Beach Bliss with Babies: Cabo San Lucas Resorts That Actually Work for Families
By GoldenHourExplorers
Cabo is known for luxury, romance, and dramatic desert-meets-ocean views — but did you know it’s also an incredible destination for families with babies and toddlers?
After exploring Cabo with my own kids, I can confidently say: you can absolutely enjoy a stylish, relaxing beach vacation with babies — without sacrificing sleep, shade, or sanity. You just need the right resort.
Here’s why Cabo works so well, and my favorite resorts that actually deliver for families with little ones.
Why Cabo Is a Dream for Families with Littles
Quick flights from the West Coast (2–3 hours from California!)
Beautiful, swimmable beaches and dramatic scenery
Warm, dry climate — with less humidity than the Caribbean
Exceptional food and service
High-end resorts that truly cater to families (even infants!)
What to Look for in a Baby-Friendly Cabo Resort
When booking in Cabo, I always advise parents to look for:
Suites with separate sleeping areas or 1-bed villas
On-site or in-room nanny services
Baby gear available on request (cribs, high chairs, bottle warmers)
Restaurants with kid-friendly options & flexible dining times
Shade on the beach and by the pool
Calm or swimmable beach areas nearby
Convenient access to town or on-site shops
