Pacific Rose

If you're eager to make the most of Cabo's famous beaches and water sports, this beautiful resort offers the best of both worlds – you can make use of all its excellent, hotel-style amenities but keep hold of your independence. A spacious and self-contained apartment with impressive terraces and a mix of traditional and modern decor, it's in a spectacular spot no more than a three-minute walk from the beach.

Cream travertine floors and high ceilings give a feeling of grandeur inside, matched by the view across the gardens and pool to the beautiful ocean. Step out onto your balcony, mix a cool drink at the wet bar and just soak it all up.

If you're feeling active, you can work out at the building's gym or book yourself some water sports, or else swim and sunbathe your days away – perhaps fitting in a trip to the building's spa. And if you're not feeling like cooking in your home's well-equipped kitchen, then just head down to the bar and restaurant.
