Rating8.1Rating7.0Rating9.1The activity schedule is dense — aqua aerobics, yoga, dance classes, cooking demos, rum and tequila tastings, and themed events all run throughout the day, most included in the rate. Water sports (paddleboarding, kayaking) are available off the beach, though the non-swimmable ocean limits how useful they are. The KidZ Club runs daily 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for ages 4–12. Off-site excursions are handled by third-party vendors at the hospitality desk and are not included. Personal training sessions in the gym cost extra.
The main visual draw of the resort, positioned to look out over the Sea of Cortez. Swim-up bar (Bar Azul) is attached. All ages permitted. Lounge chairs along the edge go fast by mid-morning — arrive by 9 a.m. to get a front-row spot with an unobstructed ocean sightline. Crowd levels peak between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Smaller, heated pool exclusively for guests 18 and older. The Baja Bar serves drinks poolside. Noticeably quieter than the main pool area — the practical choice for couples or adults who want to read or nap without interruption. Heated, so it remains comfortable during cooler winter mornings.
Dedicated water play area for younger guests, with five slides including a twisting enclosed one and a shallower splash zone for toddlers. The separation from the main pool areas means kids can be active without disrupting the rest of the property. Shallow depth throughout.
Large lap-appropriate pool with a volleyball net, basketball hoop, and floaties. Not a shallow pool — parental supervision is needed for young children. This is where aqua aerobics, pool parties, and organized games happen. Expect noise and activity during scheduled events, typically late morning through mid-afternoon.
Two hot tubs on property. Useful after water sports or a long activity day. Not large enough to serve as a social gathering point — more of a recovery option than a hangout.
The resort sits directly on a stretch of sandy coast along the Sea of Cortez. The water looks calm and inviting from the shore but carries strong rip currents — the resort prohibits ocean swimming and the prohibition is enforced. This is a beach for sunbathing, walking, and watching the water, not swimming in it. Lounge chairs and umbrellas are provided at no charge. Private cabanas are available to rent for guests who want upgraded service and shade. Whale sightings from the beach are possible January through March.
Scheduled pool fitness sessions, included. One of the more popular morning activities — the instructor energy level tends to determine how useful guests find this. Good for travelers who want to stay moving without leaving the resort.
Midday poolside events with music and organized games. Volume can get high during foam parties or DJ sets — guests seeking quiet afternoons should use the adults-only pool during these times.
Main pool, walk-up. Casual format — no competitive league, just organized pickup games. Suits guests of any skill level. Included.
Available off the beach, included. The non-swimmable ocean means conditions can be rougher than expected. Best in the morning when winds are calmer.
Beach launch, included. Same caveat as paddleboarding regarding ocean conditions. Worth trying early in the trip when winds are lighter.
General diving programming is available. Los Cabos has good dive sites — Cabo Pulmo and the sandfalls off Cabo San Lucas are notable — but off-site excursions cost extra. Confirm what the on-site diving program covers before assuming full dives are included.
Courts are available, included. Racquets are generally provided. No structured lessons in the base program — clinics, if offered, may be extra.
Beach volleyball courts on the sand, included. Casual walk-up play. The beach setting works even if you cannot swim.
Basketball hoops in the pool area, included. Informal pickup — no organized games, just equipment access.
Lawn game, included. Casual option for families or groups between organized activities.
Organized games available through the activities program, included. Check the daily schedule at the concierge desk for timing.
Available on property, included. A smaller-court racquet game — good for guests who want something active but shorter than a full tennis match.
Oceanfront gym with modern cardio and weight equipment, LCD screens on cardio machines. Included. Open early — practical for guests who want to work out before the day's program begins.
Scheduled sessions included. Check the daily board for times — morning classes tend to draw more participants. Works for beginners through intermediate levels.
Shorter guided sessions, included. Useful after long activity days or as a morning warm-up before other classes.
Pool-based, low-impact workout sessions, included. Good for guests with joint issues who still want structured exercise.
Supervised program for ages 4–12, daily 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a lunch break. Clubhouse with arts, crafts, toys, and a movie room. Outdoor mini water park with five slides and a toddler splash area. Included. Drop-off style — parents get actual free time.
Renovated in 2025, the Teen Club has PlayStations, games, and a dedicated space away from the younger kids. Included. Gives older children a reason to not monopolize the adults-only pool area.
Evening entertainment in the main theater or poolside — live music, concerts, and production shows. Included. Quality varies; the schedule is posted daily. Worth checking for anything resort-specific rather than generic cover shows.
Special theme nights throughout the week — white parties, Mexican fiestas, and similar. Included. Some guests find these a highlight; others tune them out. Worth checking the weekly calendar at arrival.
Chef-led sessions covering local and international dishes, included. Offered periodically rather than daily — check the schedule. Worth attending once if you are interested in Baja California cuisine.
Salsa, merengue, and similar Latin styles taught poolside or in the activity area. Included. Instructors are consistently praised in guest reviews for energy and patience with beginners.
Guided tastings covering regional Mexican spirits, included. El Agave bar also runs some premium tastings at an extra charge. The included version is a good introduction for guests unfamiliar with mezcal and aged tequilas.
Not included. Booked through the hospitality desk via third-party vendors. Los Cabos excursion options include whale watching (January–March), the Cabo Arch boat tours, Cabo Pulmo diving, and ATV desert rides. Prices vary by vendor.
One-on-one sessions with gym staff, available at an extra charge. Worth considering for guests staying a week or more who want structured programming.
