December marks the peak of high season in Los Cabos—and at Del Mar Los Cabos, it’s a time defined by vibrant community energy, festive gatherings, and menus filled with seasonal flavor. Warm days and cool evenings offer the perfect setting for celebration, whether you’re spending the holidays with family or ringing in the new year with friends.
From private villa dinners to spirited events at Club Ninety Six, December is where Baja traditions and refined comfort come together.
The festive season begins with the Día de la Virgen de Guadalupe on December 12. It continues through the Maratón Guadalupe-Reyes, a series of holiday events that lasts into the new year. During this time, Los Cabos is alive with tradition, and Del Mar is no exception.
Seasonal ingredients like hominy, pork, cinnamon, and regional fruits such as guava and mamey make their way into kitchens across the region. These flavors come to life in time-honored dishes like tamales, pozole rojo, and other holiday staples—each one telling a story of heritage and shared meals.
Whether you’re dining in your villa or enjoying a chef-led dinner at Club Ninety Six, these seasonal dishes bring warmth and nostalgia to every table:
Wrapped in husks and steamed to perfection, tamales are made with masa, filled with savory pork, chicken, or vegetables, and served with rich red or green sauces. Each one is a nod to family traditions across Mexico.
A celebratory stew of slow-simmered pork, hominy, and guajillo chiles, garnished with cabbage, radish, lime, and tostadas. Hearty, comforting, and perfect for cool December nights.
Fresh-caught shrimp are filled with herbs, cheese, or chorizo, then grilled or baked. A Baja coastal favorite that blends elegance with local flavor.
A breakfast classic made with shredded beef, tomatoes, onions, and scrambled eggs—hearty enough to fuel festive mornings and a nod to Northern Baja’s ranching roots.
No holiday gathering is complete without something special to drink. This month, our chefs and bartenders are serving:
A warm holiday punch of simmered fruit, cinnamon, hibiscus, and cloves—enjoyed across Mexico as the quintessential Christmas beverage.
Rich cocoa blended with cinnamon and a hint of spice. It’s nostalgic and comforting, especially when paired with a sweet tamal or crisp evening breeze.
A warming, non-alcoholic favorite infused with clove, allspice, and citrus.
Whether at a holiday brunch or a New Year’s toast, the crisp brightness of a margarita never goes out of season in Baja.
At Del Mar, holiday dining is personalized for every guest. Let our team coordinate chef-prepared meals or festive dinners in your villa. Our concierge can also assist with reservations at the award-winning restaurants in Palmilla and nearby venues.
