My husband and I were at Los Cabos for the February 21st 2009 week grand opening of Temptation and we just returned from Temptation Cancun on Dec 24th 2009. We are booking a return trip in February of this year and were going to choose Cabos since we believed the service/food/staff/weather were above and beyond at Cabos compared to Cancun. Cabos had no restaurant reservations- Cancun was a disaster with only 2 of the 11 days being able to book a meal Cancun had only 1 bartendar between TWO bars Disco and Sports Bar with 20 people in line at a time it took hours to get drinks at times. Pool at Cancun was cold but warm at Cabos Cancun Weather was humid Cabos dry and great for hair Chinos and Black Magic were at Cabos full time Chinos showed up for only 3 days at Cancun With the recent reviews about Cabos I wonder if it was only amazing then since it was still in the Desire(upscale)/Temptation change. I told everyone in Cancun they had to try Cabos and now I wonder myself. Any more input would be great before we book for this February.
You might want to check out some recent trip reports of Cabos. I don't think they are as favorable as when you went. Also neither Chinos or Black Magic is @ Cabos anymore Scott
We just returned from Temptation Cabo yesterday. This was our 7th trip to the resort, 5 as Desire and 2 as Temptation. We still enjoy everything about the resort. The food and bar service were great, the hot tub is open late and a great place to gather, the rooms and grounds were clean, and everyone on the staff are wonderful. Now, without Chinos and Black Magic, the entertainment was not as good, but Chinos and Black Magic are some of the best, so it was no suprise to me that the entertainment would not be as good. We are going back in May and will continue to go back as long as keep providing a good vacation experience.
Didn't really think the food service was spectacular in Cabos. Cancun has some of the best bartenders and they know how to make shooters. In Cabos it was hard to get a drink and the resort was only at 35%. If you tip, you get in Cancun. I can't say the same for cabos. Came across some pretty lousy bartenders and the drinks...........never got drunk in Cabos even once.
was at temptation los cabos same time as you last year and looks like we will be going to Cancun in mid Feb. I agree that the Cabos was quite good.. other then owners kids showing up late week. Maybe we will cross paths at TTR cancun.. going the 18th to 26th
