# The best family resorts in Cabo San Lucas Written 2026-10-10 by Play Day. Family resorts in Cabo San Lucas on Medano Beach (the swimmable beach in town), out along the Corridor with kids' clubs and splash pads, and on the Pacific side, where you swim in the pool. Cabo is boats in the marina, water taxis to Lover's Beach and sunsets over the Pacific. On Medano Beach the water is calm enough for kids to wade in and walk out to a sandbar, and one resort there has a pirate ship anchored in its pool. On Medano you get a pool and the sea. Out on the Corridor, the resorts put their money into pools (and they're very good pools). ## Medano Beach, where you can swim From Medano you can walk along the sand to dinner, the marina and the water taxis for Lover's Beach. ### [Villa del Palmar Beach Resort and Spa](https://ourplayday.com/places/villa-del-palmar-beach-resort-spa-cabo-san-lucas-cabo-san-lucas) Area: Medano Beach A gated resort at the east end of Medano, with suites up to penthouses and free kayaks and paddleboards to borrow.
