Capella Pedregal is the best hotel in Cabo San Lucas, not only by local acclamation, but according to annual rankings by hospitality insiders, who consistently rate it as one of the world's most impressive resorts. Situated in the exclusive hillside enclave of Pedregal, guests arrive at Capella through the only privately-owned tunnel in all of Mexico, which opens into an elegant expanse of courtyard that extends to the shores of the Pacific Ocean. The entrance has a sweeping cinematic grandeur that is almost a Capella signature.

The exclusive Capella Brand's flagship beach resort boasts 96 rooms and suites, all of which enjoy ocean views, private terraces, plunge pools, and warming fire pits accessible from the bedroom or bathroom. Other pampering amenities include the 12,000 square foot Auriga Spa, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, and world-class dining courtesy of Don Manuel's and El Farallon.

Don Manuel's features traditional Mexican cuisine and high-end comfort foods, while the market-style El Farallon showcases fresh local seafood and spectacular views of the Pacific from a romantic cliff-side location. There is also an onsite gift boutique, AlmArte, which specializes in handicrafts, and a library that is open 24 hours a day. Best of all, guests are assigned their own personal assistants to help with restaurant reservations and other vacation details.
