Viceroy Los Cabos: stay where they stayed.
The honeymoon resort the show keeps coming back to. Here’s what it’s like when the cameras leave, and how I’d book it.
By Brandi Harris · Travel · San José del Cabo, Mexico
Love Is Blind sent its couples here twice, in Seasons 7 and 10. When a production comes back to the same resort, it usually means two things: it photographs beautifully, and the team knows how to look after a crowd quietly. Both are true here. I’ve been, and this is how I’d think about it as an advisor, not a fan.
Where it is, and why that matters
Viceroy sits on the water in San José del Cabo, the quieter, older end of Los Cabos, minutes from the town’s markets, galleries and Thursday art walk. You’re not in the party end of Cabo San Lucas, and you’re close enough to a real town to have dinner there one night. For a honeymoon, that’s the right balance.
The design is the point
White, sculptural architecture. Glassy reflecting pools that run right out toward the sea, crossed by pathways. The woven nest you’ve seen on screen is NIDO, one of the restaurants. It’s a resort built to be looked at, and it earned One Michelin Key in the 2026 guide.
“It’s a resort built to be looked at. Ask for a room that looks at the right thing.”
Which room to book
Guestrooms. Fine for a short stay if you’ll live at the pools. Ask which way it faces.
Junior suites. More room to spread out, and the sweet spot for most couples.
Suites. For a longer stay, or if a terrace over the water matters to you.
Casitas and villas. Up to five bedrooms, some with private plunge pools. The right call for a group, a family, or friends splitting one booking.
Rates move a lot by season and category. Published reporting puts them anywhere from a few hundred dollars a night for a standard room to several thousand for the top villas, so ask me for current pricing before you fall for a suite.
Bee to add: which room you stayed in, and what you’d request next time.
Eating
There’s a lot on property: NIDO in the nest, Cielomar on the rooftop, Awacate, Casero, a beach and pool bar, and a wine room with private Mexican wine tastings. Plan your first night here, when you’re tired from travel and the light is doing its thing. After that, San José del Cabo is close enough for dinner in town.
Bee to add: the dish or drink you’d order again.
Wellness
The spa adds a cold plunge and sauna, and there’s sunrise yoga on the beach on set days. Book treatments before you arrive; the good times go first.
The water
Conditions along this stretch of coast change, so check the beach flags before you swim. Treat the pools as your main plan and the sea as a view, and you won’t be disappointed.
Beyond the resort
The best thing about this end of Cabo is how easy it is to leave for a morning and come back for the pool. Pick one outing, not three. A dune run along the Pacific, a camel ride on the beach, or a round on one of the championship courses a short drive away. Then let the afternoon be slow.

What I’d tell a client
Book it for the design and the light, not because it was on TV. Choose the room for the view, eat in on the first night, and let me handle the transfer and the perks. That’s how you get the version of Viceroy the cameras couldn’t show.
