Many thanks to the amazing staff (Sergio, Fachis, Victor and Rosaura) at Mar Del Cabo. My family of five had a quiet, relaxing and lovely time. We had breakfast watching whales play, walking through the well maintained property, getting sun on a well maintained beach. It was all divine. I highly recommend this property and its staff.

Construction all over resort. We were not notified prior to arrival and have to walk over rebar to get to the front gate. Jack hammers and saws were going on all day near the pool and the restaurant and bar were closed the entire time with scaffolding up all around the resort. On top of this the resort is much more run down than pictures suggest.

Horrible place to stay resort was dirty. The resort is falling apart. Door handles don’t work . Wi-Fi sucks. Super noisy , there is a lot of construction next door. Staff was not friendly at all.

This property is small and unique next to the gigantic all inclusive resorts surrounding it. The construction next door is loud and a little annoying but the staff makes up for it. The restuarant is very good although it is over priced. A burger is almost $50. We enjoyed our stay though and would stay again.

We absolutely love Mar Del Cabo! we spent a week here last year and loved it so much we decided to return this year. The food at the restaurant at the resort is called Encanto and it’s delicious. You can also visit the restaurants at the resort next to Mar Del Cabo because it’s a sister property and they are also very delicious. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean and updated. Trust me and spring for the ocean view room.

A quaint and beautiful hotel right next to the Grand Velas. Perfect setting at the restaurant and there was no better location on the beach as can happen in our experience of larger resorts. Every seat was private and scenic. Attentive beach front service from an overall exceptional hotel staff. Plenty of excursions very close to hotel. The front desk helped us set up everything we wanted to do. We ate one meal next door at the elegant Velas restaurant which was our best meal by far. Construction noise next door was distracting at times, but no noise on Sunday! This was the downside for us. Menu was a little limited but their tacos were incredible. Tip: We finally bought tequila so we had a cheaper drink option.

Location!
This hotel is lovely, small and very boutique. Unfortunately there is large construction immediately next door from the early morning hours till late (after 9 pm). Food is very very good, service is wonderful. Sergio was one of the best waiters I’ve ever had. I’m an avid runner and knowing the streets weren’t an option given the location I had hoped the gym photos were accurate. They were not. There are two treadmills, old, dirty and one broke completely (shorted out) while I was on it. Overall I’d be back assuming construction was done (but based on the status of it - it will be at least a year if not longer). Our friends were staying in the penthouse and did complain about the noise and were given complementary day passes to the all inclusive next door (wish we thought of that).

Incredible Experience!
The hotel is about 30 mins ride from the SJD airport. On arrival we received a very warm welcome from Janis at the front desk. We were met with drinks and bright smiles. Check in was quick and Antonio Mendoza then escorted us to our room and brought our bags in later. We dined at the restaurant onsite and the food is good. There is a kitchen in the room which is handy. Overall, a great experience. As others have mentioned, there are lots (lots) of stairs but we have no one in our party with mod Ulithi issues. Beautiful property and great service. Thank you!

Love this hotel. The grounds are picturesque and the staff is friendly. Only downside while we were there was the construction next door. However, the staff was kind enough to offer us a day pass at their sister hotel which totally made up for the noise. All we wanted was a full day at the pool with the sound of the ocean and they made this happen. Would definitely come back.
