Costa Palmas


Costa Palmas is Baja’s East Cape: Sea of Cortés light, desert-and-sea adjacency, and a quieter register than Cabo corridor density. Our house here is Amanvari: casa living, spa recovery after beach-club hours, and a pace that treats stillness as the point rather than a day trip from the corridor.

We hold casas early around peak season when East Cape inventory thins, and we pair naturally with Amanera or Aman New York when Americas weeks should hold more than one register.

On Mexico’s Pacific coast in Jalisco, Costalegre is the wilder counterpart, where Las Alamandas keeps more than two thousand acres of private reserve and four beaches of its own.

For the wider journey through Mexico, with the seasons, the routes between stays and every house we keep there, see our Mexico country guide.

Why visit

A reason to make the journey.


  • Sea of Cortez, not Pacific strip energy East Cape water and desert light replace corridor nightlife as the default. The week can still visit Cabo when wanted. It does not have to live there.
  • Pavilion privacy with beach-club pulse Amanvari’s house style: private water and terrace living, with shared sand and dining when the household wants company.
  • Boat days when the gulf agrees Fishing and coastal hours are arranged against real conditions. The Sea of Cortez follows the forecast, and we plan water days around it.

When and how

Light, season, and the arrival


Each season keeps its own calendar. We plan the transfer around it.

Best time to visit

When the light is right

November through April is the classic comfort window: cooler nights, kinder midday heat, and the gulf at its most inviting for beach and boat days. May and early summer warm quickly; July through October bring heat and hurricane season. Holiday peaks from Thanksgiving through New Year and spring breaks fill first.

Seasonality

When to go

Winter holidays and peak dry months fill first. Extreme summer midday heat edits outdoor programming. Storm season is planned for, never glossed. Operating calendars are confirmed with Amanvari before multi-generational dates are set.

Airport / logistics

Arriving without hurry

Most arrivals fly Los Cabos (SJD) with a private transfer to Costa Palmas on the East Cape: drive time varies with traffic and season. Private aviation options exist. Your advisor plans door-to-door timing with the pavilion, not a generic Cabo estimate. Luggage and grocery runs for residence stays are planned, not improvised at the airport.
