Koi Bar, a great place to have an evening drink before or after dinner

I have been Cabo San Lucas three times, but this visit was extra special as I was hosted by Grand Velas for their AAA Five Diamond Award Ceremony. I have never been to an all-inclusive resort and I am forever convinced this is the way to travel. The amount of attention I was given by the staff, the amazing food and the luxury amenities offered, has spoiled me forever. I especially loved their welcoming check-in, a 15-minute massage.

DINING:

All restaurants on property are part of the all-inclusive package including their famed Cocina de Autor – led by 2-star Michelin chef, Sidney Schutte . The 8-10 course tasting menu is tantalizing to the tongue from the delicious tuna bubble to the rhubarb and rose dessert.

Wine and cocktails may be ordered by the glass or there is an optional wine pairing for $50 per person. Lucca is Italian fare at its finest with beautiful views of the ocean creating a romantic ambiance. The Octopus Carpaccio and Cream of Parmigiano Reggiano with Black Truffle Risotto were prepared perfectly with an explosion of flavors in every bite.

Other choices are Frida for local Mexican, Cabrilla for a variety of ceviches, Velas 10 for surf and turf, and Piaf for French gourmet cuisine. Don't miss the breakfast at Azul for a bountiful buffet of pastries, fruit, a DIY Blood Mary bar and a grill station. If you need an after dinner drink, there are many lounges around the resort to quench your thirst.

ACTIVITIES:

This is a family friendly resort, so the kid’s and teen’s clubs are a perfect getaway for them to meet new friends and indulge in fun activities. While the kids are at play, the parents may head down to the Serenity Pool, an adult-only pool for sun-bathing and tasty treats.

Peaceful, quiet morning at the pool

While there, you may be pampered by Alejandro who places cold cucumber slices and a chilled towel on your weary eyes at 1PM. If you hope to see him again, don’t worry he comes back at 3PM to clean your sunglasses and believe me, your sunglasses have never been this clean until he uses his magic potion.

And if you feel hungry, not to worry as you can order tasty food by the pool which is quite uncommon for all-inclusive resorts.

Poolside tacos are the best
