ホテル ヴィラズ マール イ アレーナ(Hotel Villas Mar y Arena)

Stopped enroute from Colorado to San Jose del Cabo looking to spend some time whale watching. Had a room on the water - excellent. Had a dinner, breakfast and lunch - all very well prepared. A must is the baked Chocolate clams - fantastic. The whale watching was very good. Knowledgeable and courteous captain (Henry). Overall a great stop! Will do it again with family members.

A nice hotel in a remote location. Staff is friendly. Amenities close by. Good value.

We had a lovely waterfront room with comfortable beds and a hot shower. The restaurant on site has great food and the service was very friendly and accommodating. We will be back!

Well part of the disappointment with the hotel was the disappointment with the visit to San Carlos - Magdalena Bay. Guess I am guilty of imaging everything you see on you tube portrays the usual experience and whales did not surround our boat nor leap into the air or bring their babies nearby for a close up photo op. Back to the hotel. Barking dogs mush of the night. There was a leak in the bathroom either from the sink or toilet with resulted in a trail of water spreading over the bathroom floor via the grout line. Prefer to think the sink but? Large room, a suite? King bed. Restaurant on site for dinner and breakfast.

We used this property as our home base between an afternoon and morning of whale watching. We arrived for lunch and had a very plentiful meal for our group. The food was very good and the service was friendly. Our afternoon of whale watching was spectacular. Not to be missed! We had a bonus and saw dolphins on our way home. We had a very good dinner before turning in for the night. Our cabin had a fantastic view of the water with a nice porch with some weathered furniture. The interior of the cabin was clean and large with a very campy decor. The bathroom was very large. Breakfast in the dining room was very good with the same friendly vibe. The property is rustic and shared with RVs that are onsite.

Probably the best in San Carlos but was not the most comfortable. They did give us a separate modem to make sure we had internet. if you want to see the grey whales you can touch, make sure you come in February. They weren’t there yet for us.

The hotel offers tours to watch whales, dolphins and sea lions. It was really nice to stay there.

I booked a room in May of 2022 for Nov 2022 from the Hotel's website and received a conformation email along with other emails. I also called and talked to the hotel to verify and discuss tours and validate my reservations. Then 6 days before my trip, I received an email saying my reservation was canceled. I called and was not happy with their response, they said I could change my dates or they could put you up at another hotel, come hear and we will walk you over. I didn't trust them at this point so I booked another hotel thru ***********.

Pleasant location just out of town which is a plus
