LOS CABOS RECOGNIZED BY THE MICHELIN GUIDE AS A TOP GASTRONOMIC DESTINATION
November 1, 2024
Los Cabos has become a renowned gastronomic destination, thanks to its diverse and innovative culinary offerings, most of which bring together local tradition with international influences, with a heavy emphasis on fresh seafood and local ingredients. Because of this booming gastronomic scene, the Michelin Guide has recognized Los Cabos as one of the world’s premier culinary destinations.
Rodrigo Esponda, director of FITURCA, the Los Cabos Tourism Trust, said, “there are 18 restaurants in the region that appear in the Michelin Guide, with 3 of them meriting a Michelin star, as well as two organic farms serving farm-to-table food. There is a great diversity of restaurants cementing Los Cabos as Mexico’s premier gastronomic destination.”
This recognition highlights the importance of supporting and fostering gastronomic tourism in the state of Baja California Sur. While the recognition is already a great honor, it brings with it the responsibility for the tourism sector to keep working hard to promote Los Cabos as one of Mexico’s culinary capitals, as the restaurant sector is one of the largest sources of new jobs for the state.

Hyatt is entering the final months of 2026 with a growing collection of luxury properties across some of Mexico’s most sought-after destinations. From the Pacific coast of Baja California Sur to the Caribbean shoreline of the Riviera Maya and the cultural heart of Mexico City, the company is expanding its portfolio with distinctive properties designed around their individual settings and guest experiences. The Park Hyatt brand is at the center of this growth. Following the opening of Park Hyatt Cabo del Sol in December 2025, Park Hyatt Riviera Maya is expected to open by the end of 2026 as the brand’s first all-inclusive property worldwide. Park Hyatt Mexico City Polanco, a 155-room hotel overlooking Chapultepec Park, is expected to welcome guests in spring 2027. Together, the three properties offer very different ways to experience Mexico, from coastal escapes to an urban cultural stay. Hyatt’s expansion also includes Alila Mayakoba, which opened earlier this year within the Mayakoba complex. Set across 60 acres of beach, lagoon, and jungle, the resort combines wellness, locally inspired design, and a strong connection to the Yucatán Peninsula. Meanwhile, three new Grand Hyatt resorts—Grand Hyatt Grand Cayman, Grand Hyatt Cancun, and Grand Hyatt Los Cabos—are scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2026, with Cancún and Los Cabos introducing all-inclusive experiences to the Grand Hyatt portfolio. For planners, this growing portfolio creates even more possibilities for designing programs around different sides of Mexico. Whether a group is looking for a sophisticated urban experience, a secluded Caribbean setting, or the landscapes and culture of Baja, Destination Mexico can help bring these new properties together with the authentic experiences, local connections, and seamless logistics that make a program truly memorable
