Espiritu del Mar

Espiritu del Mar is a private, double-gated enclave set within the legendary Palmilla master-planned community in San Jose del Cabo. With just 38 homes, 4 condos, a penthouse, and 22 homesites still available, this intimate hillside community offers sweeping Sea of Cortez views while nestled within Palmilla's broader 75-acre oceanfront development — meaning residents enjoy both Espiritu's exclusive privacy and Palmilla's world-class amenities. The double-gated security (Espiritu's own gates within Palmilla's guarded entrance) provides a level of privacy that few Los Cabos communities can match. Homes range from 2-bedroom casitas to 5-bedroom custom estates, all positioned on hillside lots that capture panoramic ocean vistas. The community features 28 acres of parks, gardens, and open spaces with over 3 miles of walking trails leading to the hilltop Mirador de la Cruz sanctuary, through arroyos to Sea of Cortez beaches, and to Club Ninety Six — the private beach club for Palmilla homeowners. Priced from $1 million for casitas to $8 million for premium estates, Espiritu del Mar appeals to buyers who want the prestige and amenity access of Palmilla with an added layer of exclusivity. Club Ninety Six beach club, Club Espiritu wellness center, and Palmilla Golf Club (Jack Nicklaus design) are all accessible to residents.
