Why Cabo San Lucas
Desert meets sea, and everyone slows down.
Cabo is one of the easiest international trips a US team can take. Nonstop flights run from most major hubs, and many resorts sit within 30 to 45 minutes of the airport.
The setting does a lot of the work. Granite mountains, cactus and a warm blue sea create a sense of being far away, even after a short flight. From December to April, humpback whales pass close to shore.
The resorts here know groups. Chileno Bay offers full buyouts, One&Only Palmilla can seat 350 on its beachfront lawn, and Montage and Waldorf Astoria Pedregal have dedicated event teams and private beaches.
We bring teams to Cabo when they need a reward trip that still produces real work, with easy travel and room to breathe.

From the office
Why we bring teams here.
We bring sales teams, incentive winners and leadership groups to Cabo, because nonstop flights keep travel short and the resorts can handle everything from 20 executives to a full company buyout.

Questions
Planning a retreat in Cabo San Lucas.
How far is Cabo San Lucas from Los Angeles and Dallas?
Nonstop flights to Los Cabos (SJD) take about 2.5 hours from Los Angeles and about 2.5 to 3 hours from Dallas. Most resorts are 25 to 45 minutes from the airport. Every guest needs a valid passport.
When is the best time for a retreat in Cabo San Lucas?
November to May brings dry, mild weather, and humpback whales are offshore from December to April. July to September is hot, and hurricane season peaks then, so we avoid it for most groups.
What size groups fit in Cabo San Lucas?
Almost any size. A small leadership team can take over a boutique hotel, while resorts like Chileno Bay offer full buyouts and One&Only Palmilla can seat 350 on its lawn.
What can a team do in Cabo San Lucas?
Boat out to El Arco at Land's End, watch whales in season, race paddleboards in Santa Maria Bay and cook at Flora Farms. We pair that with strategy sessions, breathwork and sound baths by the sea.
Who plans and runs the retreat?
The Renewal Office designs it around your goals using the TRO Six Pillars, then handles venue, programming, facilitators and production from the first call to the week after.
