The Place at Cabo: A New Era for Cabo San Lucas Marina

Redefining the Heart of Cabo San Lucas

For more than two decades, one of Cabo San Lucas’ most iconic waterfront sites sat abandoned — a silent reminder of unrealized potential. Now, that’s changing.
The Place at Cabo, a visionary project by Grupo Questro, is transforming the city’s marina district into a vibrant mixed-use hub that blends luxury, culture, and community.

This ambitious development represents the next chapter in Cabo’s evolution: a destination where visitors can shop, dine, stay, and move freely between land and sea — all while enjoying breathtaking views of the bay.

What The Place at Cabo Will Offer

Designed as a comprehensive lifestyle destination, The Place at Cabo will feature:

  • A boutique hotel with around 150 rooms, offering premium hospitality right on the marina.

  • Luxury retail and dining areas with international brands, cafés, gourmet restaurants, and ocean-view terraces.

  • Art and culture spaces, including murals, public art, and interactive museum exhibits highlighting Baja’s heritage.

  • Open public areas with shaded walkways, rest zones, gardens, and eco-friendly lighting that invites both locals and visitors to explore.

  • Entertainment and leisure options, including live performances, outdoor markets, and cultural events.

The Cabo Tram: Free Rides Through Paradise

One of the most unique and exciting elements of The Place at Cabo is the Cabo Tram, a free tourist train designed to offer visitors easy and scenic transportation throughout the marina and downtown area.

This eco-friendly tram will operate daily, connecting key points of interest such as:

  • The Cabo San Lucas Marina

  • The Place at Cabo shopping and dining areas

  • Nearby resorts and cultural zones

The goal is to make Cabo more walkable and accessible, reducing traffic congestion and giving visitors a charming, leisurely way to experience the destination.

The Sea Connection: Cabo to San José del Cabo by Boat

Complementing the tram will be the new tourist boat route — a maritime link connecting Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo.

This scenic cruise will circle the bay, allowing guests to admire:

  • The world-famous Arch of Cabo San Lucas

  • Coastal cliffs, beaches, and marine life

  • Sunset views across the Sea of Cortez

Planned to operate daily, this connection will turn The Place at Cabo into a transportation and tourism hub, uniting both ends of Los Cabos through a seamless land-and-sea experience.

A New Landmark for Cabo

The Place at Cabo is more than an urban project — it’s a symbol of Cabo’s modernization and sustainability vision.

Key benefits include:

  • Urban renewal: Transforming an abandoned lot into a high-value, accessible public space.

  • Economic growth: New jobs in hospitality, retail, and services.

  • Cultural activation: Spaces for art, music, and community gatherings.

  • Tourism diversification: Expanding Cabo’s appeal beyond beach resorts and nightlife.

  • Sustainable mobility: Free tram and electric infrastructure reduce environmental impact.

Project Progress

According to local reports, The Place at Cabo is currently under active construction, with Phase 1 already launched — including the first shops, restaurants, and open public areas.
The hotel phase and tram-boat system are scheduled for rollout in upcoming stages through 2025–2026, as the area becomes a new focal point of Cabo San Lucas’ marina.

Why It Matters

The Place at Cabo perfectly captures what Los Cabos represents today — heritage meeting innovation. It’s a development that respects its surroundings while setting a new standard for urban design, tourism, and mobility in one of Mexico’s most important coastal cities.

From sipping coffee with a marina view to hopping on a tram or sailing across the bay, this project promises a seamless, immersive Cabo experience — built for residents, travelers, and dreamers alike.
