About Cabo San Lucas

Cabo San Lucas is the vibrant southern tip of the Baja peninsula, where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific at the iconic El Arco. Built around a superyacht marina and the swimmable El Médano beach, it is the nightlife, sportfishing and resort-energy core of Los Cabos and the engine of its vacation-rental market. For investors, Cabo San Lucas is the dollarised short-term-rental play: El Médano and marina-adjacent condos fetch MXN 60,000-110,000/m² (about triple inland Baja) and the long high season with steady US fly-in demand pushes gross short-term yields to 8-10%. The case is resort-income scale and brand recognition; the trade-offs are restricted-zone friction (fideicomiso, ~5-7% transaction costs), some standard-condo oversupply risk and seasonality. Coastal, fideicomiso required. USD-denominated.
