Traveled to this resort with 2 friends in July. They are both single, 1 male 1 female. I am married but husband working, so not on trip. (This is relevant later).
Been to several all-inclusives, this was better than many. Been to Cabo & many other tropical locales, multiple times, all good there.
Positive aspects -
1) breakfast buffet - best food all day. Excellent. I don't eat breakfast, but would force myself to as late as possible, as to be full on good food.
2) quiet pool - get there early & secure your chairs. Then go to party pool/swim up bar as desired.
3) Adults only. We were there to sleep, read, rest, swim, relax, enjoy cocktails. That's exactly what we got to do. It is not a party resort. To have any nightlife, choose a diff resort or go out in downtown Cabo. We wanted quiet, so perfect for us.
4) pool menu options and poolside service. Delicious daytime menu options & polite service.

Negatives -
1) the sales attack after you check in. Once we checked in at front desk (no welcome cocktail as there are at most resorts of this level), we were sent to another table across the very tranquil lobby to get wristbands. Before you are given a wristband, they said what time/day do you want to sign up for free breakfast at Sunset (sister resort)? I said I did not eat breakfast, so didn't want to go & my friends weren't interested, but sales ladies were very persistent. They then began to probe about the relationship between the three of us - wanting to know who was married to whom and why I was wearing a wedding ring, but not with my husband. After much confusion and insult due to this line of questioning and language barrier, we were finally dismissed, with disgust and frustration on the two women's faces. I was ultimately told I wasn't eligible to purchase a timeshare even if I had wanted to, since my husband wasn't present. I didn't know whether to crack up laughing or be offended. Needless to say, we weren't sad we didn't go on sales breakfast.
2) some minor deferred maintenance issues around property.
3) only items in all-inclusive in-room mini-bar - drinks. No crackers, candy, etc. Unusual, seemed cheap-ish.
4) do not get a room over sushi bar/sundries shop. Annoying, less private.
5) nighttime theme buffet, very, very average - at best.
6) no outdoor nighttime bar. Only indoor.
7) using sister properties - not worth it. Shuttle slow. Sunset Pacifica on pretty setting, but is wildly packed with people & people at Frida restaurant are snobbish.

Overall, a little above "just fine." Got a really good flight & hotel all-inclusive package price, otherwise, disappointment level would have been higher.

I visited the Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Resort from Dec 14-21. This was my first trip to Cabo and would recommend this hotel for those who want a relaxing, get-away, vacation. The hotel was beautiful. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the food was wonderful. The pool was cleaned daily and the atmosphere was very relaxing. The one draw back for me was the lack of entertainment. They had a Mexican show one night which I did enjoy but that was it for entertainment.

I have been to the Riviera Maya multiple times and I prefer more daily pool activities and nightly shows. And the beaches are nicer in Riviera Maya.

This trip was just different that my other trips to the Caribbean but I did enjoy it.

Paola at the pool is wonderful. German and Julio are wonderful in the restaurant.

Any review on here that is bad about this resort is crazy! I have travelled to over 20 different all inclusive resorts including Atlantis in Bahamas and Turks and Cacios Beaches and this resort was my favourite. It is truly amazing if you are looking for a relaxing getaway with amazing food. The only negative about this resort is the long drive from the airport as it is over an hour.
Now for all the positives!

Service- The service is amazing every single staff member was outstanding, getting you whatever you needed and always serving you with a smile on there face. Our favourite was Javiar who worked near the main lobby. He was the best. All the bell boys are amazing and always willing to assist you. The staff at all the restaurants are welcome and accommodating, you do not have to get up to get anything. They treat you amazing!

Food- The food was unreal! We ate at the buffet one night and it was your regular type of buffet. Breakfast was always good with fresh fruits,omelette station, pancakes and so many other options. You have the choice of eating at the buffet or ordering off the menu and everything was amazing. We were part of the all inclusive package. Our favourite meals were at simpre which is the restaurant at the Pacifica. We ate there many nights and never had a bad meal. Our favourites were the grilled filet and ribeye steak. You also need to try Felinis, it was at the rose which is a sister resort and it was amazing. It is an italian restaurant which was delicious. We ate here two nights and wished we ate here every night. The atmosphere was so romantic sitting out on the patio over looking the water and the beach and seeing all the cruise ships come in. It was amazing!!!!

The resort was spotless and so clean so that is nothing you need to worry about. I would return back to this resort in a heartbeat. It is romantic, perfect for couples and perfect to just get away and relax! Also the lobby smells like lavander and it amazing! We did not get a chance to go to the spa but we heard from many of other guests it is worth it. They have some activities going on at the resort and i enjoyed attending beach yoga in the mornings. I do wish they had some entertainment at night such as nightly shows as they only did that one night at the mexican night. All around amazing resort and as soon as i get money I will return haha. If you are looking for relaxing couples resort, that is quiet and has amazing food. This is the best resort for you!

We stayed at Pueblo Bonito Pacific Dec 13-20, 2012. I’ve been to several other resorts in Mexico and I would definitely recommend this one.

The good
Great food, with plenty of healthy options and an a la carte menu if you want it. The 24 hour room service was handy because our plane was delayed about 5 hours and we arrived at midnight, starving. The atmosphere at Pacifica is very peaceful and the fire pits at night were a pleasant surprise. There were plenty of comfortable pool/beach chairs and everything is very clean. I loved not having to mess around with a towel card. The location is somewhat remote, so I was grateful the resort was part of a chain of resorts so you didn’t feel like you are in a compound. The free shuttles between the resorts ran on time and were easy to use. We used them several times and took advantage of the hotels in town as a base to go shopping, do some swimming in the ocean, and to go out to Lover’s Beach. The team at Pacifica were all friendly and helpful, going out of their way to remember your name, and what you liked. Francesco in the Siempre Restaurant was superb, a seasoned professional that could work in any 5-star restaurant. Abraham’s tequila testing was informative and fun.

The not so good
There is very little to improve, but we did find it difficult to get information about what was going on in the resort. For example, we had to go to the spa to get a list of services and prices, we had to go to the activities hut to find out what was going on, we had to ask around to find out how to book the cabana’s on the beach. It would have been more helpful to have an information package in our room on our arrival.

The outright terrible
I had the worst dining experience of my life at the star-rated La Frida Restaurant at Sunset Beach. It is popular, so we had to take a 9 PM reservation and when we arrived, they had run out of most things on the menu. What was left was pretty well what you could get at any of the other restaurants in the resort, so they agreed to waive the additional charge of $20/person when you are on the all-inclusive plan. Perhaps this is why our service was so appalling, however that’s not the worst part. With little to choose from, I ordered the pork after which I woke up at 4 AM and got violently sick. I reported it to the concierge the next morning. At first she tried to say it was my delicate stomach that was not used to Mexican cuisine, but I assured her I am not so delicate and I know food poisoning when I have it. She asked what I ate and when I said pork, she gave me a knowing look as if everyone who eats their pork gets sick. I asked to speak to the manager of La Frida and although the concierge assured me on several occasions that Gerardo the manager was going to call me, I never received a call or a message. Since I have no assurance that they are making any changes in their food safety procedures, I feel I owe it to other patrons to warn them of the dangers of eating at this restaurant.
