Vanessa Hudgens is getting ready for baby No. 2 — but not before a mini trip to paradise with loved ones!
The High School Musical alum, 36, shared a look at her latest family getaway with husband Cole Tucker to Nobu Residences Los Cabos via Instagram, on Friday, July 25, as she posed in a bikini and gave fans a glimpse of her growing baby bump.
Hudgens smiled throughout her carousel post as she rocked some black workout gear and a poolside look featuring a straw cowboy hat, ivory bracelets and other assorted jewelry.
“Happy girl made it to @nobuloscabos,” Hudgens captioned the snaps.
The actress, who welcomed her first child in July 2024, was joined by Tucker, 29, for the occasion, along with close friends Alexander Ludwig and his wife Lauren Ludwig, PEOPLE can exclusively reveal.
The pals stayed at the Nobu Residences, spent time at both the location’s Cortez Pool — where Hudgens enjoyed frozen virgin daiquiris and Caliwater at a swim-up bar — and also got to hang at a private cabana for the occasion. Hudgens also kicked back at the resort’s Essencia Spa and had a seven-course meal at the Muna rooftop restaurant.
As for the photos themselves, friends Allison Holker and Brenda Song showed Hudgens some love in her comments section, where Song called her “the actual cutest.”

Earlier this week, the soon-to-be parents of two shared a peek at their maternity shoot via Instagram, as Hudgens wore a cream outfit that exposed her growing baby bump.
“Happy Monday! Love, mom and dad lol,” she captioned the photo.
She previously announced her second pregnancy on July 12, nearly a year after giving birth to their first child, alongside the caption “Round two.”
The Princess Switch star was first linked to her baseball-player husband in November 2020, before they announced their engagement in February 2023 and tied the knot in Tulum, Mexico, in December 2023.

Hudgens also celebrated Tucker’s 29th birthday earlier this month, calling him her “friend/lover/partner in life” and “everything to meeeeeee” in a heartfelt Instagram caption. She previously told Entertainment Tonight in 2021 that her now-husband is “perfect for me.”
“I am [happy]. I really am. I think that it’s also so important to stay grateful for everything that you have in life. I’ve been making that a priority, and I feel like it’s just been making magic happen all the more.”
