We stayed for 12 days beginning May 16, 2009. This was our 3rd stay at a Melia resort and found it to be the nicest so far. The place was beautiful and sparkling clean. Originally booked a Garden View and upgraded to an Oceanview at no additional cost. The resort sits a ways back from the ocean so we do not think it is wise to spend the extra $ on an oceanfront view. The pool was fabulous and water was warm. The food and drinks were very good. (The drinks were not watered down, nor the cheap alcohol as we have experienced at other all -inclusives. Plenty of options to choose from at the buffet and (2) onsite restaurants where you can order from a menu. Service was excellent. The Oceanview room was spacious, however the bed/mattress was hard; you can request a "topper" for the mattress which is basically an eggcrate pad. A taxi (the only option) from and to the airport is expensive, up to $100 per trip (we payed $60 to get from the airport to the resort); we highly reccomend arranging transportation ahead of time; no specific suggestions as we have never done it before. Take the city bus (comfortable and safe) to Cabo San Lucas and San Jose Del Cabo as it is only $2 per person, per direction and you can catch it right in front of the hotel. We were suprised how little the employees spoke english at the resort. It is not very safe to swim in the ocean although there is a protected area out front that when it is calm, you can swim and snorkel. Go see X and X at the pool bar. They make great drinks ! Would definitely return.

Would recommend to families, even with children, and couples. Service was excellent and staff always aimed to please. My biggest complaint would be that the drinks were a little weak, but that can easily be fixed if you go to the market and buy a bottle of liquor yourself. Food was excellent. Best choice for nice dinner was La Terraza. Rooms were clean and up to date, cozy. No issues w/chairs around the pool..it seems as though they resolved that issue before. Beach a little gritty to walk on, but found some shells and nice swimming area within walking distance. we will be back for sure.
Had a wonderful trip

The hotel was very nice. Check in was quick and easy. They even upgraded us to their M room which was oceanfront and had a wonderful view. The room was also conveniently located to reach all other areas of the hotel. We had an issue with the mini bar which was taken care of right away. The bed was quite firm, but it was fine. The food was fine, pretty much like you would find in any all-inclusive or cruise. The buffet had a lot of choices. We liked the Japanese specialty restaurant better than the Italian. Make reservations for these right away if you want to eat there. They have some shops on the premises which were nice and also an office where you can book excursions. Concierge was very helpful and the staff in general were very pleasant and accomodating. The weather was excellent. Overall we had a very relaxing and enjoyable vacation
