Why travelers love it
“Luxury All-Inclusive Cabo Escape”
Guests praise the tranquil adults‑only design, exceptional service, and dramatic Sea of Cortez views from nearly every room and infinity pool.
Food & drink
StrongDining is a genuine highlight, with standouts like the French wine-pairing at Canto del Mar, Pergola's taco bar, and Sakke keeping repeat visitors coming back. Expect uneven moments: one breakfast venue that fills fast, a shaky Italian outlet, and reservations that must be locked in early.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Canto del Mar French wine-pairing worth the upcharge
- Pergola taco bar and Sakke are repeat favorites
- Chefs personalize anniversary and birthday menus
- Allergies and vegetarian requests handled well
Heads up
- Only one breakfast venue, fills quickly
- Italian restaurant flagged for stomach issues
- Restaurants book up; reserve on arrival
Dining overview
Five restaurants plus a coffee shop and 24-hour in-suite dining, anchored by the buffet at Vista Ballenas, poolside seafood at Dos Mares, Italian at Pergola, teppanyaki at Sakke, and the upscale French tasting menu at Canto del Mar (which carries a surcharge). Reservations book up fast, so plan dinners early in your stay.

Beach
MixedThe beach is scenic and well-kept but not swimmable, with rough surf typical of the San Jose corridor. Walk about 15 minutes toward the Hilton for a protected swimming cove.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Clean, well-maintained sand
- Dramatic ocean views and sunsets
- Swimmable cove a short walk away
- Beach-side dining setups for special occasions
Heads up
- Rough surf, no swimming in front of resort
- Sand is coarse rather than powdery
Like most beaches along the Cabo corridor, the stretch in front of Marquis is wide and dramatic but not swimmable due to strong currents and rough surf. Sand is coarser than the powder you'd find in the Caribbean, and the beach is best used for long walks and sunset views rather than ocean swimming.

Pools
StrongMultiple pools including a standout infinity pool with ocean views, plus attentive servers hustling drinks and snacks all day. The catch: chair-hogging goes unchecked, so early risers win the best spots.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Infinity pool with sweeping ocean vista
- Pool servers consistently praised (Sergio, Jose)
- Multiple pool options across the property
- Room-plunge pools in select Casitas
Heads up
- Chair reservation abuse ignored by staff
- Need to claim a lounger by 8am
Three beachfront infinity pools with ocean views and ample waitstaff service (no swim‑up bar).

“Without a doubt, it's a wonderful place to relax, and the pool is beautiful, one of the best I've seen.”

“⭐☆☆☆☆ Extremely Disappointing — Nowhere Near a 5-Star Resort Calling Marquis Los Cabos a 5-star resort is, in our opinion, extremely generous. Based on our experience, even a 4-star rating would be difficult to justify. This was hands down one of the worst resort experiences we have had, especially considering the premium price we paid. We saw a lot of videos and positive reviews, but our actual experience was far from it. Unfortunately, the problems started on day one and continued...”
★☆☆☆☆
★★★★★
“Despite my repeated attempts to contact Liliana Rivera, the hotel’s manager, I have never received a personal phone call, meaningful follow-up, or even a simple message expressing concern for our well-being. My calls repeatedly went unanswered, and I was unable to speak with her directly. For someone holding a management position, this lack of communication and concern for guests who experienced such a serious medical emergency is deeply disappointing and unprofessional. Rather than...”

“Sharing my experience to warn others!! At my stay at San Marquis in June of 2026 for my 21st birthday, I got severely ill from their food. The resort served me food contaminated with salmonella my first day which resulted me in vomitting every single day I was there. I was bound to my bed as my stomach continued to hurt and I couldn’t keep any food in my system. When I got back to the US, I was admitted to the Emergency room where my kidneys nearly failed due to lack of liquids. My stay at...”

Know before you book
- Beach is not swimmable
- Pool chair-hogging is rampant and staff don't enforce the policy
- Highway noise audible from rooms
- Thin walls and audible plumbing/hallway sounds
What you should know
What to Know
Book restaurant reservations immediately at check-in or the first night defaults to bar snacks. Confirm your booking type carefully: Casita upgrades, holiday prix-fixe menus, and Uber pickup logistics all carry surprises.
high confidence
What you'll enjoy
- Concierge will pre-book dinners and excursions
- Coffee shop open through early afternoon
- In-room dish hatch for room-service cleanup
- Shuttle service to marina for booked tours
Heads up
- No walk-in buffet; reservations required nightly
- Uber pickup located outside main gate, feels exposed
- Holidays may replace regular dining with prix-fixe events
- Reports of reservations canceled days before arrival
WATCH OUT: Seasonal heads-up
- Hurricane season runs June through November, with peak risk in September
- Mosquitoes and flies can flare up after summer rains
- Pacific-side swells make ocean swimming unsafe year-round at this stretch of coast
SJD airport is roughly a 20-minute drive — closer than Cabo San Lucas hotels. Book specialty restaurants the moment you arrive, since the small property fills its dining slots quickly and there's no walk-up buffet at dinner. Tipping isn't required in the all-inclusive rate but is appreciated, and the Canto del Mar tasting menu carries an extra fee that not every guest finds worth it. Watch for surprise 'resort credit' offers at checkout that may actually be charges.
Good to know
- Every room is ocean-facing, but the beach is for walking only — not swimming
- Highway noise from the Transpeninsular is audible from some rooms
- Book specialty dinner reservations immediately at check-in; there's no walk-up buffet at night
- Canto del Mar (French) carries an additional surcharge despite the all-inclusive plan
- Chair-saving at the pools is a known issue — arrive early for a prime spot
- Entertainment is mellow and typically ends by 10pm
