FAQ & Hidden tips
Everything you actually want to know before you book.
Is the beach actually swimmable?
Yes, Medano Beach is one of the few in Cabo where you can safely swim, and this hotel is right in the middle of it.
Do I have to pay for the rooftop pool?
Technically no, but in practice, you often need a reservation and might face a minimum spend requirement to secure a spot.
Is it all-inclusive?
No, it's a European Plan (room only) by default. All-inclusive packages exist but are often not worth the price given the amazing local dining.

It's intense. They will offer 'free' activities or breakfasts. Just say 'No thank you' and keep moving—do not engage.
Is there parking?
Yes, valet parking is included in the resort fee.
Can I drink the tap water?
No. Stick to the two free bottles provided daily or buy large jugs at the OXXO nearby.
