01 · The Destination

Step into Cabo’s next destination.

San José del Cabo · Los Cabos tourist corridor

Location

The center of the corridor.

Set within one of San José del Cabo’s most desirable enclaves, DUNNA is surrounded by the region’s most celebrated resorts and residences — with El Dorado, Palmilla and Querencia among its neighbors. Golf, dining, the marina and the international airport are all close.

This is not the edge of the map. It is the center of it — you live closest to the galleries, restaurants and the historic heart of San José, wrapped in the privacy and discovery that define Baja.

The Connection

A short flight from home.

Los Cabos is a nonstop flight from the cities our owners come from. Two to three hours for most of the Southwest — close enough for a long weekend, and a second residence you’ll actually use. Easy to reach is part of the lifestyle.

  • San Diego~2h 30m
  • Phoenix · Scottsdale~2h 10m
  • Dallas~2h 45m

03 · The Hotel

LIVE AQUAby Grupo Posadas

Boutique, art-centric, curated luxury.

DUNNA is anchored and managed by Live Aqua — a boutique, design-forward luxury brand known for art-centric interiors, a curated sense of place, and intimate, personal service rather than big-box resort scale. It is operated by Grupo Posadas, Mexico’s largest and most established hospitality company.

True turnkey management

You own it. We run it.

DUNNA is a true turnkey residence, run condo-hotel style: you own the residence, and Live Aqua operates it like a five-star hotel. You arrive to a residence that is ready; you leave and it looks after itself — and can earn while you’re away.

04 · The Beach Club

The Beach Club

A private coastal retreat designed to move effortlessly from day into night.

Day into night

Music, firelight and the sound of the water.

At its heart, the Beach Club brings together oceanfront dining, a DJ-led atmosphere, relaxed lounge and dining areas, a plunge pool overlooking the sea, and a bar positioned for sunset views. As evening falls, the experience shifts: music, firelight and the sound of the water create a more intimate rhythm by the coast.
