Hurricane Newton has felled trees and damaged power lines in western Mexico after making landfall near the popular resort of Cabo San Lucas on Tuesday.
But it has caused only “minor damage in infrastructure,” President Enrique Pena Nieto tweeted.
There were no injuries despite the heavy rains and strong winds, he added.
The hurricane had registered maximum sustained winds of 150km/h (90mph) as it approached the state of Baja California Sur.
“It would appear that we won’t have major damage except for what we have already reported,” National Civil Protection Co-ordinator Luis Felipe Puente told Milenio television.
Twelve shelters were opened in the Los Cabos municipality as the wind grew in strength late on Monday. Newton reached hurricane force over the Pacific.
Motorists queued to fill their cars with fuel ahead of the hurricane’s arrival.
But tourists spent the nights safely in their hotel rooms, the authorities said.
Hurricane Newton weakened as it moved north along the Baja California peninsula.
The government had also issued a hurricane warning for mainland Mexico from Guaymas to Bahia Kino.
The hurricane may regain strength as it goes over the ocean again and makes a second landfall in northern Mexico.
The same weather system had triggered more than 30 mudslides in Guerrero state.
Dozens of people had to be airlifted from a rain-swamped housing complex in Acapulco.
Over the weekend, the US state of Florida was battered by Hurricane Hermine, before it weakened to a post-tropical storm and drifted off the US east coast.
