We usually get invited to remain in a brand new resort as quickly because it opens so we are able to add it to our critiques right here within the prime supply for luxurious journey in Latin America. Often this implies we’re there once they’re simply beginning to determine the whole lot out although, simply getting all of the staffers used to doing all the precise issues. They’ve additionally simply planted the landscaping and the crops haven’t matured but.
So we attempt to return to the identical resort a number of years later to see it in a mature state, when issues are buzzing alongside like a well-oiled machine and all of the kinks have been labored out. That was the case with Montage Los Cabos: we visited it quickly after it opened, however then obtained to return for an extended keep this 12 months.
This Montage Resort, a Preferred Hotels property, had a bonus from the beginning in that “mature landscaping” a part of the equation. Apart from a garden space for occasions, the grounds are nearly completely landscaped with native desert crops from the area. Elephant timber, not palm timber, agave and cacti, not blooming flower bushes that must be watered every day. So they didn’t have to attend for years for the whole lot to fill in. An added bonus is that the whole lot appears attractive at evening with the well-designed lighting in place.
Montage has a fantastic fame for serving luxurious vacationers nicely and its properties in Hawaii, California, Utah, and the Bahamas often find yourself on these annual lists of prime motels produced by the shiny print magazines which might be nonetheless hanging on. They get excessive marks from editors and in readers’ polls.
This was their first opening in Mexico and apparently it went nicely. Another is on the way in which within the Riviera Nayarit.

I used to be much more impressed with this beachfront Montage resort the second time round. With extra time on property throughout this go to, I obtained to see all of the staffers in motion extra. I had a meal in any respect the eating retailers, went to the spa, labored out within the gymnasium, and went on a dawn kayaking tour. Check out the video tour right here:
As you possibly can see from that video, this resort is perched over a wonderful seaside in a protected bay. There aren’t many seashores the place you possibly can swim in Los Cabos, however that is one in every of them.
The spa right here deserves a particular point out. In a area that’s already residence to half one of the best spas in North America, the one on the Montage is so giant that it has its personal full-sized swimming pool.
The Montage Los Cabos spa is an intensive affair, with its personal sizable adults-only swimming pool enclosed by excessive stone partitions. In a area with heavy competitors, this spa is among the finest. It is sort of a refuge by itself, with cushioned lounge chairs, umbrellas, and some day beds the place you could find some shade. There are 12 remedy rooms, leisure rooms, steam and sauna, and varied hydrotherapy choices in 40,000 sq. toes of area.
There’s additionally a really unique golf course within the Twin Dolphin complicated this resort is in, solely open to residents and lodge company. It seldom will get crowded because of this.
It’s tough to search out something to fault right here until you’re somebody who must be involved concerning the menu costs. The charges are excessive, the menu costs are larger, and you may spend the equal of a month’s automotive fee in case you use a number of issues from the minibar. Considering the excessive occupancy that this Los Cabos Montage enjoys, nevertheless, it clearly attracts a clientele that doesn’t need to sweat such particulars, a crowd that’s used to paying a premium to stick with one of the best of one of the best wherever they go.
