Just returned from Baja where a group of us visited the now-being-developed La Amanezca destination health resort & vacation residence ownership property up the coast a bit at Los Cerritos beach south of Todos Santos.

Stayed 3 nights at the Pueblo Bonito Pacifica, the final evening at the Cabo San Lucas Inn. Quite the contrast, not the least of which was the transition from the isolation of the oceanfront Pacifica vs. the accessibility of the Inn to downtown Cabo San Lucas' marina and nightlife amenities. I was happy to experience both.

But the mangoes! Whereas the Pacifica charges $10 for a bottle of water, the Inn offers a mango tree which provided me a free and nutritious breakfast the day of my departure. I only wish I could have carted a bushel basket of them back with me to San Diego.

The Cabo San Lucas Inn is located up a short, steep hill in a quiet residential neighborhood about a 10-15 walk from the Marina. The front doors, constructed of palo de arca (sp?) wood branches, open to a very warm waiting room area in front of a trellised walkway leading back to the kitchen, office, and living quarters. Outside of the common living room space is a porch/veranda where we took advantage of slight ocean breezes while talking and doing some computer work. This area overlooks the Inn's small, 5-foot-deep swimming pool (which feels wonderful in Cabo's humid, 90deg climate this time of year) . . . and, the mango tree.

This place is a hidden jewel which has sprung to life in the past year under new management. Armando and Brenda, the current managers, are a very conscientious couple who helped me out of a little transportation bind when I first arrived in town on my way to the Pacifica. Wonderful individuals who offered taxi service and played tour guide during my stay. They provide the impecable service needed to complement the charm and visual attraction of the facility.

Cabo San Lucas Inn is what you might imagine a small, rustic Mexican b&b to be . . . with mangoes and mango water to quench and satisfy the palette during Cabo's warm, sticky summer days.

My sister and I stayed here for 5 nights in July. We have been to wide range of hotels in all our travels - this hotel definetely tops the list.

The managers of this hotel, Armando and Brenda, made our stay here extremely relaxing and comfortable. We even had drinks with them by the pool one night and they provide great info on places to see and activities to do in Cabo. The rooms and facilities (pool) were impeccable and the general atmosphere here is very pleasant. The location is central, safe, but also very quite.

We highly recommend this hotel and plan on returning soon.

This is simply the most wonderful place we ever stayed at! Especially because the managers Brenda and Armando do such a great job! They really made us feel at home at their hostel. They even drove us around in town and showed us the best places to eat and shop.
The rooms are very cozy and beautiful. Breakfast is fantastic!
The only downside are the roosters in the neighbour's backyard which woke us up early in the morning. But oh well.. if we could, we would be right back!

Cabo San Lucas Inn is definitively the best place I´ve stayed in a long time. I travelled to La Paz, Todos Santos, Los Cabos, Loreto, Mulegé and Santa Rosalía and CSL Inn is by far the best place I stayed in.

Even though the facilities of CSL Inn are just lovely, the best part of it is the people backing-up everything. Brenda and Armando made me feel like if I was a long-time known friend of them and also they made me feel as if CSL Inn was my home in Baja.

As a matter of fact, I would say the place is so nice, it is kind of dangerous. Why? You would like to stay more time in CSL Inn than any other place in Cabo.

100% recommended.
