Even though Los Cabos is a more expensive beach destination than others in Mexico, visitors are open to spending more on their rental properties.

We conducted a search for the top nine properties listed on the respective Airbnb properties that will meet similar categories in Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlán, Puerto Vallarta, and Cancún during the week of April 16-22 of this year.

The example was made based on the rental of a two-bedroom property accommodating four adults for a 6 nights stay. Los Cabos emerged in Airbnb as a premium destination with the average cost reaching around $17,986 pesos ($1,124.12 USD) translating to a daily rate of $2,569 pesos or ( $160.00 USD) Where in Cancún, the average was $11,579 pesos ($723.00 USD) and daily rate of $1,654 pesos ($102 USD), Mazatlán it was $12,693 pesos ($793.00USD) with a daily price of $1,813 pesos ($11.00 USD); In Vallarta it was $14,296 pesos ($893.50 USD) with a daily price of $2,042 pesos (127.63 USD)

Cancun offers currently a larger database of rental properties and a notable 35% increase in reservations than Los Cabos does, yet this scene is already changing

While local Hotel Associations have raised concerns about Airbnb’s competitive edge, owing to its lower tax liabilities and more lenient operational requirements, industry leaders like Rodrigo Esponda, director of the Los Cabos Tourism Trust, emphasize Airbnb’s profound positive impact on the local economy. With Airbnb guests comprising approximately 13% of Los Cabos’ visitor population, their economic footprint extends beyond accommodations, bolstering airlines and local businesses such as shops, malls, and restaurants.
