I just spent 3 days at the ME Cabo (my first visit to Cabo). My stay was great; its top quality hotel (4.5+ star hotel in my opinion) and a very cool/chic place to stay. I did read reviews complaining about loud music around the pool but that wasn't the case at all. I found the whole atmosphere to be fun but certainly not wild or annoying. I definitely would go back and recommend it to others (especially younger types who want a cool place to hang out).

Stayed at ME Cabo for a long weekend with a couple girlfriends in January, 2008. Definitely different from the Melia I remember from 10 years ago.

The good: The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The ocean view was beautiful from our room. Good people watching at the pool. We had no problem finding a cabana at the pool but January's also a relatively quiet month. Good food at the restaurant (try the ceviche or chicken panini). La Golondrina restaurant is excellent and only a couple blocks away. Taxis to local clubs are cheap.

The bad: Our room on the 4th floor was not quiet... constant music from the club, noise from the hallway, and sex from next door even with our doors closed and TV on. Pool a little cold especially when the wind picked up in the mid-afternoon. Mixed drinks were weak and expensive (similar to Vegas). Lots of construction noise and vendors by the beach.

After 3 trips to Cabo, I doubt I'll go again. I enjoyed it more as a college student. Great for 20-somethings. The pool scene reminded me of Vegas but I'd prefer Mandalay Bay to ME Cabo for my next trip.

The ME Cabo is a wonderful resort! The rooms were very comfortable, the service was excellent and contrary to popular belief it is NOT noisy. I had a room overlooking the pool (203) and could not hear the music once the balcony door was closed. There was also construction going on next door, could not hear that either. For those who were complaining about the price - drinks and food were the same price as they are at home. If you want to be cheap, stay at an all-inclusive but be prepared to pay for travel into town. The location was great, within walking distance of all the clubs, marina and great restaurants. The best restaurant we found was about 1 block from the main entrance. It is called Casanova and was the best italian food I have ever had!! Not to mention the free wine :) Be sure to check it out if you're anywhere near Cabo. All in all, don't believe anything you hear from the whiners. If there is a little bit of music, so what? It's immensly better than going to work in -40.

My husband and I stayed here on our second trip to Cabo. The first time we went, we stayed in the Melia Cabo Real in the corridor and figured we couldn't go wrong staying at a related hotel closer to the marina area. We were wrong!!! If you're looking for all techno disco all the time, then this is the place for you. If you decide to take a walk on the beach at any point, don't leave your personal belongings poolside - Nikki beach staff, took our belongings (some of which they never accounted for), sold our chair for $50.00 and told us in so many words to 'Get Lost'! When we complained to hotel management, they couldn't help us as the hotel is a separately run entity from the Nikki beach pool and bar area. This pool area is open to the public and becomes overrun with outside guests. It's nice to have the option of the loud music and overcrowded scene, but not to have it forced upon you. Had we been warned before we booked, we would have chosen another hotel. The Passions night club blast music from 10pm until the wee hours on the weekend. If you don't care for their music, you can't even sit on your own terrace and enjoy the ocean air and beautiful location of the hotel. Poolside, the DJ plays the same type music loudly from Thursday - Sundays. You can't drown it out with an IPOD and you can't carry on a conversation with the person next to you. This may be ok for one day of your vacation but to be subjected to it for seven days was way over the top. We enjoy a good party as much as the next person, but this was a hotel I would never visit again. Many other guests felt the same way. Especially ones traveling with children. This is definately not a romantic vacation or a family getaway!!!!!!
