We certainly recommend bringing cash with you to Mexico because many establishments run only accept cash. However, with that said, we don't expect you to come with enough cash to purchase everything, give tips, etc. And while many businesses only accept cash, many of them also accept cards (especially in Cabo).

Mexico's currency is the Peso. U.S. Dollars are widely accepted in Cabo, but expect bad exchange rates if you choose to use dollars. The peso is normally closer to 11 pesos to a dollar, but local merchants are likely to charge you 10 pesos to a dollar for purchasing their goods.

We've had good experience with an AirBnb in Cabo and another in La Paz. I think the key is making sure the host is responsive, and a solid plan for how to get the key. Ideally, either the host or someone else is available in an emergency if something doesn't work or breaks. Airbnb is definitely safe in Cabo.
