Our family had a fantastic stay at The Club at Solaz. The entire property is absolutely stunning. Modern, yet warm and perfectly blended into the natural desert landscape. Although I’m not usually a fan of modern décor, the design here felt thoughtful and organic. We stayed in a two-bedroom villa, which was perfect for our family of four. While the listing says it sleeps eight, I’d say four (or maybe five with young kids) is more comfortable. The kitchen was great, though it lacked an oven. Bathrooms were spacious, and the only downside was the narrow living room. The sofa could definitely be larger for family movie nights. We visited in March, and the weather was spectacular. We never needed air conditioning, just ceiling fans and open patio doors. We had no major issues with traffic noise. While you can hear it slightly from the patio, it’s more like a hum, not disruptive at all. The staff was excellent. Every guest is assigned an ambassador who handles everything via text, from dinner reservations (including off-site restaurants) to activity coordination. Ubers were easy to use and safe, with the hotel offering golf cart rides to the entrance. The resort gym was basic but functional. Our kids (14 and 11) enjoyed the teen room, though it closes at 7 PM, which we found surprisingly early. We’d love to see it stay open later to give adults more evening downtime. There also weren’t any spontaneous evening activities like live music, which could be a nice addition. The spa was beautiful and serene. My massage was excellent. While not huge, the spa felt luxurious and relaxing.
We enjoyed a wide range of activities both on and off the resort including camel rides, ATVs, a yacht cruise, a hike, art walk in San José, horseback riding, jet skiing, and more. The beach was swimmable during our stay and gorgeous. Dining overall was great. Lunch options were a standout. Most dinners were very good, though a couple of restaurants (like the Italian one) felt underwhelming, especially for kids. I’d love to see more kid-friendly dinner options, like extending the lunch menu into the evening. Still, we give the dining a solid 4 out of 5. Regarding becoming a member, we were approached early on and did the tour. The first rep was lovely, but the follow-up sales pitch was too aggressive and unnecessary. We had a few minor complaints during our stay. One evening, housekeeping began cleaning our room at 6 PM, which was quite late, especially since it was just one staff member handling a space that takes over an hour to clean. This delayed our ability to shower and get ready for dinner, and we ended up running late as a result. A few things in the room were not working a day after we arrived—the TVs, phone and doorbell all stopped working. To their credit, the staff responded within 24 hours and resolved all the issues. There was no ability to cast from a phone to the TV beyond playing music, which we thought was odd for a five-star resort. I highly recommend that they allow guests to cast from one's phone to watch TV and movies.
In all, The Club at Solaz delivered an exceptional experience. Beautiful setting, thoughtful service, and great amenities. We’re already considering returning in December and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cabo.
