First Light, Finest Living: Del Mar’s Signature Morning Rituals

Written by Emmy | September 19, 2025

It’s been a busy week, and I want to refocus on the moments that slow me down and let me appreciate the day. It gets me thinking about the mornings in Cabo; the colors, the calm, and the coffee! 

There’s a unique energy to mornings within the communities of Del Mar Los Cabos—peaceful, refined, and just lively enough to set the perfect tone for an inspired day. I’m Emmy, your Palmilla lifestyle insider, and I’ll let you in on what makes the early hours here worth looking forward to, every single time. 

Easing Into Daybreak 

Most mornings, I let the sunrise nudge me awake. The horizon glows, the air carries a hint of salt and plumeria, and the day feels quietly full of promise. There’s a quiet comfort in slipping onto the terrace, coffee in hand, while the sun makes its gentle entrance over the Sea of Cortez. It’s so peaceful, just me, the view, and a soundtrack of seabirds and softly stirring palms. 

If I’m feeling chatty, a quick text pulls a friend out for a sunrise stroll.  

A Morning with Intention 

Serene sunrises on the terrace easily transition to yoga at dawn. Oftentimes, I roll out my mat on the terrace for a few stretches, taking inspiration from the breeze and that golden light. On other days, I opt for a brisk walk along the beach or pop over to the gym for an energizing class or a few peaceful laps in the pool.  

Movement here is a joy—never a chore. And there’s always an option to match your mood, from guided yoga to impromptu tennis or pickleball; I love how approachable it all feels. 

Breakfast, Unhurried (But Never Dull) 

With my workout out of the way, it’s time to enjoy the excellent food in Los Cabos. It’s incredible how good everything tastes when you actually slow down. I love taking the time to truly savor the fresh summertime flavors, even with a simple bowl of seasonal, fresh pitahaya and a strong coffee. Our last girls’ trip was too short to enjoy the kind of breakfast that turns into a laid-back, laughter-filled affair on the terrace. On the best days, a personal chef stops by to craft something beautiful from local ingredients. I get to linger, socialize, and savor without a single detail to worry about – these are my favorite mornings. 

Café Espiritu and The Shoppes at Palmilla are just a quick golf cart ride away if I’m craving a change of scenery and maybe a second espresso! 

Thoughtful Touches & Community All Around 

Whether you’re an early riser, devoted to morning workouts, or prefer to get your full hours of rest, everyone moves at their own pace, but there’s an unmistakable hum of connection. Poolside conversations, a quick “good morning” exchanged on a dog walk—these are the sparks that brighten the quiet. Even a spontaneous invitation to try out some pastries at Cream rarely gets turned down. Here, community comes to life in small, genuine ways. 

The real magic of Del Mar mornings is how everything “just works”: the villa is always ready, the tech syncs to your routine, and the concierge team anticipates every need (before you even think to ask). Whether you want an early tee time or a smoothie delivered post-workout, it’s never anything but simple. 

Your Morning, Elevated 

The best part? There’s no script. Want to swim first, read by the garden, or make a gourmet breakfast? Have at it. Every morning is an invitation to make it your own, with a little vibrancy woven in by the people and place. 

A few of my favorite ways to add some pep: 

  • Try sunrise yoga at El Mirador or a leisurely beach stroll; the views do half the work for you. 
  • Ask for a twist on breakfast favorites—in-season flavors keep things interesting. 
  • Be open to the “small yes” moments—coffee with a neighbor, a spontaneous walk, or a quick dip just because you feel like it. 

Until Tomorrow 

At Del Mar Los Cabos, mornings have their own charm—never hurried, always full of quiet possibility, and just enough energy to make you smile as the day takes off. It’s easy, it’s elegant, and it never gets old. 

See you at sunrise, 
Emmy
