We had never been to mexico before, and we wanted to make our first time an unforgetable one, and let me tell you.... thats exactly what we got!
Check In: The bell boys escort you out of your car, get your luggage for you, sit you on the cabana, and give you each a round of margaritas! We ran into one problem, we had booked 2 rooms, one king and one queen..... however, they gave us both kings..... it was no problem at all, they fixed it right away..... The bell boy then brings all your luggage to your room for your, and even fills your cooler with ice, no problem! They always were willing to please
The room: IT was VERY roomy- the views were outstanding.... escpeically with all of the gorgeous landscaping.... The beds are outstanding, and you literally just melt right into them! The bathroom is just a dream.... all marble- they were just fabulous.. the maid service leaves you a cute little towel animal every other day, just like they do on a cruise!
Restaurants: The first night we ate at the deli, as we were exhausted from traveling all day.... The sandwiches are GREAT, and large enough for 2 to split- (very reasonable in price as well) I wouldn't recommend eating at the sushi restaurant if you are not going to order from the sushi menu.... they let you pick from both menus, however, if you don't order from the sushi menu, they bring your food from another kitchen and it takes FOREVER---- El Modero (the steak restaurant) was FABULOUS......... we had them cook some fish that we had caught that day, and it was absolutely beautifully prepared- we also ordered ribs, and a steak- and both were just outstanding-- Breakfast at El Meson is definately WAY overpriced.... however, if you are a hilton honnors member, they give you 2 coupons per day- If you have kids i would not recommened paying 21-29 dollars a head if you child is just going to eat a piece of toast or cereal.... i would have to say that the breakfast buffet was absolutely outstanding though....
Service: OUTSTANDING everywhere :), everybody was so willing to please- they put your napkin on your lap for you- everybody was just so helpful, and always willing to please no matter how much effort it would take for them to make you happy!
Transportation: From the airport we took TransCabo! Excellent service... i would definately recommend paying the extra i think it was 30$ to stop at the grocery store...... We filled up on booze and snacks and it was definately a great idea! When in the airport in Cabo, DO NOT STOP until you get outside... if you book with transcabo they will be in an orange shirt OUTSIDE with a sign with your name on it! Timeshare sellers inside will try to get you to think that they are your transportation, however, they will suck you into their schpeal about timeshares!
- the hilton offers a shuttle service for 15$ a person all day to both towns..... personally i think that it was a little rediculous and that it should be free, but you expect to pay at a nice resort like this
Restaurants in town: We ate at Ammorone--- italian food in the marina... it was absolutely excellent......... Right next door is a mexican restaurant called Garcia's! it was excellent, defiantely get a bowl of tortilla soup, THE BEST EVER! we also ate at Mi Casa, authentic mexican, OUTSTANDING- i dont remember exactly what the dish was called... but it was in a white cream sauce and it was just fabulous!
Fishing: We chartered with Cabo Magic for two days, and boy were they outstanding! They can be found at cabomagic.com !
The first day we hit a large school of tuna- and the second day we caught 3, 150+ LB marlin! it was so much fun!
Overall Cabo and the hilton were just outstanding! So eager to please, it was just fabulous
