Weather Patterns: What Owners Should Know

Los Cabos enjoys over 300 days of sunshine per year, with a warm desert climate. However, specific areas within Quivira have distinct seasonal traits:

• Rosewood (Old Lighthouse Club) sits in a more exposed, elevated zone, making it prone to strong Pacific winds, especially in late winter and early spring.
  
  
• Coronado and Alvar, by contrast, enjoy more sheltered, temperate conditions, ideal for extended outdoor living.

Storm season (late summer) is closely monitored; Quivira’s infrastructure, including drainage and desalination systems, is built to mitigate weather impact.

Rental Demand Fluctuations

• High-demand periods: Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year, Spring Break, and March-April school holidays rental rates surge, especially for 2–3 bedroom units in Copala and Mavila Towers.
  
  
• Off-peak pricing: May, June, and September offer lower competition and attract long-stay digital nomads or retirees looking for monthly rentals.
