Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos
About the Resort
Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos is set along the stunning coastline of San José del Cabo, where the Baja desert creates a dramatic backdrop for celebrations. This all-inclusive resort offers Hyatt's signature four-event wedding package structure, with dedicated venues for each celebration component. The property's contemporary Mexican architecture, infinity pools, and world-class dining create a sophisticated setting. Both adults-only and family-friendly sections ensure every wedding guest finds their perfect space.
Wedding Planning Notes
Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos is on the Pacific coast (San José del Cabo side), 10 minutes from Los Cabos International (SJD) — one of the closest airport transfers of any all-inclusive in Mexico. The Sea of Cortez setting means generally calmer water for beach ceremonies than the Atlantic-facing properties. Family-friendly. World of Hyatt benefits apply. Wedding capacity is mid-sized; large 150+ guest weddings should confirm venue capacity early.

Wedding Venues at Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos
Where ceremonies, receptions, and welcome events actually happen
Sea of Cortez Beach
ceremonyUp to 150 guests
The resort's beach ceremony site on the calmer Sea of Cortez side of the Baja peninsula — water here is noticeably gentler than the open-Pacific stretches further down the coast, which matters for sound and for guests seated close to the shoreline. San José del Cabo runs strong afternoon sun; most planners set ceremonies for late afternoon so the light falls behind the couple. Los Cabos beach ceremonies sit under federal-zone rules — confirm the exact beach section and permitting with the resort.
Sky Terrace
ceremonyUp to 120 guests
Elevated open-air deck with the desert-meets-ocean views that are the signature Los Cabos backdrop. Works as a ceremony site or as the cocktail-hour space between a beach ceremony and an indoor reception. Wind picks up at elevation in the late afternoon — a planner will often hold this for cocktails rather than a seated ceremony if the forecast is breezy.
Pool Deck & Garden
welcomeUp to 180 guests
Poolside and garden space used for welcome events, Mehndi nights, and Sangeet performances. The open layout takes a stage and full DJ setup — this is the natural home for high-energy pre-wedding events when the guest list runs large.
Grand Ballroom
receptionUp to 200 guests
Indoor, climate-controlled reception space — the weather-contingency venue and the right call for 150+ seated dinners. Baja evenings cool off fast in the winter months, which makes the ballroom a genuine comfort choice rather than just a rain backup. Full load-in for stage, mandap, and lighting.
Beachfront Reception
receptionUp to 140 guests
Sand-set reception paired with the beach ceremony for couples who want the full evening on one footprint under the stars. Plan for wind and a sound curfew — confirm both with the resort before committing to an outdoor reception.
Wedding Packages
Package tiers at Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos
Intimate Ceremony Package
Entry tier for small destination weddings — symbolic or legal ceremony, guest counts up to roughly 30. The package most couples choose when the Cabos celebration is the intimate part and the larger reception happens back home.
- Symbolic or legal officiant
- Bouquet and boutonnière
- Ceremony décor and guest seating
- Cake and sparkling-wine toast
- Semi-private celebration dinner
Four-Event Wedding Package
Hyatt Ziva's signature event-based structure — ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner reception, and after-party each get a dedicated venue and time block. The mid-tier most 50–150 guest weddings use.
- Dedicated venue for each of the four events
- Private cocktail hour with stations
- Reception dinner with custom menu planning
- DJ and dance-floor setup
- Photography coordination
- Couples' suite upgrade
South Asian Multi-Day Celebration
For full multi-day South Asian sequences — Haldi, Mehndi, Sangeet, ceremony, and reception across separate venues. Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos can host the sequence; DreamWed coordinates the cultural elements. Confirm early which elements are on-property versus brought in through our vendor network.
- Multi-day venue sequencing (3–5 events)
- Mandap setup and breakdown
- South Asian, vegetarian, and Jain menu planning
- Indian DJ and sound-system options
- Cultural ceremony protocol coordination
- Group room-block management
Catering & Dietary
What this resort's kitchen actually handles
Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos runs an all-inclusive kitchen with custom wedding-menu planning, and the culinary team handles vegetarian, vegan, and allergy-conscious menus as standard. For full South Asian menus — North Indian, South Indian, Gujarati, Jain — confirm with your DreamWed coordinator whether the property's kitchen delivers it on-site or whether it comes through our Los Cabos preferred-vendor network; this varies by season and guest count. Tastings are typically arranged on a pre-wedding site visit. Halal and kosher requests are workable but should be raised at booking, not close to the date.
How Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos Compares
Choosing between Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos and similar properties
Pick Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos if
You want the desert-meets-ocean Baja backdrop, the calmer Sea of Cortez water, and the shortest airport transfer of almost any Mexico all-inclusive — SJD is 10 minutes away. Cabos light and landscape photograph very differently from the Caribbean.
Pick Hyatt Ziva Cancun if
You want classic turquoise-Caribbean beach and warmer swimmable water year-round. Hyatt Ziva Cancun sits on its own peninsula with water on three sides — a more traditional tropical-beach-wedding look, and slightly larger wedding capacity.
Pick Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos if
You want Hyatt's structured four-event package format and a property with both adults-only and all-ages sections, so a mixed-age guest list is easy to seat and house.
Pick Hard Rock Los Cabos if
Your guest list skews younger and you want a higher-energy, entertainment-forward property. Hard Rock Los Cabos leans harder into nightlife and a livelier overall scene.
