse into the rarefied real estate landscape of Los Cabos. From minimalist hillside estates to grand beachfront compounds, the options for elegant coastal living here are both diverse and exceptional.
