There are four unique Villa Group resorts in Cabo San Lucas that all share spacious guest rooms, ocean views, sparkling swimming pools, fun activities and immersive culinary experiences. Each resort provides something different to fulfill a traveler’s needs and vacation desires.

Convenience and Location

The beauty of the Villa Group is that three of the resorts are located next to each other. There is a complimentary Villa Group trolley that transports guests from one resort to another for spa opportunities and dining venues.

These three resorts are located on Medano Beach, one of Cabo San Lucas’ liveliest areas, famous for its gentle waves and warmer waters. Guests can swim or take a dip in the sea, or, for the more adventurous, parasailing, jet skis, and banana boats are within walking distance.

Getting to Cabo San Lucas

Cabo San Lucas is on the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula in Mexico. Fly into San Jose del Cabo International Airport. It’s situated 8 miles from San Jose del Cabo and about 23 miles from Cabo San Lucas.

The airport is operated by Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico (GAP) and serves as a hub for several airlines, including Aeroméxico, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and Southwest Airlines.

Villa La Valencia Beach Resort & Spa is the newest of the all-inclusive Villa Group properties. It was designed as a modern resort experience for travelers seeking mindful travel experiences in Mexico.

The relaxing Azul Wellness Spa Center is the place for couples and groups to gently reset, connect and feel refreshed and renewed while on vacation. Guests can begin with the multifaceted hydrotherapy circuit before or after a soothing massage, a skin-brightening facial, or a body treatment.

One will achieve full-body relaxation while gently releasing tension and mental fatigue through Shirodhara-inspired practices, lymphatic drainage and aromatherapy.

Upscale features at this resort include an oceanfront infinity pool and Cabo’s longest lazy river (over 1,100 ft). This gentle, flowing river is ideal for floating on in inflatable tubes. The river takes guests under waterfalls and past mosaic-tiled native wildlife fountains, cooling them along the floating journey.

Groups can reserve a morning sunrise breakfast on the beach in cabanas and then take a SUP Yoga class in the infinity pool overlooking the Sea of Cortez. Water aerobic classes and pool games are also offered throughout the day.

There is an intentional focus on gourmet dining and contemporary design at the resort’s fine-dining steakhouse and signature Italian restaurant.

This resort is a great option for travelers seeking all-inclusive conveniences with upscale touches and relaxation.
