The views and infinity pools were stunning! Also the Ridge was the best part of the resort, even if this portion of the resort had lots of hills and was difficult to navigate the several elevators. Still we were very please that we had access to a less crowded pool with its own swim up bar and a jacuzzi with an incredible view. Also its own dedicated restaurant was a bonus! The food overall was incredible though the service around the was sometimes lacking due to scarcity of servers. We also had an uncomfortable time dealing with tipping the staff that were very helpful. Overall we were pleased with our stay!

We were supposed to stay at the Playa Grande Resort and Grand Spa, Cabo San Lucas. As soon as we arrived we were transferred to the hotel next door by front office management to the Grand Solmar Land's End Resort and Spa. Which was apparently an "upgrade." They didn't even give us an option to look at the room we booked, just said we are moving to the other Hotel, we were not happy, the original Resort we booked looked more kid friendly and also had mini golf. The hotel they transferred us to was more for adults. Also told us we could take the shuttle back and forth and go to the other resort to play mini golf and even eat there, and when we did, we were told we had to pay for everything. We paid a lot of money for the all inclusive plan on Expedia, but they said that because we booked on Expedia, we get only the meal plan and not all inclusive. When we complaint, the management staff and front office staff's attitude changed towards us for the rest of our stay, not being very friendly. The staff at the pool and restaurants were great. No complaints with any of them.

Sure! Here's a more polished and rephrased version of the review: --- The property's food options feel outdated and uninspired. The rooms and bathrooms seem stuck in the 1980s, and even the TV within wardrobe look like they’re from the 1970s. The beach is beautiful, but it's a no-swim zone. There are very few or no free activities for kids. Pool chairs are available all time and service around pool area is good. -this resort has lot of potential but they need to stepup big time to make resort feel back to 2025

Just an Amazing Trip

Everything was great after asking them to Move us as we are older and don’t stay up late. It was the dream team of staff, especially Jaime, who was so kind to my husband who has had some health difficulties. We are going back and taking more friends and family

Beautiful property with numerous pools, we had large one bedroom suit with two bathrooms. Loved the fact they they gave us a lot of towels and all the amenities. Very luxurious. Close to the marina, 10 min walk. Beautiful view of the ocean with whale sightings. This is no swimming beach due to a large waves and strong tides. The only disappointing thing is food. It was mediocre for such high end resort. Very basic with little variety.

Be prepared to end up with a different type of room than you book on Expedia. I booked a Presidential Suite eight months prior to the trip. After I checked in and paid for the room, I was told that the suite was unavailable, but they would give us two adjoining rooms. Needless to say I was irate! They lied to me and thought I would be ok with it. They would not honor the reservation I made through Expedia.
