    Pedregal: Where to Stay, Eat & Explore

    An exclusive hillside enclave with dramatic ocean views, private villas, and serene luxury.

    Overview

    Pedregal is the crown jewel of Cabo San Lucas real estate. This gated community sits on the dramatic hillside above the Pacific, accessed by a private tunnel carved through the mountain. Inside, you'll find multi-million dollar villas, the legendary Waldorf Astoria, and views that will take your breath away.

    The vibe here is exclusive and tranquil—a stark contrast to the party atmosphere of Medano Beach just a few miles away. Days are spent lounging at infinity pools perched above the crashing waves, dining at world-class restaurants, or simply watching the sunset paint the sky from your private terrace.

    Pedregal isn't for budget travelers, but if you're celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, or simply want to experience Cabo's most refined side, this is the place. The beach below (Playa Pedregal) is dramatic but not swimmable due to waves—it's more about the views and the vibe.
