A CREATIVE TAKE ON LOCAL BAJA FLAVORS

Los Cabos is a culinary journey waiting to be discovered, and Esperanza is the perfect starting point. Cocina del Mar, the resort’s signature restaurant, offers a feast for the senses, featuring fresh, local seafood and innovative dishes that blend Mexican tradition with avant-garde flair. This is Cabo’s most spectacular place to dine — set on a rocky promontory surrounded by the crashing waves. The salty sea air compliments the exquisite variety of just-caught seafood prepared to let the vibrant natural flavors shine through. The mood is romantic and celebratory and truly an amazing experience.

ADVENTURES FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

Esperanza is a gateway to adventures that bring families closer to nature and each other. The resort's concierge can arrange for private boat tours where families can witness the majestic beauty of humpback whales breaching in crystal-clear waters.

FOR THE CULTURE CONNOISSEUR

Exploration extends beyond the thrill of physical adventures. Cultural excursions to nearby towns offer a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant traditions of the Baja region. Art walks in San José del Cabo, pottery classes, and visits to local markets introduce families to the heart and soul of Mexican culture.
