I spent my honeymoon in this Hotel. It was in Octuber in the middle of the low season so no many people was there. The hotel is very nice, the views are expectacular and the attention is great, specially in the pool. They run to bring you your beer very cold. Please be aware of the meals plans that they offer ("ALL INCLUSIVE") or a travel agency may offer you, its a rip off. First the hotel dont have many restaurants, so the food is the same for one week. Second you can only use this plan 2 restaurants. We didnt know that and we went to the elegnat restaurant that they have, we wait 1 hour to be seated, and then when we order they told us that the plan didnt work there (They tell you that you can eat in all the restaurant , its a Lie) so we were very mad and hungry, we went to the other restaurant and we order some meat but they told us that this was not included in the package either. So be Careful. We had some problem with our AC and it took them 2 days to fix it. But overall the rooms are nice. The service is good , they pools are very pretty. Its a good idea to rent a car, if you book it before hand you save a lot. and eat Outside.

We just returned from a fantastic week at the Fiesta Americana Grand. I booked the Club Room Deluxe which offers continental breakfast which was terrific and served from 8-11am, and afternoon snacks and cocktails from 5pm until 8pm. It was definitely worth the additional cost. It was great for the grandchildren, as they were able to stop by all day for soft drinks and delicious cookies. The only negative to these rooms was I had booked adjoining rooms for the kids. They do not have adjoining rooms in this category unless you book a suite. They do offer adjoining rooms in regular hotel rooms.
The staff was absolutely accommodating in every way. They even cooked our fish, Dorado, after a successful day of fishing. It was delicious and cost was minimal. The Vina del Mar ??? was very nice and prices reasonable for Cabo. Food at resort was mostly very nicely prepared and presented. I did not think the prices were out of sight. Breakfast buffet was about $20 and buffet dinner about $30. Everything was fresh and delicious. We went for Thanksgiving Dinner at the Sheraton which is only a mile, if that, from the Fiesta Americana. The dinner at Pitahayas was fantastic. The ambiance, right on the beach in a thatched open air setting, was beautiful. We also did the ATV ride which was really fun.
This hotel has absolutely gorgeous grounds and is set off by itself although it is in a gated community about 7 miles from Cabo San Lucas. The Sheraton is also in this area. The hotel is quieter than the Sheraton which I prefer. Several pools and hot tubs. Beach is very nice although rocky so not really swimable but you can go to a very nice swimable beach at end of Sheraton. Palapas and chaises on the beach at Fiesta.
I have worked in travel for many years and always look at other resorts. To me this one was tops and I would definitely return. All eight of us love it. I also would suggest renting a car. Cabs into Cabo are expensive. The hotel does offer a shuttle, I believe $10 per person roundtrip into Cab San Lucas. Not sure of hours. San Jose Del Cabo is also a cute Mexican town. Would recommend seeing it.
LOVED THIS THE FIESTA AMERICAN GRAND

I've stayed with FA many times and this past trip in late November will be one that i will remember always...

While the trip itself was nice, the resort clean and the service top-notch as always, the real kicker was AFTER the vacation was over. I recieved a charge on my credit card for over $800. When trying to call into the FA for an explaination (on a weekday), their customer service department was unmanned and calls not answered. Interesting.

I simply charged it back through Bank of America, but learned this lesson quite quickly: Never go back to Fiesta Americana again. They may have a nice resort, but if you can't trust them with your credit credentials, then it makes no difference.

BUYER BEWARE!

The writer from Rochester, NY, summed up the Fiesta Americana very well! I just got back one of the best vacations of my life, in one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The landscaping at this resort is so fantastic, and there are tide pools at the beach that are about knee-deep--no snorkeling equipment is needed to see tropical fish, starfish, and other marine life. The beach is kind of gravelly as opposed to sandy, but private, and nobody bothers you. There are new areas to find each day as you explore the property.

The staff is absolutely exceptional and always helpful.

I think that the most popular sport in Cabo is Timeshare Hawking! I agree with Rochester that you can get some awesome deals on sunset sails, dinners, spa services, and cash. If you go to a presentation, just be ready for an indignant and maybe rude response when you say "No, gracias" at the end of the presentation. Remember that THEY solicited YOU for YOUR time, and they made the offers--not the other way around :-)

The little town of Todos Santos, about an hour and a half from Cabo, is very cute--lots of little shops with the usual blankets, pottery, etc. Lunch at the Cafe Santa Fe is worth the trip--it's fabulous italian, with fresh ingredients and freshly-made pastas. Have a beverage at the "Hotel California" made famous by the Eagles.

On the road to/from Todos Santos you'll find the Soriana (a Mexican Wal-Mart!) Try the fresh hot churros and do your grocery shopping there. Also go to "Artisanos," which is across the highway from the Costco as you go into Cabo San Lucas. It's a Home Depot kind of place where you can find non-tourist prices on decorating items.

Your vacation there can be as active or relaxed as you like. I will go back again.
