Why travelers love it
“Mediterranean‑style, family‑friendly beachfront resort with swimmable Medano Beach in central Cabo”
The big draw is the location: right on swimmable Médano Beach with views of the famous Arch, walkable to the marina and Cabo's restaurants and nightlife. The all-inclusive plan extends to sister Pueblo Bonito properties, so you get more dining variety than the on-site lineup suggests, though some guests find the resort itself feels dated for the price.
Food & drink
MixedFood is solid but not spectacular, with Cilantros and Palomas as the standouts and buffets that underwhelm. New paid-reservation policies at the top restaurant frustrate returning all-inclusive guests.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Cilantros seafood and ocean view
- Palomas a family favorite
- Attentive servers like Luis and Jose
Heads up
- Buffets described as weak
- Paid reservations at the high-end restaurant
- Limited cuisine variety at Blanco
Dining overview
On-property dining is limited to Las Palomas (regional Mexican and international) and Cilantro's for casual poolside fare, but the all-inclusive plan includes dine-around access to restaurants at sister Pueblo Bonito properties (Rosé, Sunset Beach, Pacifica), which significantly expands your options. Reservations are recommended and walk-ins have been turned away.
2 documented dining venues
Las Palomas
regional Mexican and international, beachfront setting
Cilantro's
casual poolside bar and bites
Counts and access can vary by source and room tier.

Beach
StandoutFronting Medano Beach, one of the only truly swimmable beaches in Cabo, with postcard views of El Arco. The beach is the single biggest reason people book and rebook.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Swimmable calm water
- Direct Arch views
- Attentive beach servers like Blas, Leo, Alfredo
- Walkable beach strip with vendors
Heads up
- Public beach means constant vendor foot traffic
Sits on El Médano Beach, one of the few swimmable beaches in Cabo San Lucas known for its calm waves and views of Land's End. While the beach is public and lively, the resort has a designated area with lounge chairs and service for guests.

Pools
StrongClean, well-serviced pools with standout waiters (Alfredo, Martin, Juan Lorenzo) keeping drinks flowing. Chair availability and loud music are the recurring frictions.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Fast, friendly poolside drink service
- Clean, well-maintained pools
- Choice between pool and ocean swims
Heads up
- Chairs claimed early, shortages by mid-morning
- Music volume can be intense
- No swim-up bar
An outdoor heated pool fronts the beach with loungers, sun umbrellas, and poolside service. Reviewers note that chair-hogging in the morning can be an issue when occupancy is high.

What’s included
StrongFor a beachfront Cabo all-inclusive with a swimmable beach and central location, the nightly rate is reasonable, especially for repeat guests. But premium drinks, teen surcharges, and paid restaurant reservations chip away at the all-inclusive feel.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Reasonable AI rate for Medano Beach location
- Frees up budget for off-site dining
- Loyal repeat guests over 10 to 20 years
Heads up
- $22 premium drinks
- Extra fees for teens on sofa beds
- Constant bracelet scans feel like upcharge setup
Package inclusions and upgrade access have not been collected yet. Confirm them for your room and dates when booking.
Amenities & activities
Couples
StretchRomantic Medano Beach setting with Arch views works for couples, but this is no longer adults-only and the family vibe now dominates. Fine for a laid-back trip, not for a quiet romantic escape.
medium confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Ocean-view suites face El Arco
- Sunset dinners at Cilantros
- Walkable to downtown Cabo nightlife
Heads up
- Family atmosphere throughout
- Loud pool music at times
- Not the intimate resort it once was
Families
Good fitA genuine family favorite in Cabo, with a swimmable beach (rare here), a manageable size, and staff who dote on kids. Multi-generational repeat visitors are the backbone of this resort.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Swimmable Medano Beach
- Both ocean and pool swimming
- Warm, kid-friendly service
- Central location, easy off-site outings
Heads up
- Steep charges to add a teen to the room
- Rooms are dated for the price
Peace & Quiet
WeakExpect a lively soundtrack: pool music, wedding parties, and late-night events spill through the open-air common areas. Peaceful moments happen at the beach and at dinner, not around the pools.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Beachfront ambience is calming
- Cilantros terrace feels serene at night
Heads up
- Loud pool music day and night
- Wedding and event noise carries
- Chair-hoarding tensions poolside
Includes Kids Club (Tuesday–Sunday), classes (Spanish, cooking, mixology), concierge, 24‑hour front desk, valet and self‑parking, and shuttle access to sister resorts Rosé and Sunset.
