Tourist Corridor Beach Vacations

We stayed at Hacienda Encantada on a last-minute reservation because our home nearby was being repaired. We live in Cabo and regularly spend weekends at local resorts, so we have many properties to compare it with. A hurricane was nearby but forecast to miss Cabo, and understandably the hotel was prepared. As Expedia VIP guests, we were offered a higher-floor room with a better view, but it had already been storm-prepped with fabric covering the windows and all patio furniture stacked inside. Since it was only one night, we simply went outside to enjoy the views. The resort has great views of the Cabo corridor, a large property to explore, and some nice areas for kids. Where it fell short was in the details. We were told locals receive a restaurant discount, but received three different answers during our meals, with only one restaurant honoring it. Food and drinks were average, and overall the resort felt more basic than refined. With so many excellent resort options in Cabo, this isn't one our family would choose to return to.

You get a beautiful view from almost all locations. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. I didn't eat at all of the restaurants but the pizza at Il Forno was good. As were the drinks! I would have liked to see a few Mexican options on the menu, but, I could have ventured around the property to a different restaurant if it was really an issue. It was low season, but they seemed fully staffed and everything was open. The only comment I have is that I waited over an hour for help with my luggage on check out, despite making several calls. I had given myself plenty of time for the airport, but that could have been an issue for someone on a tighter schedule.

We had such a wonderful stay in Grand Velas Los Cabos! From the moment we arrived, the resort was beautiful, relaxing, and welcoming. The property was very well maintained, the views were absolutely stunning, and the entire atmosphere made it easy to unwind and enjoy our vacation. The staff was friendly, attentive, and always made us feel taken care of. We really enjoyed the pools, the food, and the overall service throughout our stay. Our room was comfortable and clean, and waking up in such a beautiful setting every day was definitely a highlight. Overall, we had an amazing experience and made some great memories here. We would absolutely recommend this resort to anyone visiting Cabo San Lucas and would love to come back again!

Absolutely stunning resort with beautiful rooms, pools and restaurants. The staff were extremely attentive and helpful with any and all requests we had. This is one of the nicest resorts we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in many high end resorts throughout Cancun and Cabo. I am knocking off one star for the lack of activities and absolutely outrageous food/beverage costs. We had a day of rain during our stay, and there is absolutely nothing to do on resort property that is indoors, aside from staying in your room. They also don’t have any indoor restaurants, so you’re stuck with ordering room service or going to the one covered dining option that is outdoors. The food and drink prices were also quite the shock. Expect to pay a minimum of $500 a day per couple here if you are eating all meals at the resort. They include a 16% service charge on absolutely everything you order, on top of taxes and the absurd initial cost of the item itself. For example, after tax and service charge, we paid $60 for 2 espresso martinis. Definitely stock up on alcohol before coming if you want to save some money. Food prices were not much better. All in all, if you come to this resort expecting to pay for these things, it will be an incredible experience. Everything is incredible here.

Very nice all inclusive hotel, would highly recommend being in the Reserve rooms as you get access to a much better pool and restaurant. The hotel could use some renovations but overall a good option. The section of the beach in front of the hotel makes it all worth it as not much of Cabo is swimable. There is a rock formation that keeps it calmer to be able to enjoy the water. The staff were great and the food was ok. Best at the Reserve restaurant! Nice to be all adults as well!!
