Just returned from a week at the PB Blanco Los Cabos. I was there with three kids and we had an excellent time. The hotel is beautiful, wonderfully maintained and very comfortable. We had a suite which worked well for four of us. The staff is extremely helpful and accommodating. The location is prime. Right on the beach with tons to do, walking distance to the marina and town. A fun, easy water taxi ride away from Lovers Beach. Everything you want to do is right on the beach. We ate dinner on the beach almost every night, with "The Sand Bar" being our favorite spot.

My wife and I stayed at the Pueblo Bonito Blanco in Cabo February 11-16, 2008. The PBB came highly recommended by some friends of ours who stayed there in 2007 and went back again in January, 2008. We could not agree more! The PBB is a wonderful place to stay in Cabo.

We booked our ground transportation through the PBB website and Cape Travel turned out to be a very good van service from the airport to the PBB. They will only allow you to book one-way on the website; but you can book your return shuttle at the Concierge desk at the hotel for about the same price ($17 per person USD). Just beware of the Timeshare mob that will greet you just outside the baggage area. Just keep walking until you get outside. The shuttle folks are out there waiting. Don't listen to anyone inside yelling out the name of your shuttle service. This is just a way to get you hooked into a timeshare talk.

Once at the PBB, check-in was smooth. They, too, offer a timeshare presentation and ask you to take a "free drink" ticket over to the staff sitting at a table in the lobby. We decided against it and just went on to our room. No big high-pressure sale.

We booked a Junior Suite which was just fine for the two of us. The only issue is that the rooms come with 2 double beds which is a little odd. There is a good size bathroom and a kitchette with small refrigerator, stovetop, microwave, toaster and all of the dishes, glasses, etc. you need. There is also a small sitting area that is nice. The balconies are roomy and are great to just sit and relax on. Almost (if not all) rooms have an ocean view. We were on the 2nd floor (room 219) and were almost directly above the lobby. This put us in the center of the complex. But we had a great view of the pool area and the ocean beyond.

We ate at both restaurants (Cilantro's for dinner the first night and the other restaurant for breakfast one morning). Food was good; but nothing spectacular. We had the most fun just walking down the beach to the several beachfront restaurant/bars). We recommend the Tabasco (to the left as you step onto the beach) and the Mango Deck (to the right) for lunch. You also have to try The Office for dinner one evening (next to Mango Deck). All of the tables are in the sand on the beach. Nothing like it for a true feeling of getting away and relaxing.

We did attend the Mexican Fiesta at the Pool Area which is held every Tuesday evening. It is a Mexican Buffet (about $35 per person) and is fun. The food was good and the show was entertaining.

The Concierge Desk is very helpful. You can do currency exchange at the Front Desk and the exchange rate is not too bad. You can also cash Traveler's Checks there; but only in Pesos.

Check out the small market that is just outside the front door of the hotel to the right. This is a great economical place to get some coffee and food items for the room.

As a guest at the PBB, you also have privileges at the Pueblo Bonito Rose which is next door and at the PB Sunset Beach which is on the Pacific side. There is a free shuttle which runs hourly which you can catch at the PB Rose lobby area. The shuttle ride is about 20 minutes. We would recommend checking out the other properties just to get an idea about them for future vacations.

The Activity staff have a small desk down on the beach just off the pool area. They can help you make reservations for just about any activity. We booked a whale watching excursion there and it was great. It was with Pez Gato. We would highly recommend them. It was a 2 hour excursion on one of their catamarans which left from Dock 4 in the Cabo marina. We paid $10 per person at the Activity Stand and then paid the balance ($20 per person) at the boat the morning of the excursion. We saw 2 whales within about 10 minutes and followed them for about 1 1/2 of the 2 hour trip. It was great.

There are also 2 groups on the beach that can provide kayaks, glass bottom boats, water taxis, etc. The PBB also has cabanas and lounge chairs on the beach for the use of their guests. Just prepare yourself for the constant parade of beach vendors.

The pool area is very nice. We never had a problem finding lounge chairs in the morning. The afternoon might be a little more competitive. The pool is large and is heated. You also have a great view of Land's End from the pool/beach area.

It is about a 5-6 block walk into downtown Cabo and takes about 15 minutes. There is a short cut which cuts down on the time. As you walk out the front door of the lobby turn left and walk through the small parking lot. You will go through a gate that is open from 7am to 11pm. This will take you past the Melia resort and you will continue on down some small streets (you will see the Casanova and Peacock restaurants (sorry--we did not eat there so cannot comment). Keep walking another couple of blocks and you will finally get to a large shopping mall. This is right next to the Marina area where you will find a number of restaurants, bars and shops. Very Nice. We never had any trouble walking around. We did take a taxi back to the hotel one evening because it was late--only $6.

We would recommend Lorenzillo's for lobster ( a little pricey, but excellent food) and Ole Ole. If you are in a partying mood, there is El Squid Roe and, of course, Cabo Wabo. There is also a Hard Rock Cafe in the area; but we did not make it in there.

We had a great time in Cabo. Very relaxing and there were plenty of things to do to satisfy any tastes. The pool and beach areas were great just to lay out and do nothing.

We would highly recommend the Pueblo Bonito Blanco. It is a superior place to stay.

My husband and I were able to stay at the Pueblo Bonito Blanco by exchanging our timeshare. We were notified of availability for one week at Blanco and 2 weeks later we were there!! We didn't have time to do a lot of research but we were so happy with the Blanco. Yes, it is an older hotel, but it did not matter. They keep the grounds immaculate and everyone from the housekeepers to the front desk staff do a wonderful job of ensuring that you are having a great stay.

This hotel is in a great location. We did not take a cab anywhere during the week that we were there. It is within walking distance of the marina and many other great restaurants. Our favorite restaurant was La Golondrina, although it is pricey. This restaurant is an easy 5 minute walk from the hotel.

A couple of blocks away from the hotel is a place called "City Club" which is just like Costco. They only charge you $2.50 for one shopping trip and you can load up on the goods that you will need for the week. We bought beer, bagels, water, pop, etc and saved a lot of money. The drink prices at the hotel are a rip-off.

We did the timeshare presentation at the Blanco's sister resort, Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach. We were skeptical of doing so, but it ended up not being too bad. We went on a morning when the weather was not very nice so we weren't missing out on pool time. For attending the presentation we received $200 in food and beverage at the resort AND they paid for our snorkeling trip with Pez Gato which was $100. It was a nice way to see the Sunset Beach property and get paid for taking a look at it. A word of warning........make sure you are very aware of exactly what the food and beverage certificates can be used for. We had been going every morning to get lattes at the deli over at the Rose and we found out upon checkout that those are not covered. Also not covered is gratuity. We used our certificates to have an exceptional meal at La Nao restaurant at Sunset Beach. We would have not gone there had we not had the certificates, as it is very expensive. As long as you get very clear instructions as to where you can use the certificates, you wont have to worry about any unexpected (and unpleasant) surprises when you check out!

Recommended places to eat..........La Nao (Sunset Beach), La Golondrina - both very expensive but good

For cheap but delicious tacos, go to Pepe's. I would avoid Crazy Lobster. I was unimpressed but my husband did love their tortilla soup.

Another great thing about staying at the Blanco is that the PB Rose is right next door so you literally have 2 pools and 4 restaurants to choose from. Both properties are beautiful.

I highly recommend Pez Gato for a chartered snorkeling trip. The group was having a great time and the staff made the trip a lot of fun. You can tell they love their jobs!

If you have the opportunity to stay at any of the Pueblo Bonito resorts - Blanco, Rose, or Sunset Beach - I don't think that you will be disappointed!

My husband and I just returned from a 3 night anniversary stay at the Pueblo Bonito Blanco. We had an amazing time! The hotel was spotless at all times. The people were very friendly and worked so hard to make us comfortable. At night when we returned from dinner and a walk on the beach, our bed was made down and a mint was on our pillow. Tip the ladies who are in housecleaning a couple of dollars a day if you can. They are very sweet and work hard too!

This hotel is in the perfect location. We never took a cab anywhere. We walked down the beach and around the marina to the mall and downtown. We also would walk out the front of the hotel and down the street a few blocks to downtown. ( Walk on the left! The timeshare people are in booths on the right of the street! BEWARE) Make sure you stop at a taco stand on your way about 2 blocks from the hotel on your right. There is a sign above his stand that says "The Place." He serves only shrimp, smoked marlin, and squid tacos for $2 USD. We ate lunch there everyday! It is really good, cheap, and the owner is very friendly. Our favorite place to eat was on the beach. It was called "The Office". You could eat right on the beach, it was expensive, but worth the fun and romance. We went to the little deli outside the hotel and bought cereal and milk for breakfast so we could splurge at dinner. It was a good trade.

I have nothing negative to say about Cabo except the people who are selling items are very annoying! Learn to say a short "no" and keep walking. We counted 13 people who tried to stop us on our way back down the beach from the marina one day. Also, if you eat on the beach, do not get a table on the edge. The people selling things will stand by you and keep holding their goods up trying to get you to notice them. Get a table in the middle. You are safe there.

I hope someone finds this review helpful. I did a lot of research before we choose this hotel. We were not dissapointed at all. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! We miss the weather, the beauty, and the romance already.
