A Couples Retreat in Cabo
Two luxurious enclaves with access to Fred Couples’ forthcoming Twin Dolphin Golf Club highlight a spectacular new Cabo community.

With the ravages of 2014’s hurricane a distant memory, development in Los Cabos has returned full force—and golf sits at the center.
Joining the recently opened residential courses at Diamante, Quivira and Puerto Los Cabos is Twin Dolphin Golf Club, a Fred Couples Signature Course that will open this year as part of a 1,400-acre master-planned community located along Santa Maria Bay on the former site of the Hotel Twin Dolphin.
Couples collaborated with Todd Eckenrode of Origins Golf Design on an environmentally respectful layout that features ocean views from every hole.
Residents of the Ohana Real Estate-developed enclave can access the private course, with a pair of communities—Maravilla Los Cabos and Montage Residences Los Cabos—among the most desirable, with prices starting around $3 million.
Stretching across 260 acres along the water, Maravilla Los Cabos comprises villas, townhomes, custom homes and spectacular building sites. Amenities exclusive to Maravilla residents include a 60,000-square-foot clubhouse with multiple dining options and pools; a fitness center; spa; and a two-story climbing wall.
Hike or bike on groomed desert trails, or hone your stroke on an 18-hole putting course. Indoor and outdoor theaters and options for kids complement the picture.
