Bartender · Los Cabos

Cabo Bar Tender

Bartender at your villa, from margaritas to mezcal cocktails. $30 USD per hour, 4-hour minimum — one bartender for up to 10 guests.

What to expect

Hire a private bartender for your party in Los Cabos — a birthday, a bachelorette, a wedding welcome, a sunset dinner or a night in at the villa. Your bartender sets up the bar, mixes and serves your cocktails all night and clears the bar at the end, so the hosts get to be guests. Classic and spicy margaritas, palomas, mezcal cocktails, mojitos, piña coladas, carajillos, espresso martinis, Aperol spritz, micheladas, tequila and mezcal served neat — tell us what your group drinks and we plan the bar around it. Service runs at $30 USD per hour, 4-hour minimum. One bartender looks after up to 10 guests; bigger groups add a bar assistant at $25 USD per hour per assistant. Alcohol, mixers, fruit and ice are charged separately from the service. We work across Cabo San Lucas, San José del Cabo and the Tourist Corridor.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a private bartender cost in Los Cabos?

$30 USD per hour, with a 4-hour minimum — so the shortest booking is $120 for the service. For 8 guests over 4 hours that is $120; for 20 guests over 5 hours, with one bar assistant, it is $275. Alcohol, mixers, fruit and ice are charged separately, and a 8.9% tax applies to card payments. The calculator on this page gives you the exact total.

How many bartenders do I need for my party?

One bartender looks after up to 10 guests on their own. For 11 to 20 guests we add one bar assistant, for 21 to 30 two, and so on — each assistant is $25 USD per hour for the same hours as the bartender. The calculator adds them for you as you change the number of guests.

Is the alcohol included?

No. The hourly rate is the service — the bartender, the setup and the cocktails mixed and served. Alcohol, mixers, fruit and ice are charged separately, so you only pay for what your group actually drinks. Tell us the drinks you want and we confirm what is needed with your reservation.

What cocktails can the bartender make?

The Cabo favorites: classic and spicy margaritas, palomas, mezcal cocktails, mojitos, piña coladas, carajillos, espresso martinis, Aperol spritz and micheladas, plus tequila and mezcal served neat. Tell us what your group drinks and we plan the bar around it.

What kind of events do you cover?

Birthdays, bachelorette and bachelor parties, wedding welcomes and rehearsal dinners, anniversaries, family reunions, sunset dinners and simply a night in at the villa — anywhere in Cabo San Lucas, San José del Cabo and the Tourist Corridor.

Can I book a bartender together with a private chef?

Yes, and it is the most common pairing: the chef cooks, the bartender pours, and you sit at the table. Mention both when you write to us and we coordinate them as one event.

How do I book, and what do you need from me?

Use the calculator or the form on this page, or write to us on WhatsApp with the event date, start time, number of guests, hours, villa or area and the drinks you have in mind. We confirm availability and your total, and a 30% deposit reserves your bartender; the balance is paid before or at the start of the event.

What happens if I cancel?

Payments are non-refundable once received, but nothing is lost: if a confirmed event is cancelled, the amount paid becomes a travel credit that never expires and is 100% transferable to another person or another CTB service. Changes to the date, hours or guest count can be made with at least 48 hours’ notice, subject to availability.

Do prices change over the holidays?

Yes. Dec 24 – Jan 5: holiday rate, +30% on the service — the bartender and any assistants, never the ingredients.

Can the party run longer than planned?

Usually, yes. If your bartender is available, extra time is added by the hour at the same rate — just ask on the night.

Reservation Policies

At Cabo Travel Boutique, our goal is a bar that runs itself so you can enjoy your own party. Please review the following reservation policies before confirming your booking.

1. Reservation & Cancellation Policy

A confirmed reservation secures your bartender, and any bar assistants, exclusively for your date and hours, so payments are non-refundable once received. However, if a confirmed service is cancelled, the amount paid is converted into a travel credit: it never expires and is 100% transferable to another person or service. If Cabo Travel Boutique fails to provide a confirmed service, our 100% guarantee applies.

2. Changes to Your Event

Changes to the date, start time, hours or guest count may be accommodated with a minimum of 48 hours' notice, subject to availability. Your guest count determines the staffing: one bartender for up to 10 guests, and one bar assistant for every further 10. Additional guests added with less than 48 hours' notice cannot be guaranteed extra staff.

3. Hours & Minimum

Service is booked by the hour, with a 4-hour minimum. Extending the service on the night is possible when your bartender is available and is billed per additional hour at the same rate.

4. Ingredients

Alcohol, mixers, fruit and ice are not included in the hourly rate and are charged separately, confirmed with your reservation.

5. Responsible Service

Your bartender serves guests of legal drinking age only and may decline to serve a guest who appears intoxicated. The safety and comfort of your guests and our team come first.

6. Venue & Access

Please make sure your villa or rental allows outside service staff, and that someone can give your bartender access at the agreed arrival time so the bar is ready when your guests arrive.

7. Delays Beyond Our Control

While we plan every event carefully, timing may occasionally be affected by weather, road conditions, power or water interruptions at the venue, or other circumstances beyond our control.

8. Our Concierge Commitment

Every reservation is personally reviewed by our concierge team to make sure your date, staffing and drinks are perfectly coordinated. If we see a way to improve your night, we will reach out before confirming.

By confirming your reservation, you acknowledge that you have read and accepted these Reservation Policies.
