On the southernmost tip of Baja California Sur, facing the deep blue Pacific Ocean, is Los Cabos, Mexico. Why be anywhere else when you could be sipping on a tropical drink with the sun shining down, your feet ankle-deep in the Pacific Ocean? Luckily, there is an abundance of communities in Cabo that have everything you could want in a vacation or retirement home.
Cabo is one of the most recognizable vacation spots in the world, and the real thing lives up to the images in your head and then some. On the east coast of Cabo are two luxury locations full of available real estate — Palmilla Cabo and Querencia Cabo real estate are available now. The beach flanks both on one side and golf courses on the other. They’re beautiful communities near dining and shopping, and both great places to spend your vacation or retirement. Don’t waste any time buying another home with sandy beaches, golf courses, and perfect weather!
Querencia
Just a few miles from beautiful Costa Azul Beach is Querencia, a private beach and golf club. If you want to spend your vacations golfing, this is the location for you! Querencia Golf Club is massive; their 18-hole, 72-par course is over 300 acres, and the driving range has over 400 yards of driveable space. Tee-times are 12 minutes apart, ensuring that your round of golf is as relaxed as it is challenging. Take your time during your game, and enjoy the gorgeous views — the perfectly green course has mountains on one side and the ocean just beyond the rough.
This gated community offers every amenity that one could want. Leisure activities are abundant, like tennis, pickleball, and fitness classes, so your vacation days could be packed with as much fun and excitement as you want. There’s also a kid’s club offering summer camps and other activities to keep kids active and entertained — and gives the adults a well-deserved break.
You can still find your sense of adventure in Querencia as well. You’ll have unlimited access to hiking and bike trails, along with opportunities for diving and boating. Take a ride on a 50-foot catamaran that is only available to members. Try and spot some of the sea wildlife unique to this area. There are also nearby surfing spots like “Old Man’s” and “The Rock.” Surfing conditions are ideal from May to October, so don’t delay in buying your Querencia Cabo real estate.
Palmilla
The town of Palmilla is beachside and offers all the shopping and amenities that one could want. There is also the Palmilla Golf Club, which is a stunning course in its own right, recognized as "Grand Dame of Los Cabos Golf." Golf the 27 holes among the cacti and admire the contrast of the ocean blue against the lush green of the golf course. Playa Palmilla is one of the longest beaches around, but it is still a little-known attraction due to the residential area between the highway and the beach.
Palmilla Cabo homes for sale have everything nearby. The Shoppes at Palmilla offers convenient shopping options with boutiques and dining; you can golf, shop, eat at restaurants, go to the pool, and go to the beach all in the same day because of the proximity of all of these amenities. If you’re not interested in living in a gated community like Querencia, but would prefer a more communal living situation where you feel like you’re part of the Cabo community, then Palmilla Cabo homes for sale are for you.
Nearby attractions
The peninsula has abundant natural beauty; excellent views of mountains, the ocean, tropical plants, and beaches awe and inspire many.

Take this rare opportunity to dive with whale sharks, the largest fish in the world. Don’t worry, they may be sharks, but they’re not dangerous. Further west, you can explore the Sierra de la Laguna, a majestic mountain range full of scenic hiking. You’ll rarely find so much adventure near a beach town, but that’s the case in Cabo.
