Villa La Estancia
Hotel Information: Although children are permitted, this condominium resort primarily caters to adults. Guests have full access to an adjoining family-friendly resort, Villa Del Palmar Resort & Spa, which features complimentary activities and a children's club.
Amenity highlights: Flanked by sundecks with lounge chairs and umbrellas is a two-level, freeform pool with gentle waterfalls, garden islets, and a swim-up bar on each level; the pool extends 73 meters (240 feet) through a central garden. Three 12-person spa tubs bordered by lawns and gardens are arrayed along the beachfront, and a lobby-level fountain-and-garden courtyard contains two 12-person spa tubs. (Spa-tub minimum age is 12.)
Insider tip: The main section of Médano Beach lies 400 meters (437 yards) south of the resort and offers water sports and beachfront restaurant/bars.
This Cabo San Lucas resort offers 158 guest suites and villas in sand-colored buildings of 4-8 stories, with red-tile roofs that form a narrow, elongated U-shape down a gentle slope to the beach. Furnished balconies or ground-floor terraces provide views of a central garden and/or the Sea of Cortez. Contemporary decor includes marble floors, pale-olive walls, white ceilings and crown molding, muslin drapes, white and bleached-wood furniture, light-caramel-colored cabinetry, plants, and Mexican ceramic bathroom accessories. Each unit includes a furnished entryway behind a wrought-iron gate, with suite or villa doors opening off the entryway.
Designed as condominium units, one-, two-, and three-bedroom villas feature jetted tubs, separate living/dining rooms, stacked washer/dryers, cassette/CD stereos, and fully equipped kitchens with ice-dispensing refrigerators, four-burner ranges, microwave ovens, dishwashers, garbage disposals, and three-stool breakfast bars. Suites form part of full villas, share balconies or terraces with them, and are furnished like hotel rooms.
Wood-paddle ceiling fans cool balconies and terraces as well as complement suites and villas' air conditioning. Beds include comforters and throw pillows. Flat-screen televisions offer music channels. Villas include cassette/CD stereos and VCRs. Rental VCRs are available for suites.
