Baby at Home! Crib Rental
Traveling to Los Cabos with a baby can feel overwhelming, but with a little planning it can be one of the most rewarding trips you will ever take. The warm weather, calm beaches, and welcoming local culture make this Mexican paradise an ideal destination for families with little ones. Whether you are staying at a resort in Cabo San Lucas, a villa in San Jose del Cabo, or an Airbnb along the Corridor, here is everything you need to know for a smooth, stress-free vacation with your baby.

Flying to Los Cabos with a Baby

Los Cabos International Airport (SJD) receives direct flights from major US and Canadian cities, making it easy to reach. Most flights are 2 to 4 hours depending on your departure city, which is manageable with a baby.
  • Book early morning flights when babies are usually in a better mood and airports are less crowded
  • Request a bassinet seat on the plane if your baby is under 6 months — most airlines offer them on row 1 of each section
  • Pack the carry-on wisely: extra diapers (one per hour of travel plus 3), wipes, a change of clothes for you and baby, bottles or nursing cover, pacifiers, and a small blanket
  • Feed during takeoff and landing to help equalize ear pressure — breastfeeding, bottle, or pacifier all work
  • Gate-check your stroller for free so you can use it through the airport
  • Bring a baby carrier for navigating customs and baggage claim — it keeps your hands free
SJD airport is modern and well-equipped with family restrooms and nursing rooms. After clearing customs, you will find taxis, shuttles, and rental car desks all in the same terminal.

Where to Stay in Los Cabos with a Baby

Choosing the right accommodation makes all the difference. Most resorts in Los Cabos are very welcoming to babies, but here is what to look for:
  • Suites with kitchenettes for preparing bottles, sterilizing pacifiers, and storing snacks
  • Ground-floor rooms or buildings with elevators to avoid hauling a stroller up stairs
  • Resorts with shallow pool areas or kiddie pools for splashing
  • Airbnb or villa rentals with separate bedrooms so you can put baby to sleep and still enjoy the evenings

Baby Gear Rental in Los Cabos

The single best tip for traveling to Los Cabos with a baby is: do not bring bulky baby gear. Airlines charge steep fees for checked luggage, and wrestling a car seat, stroller, and pack n play through the airport is exhausting. Instead, rent everything from Baby at Home! Crib Rental and have it delivered directly to your accommodation before you check in.
We deliver premium, sanitized baby equipment throughout Los Cabos — from Cabo San Lucas to San Jose del Cabo and everywhere in between. Our rental inventory includes:
  • Full-size cribs and bassinets with firm mattresses for safe sleep
  • Pack n Plays and travel cribs — lightweight and portable
  • Lightweight strollers perfect for the marina and resort grounds
  • High chairs and booster seats for meal times
  • Car seats if you plan to rent a car
  • Beach gear: beach toys, shade tents, floaties, and baby pools
  • Baby monitors, bottle sterilizers, sound machines, and more
Everything is professionally cleaned and sanitized before each rental. Just book online, tell us where you are staying and when you arrive, and we take care of the rest. Arrive with just your carry-on and enjoy more time with your family.

What to Pack for Your Baby — Los Cabos Edition

Los Cabos has warm weather year-round, so pack light, breathable clothing. Here is a checklist of what to bring (and what to skip):
Pack in your luggage:
  • Lightweight cotton onesies and rompers
  • Swim diapers and UV-protective swimwear
  • A wide-brim sun hat and baby sunscreen (mineral-based recommended)
  • Light muslin blankets for naps and nursing
  • Baby-safe insect repellent
  • A compact first-aid kit with baby thermometer, saline drops, and infant Tylenol
Do NOT pack (rent locally):
  • Crib, pack n play, or bassinet
  • Stroller
  • High chair or booster seat
  • Car seat (unless you have a specific brand preference)
  • Beach toys and shade equipment
Pharmacies in Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo carry diapers, wipes, formula, and basic baby supplies, but selection is limited. Pack enough diapers and formula for the first two days, then you can find more at grocery stores like Chedraui, Walmart, or City Market.

Beach Tips for Babies in Los Cabos

Not all beaches in Los Cabos are safe for swimming, especially with a baby. Strong currents and undertows are common on the Pacific side. Stick to these baby-friendly beaches:
  • Medano Beach (Playa El Medano) — The calmest, most swimmable beach in Cabo San Lucas. Gentle waves, soft sand, and plenty of restaurants with umbrellas and chairs right on the sand. Perfect for babies to splash and play.
  • Santa Maria Beach — A sheltered cove with calm, clear water. Good for older babies and toddlers, but there are no facilities, so bring everything you need.
  • Chileno Beach — Another protected cove popular with families. Great snorkeling for older kids, and the water is usually very calm.
  • Hotel pools — Many resorts have zero-entry pools or dedicated kiddie areas that are safer and more convenient than the ocean for babies.

Feeding Your Baby in Los Cabos

If you are breastfeeding, you are all set — most restaurants and public spaces in Los Cabos are nursing-friendly. If you use formula, pack enough for the entire trip since familiar brands may not be available. If you are starting solids, most resort restaurants and local eateries can prepare simple dishes like mashed avocado, steamed vegetables, or plain rice. Many grocery stores sell baby food pouches and jars.

Health and Safety Tips

  • Stay hydrated: The Los Cabos sun is intense. Offer your baby breastmilk, formula, or water often. Avoid tap water — use bottled water for drinking and brushing teeth
  • Sun protection: Keep your baby out of direct sun between 11 AM and 3 PM. Use a stroller with a canopy, a wide-brim hat, and a baby-safe mineral sunscreen on exposed skin
  • Know where to go: Cabo San Lucas has several modern hospitals and clinics with English-speaking staff. The nearest hospital to the Corridor is Hospital H+ Los Cabos
  • Travel insurance: Always get travel insurance that covers medical expenses for your entire family

Enjoying Your Evenings

One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a baby is that they go to bed early. Here is how to still enjoy your Los Cabos evenings:
  • Book accommodation with a balcony or patio so you can sit outside after bedtime
  • Use a baby monitor (rent one from Baby at Home!) and sit just outside your room with your partner
  • Look for resorts with babysitting services so you can have a date night
  • Order room service and enjoy a quiet dinner with a view while the baby sleeps

Crib Rental, you can focus on what really matters: making beautiful family memories. The warm sun, the sound of the waves, your baby’s first time feeling sand between their toes — that is what a vacation to Los Cabos is all about.
