Breaking Ground: 1 Hotel Coming to El Médano Beach — Cabo’s Next Luxury Landmark

Breaking Ground: 1 Hotel Coming to El Médano Beach — Cabo’s Next Luxury Landmark

A new era of barefoot luxury has begun in Cabo San Lucas. 🌿

Construction is officially underway on the 1 Hotel Cabo, the newest jewel in the 1Hotels portfolio — rising right on El Médano Beach, next to the ultra-exclusive 1Homes Cabo community. With its prime location on Cabo’s most sought-after swimmable beachfront, this project is set to redefine the future of sustainable hospitality in Baja.


🌊 A Beachfront Vision Comes to Life

Known globally for its eco-conscious design and holistic approach to wellness, 1 Hotels is making its mark on Cabo with a project that perfectly merges sustainability, sophistication, and seaside living.

The new 1 Hotel will feature:

  • Approximately 115 ocean-view hotel rooms, all designed with natural materials and indoor-outdoor flow

  • 50 luxury branded residences offering the same serene, nature-inspired aesthetic as 1Homes

  • World-class amenities, including a rooftop pool deck, oceanfront spa, and farm-to-table dining experiences

  • Direct access to El Médano Beach, one of Cabo’s few swimmable stretches of coastline

It’s the first time the 1 Hotels brand brings its nature-meets-design philosophy to the tip of the Baja Peninsula — and Cabo couldn’t be a more perfect fit.


🏗️ The Construction Phase — A Milestone Moment

After years of anticipation, the hotel construction phase has officially begun in 2025, marking a major milestone for the development.

The site, adjacent to 1Homes Cabo (formerly 1 Homes Preview), has already seen infrastructure progress and early foundation work, signaling the next chapter in creating a unified beachfront experience. Once complete, the hotel and residences will function as one seamless ecosystem — offering homeowners and guests access to shared amenities, five-star service, and a lifestyle that feels effortless yet exclusive.

As the cranes rise, excitement is building — not just among locals and investors, but also within the global luxury community.


☀️ Cabo’s Hottest Location Gets Hotter

Nestled between the Cabo Marina and Hacienda Beach Club, this new addition further cements El Médano Beach as the epicenter of luxury living in Cabo San Lucas.

Homeowners at 1Homes Cabo already enjoy walking access to beach clubs, restaurants, and nightlife. The addition of a full-service 1 Hotel next door will elevate this area even further — introducing:

  • New fine-dining and wellness concepts

  • An eco-chic beach club experience

  • Opportunities for luxury real estate appreciation

Simply put, owning or staying at 1Homes Cabo will soon come with the full 1 Hotel experience just steps away — turning Cabo’s most iconic beach into its most desirable address.


🌿 Designed for Tomorrow

Every detail of the new 1 Hotel Cabo follows the brand’s guiding principle: “Luxury should feel natural.”

Expect locally sourced materials, reclaimed wood, native landscaping, and energy-efficient systems — all blending into the Baja desert-meets-ocean aesthetic. The result? A property that doesn’t just overlook the environment, but honors it.

This project continues Cabo’s evolution into a hub for sustainable luxury, attracting travelers and homeowners who value conscious design without compromise.


🏡 What It Means for Real Estate in Cabo

For investors, the construction of 1 Hotel Cabo represents more than just a beautiful new skyline — it’s a signal of Cabo’s continued rise as a global luxury destination.

Real estate within walking distance of branded residences or five-star resorts typically sees a premium in long-term value, especially when tied to a powerhouse name like 1 Hotels.

If you’re considering property ownership in Los Cabos, the 1Homes and El Médano Beach corridor offers rare proximity to the beach, Marina, downtown Cabo, and world-class amenities — an unbeatable combination in today’s market.


⚡ Final Thoughts

As construction begins, the buzz around 1 Hotel Cabo is undeniable. It’s more than a hotel — it’s a statement of where Cabo San Lucas is heading: toward sustainable, design-driven, and globally recognized luxury.

When the doors open, it won’t just be a place to stay — it will be a place to belong.
