Marquis Los Cabos, An All Inclusive, Adults Only & No Timeshare Resort
10/10 Excellent
"I celebrated my 50th birthday at Marquis Los Cabos, and without question, this is the most beautiful resort I’ve ever stayed at. And that’s saying a lot—I’ve been to Mexico four times: Cancun once, Playa del Carmen, and Cabo twice. This one is in a class of its own.
The property is stunning, but what really sets it apart is the staff. Everyone is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The bartenders are top-notch—true professionals. If you want to see a real mixology show, ask them to make you something spectacular and just enjoy the experience. It’s entertainment in a glass.
The infinity pool overlooking the ocean is absolutely picturesque. And here’s a major bonus: the whale activity. You can literally watch whales from the resort. Pro tip—get up early to secure a good spot by the pool and enjoy the show nature puts on.
This is a relaxing, refined resort. If you’re looking for a wild party scene, this probably isn’t it. But if you want to unplug, recharge, eat great food, sip amazing drinks, and truly relax in a beautiful setting—this is the place.
I couldn’t have chosen a better spot to celebrate a milestone birthday. Highly recommend."
"Property is very well situated between the ocean and marina area/mountain view. Property was spotless and well maintained, staff were very friendly and poolside service was really great. Hector our server over the course of our stay was amazing - I’d seek him out specifically. Room was large and had everything one would need. A couple of things were a little dated (funky electrical and well worn patio doors) and could use a refresh but know there are upgrades ongoing at the property. Did not distract from our overall satisfaction with our stay. Young adult children in ocean side room had a perfect set up (and new sliding patio door :). Would absolutely recommend the property and will look to return again. "
"Amazing stay at the Hard Rock Los Cabos. Perfect for kids, nice pools with water slides, kids arcade, bowling, kids club etc. Big shoutout to the entertainment crew - Andy and Lore, they kept the crowd alive with daily activities in the pool. The Christmas pool party was amazing. Huge thanks to the Concierge team, especially Gonzalo from Concierge team made us feel like home, he was regularly in touch with us and also spoilt us with Christmas gifts! Thanks to Gonzalo.
The restaurants were superb, food was delicious. Umo and Teppanyaki at Zen were the highlights. Also The Market had such great spread of food- I was surprised to find Indian cuisine (really yummy Indian food). Not to forget Caffeto for yummy ice cream, coffee and quick snacks. Also Pizzeto for quick pizza by the pool.
Overall a great experience and worth the money."
