How to Stay in Los Cabos Hotels on Points

The short answer: Los Cabos is a high-end Pacific Mexico resort market where cash rates climb past $400 and Hyatt runs an all-inclusive that books on points. Reach Hyatt with Chase or Bilt, Hilton with Amex or Bilt, and Marriott with Amex, Chase, or Bilt.

Pacific Mexico, premium rates

Los Cabos has shifted upmarket, with resort cash rates routinely topping $400 a night and luxury properties going far higher, especially over winter and holidays. Like the Caribbean side of Mexico, it rewards points heavily, and it has the bonus of a Hyatt all-inclusive that bundles meals and drinks into a single award night.

The cards and transfer partners to use

Hyatt anchors the value with the all-inclusive Hyatt Ziva and the Park Hyatt Los Cabos, both reached only through Chase Ultimate Rewards or Bilt, so a Chase Sapphire Preferred or the Bilt card is key. Hilton, including the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos, comes via Amex or Bilt, and Marriott resorts via Amex, Chase, or Bilt. See which cards transfer to hotels.

Why the Hyatt all-inclusive wins

A Hyatt Ziva award covers the room plus meals and drinks at a fixed chart price, so you know the points cost up front and can weigh it against a steep all-inclusive cash rate. The World of Hyatt card grows that balance and throws in an annual free night. Check resort space on rooms.aero. See best cities for hotel points.
