The hype
Guests love the pool and beach access but consistently feel gouged by on-property food and drink prices.
Hilton Los Cabos Beach & Golf Resort
$389-600+/ noche
Reserva esto si You want a swimmable beach in Cabo (a rarity) without the chaotic spring break energy of Medano Beach.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- One of the few truly swimmable beaches in the corridor
- AltaMar suites offer a 'hotel within a hotel' VIP experience
- Infinity pools that actually look like the photos
Resumen rápido: A polished, reliable corporate resort that charges five-star prices for four-star service, but the swimmable cove makes it worth the markup.
Reseñado por @Elholmes: I took my family to Hilton Los Cabos and it was the perfect mix of luxury and kid-friendly fun. Having our own private pool meant we could relax while the little one played safely. The sunset views were the cherry on top of an amazing trip.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
Reality check
You will fight for a pool chair if you don't wake up early, unless you book an AltaMar suite which includes reserved loungers.
- You refuse to stay in Cabo without swimming in the ocean
- You are a Hilton Honors Diamond member (free breakfast saves you ~$100/day)
- You want a family-friendly resort that doesn't feel like a cartoon theme park
Limpieza y Mantenimiento
9
- Housekeeping: Generally excellent daily service, though recent reports mention occasional missed sand on floors.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Bathrooms are spacious with separate tubs, though some non-renovated units show minor grout wear.
- Maintenance: High standard. The property is well-manicured. Any issues (like AC noise) are usually fixed quickly.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, high-thread-count sheets. Towels are plush, especially in AltaMar suites.
- Odors & scents: Fresh ocean breeze. No pervasive musty smells, which is a common win for a humid destination.

Antes de reservar
Es bueno saberlo
- Uber works for getting TO the hotel, but getting picked up can be tricky; taxis are the default and cost $40-60 to town.
- The 'swimmable' beach can still have red flags during rough weather—it's not a swimming pool.
- Kids Club is free for ages 4-12, which is a huge perk for parents.
Qué llevar
- Yeti/insulated cup (keeps drinks cold and avoids constant bar trips)
- Your own coffee stash/Aeropress if you aren't in an AltaMar suite
- Reef-safe sunscreen (prices in the shop are extortionate)

Mejores opciones

- High-floor Ocean View in the East Wing for sunrise views
Habitaciones a evitar
- Ground floor 'Garden View' rooms (often stare at a hedge or walkway)
- Rooms near the main elevator bank (noisy foot traffic)
Genio de Solicitud de Habitación – copiar y pegar
“I am requesting a high-floor room in the East Wing, specifically away from the elevator bank. If available, an AltaMar upgrade would be appreciated as we value the reserved pool seating.”
Preguntas frecuentes y consejos ocultos
Todo lo que realmente quieres saber antes de reservar.
Is the beach actually swimmable?
Yes, it is one of the few cove-protected beaches in the corridor. However, always check the flag system; red flag means stay out.
Is it all-inclusive?
No. They offer meal packages, but generally, you pay à la carte. Prices are high ($$$).
How much is the resort fee?
There is no flat 'resort fee', but they add a mandatory 10% 'Service Charge' to the room rate, plus a ~$4.30/night environmental tax.
Is there an adults-only section?
Yes, there is an adults-only infinity pool (Serenity Pool), but the resort as a whole is family-friendly.
Do I need a car?

What are the AltaMar benefits?
Premium high-floor rooms, reserved pool chairs (huge perk), free breakfast, daily cocktail hour, and Nespresso machines.
Consejos de Insiders

5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The 'Service Charge' of 10% is applied to EVERYTHING, including room rates, so your final bill is always 26%+ higher than listed (16% VAT + 10% Service).
💡Standard rooms often have empty mini-fridges, not stocked mini-bars, so bring your own drinks.
💡The gym classes cost extra ($32+ per class), they are not included in your stay.
💡You have to wear a wristband even though it's not all-inclusive, which feels a bit down-market.
💡The 'Ocean View' can sometimes mean 'Ocean Glimpse' through palm trees on lower floors.
