Cabo San Lucas — Home for the Holidays

December 14, 2010

If you enjoy visiting Cabo San Lucas for golf, fishing or soaking up the sun, perhaps you’ve dreamed of spending the holidays at the tip of Baja California.  Imagine a season filled with warm traditions, rich celebrations and local color, and you’re already anticipating what it’s like to call Cabo San Lucas “home for the holidays.”

The weather is the first reason for northerners to celebrate.  Temperatures in December and January are in the 70s during the day and the 50s at night.  You’ll need just a sweater to take in “Las Posadas,” candlelit processions that travel from home to home during several evenings before Christmas.

It’s a delight to shop in Cabo for gifts of the season.  Explore the town’s plazas and alleyways and discover handcrafts for friends, silver jewelry for someone special and trinkets just for fun.  For the finest in sophisticated boutiques, travel down the road to the famed Palmilla.  Cabo San Lucas’s neighbor, San Jose del Cabo, is home to this legendary resort community including the upscale Shoppes at Palmilla.

Treat yourself to a stay at one of the exclusive resorts in Cabo San Lucas, or, better yet, give yourself the ultimate gift of luxury–a villa at Punta Ballena, developed by Snell Real Estate. Choose a private, oceanfront residence or a penthouse condominium with a sweeping view of the water.  Tear yourself away to stroll two miles of walking paths, play a round of tennis and visit the “residents only” beach club.

With summer coming to a close, it’s not too early to start planning a holiday vacation in Cabo San Lucas.  This unique destination just might be the place where you find holiday joy like never before.
