About Acres:

Tucked in the foothills of San Jose del Cabo is Acre, a lush sanctuary set on 25 acres of abundant greenery. Featuring elegant treehouses, organic farms, and an award-winning bar and restaurant, connection and celebration are at the heart of what we do.

The Treehouses:

Equal parts earthy and sophisticated, our treehouses are your have-and-eat-your-cake hideaway: a private jungle oasis with the frills of a boutique hotel.

Wake to dappled sunlight creeping through the thatched walls, sip on small-batch mezcal from your terrace at golden hour, fall asleep to the soothing sound of the Baja breeze weaving through the surrounding palms. The wind acts as a natural white noise machine, which we’ve been told makes for some incredible rest (we’d venture the plush king-size beds don’t hurt, either). Come morning, chirping birds serve as your natural alarm clock – and on active days, this may include the occasional crowing rooster!

Each with a bathroom, closet, spacious patio, outdoor shower, and high-speed internet, our treehouses embrace their environment in both form and function; the decor is thoughtfully crafted by Mexican artisans, and the walls are constructed from the branches of local trees.

Nestled in a canopy of palms, each treehouse is accessible via its own foliage-bedecked path, offering complete privacy steps from the buzz of our restaurant and bar. Free rein to enjoy all our ever-growing grounds have to offer. Sip on award-winning cocktails by the pool, play a game of badminton or bocce, explore our gardens, and get to know our menagerie of Acre animals; our family includes peacocks, roosters, Nigerian dwarf goats, and one incredibly adorable donkey named Burrito.
A stay at Acre is to connect with nature without the creature comfort sacrifice. There’s nothing quite like it!
