This Luxury Resort Has Jaw-Dropping 360-Degree Views Of Los Cabos

Visitors to Los Cabos, Mexico have no shortage of options when it comes to choosing a hotel. But the spectacular panoramic views from Vista Encantada Spa Resort & Residences set it apart from the rest. Perched on secluded cliffs overlooking the Cabo San Lucas Bay, the 36-suite luxury resort boasts 360-degree views of the Pacific and postcard-perfect rock formations of iconic Land’s End.

Vista Encantada offers stellar spots for taking in Baja California Sur’s natural beauty at every turn, from the private guest suite terraces to most of the resort’s restaurants and pools. Some of the swimming and dining spaces sit steps from a rocky stretch of beach with dead-on views of Land’s End. Others, like the rooftop sky pool, sit high atop the cliffs, with jaw-dropping views where you can catch both sunrise and sunset.

A short hike to the top of the cliffs rewards guests with a charming lighthouse and sweet white chapel that’s a popular wedding venue. It’s the perfect perch for looking out at the water to catch sailboats gliding by and whales breaching or sending up water spouts when the majestic marine mammals are in residence.

Combine the epic views with spacious and elegant guest suites, impeccable service, a top-notch spa, and loads of restaurant options ranging from fine dining to taco and tequila bars, and it’s easy to understand why so many travelers choose to call the award-winning Vista Encantada their home away from home on the Baja Peninsula.
