+Trip window per current watch contract: 2027-02-02 through 2027-02-06 (4 nights)
 
 ## Biggest Changes
 
-- KAYAK flight search is now exact-date matched on both routes: LAX-SJD shows Tue 2/2 to Sat 2/6 at $349 round-trip for the cheapest visible fare and $383 for the best visible fare, while ONT-SJD shows $431 cheapest and $499 best on the same stay window.
-- Hotwire now renders live San José del Cabo hotel listings for the exact Feb 2-6 stay instead of a blank result state. Hotel Colli is the cheapest visible fallback at $91/night, or $364 total.
-- The package ladder from CheapCaribbean is unchanged in this correction pass, so the bundle baseline still comes from the same flight+hotel package set as the prior run.
+- CheapCaribbean now exposes a live Los Cabos package ladder: Dreams Los Cabos at $893 pp, Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas at $919 pp, Breathless at $1,091 pp, Secrets at $1,073 pp, Paradisus at $1,127 pp, Grand Fiesta Americana at $1,242 pp, and Hard Rock at $1,373 pp.
+- Cabo Bash now shows current nightlife and day-club pricing with real tiers for Bagatelle, Taboo, Mandala, La Vaquita, and El Squid Roe.
+- Golf pricing is still live and usable: Quivira is $360 for the current twilight window that covers February, and Palmilla’s public marketplace rate is $205 for twilight 18 holes.
+- Cabo Adventures and Cabo Villas both surfaced current water/activity pricing again, including whale watching from $76, private whale watching from $1,504, private sailing from $855.94, and the 46-foot yacht from $1,753.38.
 
 ## Stable Anchors
 
-- Cheapest current standalone hotel anchor now includes Hotwire's Hotel Colli at $91/night, with Tropicana Los Cabos at $272/night, Hyatt Place Los Cabos at $135/night, and Casa Natalia at $360/night.
-- Cheapest current package remains Riu Santa Fe at $833 pp for 4 nights.
-- Cheapest golf anchor remains Cabo San Lucas Country Club at $150.44 for the visible twilight rate, with Palmilla at $213.98 and Quivira at $233.
-- No sold-out items were visible in this pass.
+- Exact-date KAYAK flight anchors and the Hotwire Hotel Colli stay anchor remained the live standalone baselines from the previous run.
+- Current KAYAK hotel floors worth tracking are Breathless at $419/night, Secrets at $305/night, Grand Fiesta Americana at $212/night, Solmar Resort at $98/night, Grand Solmar Land’s End at $138/night, Hyatt Ziva at $314/night, and JW Marriott at $331/night.
+- No sold-out items surfaced in this pass.
 
 ## Missing Or Gated
 
-- Costco Travel package totals are still login/continue-gated, but the destination and package pages remain visible and confirm the current package lineup for Hacienda del Mar, Grand Fiesta Americana, Secrets, and Grand Velas.
-- Apple Vacations still shows live packages, but the visible prices are 3-night departures and do not match the target Feb 2-6, 2027 stay window.
+- Costco Travel package pricing remains login/continue-gated, but the Los Cabos package lineup is still visible and continues to surface Hacienda del Mar, Grand Fiesta Americana, Secrets, Grand Velas, Hilton, Le Blanc, and related options.
+- Apple Vacations hotel/package pages continue to expose inclusions and promos, but I could not verify a clean date-matched package price for the target window from the page text available in this pass.
+- The Cabo Adventures ATV page still hides the clean base price in the captured text, but it does clearly expose the mandatory $25 entrance fee and $35 damage waiver.
 
 ## New Options Worth Adding
 
-- Add Hotwire hotel cards for Hotel Colli, Tropicana Los Cabos, Casa Natalia Boutique Hotel Adults Only, Drift San Jose del Cabo, and Hyatt Place Los Cabos.
-- Keep the KAYAK exact-date flight cards for LAX-SJD and ONT-SJD, since those now carry the actual Feb 2-6 search window.
+- Add CheapCaribbean package cards for Dreams, Breathless, Secrets, Paradisus, Grand Fiesta Americana, Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas, and Hard Rock.
+- Add hotel-only cards for Hyatt Ziva, JW Marriott, Solmar Resort, and Grand Solmar Land’s End.
+- Add nightlife cards for Cabo Bash Taboo, Mandala, and Bagatelle, plus The Cabo Agency’s Cabo Wabo table and booth options.
+- Add excursion cards for private whale watching and the Cabo Villas private sail/yacht options.
 
 ## Budget Impact
 
-- Budget, balanced, and splurge package scenarios are unchanged from the prior run because the package ladder, golf, nightlife, and excursion inputs did not move in this correction pass.
-- Package-vs-standalone caveat: the package quotes already bundle flight and hotel, so standalone flight or hotel costs must not be added on top unless the package explicitly excludes them.
-- If the app shows a standalone fallback path, Hotwire now provides a much cheaper hotel-only anchor than the previous blank state, while KAYAK's exact-date flight anchors are higher than the stale route-floor labels from the earlier report.
+- Budget: Dreams package + Palmilla + whale watch lands near $1,174 pp for 8 guests.
+- Balanced: Breathless package + Quivira + private sail + Mandala lands near $1,853.31 pp for 10 guests.
+- Splurge: Hard Rock package + Quivira + premium yacht + Taboo presidential deck lands near $2,352.45 pp for 12 guests.
+- Package-vs-standalone caveat: package prices already include flight and hotel, so flight or room-only costs must not be added again unless the package explicitly excludes them.
