Where to go in Cabo San Lucas
 

I know las ventannas is the best but what are some other top resorts/hotels. How are the beaches there? Any suggestions. I am going on a honeymoon in June and am stuck between Turks & Caicos and Cabo. Thanks

Since Cabo is in Mexico you might want to post this on the Latin american area too. Congrats!!

I really like Las Ventanas, but you should also check the recently re-opened Esperanza. I received a free night mailer from them recently and it really looks nice.
(That's where Gwyneth Paltrow chose to go after her recent marriage vows were said).
The beach between the cities of San Jose and cabo San Lucas is very nice. The sand is not as softs some of the Caribbean beaches, more like Southern Calif beaches, but the best thing is the beach is almost 15 miles long so you can find a lot of empty space. The water's a pretty deep blue, moderate waves, and the weather is hot and dry as Cabo is in a true desert climate.
I don't like most of the Mexican resort towns for several reasons. Cabo's an exception for me.

The beaches around Cabo aren't bad but you won't find the fine, white sand and turquoise water that you do in the Caribbean (especially T&C). The sand is more golden and the water a darker blue. Water clarity is pretty good in the summer/fall but water temperature will be much colder than the Caribbean.

I realize that I'm replying to your question well after you asked it but my answer may help someone else in the same situation. I've been to Turks & Caicos (Grace Bay and Parrot Cay)- the beaches are the best in the world. The main island, Provo, is very undeveloped and there is nothing to do on the island that is unique to the island. Really, sun and sea is it with a good golf course. Parrot Cay is nice if you want nothing, and I mean NOTHING, to do other than sit in the sun and go to the spa. It is overpriced and the level of activity cannot be described as anything greater than sedate, both day and night. Just got back from Casa Del Mar in Cabo San Luca, Mexico. Can't rave enough about the hotel or the area in general. The hotel is fabulous and right next door to the over-priced Las Ventanas. Can't imagine staying at LV as the resort is very staid and quiet- "low energy" is a good way to describe it. CDM is beautiful, great rooms, 6 beautiful pools, excellent food and all at prices less than 1/3 of what LV charges. Had better meals at CDM than we did at LV (ate at both of LV's restaurants). We also visited Palmilla. Liked that resort better than LV b/c it was less stuffy but, again, it was very pricy and, compared to the level of service/food/accomodations at CDM, can't see staying at Palmilla. The Palmilla has no beach- just rocks that lead into Sea of Cortez. LV and CDM share the wide, beautiful beach but the water is too rough to swim in. Beaches are very, very clean but sand is pebbly and not powdery like it is in Turks. I'd definitely recommend renting a car as it is much cheaper than taking taxis and having the freedom to drive to Cabo and San Juan is great. Whale watching was unbelievable! I recommend taking a tour that provides a zodiac boat instead of a larger, louder boat b/c that scares the whales away. I also took a plane to Magdalena Bay to a whale preserve where the whales go to give birth and mate before heading back to colder waters. That was an experience of a lifetime especially when a mother and her baby came up to our boat and let us touch them for a good 30 minutes!

That's interesting and helpful information, but it should be noted that 1)the original post is over a year old, and 2) it should have been posted on the Latin America board in the first place.
