Cabo does everything big and beautiful: vast desert landscapes, stunning sunsets, vibrant energy, and long days that seem to roll along effortlessly from the pool to the beach to an unstructured lunch that somehow turns into an evening.
Some of this is part of its charm.
However, every now and then, there’s something nice about experiencing the exact opposite—something green, quiet, and a bit more down to earth. For many members traveling to Cabo San Lucas, that change of pace may be found at Flora Farms.
A Farm in the Desert
Flora Farms is a 25-acre working organic farm located just outside of San José del Cabo. However, Flora Farms is more than a restaurant. The property includes a farm-to-table restaurant, bar, market, and beautifully manicured gardens that invite strolling.
As soon as you arrive at Flora Farms, the tempo changes.
Fresh herbs and wood-fired cooking scents fill the air. Soothing music plays softly in the background. Conversations flow easily, and garden after garden stretches in all directions. Produce rows and walking paths give Flora Farms an organic, unstaged feel.
It has energy, but it’s not too loud. It’s laid-back, but not sleepy—exactly the type of place where you instantly say to yourself, “This is exactly where I’m supposed to be today.”
Flora’s Field Kitchen
Guided by the basic principle “from our fields to your table,” the central focus of Flora Farms is Flora’s Field Kitchen. This approach allows the chefs at Flora Farms to highlight the freshest local ingredients available to them and create dishes that truly represent the flavors of the area. Many guests look for this type of dining experience when they travel—it’s a taste of the destination itself, not just a beautiful location.
A Great Day Trip Alternative to Your Resort Experience
For members staying at our resorts in Cabo, Flora Farms is an excellent choice for a daylong diversion from your stay.
You get to continue enjoying relaxation, luxury, and ocean views at your resort; however, Flora Farms provides a completely new dimension to your visit to Cabo. While you’re relaxing at the resort, Flora Farms offers a chance to switch your beachside views for garden views, and fast-paced planned activities for a slower-paced activity.
Additionally, repeat visitors to Cabo find that Flora Farms offers a fresh view of a familiar destination.
Flora Farms Offers Something for All
Flora Farms is perfect for several types of travelers:
- Couples looking for a casual yet memorable evening out
- Travelers with an interest in food who appreciate using seasonal ingredients
- Families who want a fun and relaxing family dining experience
- Groups who love to meander, shop, and socialize without having to follow a tight itinerary
Flora Farms is the type of outing that usually seems to be a winner for everyone.
Preparing for Your Visit to Flora Farms
Preparing your visit to Flora Farms is quite easy. You need to decide if you prefer to have brunch or dinner.
Brunch is a light, daytime meal that gives you the majority of the rest of the day free, while dinner is generally considered a more romantic and special experience. As such, reservations are suggested, particularly during peak vacation times.
Wear comfortable clothing—beachy-chic rather than formal. Also, make sure to plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time. Flora Farms is not a quick stop. Visitors are rewarded for slowing down and noticing the things growing, what’s in season, and what’s carefully prepared.
A Beautiful Change of Pace
One of the easiest ways to incorporate Flora Farms into your stay is to spend a leisurely morning at your resort, go to the farm for brunch or dinner, and come back to your resort for a peaceful evening or for a lazy next day.
No rush.
No over-scheduling.
Just a thoughtful selection of a change of pace.
Of course, your beach and pool days will always be important to your stay in Cabo. Flora Farms is simply offering a different side of Cabo—a Cabo that is still you, but viewed through gardens instead of sand, and through gentle discovery instead of energetic excitement.
Sometimes, it is this contrast that completes a trip.
