A villa, the beach and the sea for every generation. A private, tailored journey of 6-8 days in Los Cabos, Mexico, designed end to end by a Forest Travel advisor — with Virtuoso privileges at the finest luxury hotels, from US$10,000 per traveler.

Few countries pair such depth of culture, cuisine and landscape with the ease and privacy that luxury travelers expect.

When to go

From November to May is the best window for Los Cabos. Your advisor times it to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.

The experiences

A sense of what this journey can hold — each one arranged privately and shaped to you:

  • A spacious private villa with room for every generation and a chef the children adore.
  • A gentle catamaran day on calm water, with snorkeling for the young and shade for the elders.
  • A guided desert outing to spot wildlife and learn the land from a private naturalist.
  • An afternoon of beginner surf or paddleboard lessons on a protected stretch of sand.

A sense of the rhythm

The days flex to fit everyone. Early risers take the beach, the young sleep in, and the whole family gathers for long unhurried lunches on the terrace. Afternoons split between the pool and the sea, and evenings draw everyone back to one table.

How to do it well

The counsel our advisors give travelers planning this journey:

  • Choose the calm Sea of Cortez side for confident swimming with younger children.
  • A villa chef who cooks around nap times and picky eaters changes the whole trip.
  • Keep one activity a day and leave the rest to the pool; children set the pace here.
  • Ask us to arrange a dedicated nanny so the adults get an evening of their own.

What only your advisor can open

The difference between a good trip and an unrepeatable one is access — and access is a relationship, not a booking. Every guide, room and moment is chosen and sequenced for you.

Who it's for

Travelers who value privacy, time and doing it once — beautifully — and who would rather have one trusted advisor orchestrate every detail than assemble it themselves.

Estimated investment

From US$10,000 per traveler, based on double occupancy — scaled to your dates, party size and level of privacy. A starting point, not a final quote; confirmed once your advisor tailors the itinerary.

Designed entirely around you

Nothing here is a package. A Forest Travel advisor shapes the whole journey and stays one message away before and throughout your trip.

Common Questions

Questions, answered.

A private villa keeps the family under one roof with a shared kitchen, pool and staff, which suits multi-generational groups who want to be together. Connecting suites at one of the finest luxury hotels give the grandparents their own quiet and easy access to a kids' club. We match the choice to your family's rhythm.

Our advisors suggest the calm Sea of Cortez side, where younger children can swim with confidence. It suits the journey's gentle pace: a catamaran day on calm water, with snorkeling for the young and shade for the elders, and an afternoon of beginner surf or paddleboard lessons on a protected stretch of sand. Everything is arranged privately and shaped to your family.

Yes. A spacious private villa offers room for every generation and a chef the children adore. Ideally, it is one who cooks around nap times and picky eaters, which changes the whole trip. You can also ask us to arrange a dedicated nanny, so the adults get an evening of their own while the family stays under one roof, with a shared kitchen, pool and staff.

Both days are gentle and private. The catamaran day keeps to calm water, with snorkeling for the young and shade for the elders. On the guided desert outing, a private naturalist helps everyone spot wildlife and learn the land. Our advisors suggest one activity a day, with the rest left to the pool, because children set the pace here.

Plan on 6-8 days. The days flex to fit everyone. Early risers take the beach, the young sleep in, and the whole family gathers for long, unhurried lunches on the terrace. Afternoons split between the pool and the sea, and evenings draw everyone back to one table. Keep to one activity a day, such as the catamaran on calm water, the desert outing with a private naturalist or a beginner surf or paddleboard lesson. Leave the rest to the pool, because the children set the pace.

As a private, tailored journey it starts from roughly US$10,000 per traveler (double occupancy) and scales with your dates, party and level of privacy — a starting point, never a fixed package price. Your advisor confirms the figure once the itinerary is tailored.

November through April is the time to go. It brings dry, sun-warmed days and cool evenings, ideal for early beach mornings, a catamaran day on calm water, the guided desert outing and long open-air lunches on the terrace. Your advisor times the journey to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.

Yes. Family in Baja can include an afternoon of beginner surf or paddleboard lessons on a protected stretch of sand, arranged privately and shaped to your family. Our advisors suggest making it the day's one activity and leaving the rest of the day to the pool, because children set the pace on this Los Cabos journey.

On Family in Baja, the days flex to fit everyone. Early risers take the beach while the young sleep in, then the whole family gathers for long, unhurried lunches on the terrace. Afternoons split between the pool and the sea, and evenings draw everyone back to one table. A private villa keeps everyone under one roof, while connecting suites give the grandparents their own quiet.

Start with the calm Sea of Cortez side: beaches such as Chileno, Santa María and Palmilla are swimmable most days, unlike the Pacific face with its surf and undertow. Beyond the beach, Family in Baja adds a gentle catamaran day with snorkeling, a desert outing with a private naturalist and beginner surf or paddleboard lessons on a protected stretch of sand. Between mid-December and mid-April, a morning on a private boat to see the whales is a highlight for children.
