Wait A Minute Your Mother-In-Law Lives With You?: Mother’s Day is here, and honoring this cherished member of the family has always been one of the most important aspects of Mexican culture.
It’s as if time stands still on this one day to celebrate the matriarch of the family; be it mother, grandmother, or, if you are lucky to have longevity in your family, great grandmother.
So, it should come as no surprise that many multi-generational families here in Mexico all live under the same roof. Sort of.
Your family compound may have separate homes sharing the same property, it may be a luxury home with detached casita allowing private quarters for mom or simply a fully contained wing off the main house providing a quiet space for your beloved mother-in-law. Resort living designed for enjoyment by the entire family.
And look at it this way – with mom or mom-in-law close by……
*Your favorite meals from childhood are only a holler away.
*A built-in babysitter who truly loves your children and is always available.
*Family get-togethers are easy to organize.
*The motherly advice you have always relied on is readily available. (sometimes without even asking)
In fact, many of the real estate properties offered for sale by The Agency Los Cabos have the added benefit of plenty of room for everyone.
Take, for example, Hacienda Del Ocaso one of only five estates on this most magnificent stretch of beach, located halfway between Cabo and Todos Santos, at Shipwreck Point.
Completely walled and gated, this hacienda features individual access to each of the five guest suites is from the inner courtyard. An accommodating choice of beds, as well as private baths and cozy sitting areas, allows sleeping for up to 12-18 guests.
Another option might be Buenavista 3, located in the premier neighborhood of Buena Vista, in the master-planned community of Cabo Del Sol.
This sprawling custom home is designed with the entertainer in mind. The one-level open plan offers dining, media, and living area which lead to the pool patio level, offering convenient indoor and outdoor living.

There is an entry courtyard with a fountain and a fenced-in area. This home is perfect for family and guests, located three miles from Cabo San Lucas.
Heading out to Palmilla Estates, you can discover Casa Suzanna a sprawling, five-bedroom, five and one half bath home located within the luxurious Palmilla Resort.
This single-level home is in the gated neighborhood of Palmilla Estates, close to the clubhouse of the Jack Nicklaus twenty-seven-hole golf course, and offers 531 square meters (5,715 square feet) of living space including a backyard casita that can be used as the fifth bedroom.
One thing to keep in mind when celebrating this important event is that Mother’s Day in the USA is always the second Sunday of May and El DÃa de las Madres in Mexico is always on May 10th.
Let’s celebrate and honor the huge role mothers play in our lives.
