Legendary Mexican Retreat in Los Cabos, Baja California

Perched upon the dramatic coastline of the Sea of Cortez, One&Only Palmilla is the ultimate private resort in Baja California, immersed in Mexican charm, surrounded by blue and perfect waves!

Where the teeming waters meet the enchanting desert and sun-kissed mountains, you will find thrilling adventure or blissful relaxation. Let your personal butler take care of the arrangements and surrender to the elements, savouring the authentic flavours of Mexico in every detail.

The Resort

One&Only Palmilla is located among the stunning natural geography of the Baja Peninsula facing the Sea of Cortez. Set alongside one of the few swimmable beaches in the region, the resort offers the most stunning views of the extraordinary natural landscape and coastline of Los Cabos.

Sink into the eternal rhythm of breaking waves and light sea breezes, the Sea of Cortez is your constant, mesmerising vista. Lounge on your terrace and take a dip in your own Jacuzzi or pool then retreat into the rich comfort of your hacienda-style space.

Waves at One&Only Palmilla

The Baja California coastline is world-renown for exceptional surf spots! With warm clear waters, diverse breaks, year-round surfing and friendly dolphins and whales frolicking just offshore, thereโ€™s no better place to go on a trip!

Summer (May-Oct) is consistent with long-distance, clean S-SW swell and deep tropical storms spinning off the Mexican coast providing great waves in the Sea of Cortez. In winter, major NW swells hit the west coast.

Whether you are a first-time surfer willing to challenge yourself in this sport or an experienced surfer looking to score epic waves, the professional surf team on-site will take you to the perfect location based on your requirements and needs!

My wife and I booked an 8 day surf charter on the Gahaa with a dedicated surf guide Moussa who was worth his weight in gold knowing what breaks would be firing and his knowledge of marine life and Maldivian environment enlightening for my wife and I. From the initial booking and contact Guilia at AWAVE made the whole process seamless communication was excellent. I have traveled extensively and surfed many parts of the world this trip truly exceeded my expectations the crew were incredible taking us to excellent surf and snorkeling locations. The boat itself is a converted fishing Dohni that exudes old world charm is clean and meticulously cared for. The meals prepared for us were nothing short of exceptional excellent variety and plenty of it a mix of western and Maldivian fare. We are definitely coming back and certainly using AWAVE again! Thank you Giulia and Moussa our trusted surf guide who gave us incredible insights into Maldivian culture.

Absolutely Recommended. Giulia and James are top professionals: I will be using Awave for all my future surf trips. I have been surfing for 30 years and travelled the world so I have dealt with a lot of agents. Awave is in the top spot as far as I am concerned. I spent 10 days with them on a boat trip in Maldivesโ€™ central atolls: not only their recommendations were spot on but being a boutique agency they tailor the surf experience to the very specific needs. They are surfers (real chargers) and know personally each spot and surf operator they recommend (wtether it is a guest house or a resort or a boat).

Trip of a lifetime. First and foremost I'd like to thank James Colston from Awave Travel, for assisting me in every which way to help book one of the most memorable experiences I've had in my life. He was extremely responsive and answered every single question I had, even the dumb ones haha. As for AYADA, holy dooly, that place is paradise! Absolutely breathtaking, I couldn't believe I was actually walking around such a beautiful island! Big love to the staff at Magu Restaurant, seeing as how I ate there pretty much everyday, they were amazing! Very switched on and quick off the mark to help with anything that was needed. A special mention to Dhaboa and the captain who took me out surfing! I cannot speak highly enough about their friendly, helpful and straight up on point expertise. With Dhaboa picking the spots to surf and tips on where to sit to catch the best waves on the day, to the wonderful captain himself, filming and sending me videos of the waves I caught.
Absolute legends! Made my surf trip! Best holiday I've ever been on to this date.

Reliable travel agency to book a surf trip - Both Giulia and James were very reactive and adivsed on the best options. In our case we made a boat trip in Maldives. It is the second time we use Awave Travel to do a surftrip to Maldives and we have had a very good experience in both cases. They are a reliable and trustworthy travel agency, I highly recommend them.
