Last year was a busy one for the tourism business in Los Cabos, Mexico. Despite the unmistakable impact of the H1N1 swine flu virus on the region's
action in the spring and summer, there were plenty of exciting developments, including the opening of five new hotels. You now have plenty of choices
when you head out to Los Cabos, which just happens to be a great place to unwind.
1. Barcelo Los Cabos Palace Deluxe
The Barcelo's doors opened in December 2009, and San Jose del Cabo will never be the same. The resort has 626 luxurious suites, ranging in size from
1,125 square feet to 2,168 square feet ... but this just doesn't compare to the 34 swim-up suites. There are three pools on the property, covering
more than 50,000 square feet, and a water park specifically for children. The spa has 16 private treatment cabins and a hydrotherapy room. So, the
all-inclusive, all-suite resort is designed to impress.
2. Zoëtry Casa del Mar
There are only 32 suites at the hacienda-style beachfront boutique ... and the hotel is designed to make sure the spectacular Pacific sunset is in
full view from across the resort. The resort has been open since the first day of December, and it's main draw might have something to do with the
exceptionally large suites with Jacuzzis, Rivolta bedding and private balconies. Access to the Cabo Real Golf Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones
Jr., probably doesn't hurt.
3. Capella Pedregal
Open since July, the Capella Pedregal has 66 rooms and residences in its Cabo San Lucas Marina location. Enjoy amazing views of the Sea of Cortes and
the Pacific Ocean from this resort, which occupies 24 acres of mountainside and oceanfront property. If there's a view you want, chances are you'll
find it at the Capella.
4. Sirena del Mar (coming in 2010)
This Welk Resort property consists of seven acres of luxury, high on the cliffs above Cabo San Lucas. Every villa has an oceanfront view, and you'll
be able to see whales from December through March. Located in the middle of downtown Cabo San Lucas, you'll have easy access to the city and
nightlife, but it won't be hard to beat a retreat back to unparalleled comfort and seclusion.
5. Grand Solmar Land's End Resort & Spa (coming in 2011)
The latest venture from Solmar Hotels & Resorts, the Grand Solmar Land's End Resort & Spa is planning to fuse old world architecture with
modern style.
