Why This Question Matters: Local Stories from the Fairway
A client from Texas once told us he chose Los Cabos not for the weather, but for the golf. He now plays three times a week at Quivira and claims the sunsets over hole 5 are worth the green fees alone. Another family settled in Puerto Los Cabos just for the Jack-and-Greg course combo—and their backyard? It opens onto the fairway. These aren’t rare cases. Golf is a big part of life here, and knowing your options helps when you're planning a visit or a move.
