Resort or Airbnb? The Surprising Choice of Los Cabos Tourists!

text by our Real Estate Expert Leysan Firdinat

When it comes to vacation accommodations, Los Cabos stands out as Mexico's top destination for rental properties.

According to the Baja California Sur Undersecretary of Civil Protection, approximately 600,000 tourists annually, about 50,000 each month, are choosing vacation rental properties for their vacation getaway.

The Undersecretary estimates that there are between 8,000 and 9,000 vacation rental properties in Baja California Sur, which includes Los Cabos. This region has become one of the primary destinations for vacation rental platforms like AirBnb or Vrbo.

The average cost per night for a standard hotel room in Cabo is around $560 for a couple, and prices rise with additional family members. Unlike other popular destinations like Cancun or Puerto Vallarta, where hotels often have over a thousand rooms, Los Cabos' hotels tend to be more private, often with fewer than 200 rooms. This highlights the growing trend and preference for more personalized vacation experiences.

Investing in an ocean-view property with excellent amenities in Los Cabos can provide a significant return on investment. The region's popularity and limited hotel capacity create a strong demand for vacation rentals.
