However, we loved Talay, the Thai food restaurant. We are used to paying a lot at these types of resorts but also expect a delicious meal and great drinks (we were just at Nobu where the food was excellent at every restaurants, morning or night). We weren't too impressed with Mezcal and Marea food quality with so-so tasting dishes at very high prices. We didn't spend too much time in the room so this wasn't a deal breaker for me but just confusing My only other complaint would be the food quality, food options and high prices. My family and I booked 3 of the same rooms and my sister had an incredible pool view whereas our other two rooms at the same price were facing construction. On top of that, our AC in our room was broken the first day and we had to have maintenance in our room for an hour at 9pm which wasn't ideal. We arrived at 11:30 and were told the room wasn't ready. For example, we called ahead to request an early check-in but didn't want to arrive and have to wait so we were told our room would be ready by 11:00. The mediocre: For the price (we were paying around $1700/night), I did expect more from a service perspective and was hoping service would be more like the Four Seasons where they anticipate your needs. We were here for Easter and loved that they made it so special for the kids with a petting zoo, craft station and lots of fun decorations and an easter egg hunt! While our kids didn't attend the kids club, it looked wonderful. The good: The most beautiful and kid friendly beach with snorkeling, paddle boarding and kayaking which is rare to find in Cabo given the strong tides. Overall, wonderful experience! We are looking forward to our return!… Both Sandra and Esperanza provided incredible massages. I enjoyed my couples massage so much that I booked another massage on my last day. ![]() The vibe was incredibly chill and the music was very relaxing. The adult infinity edge pool overlooking the bay was a dream. The staff brought complimentary popsicles and smoothies by daily. We typically arrived after lunch and never had an issue with getting front row seats. The family pool was huge it felt like we had the whole pool to ourselves. Coffee, pastries and gelato at Paletas was a treat. Our favorites included the tuna ceviche, sea bass, steak tacos, oysters with habanero mignonette and rotisserie chicken gyro. We enjoyed beachfront dining and live music at Marea. The kids made crafts daily like picture frames, painted pots and slime. The kids had so much fun they never wanted to leave at pick up time. Daniella and the Paintbox kids club staff was exceptional. Every time we needed them they somehow appeared out of nowhere with a warm smile. They helped arrange all of our restaurant reservations, transportation and childcare with ease. ![]() Our personal butlers, Rene and Scarlet, ensured every wish was taken care of. All the thoughtful touches and anticipatory service far exceeded our expectations. Upon arrival, there were personalized embroidered pillows for each of our children on their bed. Highlights are the spa bathroom with outdoor shower and expansive balcony overlooking the Santa Maria Bay. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed. Shortly after we were whisked away via golf cart to select our ocean view room. Our children were thrilled to collect Montage Merit badges and were delightfully surprised by a toy train arriving full of ocean themed stuffed animals for their choosing. Checkin was a breeze overlooking the beautiful ocean. We were warmly greeted by the gracious staff and offered not 1, but 2 welcome drinks. From the moment we arrived we felt immediately at home in this serene and tranquil resort. My family cannot wait to return! This is a top-notch resort by all accounts, including attentive service, gorgeous property, amazing amenities, delicious food and overall wonderful experience. ![]()
