Presidente InterContinental Los Cabos Review

Cactus gardens surround this low-lying hotel, one of the originals in what has become a lineup of massive all-inclusives along the beach. There's an attentive, friendly, old-world Mexican attitude among the staff members, many of whom have been here for decades. Each of the hotel's three sections is centered on pools and lounging areas, and the ground-floor rooms, which have terraces, are the best; ask about the patio rooms with hammocks for tranquil, retreat-like stays. All accommodations have showers but no bathtubs. Try Napa, the property's top restaurant, part of the resort's all-inclusive plan.

DO NOT BUY VACATION CLUB MEMBERSHIP! The benefits of this membership are negligible. Using the membership is a hassle. Try to make a reservation using your points and it is a battle. The last time we used it the messed up our invoice at checkout and we nearly missed our shuttle to the airport arguing with them. They will tell you during the timeshare presentation you can resell your points, Not true. To get rid of it you can only rent out your membership or donate it to charity and take a tax deduction. If for some reason the points work for you, buy ours at a deep discount, don't pay resort prices. This is a nice resort and the food is excellent. Don't miss a visit to San Jose. Very quaint, charming, and within walking distance.

Just spent a week there from March 12 and enjoyed every minute. Rooms were good and I loved our view of the adult pool in the quiet area and the estuary beyond that. I agree with the good reviews and as for the bad reviews, I notice they were sometime ago, maybe they should try it again or maybe some people are just very hard to please. The food was very good--plentiful, lots of variety and tasty. Lots of fresh fruit at breakfast. I found the grounds were well maintained with green grass and lots of cactus gardens. The beach is great for walking and watching the big waves. I would go back there anytime-in fact I can't wait to go again. San Jose del Cabo is a very nice older town. The resort is as good as any I have stayed at. I do a lot of cruises also and it was as good as any of the cruises on Carnival,Norwegian or Holland America. Lots of fountains around the resort also with open inner courtyards.
