Tropicana Los Cabos has been a local icon since it was founded back in 1956, by a prominent San José del Cabo family. Originally, the Tropicana Inn had 38 rooms and was known for its welcoming restaurant—a lively hub for locals and visitors alike. Now, after a fresh renovation, the hotel is back with 70 stylish rooms and suites, 2 signature restaurants, a patio bar, a yoga terrace, and more. Located in the heart of San José del Cabo’s historic district, the hotel features stunning views of the Sea of Cortez and easy access to the local area’s famous art galleries, dining spots, and cultural landmarks. As part of the Tapestry Collection by Hilton, Tropicana Los Cabos prides itself on being a unique reflection of the vibrant local spirit while delivering world-class hospitality.
Every unforgettable moment deserves to be captured, and this is where DreamArt enters the picture! As Tropicana's official photographer partner, our aim is to immortalize the highlights of your stay with personalized photography experiences and services. At Tropicana Los Cabos, we tell stories through the camera lens and create memories that last for a lifetime.
Lifestyle Experience
Our Lifestyle Experience is renowned for being more than just a photoshoot—it’s 45 wonderful minutes spent in a wonderful destination. Picture laughing with a loved one, running through the sand, or spinning each other around in the vibrant streets of San José (and even if you can’t picture the scene in detail, don’t worry! We happen to be quite good at the picturing part…). Our photographers know how to capture those candid, joyful moments that feel effortless. After the session, you’ll get to scroll through 80-150 stunning shots, all delivered via USB as well as in a private online gallery. From there, you can choose to create beautiful prints, canvases, or a photo book to keep the memories alive long after your trip. Every smile, every sunset—it’s all there, ready to relive.
