Located between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, the Los Cabos Corridor is a 32-kilometer coastal stretch that connects the region’s two main towns while offering a distinctly more private, residential experience.
Running along the Sea of Cortez, luxury villas in the Los Cabos Corridor are known for expansive layouts, elevated ocean views, and a sense of space that’s harder to find in town-based resort areas. The setting feels intentionally removed, yet remains conveniently positioned between the dining, culture, and nightlife of both Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo.
Before large-scale development began in the mid-20th century, this part of the Baja Peninsula attracted only adventurous travelers drawn to the desert landscape and rugged coastline. Today, the Corridor is one of the most sought-after areas within Los Cabos, offering a refined alternative to resort-heavy destinations while still delivering easy access to the best of Mexico.
Renting a luxury villa in the Los Cabos Corridor is easy with Rental Escapes. First, choose your travel dates and party size. From there, your Rental Escapes Concierge is happy to present you with the best options for your group, including luxury villas in Palmilla, Del Mar, Cabo Del Sol, and much more. Your Concierge can then help with any other detail you need for your trip, including airport transfers, car rentals, boat charters, and private chef service.
The Los Cabos Corridor is made up of several distinct communities, each with its own feel. Some are golf-forward, some are more beach-focused, and others prioritize privacy and gated residential living. Here’s how the main areas compare:
With its ideal location between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, the Los Cabos Corridor is home to some of Baja California's best resort communities, as well as some stand-alone villas that offer unmatched privacy.
Villas here tend to focus on maximizing outdoor and indoor living, with design touches that honour Mexican and desert culture while maximizing your enjoyment of the beautiful surroundings.
Plus, all of our villas in the Los Cabos Corridor are independently owned and operated, so you’ll enjoy a distinctive, unique experience every time.
As one of the first planned communities in Los Cabos, Palmilla has been defining Baja luxury for decades. Palmilla villa rentals reflect this heritage, as well as the eclectic and unique tastes of their owners. Here are some great examples:
Villa Gloriosa: Set within the ultra-exclusive Caleta community in Palmilla, Villa Gloriosa sits on the edge of the Sea of Cortez and offers private beach access, exquisite views, and elevated Colonial-style architecture. Inside, the old and the new combine with baroque décor, rich materials, and every modern convenience. Truly one of the most glorious villas in Los Cabos.
Casa Bella Villa: Sitting on the Sea of Cortez, Casa Bella Villa features an open, airy design, and is made to create unforgettable memories for you and your travel group. Lounge by the fountain-fed pool, take in a meal by the loggia, or relax by the fireplace at night – this is the ultimate in Baja desert living.
Casa Koll: Comprising over 15,000 square feet, the beachfront Casa Koll Estate is a combination of three of Palmilla’s best villas, including Casa Koll itself, built by Palmilla’s pioneering developer. Every facet evokes a sense of history and authenticity, with fine details that speak to the history of both Mexico and Europe, including the medieval chateaus that inspired its design.
Originally founded in the 1990s as a private villa community and later expanded into a resort, Del Mar villas stand out thanks to their hacienda-style architecture, spacious outdoor living areas, and their prime location. Some top choices include:
Casa Mar Sereno: Set within the coveted Del Mar community, Casa Mar Sereno blends striking contemporary design with classic Baja elegance. This refined estate offers dramatic Sea of Cortez views from nearly every room, expansive indoor-outdoor living spaces, and a private pool terrace that feels perched above the horizon. Thoughtfully curated interiors, high-end finishes, and seamless access to outdoor lounge zones make it ideal for both sunset gatherings and tranquil mornings overlooking the water.
Villa Serenidad: True to its name, Villa Serenidad delivers panoramic Sea of Cortez vistas and a sense of calm from the moment you arrive. Perched above the water’s edge within Del Mar, this six-bedroom estate showcases open-plan living areas that draw the ocean inside, a generous infinity pool that seems to cascade toward the sea, and multiple patios and fire features that elevate al fresco evenings. With space to accommodate large groups, Villa Serenidad is tailored to guests who want privacy, style, and unforgettable coastal sunsets.
Villa Nàcar: With a foyer that extends directly onto the beach, Villa Nàcar is perfect for guests who want to jump into the sand and sea, then go right back to their private infinity pool before sitting down for lunch, all with as few interruptions as possible. Coupled with its folkloric décor and you have a true celebration of Baja culture and landscapes.
Home to two of the best golf courses in Los Cabos – the Jack Nicklaus-designed Ocean Course and the Tom Wiskopf-designed Desert Course – Cabo del Sol is 1,800 acres of beautiful landscapes, world-class amenities, and beautiful luxury villas, including:
Villa Buena Vida: In Cabo del Sol’s prestigious golf and ocean enclave, Villa Buena Vida boasts ocean views from nearly every room, a cascading outdoor pool with fire pit and palapa lounge, and abundant terraces for dining or sunset cocktails. Indoors, open social spaces and a gourmet kitchen make entertaining effortless, while the seamless flow to outdoor living ensures you’re always connected to the Sea of Cortez breeze and coastal panorama.
Villa Esquina: Nestled on the first green of Cabo del Sol’s championship golf course with sweeping ocean views, Villa Esquina is a spacious, split-level retreat that balances elegant indoor comfort with exceptional outdoor living. The villa’s layout creates natural gathering zones, from a shaded exterior lounge and dining terrace to a private pool and jacuzzi set against golf and sea vistas. With a kitchen designed for group meals and plenty of room to relax, Villa Esquina is a top choice for families or friends seeking both activity and tranquility in one setting.
Casa Corona: With its desert views on one end and expansive sea views on the other, Casa Corona perfectly encapsulates what makes the Los Cabos Corridor so special. Add in authentic furnishings, rich tapestries, and fine stonework throughout, and you have a villa that is a true testament to the beauty of Baja California.
