Tucked into the emerald folds of Ánimas Bajas, just outside San José del Cabo, lies a hidden world where the desert hums, palms shimmer, and the spirit of Baja beats in rhythm with the earth. This is Acre Resort Los Cabos — a 25-acre sanctuary where barefoot sophistication meets organic indulgence.
Here, the day begins beneath a canopy of palms and ends under a sky freckled with stars. Between them, guests discover a new dimension of luxury, one that feels alive, sensual, and deeply human.
Where Nature and Design Fall in Love
At Acre, architecture doesn’t fight the landscape — it flirts with it. Sleek Treehouses rise gently into the jungle canopy, their wood and glass walls dissolving into the surrounding greenery. Elegant Villas and Haciendas balance modern lines with rustic soul, each offering private plunge pools, rooftop terraces, and sweeping views of swaying palms.
Every corner tells a story of craft and connection. Local artisans, raw materials, and the rhythm of the land infuse Acre’s design with a warmth that feels timeless, not trendy. The result is a setting that transcends hospitality — it’s a living work of art, curated by nature itself.
The Garden That Grows the Experience
Acre’s beating heart is its organic farm, where rows of herbs, vegetables, and fruit trees stretch toward the horizon. This bounty fuels the resort’s acclaimed Acre Restaurant & Cocktail Bar, a Michelin Green Star recipient celebrated among Mexico’s finest.
Dinner here unfolds beneath lantern-lit palms, with soft music drifting through the night air. The menu is a love letter to Baja seasonal, soulful, and endlessly creative. Every dish from roasted local vegetables to just-caught seafood tells the story of the soil it came from. Cocktails are equally poetic, infused with fruit, herbs, and Acre’s own La Tierra de Acre mezcal, distilled steps away.
The result is a dining experience that nourishes more than appetite, it feeds the senses, the spirit, and the soul.
Rūstico Debuts with Fire and Flair
This November, Acre opens its next chapter with Rūstico, an immersive new restaurant and gathering space set within the resort’s circular garden. Here, fire becomes the centerpiece — both literal and symbolic as chefs craft prix-fixe menus inspired by the land’s bounty and the artistry of open-flame cooking.
The debut will feature three exclusive winemaker dinners with celebrated Mexican vineyards: Monte Xanic (Nov. 5), Bodega Los Cedros (Nov. 10), and La Lomita (Nov. 17). Each evening promises intimate storytelling through flavor, a meeting of Mexico’s culinary future and its agrarian roots.
With its rustic textures, organic cocktails, and communal energy, Rūstico is set to become Acre’s heart after dark, a place where every bite feels like a celebration of life itself.
The Art of Living Well
Beyond the table, Acre celebrates a way of life that is both grounded and inspiring. At the Acre Academy, guests can awaken their creativity through pottery, jewelry making, painting, and sculpture workshops all guided by local artists.
For those drawn to culinary expression, cooking and mixology classes invite participants to explore Baja’s flavors, from agave to ocean. And for those simply seeking stillness, daily yoga sessions in the mango orchard and sound meditations in the garden offer a deeper connection to the body and the land.
Yet, perhaps the most charming residents of Acre aren’t human at all. Donkeys, peacocks, goats, and playful dogs many rescued through the Acre Dogs program wander freely through the palm groves. Their gentle presence transforms the property into something rare in luxury travel, a place that feels joyful, alive, and kind.
Wellness Rooted in the Earth
Acre’s Jungle Pool feels like an emerald dream. Encircled by thick foliage and tropical blooms, it’s a haven of shade and serenity, a perfect counterpoint to Cabo’s fiery sun.
Nearby, the Treehouse Spa carries the resort’s organic philosophy into every detail. Treatments like the Acre Nopal Detox harness the healing properties of the native cactus, while the Acre Scrub blends seasonal botanicals from the farm. These are not spa rituals as performance, they're rituals of the land, designed to renew and realign.
The air hums with birdsong, the scent of citrus drifts through the breeze, and time itself seems to pause, reminding guests that wellness begins with wonder.
A New Spirit of Cabo
In a destination long synonymous with glamour, Acre Resort Los Cabos redefines what luxury can mean. It trades marble for mango trees, chandeliers for starlight, and excess for essence.
Here, the extraordinary hides in the everyday a glass of mezcal savored under the moon, the laughter of friends echoing through the garden, the soft footfall of a rescued dog on a stone path.
Acre is not an escape from the world; it’s an invitation to live more beautifully within it. And in that, it offers something truly rare, a luxury that feels alive.
