The freshly renovated and relaunched Tropicana Los Cabos will open its doors this August 2024 in San Jose del Cabo. Nestled in the heart of this charming arts district, Tropicana Los Cabos, a Mexican hacienda-inspired boutique hotel, is just steps away from art galleries, swimmable beaches, biking routes and the San Jose del Cabo Harbor. The 70-room property is also conveniently located within 20 minutes of Los Cabos International Airport (SJD) with direct flights from major cities across the U.S. and Mexico.
Originally built in 1956 as Tropicana Inn, the hotel and restaurant were once operated by a well-known local family and served as a landmark social connection point for Josefinos and visitors alike. Today, the new Tropicana Los Cabos seeks to retain that same spirit of hospitality and community while providing contemporary amenities and serving as a meeting place for both locals and modern travelers seeking relaxation, authentic cultural connection, and a wide spectrum of outdoor adventure.
“We are so pleased to introduce our new version of the classic Tropicana experience,” said Tropicana Los Cabos general manager Manuel Sillas. “Tropicana Los Cabos sits in the very heart of San Jose del Cabo and upon opening will offer guests a home base for exploring this vibrant, walkable destination. With so many options for grand hotels and beach resorts in Los Cabos at large, we are proud to offer something different – intimacy and community, along with exemplary hospitality.”
The reimagined property will feature 68 guest rooms and two suites, the Tropicana Pool Bar and two distinct dining options. The revamped Tropicana, Cocina de las Californias will serve a “farm-to-table” menu that pays homage to the land, locals and pioneers of the Californias, while the Baja Mediterranean-inspired El Patio will offer traditional dishes and recipes that reflect San Jose del Cabo’s Hispanic heritage.
Additionally, Tropicana Los Cabos will feature a wellness center offering a full menu of services including Tibetan bowl singing, guided meditation, massage services, and classes on the outdoor yoga terrace, along with a game room including a pool table and boardgames, an outdoor hot tub and heated pool, and complimentary bicycles to ride around town. Other unique guest services will include bespoke excursions and activities, such as downtown e-bike and walking tours, eco-adventure tours including boating and whale watching, Latin dance classes, and hands-on culinary workshops that will teach guests how to make ceviche, tortillas, guacamole, salsa, and craft cocktails with distilled spirits.
To accommodate events and meetings the hotel will offer a total of 8,353 square feet of versatile indoor and outdoor meeting space. Tropicana Los Cabos will be the only hotel in the downtown area with event space for up to 130 people, ensuring it will be the preferred venue for intimate weddings, corporate retreats, business receptions, and special events.
