Top La Playa Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Palace Baja California - Adults Only - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great very helpful. Food was very delicious"

Paradisus Los Cabos – A Leading Hotels of the World Adults Only All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"The place is beautiful, but they do not communicate before you book that you won’t have access to the restaurants all the time. One of the key restaurants we wanted to visit was Almar. It was a deciding factor in choosing this location and they didn’t have it open any of the days they say they would. The Reserve is worth it, but they also close Sante (reserve only ) some nights without notice."

Hotel Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Like the food, the amenities, pool, etc The one thing i didnt like was the fact that the road to get to hotel was muddy due to rain, which one day made us have to go to another hotel to get our ride to our Tour Keep in mind that any little rain gets this area flodded due to bad drain system in the city"

Royal Solaris Los Cabos & Spa - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"The resort was really nice. The views were amazing, and the staff was very friendly. For the most part the rooms were very clean. Had some slight issues with ants but it wasn’t a big deal. I would definitely book with the resort again. One thing I’d recommend is to have all excursions and reservations already booked before coming to the resort/checking in."

Hilton Vacation Club Cabo Azul Los Cabos

8/10 Good

"Staff were good around pool, the staff at reception wasn’t as good, when it was raining there was one guy in particular that let the staff down, and was quite rude about lending an umbrella. Food and drink was very expensive for what it was and in my opinion not worth the price. If they actually reduced price then I would say they would actually have more traffic. I feel I had an amazing trip as there was a group of us that made the experience, but not sure I would have thought the same if it was just a family of four. To end on more positive, rooms amazing and cleaners great!"
