San José del Cabo, Mexico

Staff delivers exceptional service with personal butlers who go above and beyond. Stunning architecture and ocean views wow guests, but booking issues and room inconsistencies plague some stays. Expect resort pricing and non-swimmable beaches, but excellent dining and spa experiences make it worthwhile.

Rooms are clean and spacious with a lovely courtyard and pool. Noise from neighboring bars and restaurants affects some rooms in the main hotel, especially at night, so request the quieter suites across the street. Staff is helpful and the location puts you steps from restaurants and galleries.
