Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos

My wife and I stayed at the Grand Velas Boutique October 1 through 5 to celebrate her birthday. It was the best trip we have taken together, and I want to be specific about why. The food is the real thing. We ate at Velas 10, Loto, Cocina de Autor, and Frida, and every one of them delivered. Cocina de Autor is a Michelin star tasting menu included in your stay, and it lived up to that. Loto on the Boutique side was the surprise of the trip. Frida is the best Mexican food we have had anywhere. The artisanal chocolate tasting was a highlight and the host, Ulises, made it fun and personal. The everyday meals were just as good as the dinners. Erma took care of us every morning at Del Mar for breakfast and remembered how we liked everything by the second day. Omar at Roca made lunch by the pool something we looked forward to. Francisco, our pool server, made sure we were fed and never had an empty glass the entire week. These are the people who made the resort feel like home. The spa is exceptional. We did the water ceremony and a ninety minute couples deep tissue massage. The spa butler walked us through every step and the therapists were as good as any we have experienced. The reason to stay here is the service, and for us that was our personal concierge, Omar Olvera. Omar handled our dinner reservations, arranged the chocolate tasting, and answered every message quickly, including on a morning he was not even scheduled. On my wife's birthday he arranged a turndown with chocolate covered strawberries waiting in the room after our Cocina de Autor dinner. That was the moment she will remember from this trip, and Omar made it happen. We will come back, and when we do we will ask for him by name. The Boutique is adults only, quiet, and small enough that you are recognized by name within a day. The rooms are beautiful, the pool is never crowded, and the whole resort feels calm. If you are celebrating something and you care about food and service, this is the place.

My husband and I LOVED LOVED LOVED Grand Velas Boutique Hotel Los Cabos. From the moment we arrived, we felt taken cared of - the staff was super attentive, gave us champagne while we waited for the staff to provide our checkin papers and keys. I have the Sapphire Reserve card, which allowed us to a free upgrade and a welcome gift in our room when we arrived (Tequila and delicious fruit basket). The room already had the AC running so it was comfortable the second we walked in. They have a dyson hair dryer in the bathroom (fancy) and a good makeup desk area for us women (or men) to get ready. THE FOOD....OMG....NO COMPLAINTS! You are getting what you pay for. If we didn't like a meal, it wasn't b/c it was bad, it was b/c of our own tastebuds, but literally everything is delicious. Octopus, sushi, steak....and if you did have a concern, they were quick to address it. The service here 'anticipates' your needs...its as if they want to avoid you having to ask them for anything to make your stay comfortable, you should already and always be comfortable. During morning buffet, when I accidentally got my sleeve wet reaching over for fruit, one of the staff already was walking towards me and asked me if they could take my cover top and rinse it, b/c they saw my mishap happen. I was like, "Oh wow, yes pls. thank you so much, Alma!" Our hotel Conceirges and Pool Conceirges...they were great. even answering my random questions on where I could find xyz. And the shuttle going back and forth between the main resort and adults only...such a seamless process...never felt like you were waiting in a crazy line or anything. Maybe because we went during an off-season the place wasn't crowded...but that is what made it even better. We did not feel like we were part of a crazy crowd, we felt at total peace and were treated so good. Regarding cleanliness....practically spotless. Never did I walk anywhere on the property at any time and think, "when was the last time this area was cleaned?" And because it was an adults only, the noise level was not even an issue. I cannot say enough how much we loved our stay. Trying to go back again before the end of the year if time permits. Can't wait to return!

The resort is breathtaking. The service was more than we could ask for. We can not wait to come back!

The Grand Velas Boutique was fabulous. The hotel is beautiful, the food is out of this world and the staff is awesome. Especially Gaby. Thank you for taking such good care of me and my husband. You made his birthday trip an awesome experience.

Five star all the way! From the moment you arrive until you leave, you are bringing pampered and taken care of. The attention to details, the quality of the bedding, the food, drinks and most of all the hospitality shown by every single staff member you come in contact with. Bravo, Bravo, Bravisimo!!!
