Luxury Resorts: Cabo San Lucas is quickly rising to the #1 position on everyone’s list of beach locations to visit in North America, and the area is home to some of the most luxurious resort locations you can find. Among them is the extraordinary One&Only Palmilla.

Over the past several years, the resort has undergone over $120 million in renovations on rebuilding and expanding the already immense property. The Palmilla rests on a 250-acre portion of a 900-acre community, planned to include the resort, a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus signature golf course, and eight residential communities lining the shoreline.

From the sheer size of the resort and its counterparts, it’s clear that Palmilla has worked hard to offer you all the avenues to enjoy a quick escape, a luxurious vacation, or an extended stay. Whether you are looking for an ideal way to relax or the location of your next summer-long retreat, One & Only Palmilla has all the bases covered. Each of their accommodations are spacious and luxurious, including 61 oceanfront guestrooms, 78 junior suites, 16 pool casitas, 17 one-bedroom suites and the exclusive, 4-bedroom Villa Cortez. There is truly no better way to escape in the summer than to an extravagant suite with outstanding views of the beautiful Sea of Cortez or a Casita with your own private infinity pool.

But while you aren’t pampering yourself in your comfortable room or enjoying the sunshine, indulging in Palmilla’s extraordinary cuisine is a must. The resort offers three dining choices, amongst them a restaurant with the unparalleled, Michelin-starred chef, Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Market, a uniquely designed dining concept for the One&Only Palmilla, combines Vongerichten’s signature style with traditional Mexican ingredients. The décor is both relaxing and chic with furnishings that foster a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Along with Market is Breeze, an outdoor terrace café overseen by Vongerichten, offering a light menu with everything from fresh ceviches to refreshing salads. The resort’s third restaurant, Agua, is set on the bluff offering incredible panoramic views of the water and surrounding landscape. The decidedly Mediterranean ambiance plays off the “Mexiterranean” cuisine and offers guests private moon shaped “Aqua Dining Pods”, an experience unique to Agua. If you are looking for the best place to enjoy privacy, exclusive accommodations and unparalleled exotic location, the One&Only Palmilla has created a retreat ideal for couples, families and friends alike. After one visit here, it’s likely this resort will become one of your frequent summer spots.
