Top El Zalate Beach Hotel Reviews

Hilton Vacation Club Cabo Azul Los Cabos

8/10 Good

"The property was nice and well maintained but during our stay they close the water bar (Flor de Noche) for renovation to refurbish the bar counter. We were no aware of the and it made it a bit less convenient. Noise level was acceptable. Although not zero obviously. I understand at some point they need to do maintenance work. Prices have certainly going up since our last visit, but drink and food quality was good."

Viceroy Los Cabos

10/10 Excellent

"Viceroy Los Cabos is a beautiful property with stunning architecture, a luxurious atmosphere, and a relaxing ambiance. While I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, the breakfast inclusion was disappointing. My Hotels.com reservation stated “Breakfast for 2” without restrictions, but only the American Breakfast was covered. This should have been clearly communicated at booking to avoid confusion. Despite this, the overall experience was lovely, and I would recommend the hotel, with hopes for better transparency moving forward."
