Hello Jeans
Second Judys recomendation on Mar de Cortez ... Nicely maintained. Hospitable accomodating staff. A/C Daily maid service. Nice swimming pool and
very good restaurant on site.
The USA agency that handles their reservations is 800 347 8821 - plz extend our best to Nat.
You can walk to everything depending of course on where your business meetings are. There is a taxi stand out front for ease of transportation needs
as well.
Please stop in and say hello as our office is about twenty footsteps away.
Lori

I went back to read more and found a statement that they are doing pool work starting Aug 15 for three or four weeks. Might not be the best time to
stay there.

Thanks Judy & Lori...I had no idea that rooms could be as low as $40-$55 dollars.
The woman I am meeting is being put up at some place called Pacifica. If I'm thinking of the right place, it's a high dollar resort.
According to the websites, Aug & Sept are discount months, but the airlines raised their prices $200 in August. If we waited until Sept. they
woud go down again...Alas...the timing is now.
Thank you....

I Second Siesta Suites
No pool, but the rooms have kitchenettes. Nice Canuk owners too.

Cabo is a high dollar play land. Might get somebody to sub-out a space off the main path? It'll be fun. Good luck!

Hi Jeans ... you will get what you pay for but it is a nicely maintained property .. you can rent a small fridge for usd $10 extra per night .. good
for keeping yogurt/beverages etc chilled... if tv is a must have they dont .. The building has two floors.
If you decide on Siesta Suites ask for the highest floor possible .. they dont use insulation between floors & if you are a light sleeper ....
Pacifica is a lovely resort - peaceful and not a detail overlooked.
There is no slo season for us .. the less popular months for tourists because of the heat/humidity is very popular for fisherfolk that know the hotter
the air, the hotter the water, the hotter the results are 'usually' on the water.
Let me know if you need anything .. Our staff can assist you with getting around if needed. Lori

Thank you.... | Why don't you stay with the woman you are meeting and let whoever is putting her up pay for
it. Get on the ball dude!

For what it is worth, I have put folks up at both the Mar and Siesta and the only real criticism seems to be that there can be a bit more noise at the
Siesta and the rooms are a bit smaller. Otherwise both are good bets..........

Thank you Judy & Lori
Your posts were very helpful....So it is raining now? I'll have to keep an eye on what is happening by next weekend.
Lori - your offer of assistance is truly appreciated. I'm looking forward to meeting you.

Is the Hotel/Motel El Dorado still on Morelos? Used to stay there and was quite happy. Depends on your standards. Quite a few Mexican traveling
businesspeople would stay there when I was there. Families as well.
I would imagine that the month of September can be inexpensive since historically that is THE month for Chubascos!!!

I think it was 1998 when we stayed there...no pool then...not much of a price increase either!
We enjoyed the place. we did good on tuna right off the Arco and did sashimi for the whole hotel...it was our last stay in CSL...
In fact, we started out at Rancho Leonero, but got blown out by early Northerlies. The folks at RL refunded the balance of our deposit, called Mar de
Cortez for us, booked us a panga, and dispatched Jesse to run us into CSL...what an epic!
Cabo was hoppin' as it was the week before the Bisbee, we stayed in two different rooms at MdC, before they handed us off to the Siesta Suites for a
couple of days, but they took care of our frozen fish for us.

Hotel Dorado is still on Morelos (now, the street that goes up!). My sister was there and paid about $550 pesos for a double. There is a pool,
albeit dirty, and friendly staff.
There is also a newer place across from the CCC on the road to Todo Santos that is between 350-450 pesos/night. Called Hotel Oasis. We stayed in the
sister hotel in La Paz and it was great!
Mar de Cortez is always a good bet, too. Centrally located and the pool! Saludos, Heather

Where I ended up
Since this was a budget trip...I took advantage of a room that was given in the spirit of "the cause".
Club Cabo is a rustic campground with a few small bungalows located a little outside of town towards Costo. As it turned out, it was not real
convenient for me as I was without wheels and it was a bit of a hike to the highway to catch the bus and a long, dark walk after nightfall. But the
location was quiet & shady, the room was clean with a very comfortable bed, tons of water pressure and crankin' AC. The pool was clean and very
refreshing. I was happy...
The walled compound would be secure at night for those with vehicles.....and the price was right. I am very appreciative of my hosts, Martin &
Irene Rozendaal's generiosity.
