Los Cabos—often called “Tucson with an ocean”—boasts a dry, sunny climate tempered by cooling ocean breezes. And that makes all the difference, especially in summer. Readily accessible from Arizona’s major gateways is the resort community of Quivira Los Cabos, which occupies the exact place where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, making it even cooler.
The all-inclusive Pueblo Bonito Resorts, located within Quivira Los Cabos, offer a variety of ways to beat the heat this summer. Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Golf & Spa Resort, an adults-only property, has an expansive pool with a generous-size swim-up bar a stone’s throw from a broad expanse of pristine beach. Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach Golf & Spa Resort, a family-friendly property terraced down the face of a coastal bluff, has nearly a dozen swimming pools, from kiddie splash pools to the spectacular Sky Pool, which crowns a summit high above the sea and offers stellar views of Cabo’s technicolor sunsets.
Guests of Pueblo Bonito Resorts have exclusive access to Quivira Golf Club, an epic Jack Nicklaus-designed course chiseled into a mesmerizing seascape. The course, ranked among Golf Digest’s World’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses, is marked by sheer granite cliffs, huge windswept dunes and rolling desert foothills. A strategic tour de force stretching to 7,085 yards, Quivira offers more oceanfront exposure than any other course in Los Cabos, combining breathtaking vistas with unforgettable challenges.
Jacques Cousteau famously described Los Cabos as the “aquarium of the world” when he visited the region in the 1960’s. Not much has changed. There’s ample opportunity for snorkeling and scuba diving near the iconic sea arch at Land’s End. Paddle-boarding and kayaking are popular. So are catamarans, sail boats and jet skis. And for those who like to shop, Puerto Paraiso Mall in Cabo San Lucas, 15 minutes from Quivira Los Cabos, offers air-conditioned comfort—and an array of luxury retailers.
For those who’d rather wait until fall before visiting Cabo, Pueblo Bonito Pacifica will serve as the host site for the Life Luxe Jazz concert series to be held Nov. 1 to Nov. 4. Cool jazz in a cool place? That’s an unbeatable combo.
