For 10 years, the JW Marriott Los Cabos Beach Resort & Spa has stood on the coast of Los Cabos, mirroring the vibrant blues of the Sea of Cortez, blending seamlessly with the natural desert terrain it inhabits. A property that amasses 561,000 square feet of leisure and luxury, here is a seaside getaway that offers guests whatever it is that they desire out of their stay: adventure, variety in culinary experience, revitalizing spa treatments, or simply a serene beach for lounging around under the sun.
American architect Jim Olson designed the JW Marriott Los Cabos with its natural surroundings in mind. The structure is sleek and modern yet still manages to be warm and welcoming, clad in natural desert tones with hidden pockets of greenery. In addition to a fitness center and several swimming pools, the hotel features a Greg Norman and Jack Nicklaus-designed 27-hole golf course, complete with an ocean view and six comfort stations.
Jasha Spa is its own mini escape, with an array of treatments that range from body scrubs and massages to facials and mani-pedis. There’s a cold plunge, steamroom, sauna, a saltwater pool, and a lap pool that, with its window out to the ocean, gives its swimmers the illusion that they can swim out directly into the horizon.
JW Marriott Los Cabo’s flavorful cuisine is served throughout several different restaurants: Café des Artistes Los Cabos leans more formal, marrying together French techniques with Mexican palates and paired with a highly curated wine selection; MarHumo is poolside, a bit more casual but still delectable in it’s steak and seafood. Auka Deli is a cute coffee and pastry cafe that offers different snacks or to-go meals, while Kaha Bar is connected to the adults-only infinity pool, featuring a swim-up bar. Úa Culinary Artisans is perhaps the perfect middle, with views of the pools and ocean, this menu ranges in small bites to crowd-pleasing favorites.
There are 299 guest rooms, detailed with marble and wood, some with terraces and ocean views, all with tech-forward amenities and comfortable arrangements that offers guests a sense of home, elevated: think 24-hour room service, plush bath robes, a state-of-the-art mini bar.
Los Cabos is one of the best places in the world to go for total immersion into the natural world. So, while JW Marriott Los Cabos is a destination in itself, its only a drive away from whalewatching, horseback riding, snorkeling and scuba, and other excursions that introduce travelers to the beauty of Baja.
With an ethos dedicated to hospitality, service and experience, the design and intention in the details, and the inconceivable beauty of the Sea of Cortez, this is a property that elevates definitions of luxury travel, and truly stands the test of time.
