Of the two, we recommend staying in San José. It is much quieter than Cabo San Lucas, and not as over-developed. However, if you prefer to party all night long, Cabo San Lucas is for you. High Season is in the winter so accommodation is more plentiful, and cheaper, in the summer.

For hotels in San José please see one of the guidebooks listed below.
