3-star hotels in Cabo San Lucas
A shortlist of the 3-star hotels in Cabo San Lucas, drawn from addresses along the Lázaro Cárdenas corridor, the marina and the town centre. It is for travellers who want a straightforward base and still be close to the beach and the nightlife.
Staying in Cabo San Lucas
Cabo San Lucas sits at the southern tip of the Baja peninsula, where the Sea of Cortés meets the Pacific. It is a town built around sport fishing, boat trips and a lively marina, with beaches within reach of the centre and a desert landscape just outside it. Visitors come for the water, the marine life and the easy mix of town life and shoreline.
The hotels on this list are spread along the main road into town and around the marina and centre. Several carry addresses on Boulevard Lázaro Cárdenas or the Transpeninsular highway, others sit on Boulevard Marina or the streets of the centre, and one is in Colonia El Medano near the beach. That spread suits couples on a short break, families who want pools and family rooms, and business travellers who need a desk, internet access and a fitness centre.
