4.53812 reviewsWe stayed at Solmar Resort in Cabo San Lucas from June 30 to July 3 and had a great experience overall. The location is quiet and scenic, with ocean views and easy access to town. The staff was friendly, our room was clean and comfortable, even though the decor is a bit outdated. The pool area was a great spot to unwind. For the price, the room offered excellent value, especially given the location and amenities. While you can’t swim at the beach due to strong currents, the resort made up for it with a peaceful atmosphere and solid service. We'd happily stay here again for a relaxing Cabo geta…
Let me preface this by saying: most of the 5 stars reviews you see online are actually about Grand Solmar, the 5 star hotel next door — not Solmar Resort, which is a completely different property and a 4 star hotel. The difference is night and day. Staff With the exception of two employees working at the pool during the day, the staff were absolutely incompetent and rude. The pool bar staff spent most of their time chatting with each other, and only when you placed an order (for example, a glass of champagne) would they slowly start to prepare it — often taking up to 30 minutes and requiring…
Beautiful resort. The service is amazing the majority of the time. We had a few times where the service was slow during the theme nights at different restaurants, but otherwise, our service was amazing. The food was delicious and the drinks were good. We got to see whales, seals, schools of fish, and stingrays while we were there this time. We had a 3 bedroom penthouse and enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunsets. The staff is extremely kind. Love the Cinco de Mayo celebration and the shopping market they hosted. This is a definite place to stay when in Cabo!
Planning your trip to Cabo San Lucas
When to go
High season runs December to March: guaranteed dry skies, grey and humpback whales in the bay, and Mexico's highest prices — Christmas and New Year are another level entirely. May and June are the local secret: dry, uncrowded, reasonably priced before the deep heat.
August-September is hurricane season and the price floor: humid heat, real storm risk and serious discounts — refundable rates only. October brings the sport-fishing tournaments, which fill marinas and hotels for specific weeks.
The sea is warmest July to November; diving and snorkelling are at their best exactly when prices drop.
One more season worth naming: whale season, December to March, is not a side attraction here — boats leave the marina all day, the sightings are near-guaranteed, and hotels package tours aggressively. Book the boat independently at the dock or online; the same trip through a hotel desk often costs half again as much.
Getting there and around
Los Cabos airport (SJD) sits about 45 minutes from Cabo San Lucas. Shared shuttles run about US$20-30 per person at 2025 prices and private transfers US$80-100 per vehicle; there is no practical public transport with luggage. Compare the hotel's transfer with independent operators — the hotel does not always win.
Within Cabo, downtown and the marina walk; El Médano is reached on foot along the sand. Taxis are expensive by national standards — always agree first — and apps work unevenly.
The Corridor toward San José is covered by car or by the cheap, frequent local buses on the highway: that is how you reach Chileno and Santa María, the swimmable coves. The Arch is a boat hop from the marina — short rides from about US$15-25 per person in 2025, negotiable at the dock.
Where to stay, zone by zone
El Médano is the town's swimmable beach and its front line holds the most wanted resorts: waking up facing the Arch, sand-floor restaurants and the marina a stroll away. It is the rounded location — and priced like it: our 2026 scan put Los Cabos' typical rate at US$246, the country's highest, with entry from US$31 in the simple downtown hotels.
Downtown and the marina lower the bill and raise the noise: bars into the small hours, sport-fishing docks, walkable life. Good for mid budgets that prioritise going out.
The Corridor — the 30-kilometre highway to San José — is the land of self-contained luxury resorts on private coves: deliberate isolation, golf, and a car ride for everything. The Pacific side (Pedregal, Quivira) gives you the sunsets and open-ocean drama, with a sea for watching, not swimming. The honest decision: without a car or a taxi budget, sleep where you want to live — distances here charge by the trip.
By profile: party and marina, downtown; swimmable beach with kids, El Médano; golf-and-spa honeymoon, the Corridor; sunsets and weddings, the Pacific side; real budget, the downtown hotels five streets from the water — in Los Cabos every block inland discounts dollars. Anyone wanting a gallery town instead of a party should look directly at San José del Cabo.
A note on expectations: this is the least 'Mexican-priced' destination in the country — a beer on Médano costs what it costs in San Diego. Budget accordingly, and treat the inland taquerías as both the authentic meal and the relief valve.
Eating and going out
Cabo prices in dollars and its food shows it: marina-international restaurants, steak menus, resort sushi. Food with roots exists a few blocks inland: the downtown taquerías and marisquerías — minutes from the marina — serve fish tacos and chocolate clams at normal Mexican prices, MX$25-60 a taco in 2025.
The day's catch bought at the dock and cooked at a fonda is the local ritual few tourists perform. The full-stall rule applies here too.
Cabo's nightlife is famous and loud: the downtown party bars have spent decades perfecting organised mayhem. Two streets over, the marina offers the quiet-cocktail version. San José del Cabo, half an hour away, is the elegant night out: art district, galleries and long dinners — Thursday's Art Walk is the night to go.
Booking well
Los Cabos is the most expensive market in our 2026 scans: 65 hotels with real prices, from US$31 but with a typical rate of US$246 — the median says everything about the profile of the supply. The cheap entry exists downtown; Médano's front line and the Corridor live in another price universe.
December to March and tournament weeks, book two to three months out; the rest of the year, weeks. In August-September, refundable rates only — a hurricane on the forecast turns a rigid rate into a dead loss.
Checks that matter more here than anywhere: whether your hotel's beach is swimmable (most of the Pacific side and Corridor are not — El Médano, Chileno and Santa María are), the resort fee and its fine print, and the true cost of moving around from your location. Prices on this page are 2026 observations, per night; verify the live rate in the widget.
Two final pocket notes: nearly everything is quoted and charged in dollars — carry a card without foreign-currency fees and some pesos for taxis and stalls. And Los Cabos all-inclusive tends to exclude more than the Caribbean's: motorised sports, specialty restaurants, even the hotel's own best beach stretch — ask for the exclusion list in writing before choosing between two resorts.
