Beach Restaurant - Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal

Great views

There's so many great things to say about the Waldorf Astoria. My husband and I have been coming here since it was the Resort At Pedregal. The switch to Waldorf has added some touches as well. Their points of service here are fantastic. Down to the little things like remembering we wanted a specific salsa with our nightly chips and beer that they deliver which is a really solid touch. We stayed in the Estrella Suite which was fantastic. There are only 6 of them on the property and they fill up so it's not always available. If it is, the extra square footage and double patios are worth it. The firepit by the plunge pool was nice because it kept it from being too chilly at night. We had a view of the ocean, the welcome area and also of El Farallon. We also had a view on the other side of the entrance so you could see pretty much everything also with privacy. I hate when I look to the right or left and I see my neighbor staring in but that's just me. A bonus was being able to see the whales jumping out of the water the first night. There were a couple points I would add that could be improved. Their bed is about a 6 on a scale of 1-10. Just doesn't have that Waldorf feel. When they're cleaning the room too, they just toss the pillows on the floor which was not exactly clean in my opinion. Also, the hot water is intermittent and hard to really get perfect in the shower. It feels cheap. Outside of those few things though, this continues to be our favorite place to stay in Cabo. The staff really makes the experience top notch. You get what you pay for here. Highly recommended!

Dates: Saturday, December 21st, 2024 to Tuesday, December 24th, 2024 Booked Thru: Hilton website less than 3 months prior Room Booked: KING PACIFIC VIEW Upgraded To: KING OCEAN VIEW Room Number: 641 The hubby and I try to take one beachy vacation a year. Since we didn't get a chance to around our birthdays, we decided to do a late bday celebration over my holiday break. I have Hilton Diamond status and have always wanted to stay here. I was doing some random searching and found three nights open for a standard reward redemption at 120k points a night. I had a free night certificate as well, so I thought why not?! Let's do it. Their cancellation policy was 3 months out, so once I booked it, it was a done deal. It ended up being 240k points plus the FNC. I have to admit, I did stalk my reservation a bit. At one point before our stay, we were upgraded to King Deluxe Ocean View, but that was taken back and we eventually ended up with the room above. The room was on the top floor in the back of the resort, so we still had a nice view even tho we were far from the beach. The room itself was a good size. The plunge pool was an awesome perk as we could chill outside while enjoying the atmosphere. When you arrive, you get a welcome margarita. When you get to the room, there is a cute pink bottle of tequila with nuts. (They no longer do clase azul.) You also get a daily delivery of two mini coronas with chips, guac, and salsa. If you're not in the room, they'll leave it there for you to enjoy later. The mini fridge was stocked daily with two each of - diet and regular soda, beer, sparkling water, and I think some kind of juice? They also have glass bottles they refill with drinking water. Upon leaving, you get a sugar cookie shaped like a turtle which was very cute. Since we were celebrating our birthdays, they did give us some cute candles and a bday dessert during our last breakfast. While here, we did Room Service, Pool Service, El Farallon, and Don Manuels. Room service was tasty. We got a cobb salad with lobster, side of chicken, and fries for $107.42. This included tax and a 15% service charge as will all the totals below. Pool service was nice while lounging. Two casa amigo blancos, a macallan 12, and the pedregal burger for $153.27. For dinner at El Farallon, we just went all out and ordered whatever we wanted - a large water, a glass of bubbles, one wine tasting, the oysters and caviar, the surf and turf, and the snapper for $637.97. Afterwards, we hit up Don Manuels for a woodford reserve, macallan 12, and two cigars for $135.96. After we checked out, since our flight was later, we killed some time at DM again and got a mitchers rye and macallan 12 for $81.22. All prices above are in USD. Our personal concierge Danna was awesome. Avail via text any time. We'd let her know when we were gone so housekeeping could drop by. I believe we only did turndown service once. They left a cookie each as part of this service. We didn't finish our tequila bottle, so they bubbled wrapped it for us to take home. Due to my diamond status, we had free continental breakfast every morning. I believe it ended at 11am. The hubs and I did breakfast together the last day. Upgraded to the buffet for two for $52.40. By upgrading you get hot food, so we were able to have eggs, sausage, pancakes, etc. One of the days, I asked if I could get breakfast to go so we could eat it at the beach. They happily obliged. The packed up breakfast included - pastries, fruit, cereal, granola, yogurt, coffee. The service at all the restaurants and bars was amazing. Where the service was lacking was the pool and the beach. I'd have to flag someone down if I wanted to get chairs set up, food / drink service, etc. Also, if you like sitting on the beach, you may have a hard time finding a spot. The hubs and I are beach people, but the beach area for chairs is tiny. There were only about six chairs set up that initial day. When I asked about sitting there, they said there was no more room. We ended up in the pool area. Another day, they had about eight chairs, so luckily we got a spot. (Tho not sure why they couldn't have added two more chairs the first day.) The day we were leaving, they had even more chairs! Idk the logic as to capacity, but it seemed odd to be denied that first day. Don't get me wrong. This resort is beautiful. And most of the service was excellent. But considering this is a beach / pool resort, it shouldn't be that hard to find places to lounge by the beach or pool. They definitely need improvement on that. I did look and see how much this would have cost to book with money and it would have been close to $10.5k. I know we went during the holidays, but I don't think it's worth that price. For value, I probably would have rated this spot 3 stars, but I'll bump it up to 4 based on the beauty of the resort and service outside of the beach / pool. REVIEW #3663

Staying at the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal over Thanksgiving was an unforgettable experience! This resort truly embodies luxury and hospitality, going above and beyond to make every guest feel special. Our suite was breathtaking, complete with a private plunge pool that overlooked the ocean from which we saw whales from every morning and evening. The attention to detail was impeccable, from the comfortable bedding to the artisanal touches in the décor. The welcome margaritas and daily guacamole delivery were delightful extras that made us feel pampered from the moment we arrived and throughout the entire stay. Turn down service included a candle lit suite with slippers and robes ready to relax. The holiday welcome reception and special Thanksgiving dinner were absolutely incredible. The staff created a warm and festive atmosphere with beautiful decorations, live music, and an amazing spread of gourmet dishes that added a unique and luxurious twist to traditional Thanksgiving favorites. It felt like a Michelin-style thanks giving meal we will never forget. Every meal was exceptional. Breakfast at Don Manuel's each morning was a feast, offering a mix of traditional Mexican dishes and more standard fare. There was nothing like waking up to fresh tamales and made to order omelettes every day. El Farallon, set dramatically on the cliffs with waves crashing below, was a highlight of the trip! The seafood was fresh and expertly prepared, the steak perfectly cooked, and the ambience is unmatched. WE started our dinner with an ocean view and a glass of champange from their bubbles bar while our table was being prepared. The live music every night added such a wonderful touch to the resort's already vibrant yet relaxing atmosphere. Whether it was soft acoustic tunes or more upbeat performances, the music perfectly complemented the stunning surroundings. The service was flawless! The staff was attentive, warm, and always one step ahead, making sure every detail was perfect. I truly cannot speak highly enough about every staff member we interacted with. The infinity pools, world-class spa, and access to a beautiful beach made it hard to leave. Every part of the resort is designed to maximize its stunning location, with panoramic views around every corner. You feel like you are stepping into your own little village when you come through the mountain tunnel that leads to the resort. Our Thanksgiving getaway at the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal was nothing short of spectacular. If you're looking for a luxurious escape with world-class service, delicious food, and unforgettable experiences, this is the place to be. We can't wait to return!

We decided to stay for three more nights and our room wasn't available so they moved us to the other side of the hotel where we're closer to the kiddie pool and Sandals. It's way more of a party atmosphere on the side and not quite as luxurious.

We have been fortunate enough to stay here for the last five days and let me tell you, totally worth every penny! From the moment the large black gates opened (need I mention being picked up in an Escalade from the airport), you just know you're in for a luxurious stay of a lifetime. You are driven through a tunnel within a mountain and at the end of the tunnel is the most breathtaking view. Their customer service is top notch. They personalize everything to make you feel the center of attention at all times, they remember your reason for visiting Cabo, and everyone is extremely friendly and helpful. They make you feel at home without being overbearing. You get your own personal concierge. Ours was Francisco and he was very attentive, patient, and went above and beyond to help us with our needs throughout our entire stay. The concierge was always a text away. Each room has their own plunge pool and super spacious. We had more than enough room for our toddler to enjoy the entire week. They make up your room twice daily- sometime in the morning and in the evening. For the evening turn down service, they set up your beverage station to prep you for morning espresso, set up two bottled waters on your bedside table along with a sweet treat. Every afternoon, they dropped off two beers, hibiscus water for my toddler and I as I'm pregnant, and chips n guac. We ate at all the restaurants including room service, tried the coffee shop, got driven via golf cart to the gate entrance to explore outside of the resort, hung out at the kid friendly pool, and experienced the spa. The spa requires an entirely separate review. We weren't able to go to the adults only infinity pool. The beach is just steps away, but it isn't swim able. Everything about the Waldorf Astoria exceeded my expectations. You just feel like you're in a whole separate place, a great mix of luxury, tranquility, and perfect for a relaxing vacation. We will definitely be back.

This place is amazing Decor is a vibe Customer service here is top notch The entire property is beautiful and well maintained When we drove up to the main entrance I gave my name and my reservation information immediately they wished my friend a HAPPY BIRTHDAY and as we drove thru the tunnel we were in awe Can wait to come back

We decided to stay last minute at the Waldorf in Los Cabos and were not disappointed at all. The service here is absolutely unmatched. The care the staff puts into their guests is exceptional and made our stay so enjoyable. It's definitely an experience to stay here and would recommend!

I had the pleasure of staying at Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal on my last night in Cabo, and I'm so glad I did, especially after recovering from food poisoning at another resort. This place is easily in my top 3 resorts of all time, no question. First of all, the entrance is epic. You have to drive through a tunnel carved into a mountain, which was such a cool experience on its own. Then, the architecture of the property, it's absolutely breathtaking. The resort is tucked right into the mountainside, overlooking the ocean, with the calming sound of waves crashing against the shore and rocks. It's the perfect mix of luxury and tranquility. The staff is honestly world-class. I'd rate them 100 out of 10 if I could! When I arrived, they immediately welcomed me, took care of my bags, and whisked me off to my room via golf cart. Talk about service. The location is ideal, it's about five minutes from all the excitement of downtown Cabo San Lucas, so you're super close to restaurants, clubs, the marina, massage parlors, you name it. Yet, the resort feels like its own private oasis away from the hustle and bustle. It's the best of both worlds. One of the highlights of the stay was dining at El Farallon, which is one of the top restaurants in the world. If you're staying here, it's a must. The food, the views, the atmosphere everything was a 10/10. I can't recommend it enough. This is exactly the kind of luxury and top-tier service you expect from the Waldorf brand, and they did not disappoint. From the stunning views to the flawless service and unbeatable location, Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal is, without a doubt, the best resort in Cabo San Lucas. I can't wait to come back!

The service is amazing. Staff was fully bilingual. The scene was great. I anticipate it will only get better as they were just beginning renovations as we were departing. Had a great and relaxing time

So breathtakingly beautiful and romantic, it made this reviewer gasp with awe -- it is virtually indescribable. I have been fortunate to travel all over the world and experience some of the earth's most beautiful hotels, resorts and restaurants, and the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos is among the very best I've ever experienced anywhere. From the moment you approach the resort through a private tunnel beneath the mountains, you'll be transported to an otherworldly setting that challenges and stimulates all one's senses. Quietly elegant, beautifully decorated and lit, it blends seamlessly into the cliffs and the sea. At dinner, you'll sit among the rocks and cliffside, and feel the salty air of the Pacific splashing beneath you. The fires provide light and warmth. Service comes with a pleasant refined smile...and yes, this all comes with a hefty price tag. Be prepared to pay top dollar for a stay or just an evening's dinner and drinks....and it is worth every penny.

Exceptional all around experience. It's expensive but the service is quite detailed and thorough. The location is irreplaceable and you feel safe and completely taken care of from the second you step on the property grounds until you check out. The landscaping is particularly impressive, not something I normally pay attention to here but it's just awe worthy. El farallon is worth it on a special occasion and Don Emanuel's has nice live music every night. Breakfast is nice- but don't expect to be blown away to the flavor profile. The hard product is extremely well thought out and executed to a luxury spec, but isn't cutting edge in terms of design. In general this place will surpass your exceptional and help define what true luxury is.

What a wonderful place! From start to finish our stay was incredible. We stayed for 5 nights the last week in October celebrating our anniversary with our 11 month old. We booked transportation from the airport with the hotel and it was completely seamless. They provided a car seat and the vehicle was a large comfortable SUV. Upon approaching the hotel you are greeted with a large gate and drive through a tunnel with chandeliers. Talk about an entrance! Check-in was a breeze and they delivered our bags to the room without any issues. The hotel is very accommodating of babies. They provided a crib, diaper pale, high chair, and even a little robe for our daughter! The property itself was immaculate and well kept. The service is top notch with multiple staff members greeting us by name. The rooms are spacious and the plunge pool on the balcony was absolutely perfect for hanging out after our daughter went to sleep. We mainly ate at the family pool and bar at Don Manuel's outside of breakfast. With diamond status, you are given complimentary breakfast with an option to upgrade to the buffet for $20. We splurged and upgraded almost every day as the buffet offerings were so delicious and satisfying. Prices are steep, but the portions are generous and delicious. They were perfectly accommodating of my wife's gluten allergy and even sent us home with gluten free cookies shaped like turtles. The location is incredible being a short walk to the marina. A nice touch was having a cold towel and water bottle waiting for me at the gate after going on a walk to the marina a couple of mornings. The gym was large with ample variety of equipment. We have stayed at a few other Waldorf Astoria's and this one was definitely one of the best. The sunsets were also amazing in addition to the vibes with live music at the lobby bar and at Don Manuel's each night. The lobby bar was also unique and charming with comfortable seating and a completely al fresco experience. A nice touch was a daily amenity of chips, guacamole, and two coronitas beers. We happened to be there for Halloween and on that day the amenity happened to be a chocolate cauldron filled with candies and marshmallows. We also were given a small bottle of tequila as a welcome gift. I can't recommend this hotel enough and can't wait to come back for another sunny relaxing vacation!

Came here for our mini moon in 2023. Didn't get any upgrades for being diamond members but even the room we had was pretty great. The pool area is so clean and faces the ocean. Somehow maybe because it's secluded but I didn't see alot of bugs at this resort. Huge plus! food at every restaurant was amazing. Would definitely recommend and would/will go back! Great service, beautiful resort, great amenities, pretty much set the bar for Waldorf properties. So much so we were too spoiled for some of the other ones after staying here. Spa was great but I fell asleep during my massage wish I could have been conscious haha.

View was amazing. Food was sub par at best. Prices are nothing short than highway robbery. $60 for a glass of mediocre Sparkling Wine was a joke. Juice is not worth the squeeze

Nickel and diming you at every turn (even after charging $2000 for the room), this was a horrible letdown after the all inclusive experience at breathless. The plunge pool was much smaller than expected - more like a little fountain. Our room faced the rooftop desert, rather than the ocean. Beach is not swimmable, unlike many other hotels in the downtown area. Be prepared to either Uber out to the town or spend $300 on dinner (you are basically trapped since it's in the middle of nowhere). Look elsewhere for a better vacation!!

*Note: This review if for the overall property and 2 restaurants, as I wasn't fortunate to stay here...yet* The Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal is perched dramatically along 24 acres of pristine beaches and dramatic mountains. You'll enter paradise through the private Dos Mares tunnel, setting the stage for an exclusive and unforgettable experience. There are two restaurants: Don Manuel's: A signature restaurant offering culinary delights where you can also enjoy a drink before wandering to... El Farallón: Cliffside dining with breathtaking views (see my separate review!).

Hands down one of the best locations I have ever been. The service truly leaves you speechless and Alberto really takes care of you. Every staff member is nice and attentive. Everyone says hello. I can't stress enough how attentive the staff is. The room isn't the regular modern and grey and square design. It is more reminiscent of the old Spanish style and the buildings blend into the mountain and the surroundings. The main part of the room isn't the wow factor. The bathroom is bigger than the room. The balcony with its private infinity pool with the view of the ocean makes you want to be in your room, but not in your room. Getting here is quite far from the airport and you do go through the localized area. There is a stark contrast between the local authentic areas and the resort like places. But my gosh it is beautiful here. You can't go into the water and spending 10 minutes here you can tell why. The waves are thrashing. Throughout the night, the waves is more of a white noise to help you sleep. It is humid here so plan accordingly.

Today is the last day of our amazing 6 day vacation. This is our third visit and I'm still blown away by the amazing and attentive service. The staff goes above and beyond. We are seasoned travelers and this hotel takes it to another level. Our 24/7 personal concierge Anali did everything from reservations, calling our valet, golf carts, and even locating my son's missing shoes. Housekeeping was always wonderful and we loved the turn down service with a nice treat after dinner. My kids always looked forward to the cookies before bed. Breakfast was always delicious, I def recommend the upgraded option and I loved their specials of the day and fresh smoothies. The hotel is very well kept and we made many wonderful memories here. Thanks again to the amazing team- Sheu family

This has to be one of our favorite hotels in Cabo! Service and amenities were amazing! Fresh seafood served daily, paradise!

Best resort experience! We were fortunate to spend a few nights At Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos in mid March when the whales were still hanging out. It was spectacular. From the moment of arrival to departure no detail is missed. Staff is warm, professional and helpful. The rooms are beautiful. Love the shower and big tub. Amenities are nice too. The tea time treat of chips and guac and mini Coronas on the balcony by our personal plunge pool made us feel like we were in a Snoop commercial. It was that good. The resort is walking distance to downtown and the marina, so it's really perfectly located. Stay here, enjoy and relax.

The hotel is beautiful and the service is excellent. However, we are EXTREMELY disappointed with our 5 day stay this week. The hotel booked a weekend wedding, which took over the entire hotel. The common areas were being used by wedding guests for the ceremony and party... and we weren't allowed to be there. The signature restaurant, El Farallon, was closed entirely on Saturday and was unavailable for reservations until 9:30 the on all the other days, all due to the party. Saturday night, there was loud music blasting until 12:30 am, with drunk people yelling and carrying on. If the hotel wants to book a hotel wedding that is fine, but it's completely unacceptable to charge the full rate (which is astronomical) and not allow us to utilize the hotel in its entirety. Very unfair. I hope management at Waldorf corrects this, or we won't be returning.

Once you drive through the tunnel it's like you are in another world. You're greeted with a nice cold towel that smells amazing, and a view that takes your breath away. I recommend you try their French toast! It's a must-try here! It's also a big property, so prepare yourself to walk. Also if you can, plan a trip to the spa! You will not be disappointed!

5/5 recommend this resort!! Just know- yes - it will be pricy. But it is so worth it!! The service, the food, the amenities and the safety!! We loved our stay! The employees were so welcoming and made you feel like family. We stayed at the ocean view with plunge pool room and loved the sunset/sunrise views from our pool :) the turn down service always included a little snack and 4pm guacamole + corona service! As for the pool, they have a kids pool and adult infinity pool overlooking the cliffs and Pacific Ocean. Tons of space for everyone and a swim up bar! Amazing! As for food on the resort - we loved Don Manuel breakfast! So much food selections and daily Mexican featured dishes! Loved. They also provide great safety - they always asked where we were going, documenting where we were going and provided car service to anything. We felt very safe and appreciated this (especially for our first time in Mexico) Only downside: be prepared to spend. Everything was based off of "USD" prices and not pesos. Don't expect any deals like your other mainland Mexico destinations lol the coffee shop is very overpriced $13-17 for a latte so be prepared. Bring cash for drivers and tipping. Overall - highly recommend! Had the best birthday here. Thanks Waldorf

This is one of the best Waldorf hotels I had been to. Very unique architecture, especially the hotel room. When I was in my room, I don't feel like I was in a hotel room, feels more like I was in a Mexican grandma's house, feels so homey. Who didn't like the homey feeling? Oh, also a small infinity pool! Great design! And when you walked out of your room then you see another world: neat, still great design, it felt peaceful and elegant, wide open, even the bar and lobby were wide open because of no doors or windows everything faces the ocean. Located in Cabo San Lucas. We stayed in the hotel for most of the time and only spent one day exploring the city/downtown of Cabo San Lucas. I feel more fun staying in the hotel than going out. That's how nice this Waldorf is! The room service is very nice. I feel they clean the room whenever we leave the room, am I wrong? unlimited snack, free tortillas, and soft drinks. servers are everywhere, answering your questions right away, very friendly and they were gentlemen, spoke English well. We always give them tips when we get help from them, like ride us from our room to the lobby, or call a taxi for us. I checked on Google the servers didn't make that much, they mostly rely on tips. Giving some tips could make their day, so don't be stingy about it. Also, they do work hard! Must try their breakfast and dinner. Located in the same place. Breakfast is buffet style, combined with healthy food and Mexican traditional meals, and is mostly fresh handmade. Dinner is delicious band playing music with ocean wave sound around. It's perfect! Must try their spa too, face to the ocean, near the water, their spa ladies are very gentle and nice. Your body just feels so relaxed. The only thing I would complain about is I could hear my neighbor playing music at 2 am. Not sure was their music was too loud or if the wall was not noise-proof. For sure will come back again. 5 stars!!

What an amazing stay for our Honeymoon at the Waldorf! Below is a more detailed review but in summary - incredible service, food, views and attention to detail. Great location and Strongly recommend this property. The planning began weeks in advance with the Concierge (Thank you Fabian!) who helped us plan out 7 amazing days and was extremely attentive to our requests and multiple changes we made. The Waldorf staff greeted us as soon as we got out of baggage claim to coordinate our transportation and we were receiving our welcome drinks shortly thereafter. This was followed by a private tour of the resort and room. Then let the fun begin! All the meals at Waldorf are amazing and will be leaving separate 5 star reviews for El Ferallon and Don Manuel's with additional details. Here are my thoughts on some of the on site activities we participated in: Agave "one in a lifetime" Tasting - great experience that my wife and I both very much enjoyed and suggest. She was worried about drinking 5 tequila drinks in an hour but it is done slowly with incredibly high quality tequila. The experience is private with an amazing view and is informative, educational and fun! 9 course taco tasting at Travesia (inside Don Manuel's). Wow! Another incredible experience - although this can be a shared experience with other guests (which would be fun) we were the only two that participated. It is led by the executive Chef and consists of 9 taco courses and 9 cocktail pairings to give you a taco tour of various regional favorites. We had about 5 staff for just the 2 of us and it was just a wonderful experience. Food and cocktails were fantastic. Strongly recommend this or one of the other private culinary experiences. Pool and Pool Bar - it is really nice that Waldorf has an adults only pool. Although there were not too many children at the resort, we preferred to not be around kids splashing in the pool which was nice. The service is amazing at the pool (as well as everywhere else on site) and we really enjoyed the vibes and spent most our days in the water. We found the atmosphere to relaxed, sophisticated, and friendly. The pool bar is the perfect blend of friendly guests to chat with but not overbearing. We met great people at the resort each day and really enjoyed the clientele at Waldorf. Floating breakfast - I thought this was something my wife wanted to do just for a cool picture but it ended up being a really neat/ fun experience and suggest doing it for one morning on a stay. Service - In general I would consider myself a "service snob". It's something I'm extremely particular about and can ruin a meal for me. With that said, Waldorf exceeded all of my expectations on service. The entire staff could not be more attentive, caring, and fast. Incredibly well executed from the staff at every level and position. They also pay attention to details, remember your name, and are very fun. They certainly made it a very special honeymoon for us. Everyone also speaks amazing English. Be advised - This is a luxury resort and experience, and it comes at a cost. Even if you are using reward points, be prepared to spend once you are on site. Cabo in general is expensive (think Vegas pricing) and Waldorf is no different.

So much to say about the Waldorf. Let me start with the positives! The hotel is beautiful, the location is different than other hotels in Cabo that we have stayed at (looks so fancy due to the mountain), the infinity family pool is wonderful, and the service was decent. Overall 3.5-3.8 stars. The hotel was beautiful, love the fact that they provide transportation to the airport, it was seamless finding our driver and coming to the hotel and going to the aiport, the biggest perk was they walked us to our airline checkout counter upon drop off to the airport and helped us navigate the line-truly a luxury experience. The grounds are clean, but if bugs love you, there are tons of bugs. More bugs here than I have experienced on the other resort side of Cabo (the cape, las ventanas, grand velas, etc). The infinity family pool was lovely and there was barely anyone there. In the late afternoon, this was an issue as bugs were skimming the top of the pool water which was not very pleasant to see. There are a lot of kids' activities and a kid's center. Our kids are too little so we didn't use it but it was nice that they had floaties as well as beach toys. The staff was all fairly nice and accommodating. They do charge a 15% service charge to every bill-do what you will with that information. Food..I was soo disappointed by the food, especially considering the prices!! Maybe I was expecting too much but everything was just mediocre or not good. Breakfast was okay. We had the buffet which was included in our 'benefits'. Lunch-the ceviche was good, my daughter enjoyed her pasta by the pool. Dinners-in room dining-not great, we had to text to get support because no one was answering our calls, dinner at El Farallon was not great, and then we had dinner by the pool-keep in mind that the restaurant closes at 6pm. We canceled our other on-property dinner reservations. Overall, if you can go outside the resort for food, I recommend doing that. The food here was not great. At breakfast, it was a little off-putting that we were left to sit in the sun but at every other table the staff worked hard to move the shade for the guests. Keep in mind we had two kids a two-year-old and a 5 month old... did not want my children to overheat, but no one seemed to care until I spoke up and asked several times for at least some shade for my children. Service-I feel like they do try hard to provide the best service, but you can also tell when they favor others. The staff was friendly, apologetic, etc. But the first night, I was bitten by a mosquito in our room in 5 different places (arm, face, leg etc.) We called and asked to have our room switched. They said there was no availability. We even said we were okay with one king bed, a crib, and roll away. They showed my husband one room, but he wasn't that keen on moving as the view was much farther away. We had a double queen room which meant for some reason rather than a direct view of the ocean we had a bunch of plants and dirt in front of us. I was changing one day and a staff member and I made eye contact as he was outside and I was in the room...talk about awkarddddddd/lack of privacy. House keeping didn't do much. Having kids means there will be messes made no matter how hard I try to prevent it. My daughter dropped some chips and those chips were still in that room day in and day out. Housekeeping didn't even sweep or pick up the chips. Gave me the ick knowing that some things were not being cleaned lol. We also lost an entire day because our flight was canceled. The hotel did not do much to accommodate this which was unfortunate. Overall, our family did enjoy our mini vacation but was not thrilled about the price of food not matching the quality of the food. (Even the free chips and guac were not that good...).

I have not had a better experience with staff anywhere but here. My concierge is Rey Rosas, and he has been absolutely amazing to ensure we have had an amazing experience. It doesn't stop there, every interaction with every staff has been legit unbelievably amazing. My wife and I walked through the city and came back to the gate, my wife mentioned to me about a blister and a staff overheard an brought her a bandaid immediately. The staff by the pool and at each restaurant the small details. They notice your squinting because of sun they come move the umbrellas to cover you, sun moves no worries they saw it before you even noticed. The turndown service has been amazing as well, I cannot tell you how impressed I am. I have stayed at other Waldorf's as well and still this place sets the bar higher than anywhere. We are going to make this our forever vacation home!

From the moment I arrived at The Waldorf Astoria Pedregal in Cabo, I was completely swept away by the allure of this remarkable resort. It exudes luxury and tranquility at every turn, making it the perfect destination for those seeking a refined and serene getaway. Nestled perfectly along the coastal rocks of Pedregal, the property is absolutely stunning. Food connoisseurs will be delighted by the superb culinary offerings at their various restaurants. Each meal was a gourmet adventure, blending the authentic flavors of Mexican cuisine with innovative culinary techniques to create truly delectable dishes. The spa is an oasis of peace, providing an array of treatments designed to rejuvenate the mind, body, and soul. Their exceptional service and attentiveness only added to this wonderfully calming experience. The rooms at The Waldorf Astoria Pedregal Cabo are the epitome of luxury. Spacious, impeccably clean, and exquisitely designed, the accommodation was nothing short of incredible. With daily major domo service (a personalized butler service), every need and request were catered to with the utmost care. The plunge pool on the balcony, overlooking the breathtaking ocean, was a delightful highlight that added an extra touch of exclusivity to my stay. However, this is not a place for those seeking a wild spring break atmosphere. Instead, this is a sanctuary for those who appreciate the finer things in life and enjoy indulging in a more reserved, calm environment. If you're seeking a five-star luxury experience, The Waldorf Astoria Pedregal Cabo is an exceptional choice. The premium amenities, unparalleled service, and stunning location all combine to create an unforgettable stay. I cannot recommend this resort highly enough and am already looking forward to my next visit!

This place is spectacular! From the entrance, where you drive thru Mexicos only private tunnel and end up in paradise, to your private plunge pool. Nothing here has not been planned in every detail. I fell in love with all the beautiful decorations and details surrounding you wherever you go here. They have not left any space forgotten when it comes to beautification. The service is so warm and personal you Will think they have known you forever. Personally! And at the same time it feels genuine. We stayed in room 344, spacious and fabulous views from the top floor. Two patios and your own plunge pool. I am in aww about this hotel, both their amazing restaurants, the super fun champagne bar on the beach "come and go" where you are seated in swings enjoying a champagne taste menu or just amazing bubbles by the glass. We also took a tasting course in tequila that I highly recommend. Thank you so much to all the wonderful staff! I am so blessed to have gotten to meet you and enjoy your hospitality. Miss Rosa muchas gracias por toda su ayuda con nuestra estancia y todos los preparativos para nuestro viaje. ¡Espero verte de nuevo!

Overall, I was most disappointed with the service. We were greeted warmly at check in, but then only saw one of those same people for the rest of our stay, and our stay was only two days. We were at the pool for 3 hours and no one asked us if we needed anything. My husband had to flag someone down to order some beverages. The response was lackluster. The fellow took our order, but was not exactly apologetic or eager. When the bill came, we had been billed for what we ordered plus 4 daiquiris. I think I would have remembered drinking 4 daiquiris (or would at least have been passed out in my lounge chair). The waiter made the correction, but wasn't apologetic. It was just strange. As lifetime Diamond Members, continental breakfast was included. The breakfast was good, but it also was strange. It included coffee, juice, a fruit plate each, a basket of 3 pastries (no choice) for a couple, and your choice of cereal, oatmeal, or yogurt with fruit and granola. The quality of the food was excellent, but it was strange that they didn't just give us access to the cold buffet. The buffet was like a secret society that only those people opting for the buffet could even see as it was in a room in back of the breakfast area. After our first day of breakfast, we learned that we should just ask for what pastries we wanted as, if we left it to chance, we would end up with whatever was selected for us by the waitstaff. I do have to say that the breakfast staff was the friendliest staff that we encountered. We tried to book a reservation at El Farallon for dinner but were offered 5 pm or 7:45 pm. That was disappointing as I would have thought that bookings would have been made at check-in if the restaurant was that busy. In hindsight, I'm glad that we canceled our 7:45 reservation as reviews describe it as tasty but extremely overpriced. We had a fun meal in town that night for less than $20 per person. I'd also like to add that our room #821 was described as "ocean view". It is more accurately "partial ocean view" as it is obscured by another building. And "private plunge pool" is more accurately described as "a plunge pool to be enjoyed only by occupants of the room, but is by no means private being right above the Tortuguita Kids Club, the next building's open staircase, and a camera pointed straight down at it!". If this was a honeymoon, I would have been extremely disappointed by the lack of privacy of the plunge pool. It felt more like a decorative fountain. The pricing for food and spa services was insulting. I paid $46 for a chicken salad! I've never paid $46 for a salad in my life and this is in Mexico where the cost of living is considerably less expensive than the U.S. We switched hotels after 2 days and got two 80-minute massages for less than one massage at The Waldorf Astoria. Name tags would make the staff more approachable as it would be easier to remember people and be friendlier. The hotel we switched to had staff with name tags and it was nice getting to recognize people by name. It just kind of felt like the staff at The Waldorf was over rich guests and I can see why. The hotel room rate is extremely high and one meal probably costs more than the staff earn in a week. Ending on a positive note, the property is beautiful and maintained very nicely. There's a complimentary Coronita (yes, mini Corona) and guacamole service delivered to your room each afternoon. Luisa, the yoga teacher, was very good and I enjoyed her class very much (class included with our stay). The location is great for walking right into town and the marina. In town you can find many options for food and beverages. I liked the approach to the hotel with the tunnel and the gorgeous view at the end. We wanted to try the hotel to see if the price was worth it. I don't think we'll be coming back, but we're also not people who feel that price is no object. If money grows on trees for you, you may love this hotel.

4 nights in Sept 2022 5 stars even with a taste of Hurricane Kay!! Diamond Upgrade #1 Dos Mares Jr Suite #27 (1 night) So there are total of 4 Dos Mares Jr Suites (3 closer to the beach +fireplace, 1 closer to the backside mtn +hammock). #27 has a a separate terrace w fireplace and is the unit closest to Don Manuel's, adult infinity pool, gift shop, etc. The plunge pool has a pretty nice SE view of Don Manuel's + adult infinity pool; however, the southern (most important view) is obstructed due to the beachfront property directly in front. You basically get to see the beachfront rooftop instead of the pacific... That combined with all the trees gives you a ton of privacy (we actually prefer the opposite)... the SW view is of El Farallon, etc. which is partial at best due to the plunge pool's angled privacy shutters, trees, etc. This unit does not have a desk. I would highly NOT recommend this unit. Go for something higher and unobstructed, even if it means you have to walk a little more. The resort isn't THAT big. Diamond Upgrade #2 3BR OV Villa #930 (3 nights) Bldg 900, 3rd floor - Gorgeous 3,500+ sq ft unit, 3BR, 4 Bath (3 full, 1 half), PERFECT for hide n seek! - Located at the eastern tip of the property, closest to the beach. - Perfect for families bc the 900 bldg also has the kid's club (west side) and beach club (front) on the ground flr. - Also super close to the kid's pool (circular) + kid's pool (infinity). - Humongous multi-level couch w 20+ pillows. PERFECT for pillow forts and/or fights! - Indoor dining room table (6 chairs) THANK YOU!!! - Full kitchen with Viking appliances, dishwasher, the works! - Washer/dryer, freestanding water dispenser (hot/room/cold) - Pocket doors which open to the beautiful outdoor terrace: oversized plunge pool w amazing view (although pillars = semi-obstructed), 2 lounge chairs, large table (6 chairs), Viking grill - Each of the 2 guest BRs are QQ + full bath. - Master BR: king + pocket doors leading to outdoor terrace: 2 lounge chairs + breathtaking, unobstructed panoramic view of entire beachfront, leading all the way to El Farallon + beyond - Master Bath: super spacious, 2 separate sinks, closet, water closet, exquisite tub, standing shower, window with beautiful oceanfront view in between shower & tub. - Only thing missing from this unit was a coffee machine which was immediately requested for my SO. Apparently, she can't live without it... I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this unit if you can get upgraded or if you can simply afford it!!! $3,000+/night - Resort welcome drink: margarita (strong!) - Welcome amenities: WA Pedegral beach bag, bathroom amenity kit, tequila (clase azul) can ask to get bubble wrapped to bring home - Comp chips+guac+coronitas/margaritas every evening (4-6pm), not always automatic, can request via text - Turndown service = different Mexican specialty cookies every night - Comp snacks by the pool: popsicle, small drink, fish tostado - Spa Pass: $60/pp (does not require spa treatment, gives you all day in & out access to sauna, steam room, ice room, whirlpool, etc.) - There were floaties & toys at the kid's pool (circular) at various times of the day. Ask if you don't see anything. Water toys from the kid's pool (circular) CANNOT be brought to the kid's pool (infinity). There are different toys around the kid's pool (infinity) -- shovels, buckets, etc. - Free sunscreen at all pools + unlimited waters in a bucket of ice. (super convenient) If you get sick of water, you can always bring drinks from your room to chill. We were pretty big fans of the apple juice & peach/mango nectar juice. Also unlimited refills (just text). The highlights of this resort are obviously the immaculate grounds and the spectacular service. The staff acknowledges you by name, learns your preferences, and stops/waits until you pass. They're super friendly/hospitable and ALL of them treat you with respect. The culture at WA Pedregal is second to none and it certainly shows! **Make sure you remember to collect names (first AND last!) from the start so you can easily tip them via room folio before/during checkout!** THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR GRACIOUS HOSPITALITY. WE NOW KNOW WHY WA PEDREAGAL IS RATED A TOP 100 RESORT IN THE WORLD! YOU MADE US FEEL SPECIAL, AND YOU MADE US FEEL AT HOME, ESPECIALLY WITH THE KILLER 3BR UPGRADE!!! MUCHOS MUCHOS GRACIAS!!!!! WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK, JUST NOT IN SEPT OR OCT! =D

Another great time here! We did the cocktail class again and made some delicious cocktails while having a lot of fun. We enjoyed dinner at Don Manuel's as well but would prefer to return when there isn't a guest chef in the kitchen. Staff is very attentive and resort is beautiful!

This location is simply exquisite. Everything they could do to make my birthday trip memorable, they did. My friend and I were beyond pleased with the location, our suite, personalized concierge, FOOD, manicured grounds, and every attention to detail paid during our entire 4 day, 3 night stay. Our king suite was fabulous!! If all we did was stay in the room, I would have been happy! 2 spacious bedrooms (one with a fireplace), 3 bathrooms, 2 balconies with an infinity pool, amphitheater-esque seating in the living room, and a large chef's kitchen (with drinks stocked in fridge)-- all stunning. The turndown service was excellent, and staff provided daily sweet and/or savory treats. We chose the breakfast buffet in the mornings-- great variety of options: charcuterie, omelette station, fruits, pastries, additional hot and cold stations. We toasted on the champagne terrace (very nice) and dined at the resort's restaurant, El Farallon one evening during our stay. Everything about our dining experience was perfection, from the view to the service, and of course the food. With every course we experienced bold and delicate flavors, and fresh seafood pulled right from the ocean that our table overlooked. Be sure to order the ceviche and gazpacho!! Our personal concierge took care of every need, from car service to excursion and dining recommendations in Cabo. On our last day we were given a number of parting gifts and had a staff member waiting at the airport who personally escorted us all the way to our gate/lounge. 5 stars for the resort itself and 5 stars for the impeccable service. It's truly the place to go if you're seeking a luxury experience. PS-- be sure to checkout their sea turtle nursery!!

Beautiful resort right on the beach with white beachy decor that gave me an aztek vibe. You drive through a tunnel to get inside and they have a beautiful tree decorated with local Mexican ornaments at the front. There are a few bars / restaurants inside, and if you aren't staying at the resort then you have to call ahead and make a reservation. We did the full bar downstairs but there is also a champagne bar right on the beach that had a bunch of swings as chairs but only serves champagne. They have plentiful cocktail options and they were all pretty amazing. We got the following: - the perfect mezcal martini: probably my favorite drink since I love mezcal and it wasn't too sweet - Carajillo eapresso: great twist on an espresso martini - I've never had one with tequila but you couldn't tell and it was delicious (not creamy) - Pina colada: super refreshing and tasted homemade - Pink kiss: very pretty but tasted like a strawberry daiquiri and was too sweet for me - Whiskey smash: tasty whiskey drink, a little sweet - Cucumber and jalapeño: very spicy! We also got the chips and guacamole/salsa which was a good portion size, the cheese and marmalade plate which was a pretty standard cheese plate, and the short rib empanadas which were tasty but small and come with 3 empanadas. The service here was great and everyone around the resort was very friendly. Would definitely recommend stopping in to explore the resort and take in a sunset on the beach.

Great place to stay! Try the tequila tasting! The beach view is phenomenal! Service was next to perfect!

We had an absolutely incredible stay here in January 2020! The resort is stunning, the service is unparalleled, and we couldn't have had a better stay. This review, however, is some additional gushing praise for Don Manuel's!! While one of their seaside restaurants has an incredible sunset view, we were really blown away by our dinner here. The beef tenderloin was some of the best beef we've ever had; the fish was also stellar. A must-visit during your stay.

Amaaaaazing Hotel and Resort!10/10! This is probably one the best Waldorf's we've stayed ever! Amazing service! Gorgeous Property! Fantastic Room! People who work there are superb! We definetily recommend this place! If you are trying to decided If you should go or not, you MUST go and see this place! Also it took only 2 hours of flight from Los Ángeles! Rooms are top notch! Every room has plunge pool, which makes you feel like you r in Santorini Greece, Maldives or Bora Bora! 10 out of 10! Could even gove 12/10

Simply unsurpassed service, attention to detail and quality! Beautiful and tranquil grounds spectacular views!! Love this place going back for sure!!

One of my favorite resorts, the property here is majestic from the tunnel entrance to the immaculately maintained grounds and pools along a beautiful stretch of beach. The service is unparalleled and they definitely go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and taken care of. The place is well known and pricy, but both for good reason. A newer dining experience I got to enjoy this time was Travesia, a 9-course taco omakase menu that was an amazing experience. Every taco was thoughtful as they take you on flavors across Mexico, and the drink pairings were spot on (and generous). Hopefully will be back in the near future!

Very nice! Enjoyed it and they are attentive. The pool staff was amazing. The "butler" isn't the same as LVP but it's the concierge staff. They're very helpful!!!. The food at Crudo by the pool has some amazing food I'll continue to crave. Didn't get a glass heart to add to our collections but that's ok . Got a lot of swag from other hotels to advertise for them. Not here, but does that mean I would not come back? No! Not at all. Great trip and even more so if your using points, which still means you spent somewhere. But wondeful perk. The front desk and all the peeps are great! Just want to make sure that's known. They make sure your taken care of. I'm being picky here cuz it's rated 5* - worth staying here!!! For sure

Outstanding is an understatement. This resort is incredibly professional, beautiful, clean, well taken care of, and everything is done for you. The staff could not have been more accommodating, kind, or professional. It is on the most beautiful property and close enough to walk around in town. The food is to die for and you feel the most relaxed you have in your life. We will be back.

One of the best resorts I've ever stayed at! Exceptional service and the most relaxing experience! You won't regret staying here! I highly recommend their Spa, everyday breakfast and the new coffee lab by the lobby area! Me and my family loved and enjoyed every minute on a whole weeks vacation here! Oh and don't forget to book dinner reservations at El Farallon! They offer fresh Catch of the day entrees here.

Disappointed. Do not get me wrong, it's a beautiful property but the juice is not worth the squeeze. The property is almost too big, our room was quite the uphill hike and far from amenities. I also did not like paying these prices ($2g a night) and found it kinda a hassle to get seats at the pool. They allow guests to come early to the pool, throw a magazine down on the best chairs and basically at 8am there are no seats?? Also the pool scene was a little too quiet for us. We like some music in the background. We had dinner at El Farallon one night and it was lovely, I would recommend highly. The other nights we ate off campus and returned to the bar which had an amazing live band, don't miss out on this! The lobby at happy hour time had amazing live music has well. I think the resort needs to refresh the rooms a little, they are starting to show their years. The spa prices are totally insane. My husband had a 80 min massage cost $512?! I did a plain manicure (not gel) cost $110! I also did not like the open shower, I don't know why resorts do this but I hate being cold showering. When we left I had packed the clase azul shot glasses, I misunderstood that they were complimentary for us to take, do not do that...it was the bottle that was complimentary - we were getting into our car and hotel management stopped us and asked for them back on the spot - so yeah, that was a little embarrassing. My husband and I have stayed at some of the best hotels in the world and this just did not live up to expectations. For instance at Le Sirenuse in Positano, it's pricey but the hotel amenities are worth it such has daily boat rides at sunrise and sunset, local tour, wine tasting... all included. Back to Waldorf... we won't stay again, there are so many options in Cabo. Esperanza is in my opinion is a better bet. If you do choose Waldorf request a room closer to main part of hotel.

Be careful when you book your room! You may think you're getting a plunge pool with ocean view, but you may not. If they are fully booked there is no way to change rooms and you are stuck with a room that isn't what you thought it was when you reviewed photos online, booked and paid. Photos on line show plunge pool with ocean view. Not all units have plunge pool ocean view. Specify to be certain. No other rooms were available. So we paid handsomely for an upgrade. On another note. The resort is stupendously beautiful and the staff is the best group of people I have ever encountered at a hotel (except general manger/front desk booking). They are genuinely happy to help and serve. I couldn't have asked for anything better from them. Food was also stellar. I will be back with the knowledge of exactly which room number to reserve. Hope this helps you avoid our snafu.

Highly recommend. Everything from the staff, food, room and the resort is top notch. If you're looking for a relaxing vacation and not a party scene this is the place to go. Worth every penny!! Can't wait to go back. Thx Waldorf Cabo for always making our trips so memorable.

Had an absolutely delightful time here! The staff was awesome, all of the restaurants were fantastic & the room was beautiful. I really loved the infinity pool on the balcony of the room. I could have stayed forever!

The team here always do an incredible job during each stay. Michell, has gone above and beyond as well as the staff when we have stayed here taking into consideration our special occasions we have been celebrating as well. They even left us a written note and welcome sweet when checking in. We have stayed in the dos mares Jr suite which was incredible. All rooms at the resort regardless of the location will have a beautiful view for the most part, and every single one has a balcony pool of some sort! They always have events such a live music happening on property, and staff is extremely attentive. I understand why they are rated the number one resort in Mexico. All amenities are also replenished and room service twice a day, and every guest receives a custom Azul tequila bottle during each stay. The pools are excellent and (must be) as the ocean is not swimmable due to strong waves. You cannot go wrong with any of the rooms or decision of staying here. Once you come once, you will be back every time!

A Splendid Property situated on the pristine private beach of Pedregal. The Waldorf Los Cabo is quiet and secluded offering guests an outstanding experience. In addition to the excellent property, amazing rooms, and breath taking views of the soothing waves, the property's staff has an amazing level of attention to detail and service. The staff is ultra friendly and everything from the moment you arrive screams top of the line service. This property was just down right incredible. As Hilton Diamond members, we were given daily complimentary continental breakfast which is more than enough. On one occasion, we upgraded to the buffet and the food was great. The continental breakfast of a basket of pastries and a parfait or similar was tasty. The crab eggs benedict was truly delicious! This place made a special week even better!

So first off, I did not stay here. I proposed to my fiancee on the beach next to it and had a dinner reservation at El Farallon right after. El Farallon is cliff side restaurant that is part of the hotel. This review is really about the amazing staff and service. The food and beverage coordinator, Selene Sotomayor coordinated the proposal with me while I was still in the States. She was super helpful, especially since I have never been there. She offered advice and the different options they had. She helped me put flowers on the table and prepare a bouquet for my fiancee. She helped with getting the photographer access to the property so she can wait in hiding to capture the proposal. She also coordinated the rest of the staff too. When our car arrived, the staff, who I think was called Alberto, that greeted us knew my name, and led us to a table at the Don Manuel bar reserved for us, right in front of the live music. The restaurant waiter also knew my name. Because we arrived late, we didn't have time to have a drink and listen to the music, although I wouldn't be surprise if the musicians knew too. I had hurry my fiancee and her daughter (now my stepdaughter) to the beach for the proposal and hidden photographer and photographer session. During the time we were on the beach, Alberto was standing at the restaurant watching and keeping track of what went on! He was a dedicated staff for a certain amount of time. He actually radioed Selene what was happening from afar. She said yes! Haha. It was great finally meeting Selene in person when I got to the restaurant as well. Walking through the property to get to the restaurant, I must say the attention to detail is fantastic. The plants and florals were immaculate, they even had zen sand pattern in the sand surrounding the plants. The cliff wall is majestic, and the roaring waves crashing into the rock wall beneath the restaurant is just awesome. You really feel transported into a different world while there. I cannot wait to get back, this time to stay at the resort and enjoy more of what it has to offer. Just based on the service and of course amazing food, I know it must be an incredible experience.
