If you want a nice quiet beach with calmer waves and no vendors go to Chileno beach which is maybe 10min down the road.

Chileno Beach and Santa Maria Beach are minutes away.

We went to Chileno Beach and enjoyed it greatly.

We did both and on different days went to Lover's Beach, San Jose, Chileno Beach (great snorkeling and the hotel will provide a snorkel mask,

Chileno Beach and Cabo Pulmo provided awesome beach experiences and we will definitely return to both locations.

The restaurant is overpriced and no even tasty.

Paid over 1,000.00 for mold in the shower, bathtub and kitchen sink.

although Cabo is getting mre expensive each year.

There is only one restaurant at the resort and 2 bars, quality of food and drinks below average and expensive for what you are getting.

There is one restaurant on the property…great food and amazing service (a little pricey).

Restaurants there are over the top pricey and the food does not justify this.

For groceries to avoid the restaurants, there is a La Comer close by (5 USD for Uber each way).

but we had cab fare for nine people to and from Marina that got expensive.

Ubers come straight to the hotel and cost anywhere form $6 - $15 to go to downtown Cabos San Lucas.

though that would have paid me $150 out of the resort fee).

My husband and I are PAID OFF Welk Owners.

The restaurant charged over $5.00 for diet coke.

Originally thought we’d have to pay $135 USD per massage for an hour and a half massage

I saw a negative review "Avoid at al costs!!!".

Room quality is poor old, outdated, and dirty.The restaurant (only one available) at the property is expensive and serves horrible bland food.

It is best if you can reserve an oceanside room.

The hotel staff is not helpful at all, and the staff at check in were less than willing to help ensure we were happy with our room.

Resort itself is fabulous, basic rooms are great (microwave/convection for baking), air con works great, pool area and views of Cabo fantastic, staff is great.

The view to the Cabo Arch from infinity pool is beautiful, rooms are ok.

The room is so darn, mabe to hide the imperfections in the room.

Beautiful rooms, great facilities, attentive staff..,and the best view in Cabo!

Just shut down this room is my suggestion

On positive front: hotel staff were nice, pillows comfortable, and nice view from warm pool

The view from our room was amazing and we could watch whales breaching right from our deck.

We were in building 3, room 204A, with a most amazing patio that overlooked the sea.

Rooms are comfy and clean, we make ourselves at home.

Unit space was quite spacious for two people with combination of living room and well-equipped kitchen and separate bedroom.

I would say the big selling points are view of the arch from the pool and many rooms, a restaurant with great food, an uncrowned,vendor free semi private swimmable beach, all rare in Cabo.

The rooms are all spectacular with amazing ocean views so you can watch whales and sunrise/sunset from your room.

Large rooms, pretty grounds and great pools.

My husband and I loved the ocean view & listening to the waves from our room in building 3.

Sirena has a great pool and with the fewer number of rooms, you get to know other patrons as well as the staff.

Rooms were very nice and well equipped for cooking & meal preparations.

The events were fun, the room was very clean, spacious, and felt like home.

- Get to Chileno Beach for the beats swimming.

We took a taxi to go to the Chileno Beach excellent clear waters to go to the beach.

If you like snorkelling, lovers beach, Chileno beach and Santa Maria beach are all worth a visit.

We spent a day at Chileno Beach which is a MUST DO!

Around the property, it seemed to be stronger and more consistent.That is a concern as we were stuck having to do zoom calls in public areas of the hotel for the WiFi and that was not as comfortable.

but you also don’t want to run up your mobile phone bill by using 3G/5G when WiFi ***should*** be PLENTIFUL.

However, my partner got their phone taken from one of the cubbies at the neon party and unfortunately it wasn’t recovered before we had to leave the following afternoon, so I’d suggest keeping anything valuable on you or locked in your room.

My son also stated that when he went to there called the security guy on his personal cellphone..not on the walkie-talkie not on the hotel phone.

She
told the person on the phone that we need both housekeeping AND maintenance.

My friends had to call a pharmacy themselves.

Brother had blood stains on his duvet
- Had to call and ask 3x for a rollaway bed

He calls the front and gets the room number.

We were not allowed out of room come Sat and that was all the food given until 2pm - after numerous calls.

After realizing this I wandered around and asked 3 different security people to let us in our room or at the very least call the front desk to have someone come let us in.

Could not even talk or hear music on the phone.

My only tip would be to upgrade the plugs etc to accomadate phones etc.

Had to call for maintenance to get it unlocked.

There was a sense of dissatisfaction if employees didn’t receive tips for the slightest of actions as calling a cab.

I figured no one was taking me seriously so I did not want to call and instead just went there.

I attempted to call the front desk 5x from the phone in our room without any success.

Before then my phone was turned off so I was not able to locate it.

- If you are less mobile, please note there are LOTS of stairs to get around here. I would like to note that Nicole tried to make amends for the many issues we had in our room upon checkin by making us a few "reservations" at the specialty restaurant (though getting a table at the restaurants was not hard)

The single weakness was the quality of the WiFi signal in our room.

The rooms were comfy and the property absolutely spotless.

At the front desk, Antonio gave us the best room on the property, #4025.

Food was excellent, staff were very friendly and responsive, and the rooms were nice.

The room was very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

but includes access to sauna, steam room and hot tub before and after which is great.

Rooms were always clean and well stocked and the pools were great.

I have to mention that I left a valuable in my room after check out and the hotel sent a cab with my article to meet me at the airport.

Our AC didn’t work the greatest in our room.

They try to keep the Hotel clean at all times, ok rooms and bed.

Our rooms were well appointed and taken care of in a timely manner.

Our room 2156 gave onto the empty lot south of the property which was so quiet and perfect.

The layout of the room wasn’t great and there wasn’t any space to really be all together (we have 5 in our fam).

The room, food and entertainment were as good as always.

Very happy with the location of the hotel and the view from the room.

but when 
we opened our doors, we were taken aback by a very strong overwhelming sewer stench in both our 
rooms.

- Moldy bathroom and dirty bedroom furniture.

Rooms showed signs of mold and smell of mildew.

The sheets feel wet and everything smells musty.

The windows, balcony, furniture were left FILTHY!

Just a disgusting experience especially the food.

Smells like sewer really bad and rooms have fallen apart. Beware.

but there are paint chips, chipped wood moldings,cracked tiles, chukcn out of concrete walls, bathroom fans that don't work, etc.

Even the Saxaphone was dripping in sweat which was also not appealing.

Smoking locations are not wheelchair accessible and too remote.

very stiff and questionable and the seafood smelled like it had been left out in the sun for days.

Very warm and smelly elevators, lacking any form of ventilation.

Food lacked flavor, floor in room got my feet dirty when walking barefoot on first day of stay, sometimes it smelled like sewer water in our room and on the atea by the pool, taxi service super high compared to local rates

but since there was no exhaust fan in the bathroom, the room felt musty and a bid humid.

They shouldn't put the smoking station by the swim up rooms that people pay more money for!

but our neighbor smoked on his balcony, there was someone by beach washrooms smoking, guests on ground floor with pools attached smoked in their pools and a few poolside smokers trying to be sneaky.

We'll just open the balcony door and enjoy some fresh air since the room was musty smelling anyway.

You can walk over to the next beach - or take a short Uber ride to El Chileno Beach - very clean, calm and relaxing.

Pool was very cold during our stay as most guest were just sun-bathing .

but it’s barely any warmer than the cold pool.

I heard people complain that the infinity pool to the left of the resort (when facing the ocean) was cold,

LOTS OF MECHANICAL ISSUES WITH ROOM   COLD WATER
AC NOT WORING, THEY CAME TO TRY TO FIX AND NO LUCK
ELEVATORS CONSTANTLY NOT WORKING.

Which is either really cold or off (really hot) 

8.

Don't miss the coffee shop on a hot day, it's got ice cold AC and sweets besides.

but when I’m staying at a resort this expensive I expect my beer and bottled water to be cold.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted promptly with drinks and cold towels, and we never once had to carry our own baggage.

We had emailed (6 times) to ask for the rooms to be near each other and provided our confirmation numbers and they responded they’d put in a request, and as we arrived to check in…with no cold water or towel or drinks offered, we learned that they did not accommodate us and we were all of different floors of the hotel!

At the bar they said they would send our waiter right over, to which I replied “by the time he comes to our table, takes our order and brings our wine, our main courses will be cold or finished or both.

The room service food was not great (soup was cold by the time it arrived, other food was okay

Pools not heated and beginning of February the water was way too cold.

The gym equipment is antiquated and the steam room was cold.

There are 6 small hot tubs and a non heated pool that serves as a "cold plunge".

but even with heaters it was way too cold for outdoor seating (the winds renders the burners useless).

Food was delicious, the resort and rooms were clean and beautiful, service was excellent and friendly, house keeping and night service included and was great touch.

The rooms were clean and the food was very good

KensR

Wonderful service, very comfortable rooms, super friendly staff, and fabulous food.

The view from the room was phenomenal as well.

They offer great rooms, activities, and service.

We loved the food, the rooms and the atmosphere.

The rooms were clean and the ocean view is spectacular!

We stayed in room 405, which had an amazing oceanfront view.

All the rooms are ocean facing and have wonderful amenities.

Rooms & Guest Services - 10/10
Food - 8/10 (prioritize the various ceviche options.

The service at the tours area, room cleanliness, restaurants and poolside and food was 5 stars!

Our room, the pricey Casita, was large and roomy with great view,

Private room, with a pool upstairs and always house keeping - kept the room clean and fresh towels.

We booked and excursion to Chileno beach through the concierge for reliable transport.

It was under construction and WINDY, both of which we didn't expect.

Only to arrive after a long day,  they book you in, then tell you that they are having maintenance issues and they will be sending you to their sister hotel, way out of town,
Stupid expensive, and you are stuck in the middle of no where, and the place is being
Built still so the construction is ridiculous.

but were disappointed this year when we found out the construction of the Grand Solmar has taken away a pool from the Solmar.

Besides wasting the whole afternoon in their crazy shuttle, we wasted the evening trying to fix the air conditioner… (10) By the second day we were there they started construction in 2 rooms, one right by our right and one right by our left.

but "classic"  to the era of construction.

There is construction going on at the resort (even

Not sure if it will ever be the same if and when the construction stops.

Yes, our first room was a bit outdated and unfortunately was right next to/over the construction happening on their new entryway,

Construction was still ongoing at the Solmar,

We moved into a room, that was away from construction noise and had sun.

Another issue was when ever we wanted to take a nap in the middle of the day they had construction going on continuously and the worst part was the Jack hammers.

Despite some negative reviews I read there was hardly any construction noise.

The resort again was inundated with construction noise from the additional lobby work.

Construction going on which was very loud at times.

But more than that, we were given a room (told it was a free upgrade to a special suite, "no extra charge"), only to find a major jack-hammering construction project was going on right outside of our balcony, 10 hours a day.

Because of construction, we were relocated to the Playa Grande from the Solmar Resort and Beach Club.

The beds were comfortable and I did not hear any of the construction noise others have mentioned.

The construction noise was at times loud,

The prices are bad to start with then they add IVA tax and a 10% resort service charge - which according to the manager is optional

We also played multiple cards games on the daily.

I would caution people that they do charge to the room even if you request to pay separately which caused disruption at checkout

The resort will shuttle guests to their other properties without charge.

The All-Inclusive option is a tremendous value and we love the food and drink options, we do wish the tip option was a little more transparent so we could ensure if we were tipping on the room charge that it would go to our server,

no ac 
Plumbing was backwards
Everything  was not so
Hot water not so hot
Ac not so cold
Refrigerator not so cold
They wouldn't let uber past the gate because the hotel charges $100 for airport when it's $40 for uber.

I paid the balance a week before the trip.

Paid online and my card was processed on Mar 19, 2022.

One thing to be aware of is you cannot add a tip to your credit card.

Don't drink any of the bottled water provided in the room or you will be charged.

I lost $800, and no credit was offered either.

Not even a place to charge your phone by the bed.

Additionally we got home to find $$271.00 additional charges on our credit card.

I was charged 40.00 for 4 shots of Don Tequila when I have been sober for 30 years.

On top of that they triple charged our credit card charged us the day we checked out days after we left so now we have to call the bank and have that fixed.

but he could use my west jet credit card.

The rental agent agreed and it was only when I received my credit card statement when I returned to the US that I saw I had been charged the higher price.

Has overpriced restaurants charging $25 for a fettuccine Alfredo when their sister facilities sells full seafood dinner buffets for $37 for adults and half for kids.

Comfortable rooms with a basic kitchenette.

We go every yeary year get same room and great service by all.

The staff sent different maintenance crews to our room

The rooms were very spacious and all the employees were very accommodating.

I had no problem having enough water in my room that way.

The rooms were nice; beds comfy and very clean.

They had no available rooms in the other hotel buildings on their propert, so the bussed us to their sister resort for the night.

Once we settled into our lovely, air-conditioned room we headed to the pool and had excellent service from Gerardo and Taby!

Staff was super friendly and attentive, pools were nice, rooms are a bit dated

but the rooms were spotless, and the style of the room gave it a more authentic feel than a basic hotel room.

Rooms were nice and we were even upgraded when we arrived.

Beautiful views, comfortable rooms and excellent staff.

This is an excellent resort to stay, food is delicious and the rooms are very comfortable.

Rooms were great and temperatures in room were perfect.

The rooms are always great, service is fantastic, pool and proximity to town is perfect.

in that I left my wallet at a shop in Cabo during a half day town tour, and snorkeling at Chileno Beach.

but you pay for it:

- Watch out for discrimiation if you did not book directly.

I travel a lot and this did not thrill or disappoint, just not worth price.

For what we paid, I don’t think we got our moneys worth.

The only cons are the timeshare sales pitch on check-in, and the ridiculous prices of anything in the resort shops.

After waiting 9 months the experience and the expense registered as one of the worst vacations in memory.

To add insult to injury,  by accident my wife's expensive belt was ruined by housekeeping.

though extremely pricey ($1000 for a couples massage)

Cons:
- more of a general con for Cabo- the hotel backs right up to a busy highway (all of them do).

We didn’t get all the details so we ended up booking a tour that we thought was included and had to pay a lot of money at the end.

There are several types of cabana's for day rentals ranging from a simple cabana with lounge chairs to a much larger and more expensive lounge with the addition of a large TV, sitting area with small table and I think a small refrigerator.

I emailed the concierge back, letting them know that even at a five star, 5 diamond Michelin resort, a massage would never cost this much.

but the prices of these items were inflated.

You are limited to where and how much you can use for their overpriced services.
