  Cabo Waldorf uncensored

  We stayed for 7 nights, chk in was easy and welcoming, staff attention to detail excellent, cost high, room service outstanding, location excellent. Food at Manuel’s excellent. Breakfast buffet excellent. Chk out easy. Only complaint first 3 days great, then screaming children moved in next door and above us children bouncing balls , drove us nuts. Would stay again: maybe …. Would at least look at adult only options

  Deserves all its accolades

  An impeccable resort- beautiful setting, gorgeous architecture and maintained at the highest level. And every one of the staff is so kind and welcoming. As others have said, there are not a lot of activities ( yoga at 8 AM each morning, a walk in the hills above at 7 AM Fri and Sat) and a full gym. Of course your personal concierge can arrange all sorts of trips outside the resort. You can sit on your balcony and watch whales migrating during the winter season. The continental breakfasts were lovely and most of the other food we had here was very good ( one miss on a dinner entree and the dining room manager came to me the next day to apologize and offer a breakfast add on in recompense- now that’s service!) The food is expensive but that’s expected at such a high end establishment. If your idea of paradise is hanging out at a beautiful resort, you have arrived!

  Beyond Five Stars

  This was our second stay at the Waldorf Astoria Cabo and it was wonderful in every way. We stayed for a week and wish we could have stayed longer. Beginning from a delicious breakfast each day at Don Manuel’s, to use of the elaborate gym and spa facilities, beach and pools, everything about the facility is impeccable. The staff is professional, friendly, and eager to assist in whatever way they can. We were privileged to have the assistance of our private butler, Ricardo, who went above and beyond to assist with transportation, meals, and other amenities. The Waldorf organized a great Super Bowl party on the pool deck with a big screen and great food. I travel frequently internationally and would be hard pressed to name many properties that are comparable to the Waldorf Cabo in combination of excellent facilities and staff. I am a huge fan of the Waldorf Astoria brand, as I find it to be first class and yet not pretentious. We will definitely be back again next year.

  Why Go Anywhere Else - This Place has EVERYTHING!

  Needed a stay at a Bucket List location for my wife's birthday and to break up a long winter - Cabo Waldorf absolutely perfect on all fronts. Prior to arrival, OUTSTANDING communication and arrangements coordinated by Libia Ronco, Samara Alvarez and Rey Rosas - all exceptional employees and very personable. The resort puts HEAVY emphasis on service and these three were our first encounters, even before we arrived. My recent and pending knee surgeries caused hesitancy and mobility concerns, but Samara made sure we were located in a perfect spot where it wouldn't be a problem. Also has convenient Golf Carts as needed. When you stay here, there are endless choices and opportunities - SIX we can HIGHLY RECOMMEND as "don't miss" are as follows: Friday afternoon Sunset Yacht cruise & whale watch - GREAT VALUE - Book it ahead of time - you will love it!!! ANY Spa Experience A visit to the Agave Study, no matter your expertise and/or budget level - let them teach and guide you El Farallon - Get it booked BEFORE your arrival - Always very FULL Private Dinner on the Beach - We were AMAZED & Appreciative - it was perfect and we even had fireworks at the end - Service & Ambience Spectacular VIP tickets for return trip to airport and lounge - just do it, worth every penny I could go on and on, but here is the most important part. High-end resorts are obsessed with knowing YOUR names and taking care of you at every turn - if YOU want the BEST experience, get to know THEIR names and take time to speak with them, remember them, thank them, etc.... NOT easy, when they have no name tags, but our experience was perfect thanks to the three people named above, as well as the following employees, who need a huge thanks from Executive Management: Alfredo Soto, Larissa Vazquez, Omar Reyes, Jose Contreras, Uriel McCarty, Eneyda Calixto, Fabian Viurcos, Daniel Fernandez, Fernando Vega, Jonathan Padilla, Marcos Mendez, Jym Riviera, Sied Dominguez, Luis and "young Fernando" at the pool, Eddieberto & Eric, Andrea Carreno, Mitchell Figueroa, Martin Tabor, Hector Melchor, Diego Medina, Daniel Amezcua, Alfredo Blancas, Salvador Virvet, Cesar Garcia, Francisco Ortiz, Sebastian Denegri, Reymundo Nolasco, Jorge Taglet, Frankie Madrigal, Omar & Jesus Hernandez, Eddie Ocampo, Jeremy Lopez, Ezequiel Arcos, and Eduardo de Leon. Unfortunately, I lost the names of our Yacht cruise team, but they WERE FANTASTIC as well. I'm sure I've missed a couple of names, but you get the idea - because of all these people, we will absolutely be returning and can't wait to get back. There is a renovation taking place later this year to make the resort even more perfect than it already is. Thank you to all of you and thanks for making us feel like we owned the place! You should all be very proud of the jobs you do and how well you represent Waldorf Astoria, Cabo, and Hilton.

  First Time, Not The Last Time

  First time guests at this beautiful property. I am Diamond, and we were upgraded from the King Pacific View to the King Ocean View. We were asked at the gate for our welcome drink preference. Margaritas it was – and they were quite refreshing. A great way to kick things off! We met our personal concierge, Hugo, who promptly walked us between the front desk and Agave Study, where we were immediately met with the hotel’s stunning view and humpback whales. I knew it was whale season and that they would be in the area – but not in this quantity. It was a real ‘wow’ factor. Following, we met with Alejandra, walking us through the check in process and escorting us to the room. Our room was next to the kids pool and above the Beach Club restaurant and Kids Club. At first, I didn’t want to be near them, as we do not have kids and we also don’t want to hear them while on vacation. In the end, it was a non-issue. The kids pool was rarely used, and those there were not a disturbance. We were over the top happy with the room and view. There was only had a single palm tree blocking some of our view. The plunge pool’s temperature was a happy medium between those of the pool and hot tub. The terrace got afternoon sun, where we typically enjoyed the daily chips, guacamole, and Coronitas. The bed was very, very comfortable. One of the best hotel beds I’ve ever slept on. As stated earlier, I was expecting whales. Going in, though, I thought we’d need to vigilantly watch the ocean to see the occasional whale. That was not the case here. It was quite literally whale after whale after whale. They come very close to the shore due to the sheer drop off from the beach. It was calming to watch them swim along the shore, occasionally even sky hopping. At a distance, the real show began. They were breaching often. On our first full day, we watched as a mother and calf (what I presume to be) taking turns breaching. It was as if she was showing her baby how to do it. A site to see. The following day, there was one that tail slapped for what seems to be 20 times. There was steady action all day that seemed to particularly escalate by the afternoon. While the room is to have binoculars, I highly recommend having a set per person. Otherwise, you might be jockeying for a view. We brought two of our own and watched them all day while at the pool. We upgraded to the buffet from the continental breakfast each day except for one. I felt it was good value, and we really loaded up. I am a runner training for a marathon and used the proximity of the marina to run. My wife is a yoga instructor, and took Luisa’s class each day (which she says she is a very good teacher). This meant we were at Don Manuel’s for breakfast after 9 am and hungry. The Mexican-inspired offerings and daily specials were unique for each day, all very delicious. The day that we went the continental route was only because we needed to leave for the day at 9:30 am, leaving not enough time between yoga and departure to enjoy the buffet. It was a variety of fruit, yogurt with granola (I believe the other choices were oatmeal or cereal), and a pastry. Certainly not a small amount of food, but it would have been boring had we went this free route each day. On our last day, they gave us complimentary Brioche French Toast. An unexpected surprise and so, so good. The room was serviced twice daily. At check in, they ask for general times which you prefer the room to be cleaned. It worked out well for the most part. There were a few times where we needed the room but they were cleaning. Not a big deal. The mini fridge was stocked well with sparkling water, apple and pear juice, diet coke, coke, and waters. We drink a lot of water, so housekeeping over stocked us with extras by mid-stay without a prompt. Nightly turn down service included another thorough cleaning of the room, along with lit candles, and dolces. The staff in this department are hard workers. The staff are what sets Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal apart from other hotels in our minds. We are not uber wealthy, but we have been lucky to have stayed at nice hotels in the past because of my job. I travel for work, grinding out most stays at Hampton Inn level hotels, so many of our nice stays are on points. Nothing comes close because of the people here. From beginning to end, the staff here were impressive, never missing a beat. If we looked around lost for mere seconds, someone would notice and ask how they could help. They would stop what they were doing to greet you. They remembered you by name. Small things, such as folding your napkin while you were away at the buffet were a nice touch. One day, my wife brought her yoga mat to breakfast, placing it on the ground. When we returned to our table, they had folded it and placed it on a stool. We are not the type of people that expect or are used to being catered to, but these were pleasantries that were nice to enjoy during our stay. They helped to unwind and relax from our normal day-to-day. To close out this long review, the service, amenities, and design of the hotel have made us already thinking about our next trip. They’ve made us repeat guests and I will be feverishly looking for 5-6 nights at the base rate for our next trip! Some of the outstanding team members that we interacted with include Sa’id, Oswaldo, Jefferson, Hugo, Daniel, Cesar, Hector, Irbin, Alejandra, and Luisa.
