My husband and I just returned from 7 days in Cabo. Just so you know what our expectation level is.. we enjoy very nice hotels. Our favorite is the Boulders in Scottdale, AZ. We've also stayed at the Wynn in Vegas as well as W in Seattle. We stayed at the PB Pacifica and truly enjoyed the resort. Here is our list of pros and cons
Pros:
>The hotel is beautiful both inside and out. The grounds are as expected for a "holistic spa". Lots of rock gardens, beautiful pools, great landscaping.
> Once you are up on the 4th+ floor, you have a great view.
>No children...we do have kids but ours are older. We really enjoyed being at the pool without dozens of children screaming and yelling.
>The fire pits are great at night. Couches and chairs are set around just close enough to feel the heat.
>The majority of the staff is very efficient. We found all of the staff to be friendly.
>We opted to take taxis everywhere. Not a bad idea considering how crazy the drivers are in Mexico.
>Shuttles are available but too much work for us.
>Our only dinner at the restaurant was good...not great.
>Housekeeping did a wonderful job.
>I went to the spa twice..facial and wrap. Both were great, certainly one of the best facials I've ever had!
Cons:
>Although the rooms are nice, they are quite small. Suites were not available when we made our resverations, so they may be better.
>The food is fine but not great. We found that breakfast was enjoyable but never consistent. Sometimes you'd get everything you ordered, most of the time not,
>I really hated paying $8 a bottle for water...I know...everyone charges a lot..I still don't like it!
>The wait staff is SLOW! Took forever to place an order..mostly at the pool. Sometimes they never came back with the check even after you asked for it.
So as you can see, the pros certainly out weighed the cons. If we were to go back to Cabo, would we stay there again or look at one of the many other resorts??
We'd stay!! The Pacifica is well worth the value...
