Excellent
I just got back from Cabo and after six trips have found the right resort/hotel for me. Playa Grande has the beach, ocean, crashing waves, location (walk to downtown or take shuttle) and luxurious accommodations for a good price ($970/week). ...

I had a one bedroom condo with a kitchen. It was, overall, a good experience. It was a pleasant facility and they had attentive help. It was somewhat a long but easy walk to the center of the town. It was close to marina activities. They had limited parking at the hotel, but it was never completely full. They had a very nice beach. It had a smaller pool complex than some local resorts, but larger than others. The pools were well maintained. As with everywhere in Mexico, it seems to be a more or less constant state of construction. Teaser gifts or goodies for timeshare presentation were less than most others. The kitchen was functional but limited. It had very cheap pans and utensils. There was a countertop microwave, but no oven. There was also no dishwasher, though the maids did dishes. No outdoor grill was available. They had a good deal on drinks during the happy hour. My advice is to get out of town for a bit more Mexican experience. We enjoyed our day trip to Todos Santos. The souvenirs and the crafts are cheaper than in Cabo. We followed the locals to a sidewalk taco stand for lunch. They had good, cheap local food.
The security people at the gate actually talk to each group coming in, car or walking, rather than wave through anyone in a rental car that looks foreign. The security staff at the front entrance and walking the grounds was pleasant, attentive and helpful.
I am very likely
to return to the Playa Grande Resort.
I would definitely recommend it to friends.

This resort was state of the art and fun for the whole family. The rooms were great and ours had a King Size bed and the kids slept on the sleeper in the "Living Room". It was nice to have seperate rooms. Full kitchen was nice so we did not have to eat out at each meal. Great views of the Pacific and the beaches on this side of the bay are much less crowded. Less venders trying to sell you stuff also. The pools were great and clean and the kids had the best time. You can even have your own private showing at their indoor theater. The did not forget about anything at this resort. Short walking distance to downtown and CaboWabo!

This hotel is a jewel! The service is first class, the staff so accommodating and eager to please!
The Brigantine restaurant, unfortunately, has not had sufficient press as yet, but it is a romantic and beautiful place for a delicious dinner. We had dinner there on our last evening in town, and loved the live trio playing all evening, as well.
I have been to this hotel three times. I complained the first time because they did not have sufficient internet access. When I returned, they took me on a tour to show me the new internet access! When they ask if there is something more they can do to make your trip more special, they mean it.
The accommodations themselves are very comfortable and more than spacious as compared to others where we have stayed.
The pool is lovely and kept very clean. There are several pools so the various ages can congregate as they desire.
I can't say enough good things about this hotel. I complained about the air conditioning sticking, and within an hour I had a new thermostat!
I don't know how you beat that for service, but I'm not going to try: I'm going back as soon as I can find a way to get there!
I'm giving it a 9 of 10, only because you cannot really swim on the beach due to the steep drop off. However, we found some great swimming beaches nearby as well, thanks to some advice from the concierge.

This is the nicest place to stay in Cabo. Its away from the business, but close enough to walk into town and the beach. Its on the pacific side of Cabo. You cannot swim in the ocean, but with 7 pools there is no need. They have wonderful service, and very well kept grounds. Its the best!
