Solaz is a modern coastal resort located along the corridor between San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. Guests praise the expansive Sea of Cortez views, infinity pools, and responsive butler assistance via WhatsApp. However, regular rooms and walkways pick up traffic noise from the adjacent coastal highway, and multiple guests report encountering unwelcome timeshare sales pitches during check-in. 314191

- “the staff kindly drove us to the front gate where our ride was waiting.” On camera422:19
- “It is uncanny how invisible staff are except when you need them, and then poof!- they appear with a smile and a buenos dias, ready to help. Our personal butler, Rafael, was top notch, quick to respond to our need for more coffee, filtered water, and reservation requests.” 25
- “Pool area was great, beach was nice, gym is nice, spa is great and our butlers were fantastic but I'm not paying $600ish a night to stay there.” 22
- “My wife and I I just stayed. Gorgeous resort, service was outstanding, even at the pool.” 20
- “The food and drink service was also very friendly and efficient.” 17
- “Food (sushi at Mako specifically), service, spa, amenities were all great.” 11

- “Overall, we would definitely stay here again for the luxury, the service, and those incredible pools.” On camera1822:03
- “The towels and bedsheets were also changed too often with no option offered to keep the old linens.” 17
- “we have a butler for this room which is insane and I feel totally spoiled saying that I'm gonna try to figure out a different word instead of Butler” On camera81:15
- “After a quick and seamless check-in, we were whisked away by golf cart to our room located on the lower level of the property.” On camera182:20
- “One of the standout elements of a stay at Solaz is the service. It's attentive without ever being intrusive, and delivered with a warmth that feels genuinely local.” 19
- “When I first checked in, the lights to the bathroom spaces didn't work. I called down to the front desk and they sent someone up right away. Truly, the technician seemed to materialize instantly outside my door.” 10
- “Two days before I arrived in Cabo, I received a "fancy welcome letter" - according to TPG travel analyst Zach Griff, who helped with my booking - from the chief concierge at Solaz. It was the first sign that the service was going to go above and beyond.” 10
- “The service wasn't nearly as attentive as other restaurants like Mako and La Deriva.” 3
- “Complimentary snacks are also brought out by the staff every hour or so, which was a thoughtful touch during our time by the pool.” On camera1815:54
- “Really beautiful property. Service was stellar.” 11
- “The service at Solaz is what you would expect at a five star resort. While we wish we could say that the service was flawless, we did encounter a few hiccups during our stay.” 3
- “Turndown service, robes, butler service, room service, and a complimentary beach bag complement attentive service throughout the property.” 15
- “Service was excellent - "butler" service accessible by whatsapp.” 7
- “Beds are dressed in crisp white linens and plush pillows, and the lighting is warm and customizable, allowing you to set the mood however you like.” 19

- “Attentive staff deliver exceptional poolside service.” 16
- “In the name of journalism, I also ordered room service one night. It was extremely prompt and tasty, but my eco-friendly paper straw was still soggy by the time it arrived.” 10
- “The staff was inattentive.” 11
- “The linens are going to be some of the most comfortable. You're obviously paying a premium for this hotel and everything is topof the line.” On camera43:42
- “The cleaning team was very efficient and left our room spotless every day.” 17
- “thank you to the salon's team for everything you've done for us they absolutely just blew us away with their Hospitality” On camera811:51
- “I couldn't believe he'd remembered my name from the day before. It was these moments - the receptionist at the spa saying, "Welcome back," when I ducked in to see if I could afford the fancy sunscreen (I couldn't) that made my stay truly special.” 10
- “One quick note, is that if you have a resort credit like we did through Marriott STARS, you can only use that credit at food and beverage outlets that are owned and operated by Solaz, a Luxury Collection Resort and not the Solaz Signature Suites. That wasn't disclosed to us at check-in.” 3
- “but if you're looking for peace privacy first class service this is the place” On camera216:43
- “Staff at Solaz remember names and favorite drinks without turning it into theater, and there's a sense that nothing is too much trouble, but it's delivered with a casual ease rather than white gloves.” 14
- “And this very nice mirror with some lighting on the sides.” On camera184:56
- “Cabanas dot the poolside decks, and staff are always on hand with chilled water, fresh fruit, and whatever cocktail strikes your fancy.” 19
Food58 mentions · 20 filmed
- “Restaurant menus favour local farmers, artisans and fishermen who supply fresh, organic and sustainably-sourced ingredients.” 25
- “getting refills was always a struggle as they would pull the coffee mug away from the table when you were finished with one cup. I haven't seen this at a restaurant before, but there's the Americano and then there's a refill, so they charge you for coffee refills.” On camera412:36
- “My favorite dining venue here was definitely Mo. This open air poolside restaurant blends indoor and outdoor spaces beautifully with swing chairs and loungers that create a relaxed yet upscale atmosphere.” On camera1812:17
- “This open air poolside restaurant blends indoor and outdoor spaces beautifully with swing chairs and loungers that create a relaxed yet upscale atmosphere. It's open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but I highly recommend dining here at sunset. The views are just spectacular.” On camera1812:20
- “Six distinctive restaurants offer delicious cuisine with breathtaking views, perfect for whale watching from your table.” 16
- “Over at Al Pairo, just off the open-air lobby, we indulged in the Wanderlust Menu, an 8-course flavour-infused odyssey of small and creative Mexican dishes.” 25
- “And the food wasn't as good either, especially the over-cooked chicken we were served. So when we return, we'll likely be skipping El Cardon.” 3
- “The buffet was so good, with Mexican and American savory and sweet dishes, and included coffee and juices.” 22
- “It serves pastries, snacks, salads, drinks, and essentials, functioning as both a light cafe and mini convenience store. We grabbed the freshlymade rose beef sandwich and chicken baguette in the morning, and both work pretty good.” On camera1817:02
- “Breakfasts here are legendary with tropical fruit, fresh-pressed juices, house-made pastries, and traditional dishes like chilaquiles and huevos rancheros.” 19
- “Food and drinks are very good.” 7
- “Staff recommended the FAI for cheese pizza and that was delivered right alongside the rest of our food next to the pool loungers. It was absolutely delicious, rich, cheesy, and indulgent.” On camera415:19
- “And while the food here was delicious, there's one reason you really come here, and that's for the views.” On camera422:58
- “We tried every restaurant on property and they were decent for what they were, nothing mindblowing and my gf has a bunch of allergies which they were surprisingly unable to accommodate despite her being a native Spanish speaker.” 22
- “If there's one takeaway, it's that the bar program at Solaz is second to none. The food was great, too, but it was the cocktails that really stood out.” 10
- “this restaurant is called casabel and they do a breakfast buffet every morning a lot of traditional breakfast foods they have an omelette bar and they also have these great little plates with enchiladas and french toast some chiliquiles it's a really good spread” On camera811:29
- “Really?? Sorry to hear that. I really liked Mako and the Italian restaurant, I forget the name. I ordered a ribeye (or maybe a filet) from Mako on night one and was genuinely surprised at how flavorful it was because I feel like Mexico is hit or miss with some things.” 11
- “Since we don't eat that much, we chose the Alakart menu where items are priced between 17 and $30. My favorite dish was the smoked short rib moyete, which was excellent, while the Solas Benedict and almond pancakes were just okay.” On camera1811:19
- “For our first night, we had dinner at El Pao. You do have the option for indoor seating if you want to be close to the kitchen, but you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't sit outside and take advantage of the nice breeze and the incredible views from the restaurant from the middle.” 4
- “Same airport, different towns and different vibes. We're staying at Casa Maat the resort inside the resort at the JW Marriott. Great spa, great location, one of my fave chefs in Mexico has a restaurant on site too, Cafe Des Artistes.” 7
- “Good job, cheers We are timeshare owners in Solaz and have stayed at the resort several times. We are timeshare owners in Solaz and have stayed at the resort several times. All of our stays have been great from the apartments to the food to the facilities.” 17
- “The lighting throughout the restaurants, around the pools, and across the whole resort makes walking around salons at night such a cool experience.” On camera416:27
- “Restaurants are great. Prices for food were reasonable for a luxury resort (definitely not $50 for a burger).” 20
- “Breakfast buffet was meh, it's continental. Not being able to get eggs or any other hot dishes for breakfast (even though included) is kinda silly.” 22
- “Regular breakfast off the menu was cheaper, like $15-$20 a dish, but not available as a part of the free breakfast. Also the breakfast hours are nice and long, 7-11:30am so we easily could eat at 11am and that would hold us til dinner.” 22
- “The dining at Mo comes with some of the best views on property, and the overall design and amenities really elevate the experience. Just keep in mind that Solas is a bit removed from town, so you'll need a car or taxi to get around.” On camera1821:50
- “The food at the pool is excellent and quite affordable for a luxury hotel.” 17
- “Buffet selection was small, but while it lacked in quantity, it made up with quality ingredients.” On camera412:16
- “Cascabel, the main restaurant, sets the tone with a focus on Mexican cuisine that's fresh, bold, and authentic. Ingredients are sourced locally, from the sea and the desert, and the menu changes with the seasons.” 19
- “The tuna tostada I had for appetizer was very very fresh.” On camera47:48
- “The shrimp tacos at Mako, the seafront alfresco restaurant with a swim-up bar, were among the best I've had anywhere-and I know a good taco when I bite into one.” 25
- “The food prices make airport prices look like a value menu. Of course the prices aren't posted anywhere online, but basically a cheeseburger is over USD$50 and a fish entree would be about $100-$150.” 20
- “My only other suggestion would be to make the menu at Baja Beach-an airstream on the sand below Maka - a little less fancy. We had to ask for explanations of several of the ingredients.” 25
- “Culinary Excellence: World-class dining with authentic Mexican flavors and international cuisine.” 1
- “Food was actually really good. We never even left the property.” 11
- “Solaz is newer and overall feels nicer, it's closer to Cabo proper and some good restaurants.” 22
- “got breakfast in our room which was really tasty got chilaquiles which I love” On camera86:43
- “The Italian food at La Deriva was incredible.” 3
- “The dining at Al Pairo was excellent.” 11
- “The black coffee was good though, but getting refills was always a struggle as they would pull the coffee mug away from the table when you were finished with one cup.” On camera412:34
- “Not all hotel breakfasts are created equal, but the breakfast at Solaz is incredible.” 3
- “Food is subjective, so you can have that, but both of my butlers waited on us hand and foot, so I have to disagree with your assessment here.” 11
- “For me, the green chiso was one of the standouts. You can try Mexican coffee, which is mixed with cinnamon and a few other spices. For me, the taste was way too sweet.” On camera412:26
- “Now, let's check out the various dining options. We'll start off with Kasabel, located by the lobby. This bright and airy breakfast spot was a nice way to start the day with its stunning desert and ocean views through the Florida ceiling windows.” 18
- “The buffet-style meal was well-presented and fresh, and there was a wide selection of international and traditional Mexican pastries; at least five fresh-squeezed juices and infused waters; gorgeous berries and a cook-to-order omelet station.” 10
- “they fed us an amazing dinner upstairs it's about 10 o'clock right now and they have a really awesome New Year's Eve party that's planned in an hour so we've come back to our room to kind of get ready” On camera88:48
- “Food (sushi at Mako specifically), service, spa, amenities were all great.” 11
- “during lunch it's kind of a mixed bag you can get sushi Pizza tacos it's actually really really good to be honest all the food we've had here has been really really good” On camera85:23
- “Food and drinks are very good. We only did dinner in the sushi restaurant, which was a good experience.” 7
- “We went back to Ricio Deari for Italian dinner on our second night. I thought the food was fine, but Joel wasn't really impressed. One thing we did agree on though was that for Italian food, it was pretty good for Mexico.” On camera416:10
- “Mexican pastries were also topnotch.” On camera412:49
- “So lesson learned. But also the food was sensational, and a solid Earl Grey-and-Champagne-infused gin cocktail and plate of freshly-caught grilled shrimp aren't things I'm ever going to complain about.” 10
- “Mako and the Italian restaurant were our favorites for dinner, and the breakfast/brunch buffet was massive and also delish.” 11
- “Food was actually really good. We never even left the property. Mako and the Italian restaurant were our favorites for dinner, and the breakfast/brunch buffet was massive and also delish. Be sure to try out the quesadilla station they having during breakfast :)” 11
- “Food at Solaz feels less like hotel dining and more like a Baja tasting tour. Al Pairo, a Michelin-recognized restaurant, is the heart of it, and the ceviche alone is worth the flight.” 14
- “If you'd rather stay in, room service is available. We tried a pizza for dinner, which was just okay. So, I definitely recommend venturing out to the resort's restaurants for the best dining experience.” On camera1814:21
- “Also the breakfast hours are nice and long, 7-11:30am so we easily could eat at 11am and that would hold us til dinner. We only ate at the lunch restaurant once but it was good, a little expensive for what it is. It was $100 for an guac, burger, and salad and no drinks.” 22

- “So, as soon as you enter, you have this outdoor patio with a bench right there and this very cool outdoor shower. And these are the products they have here. Some vibrator products. So, this is nice cuz it's so hot out here and taking a shower out in the warm sun is pretty cool.” On camera182:49
- “The inside shower didn't get hot. So we had to use the outside shower.” 11

- “Only minor negatives would be the proximity to the road at the front side of the property - only a problem when walking to your room, didn't really hear it inside the room.” 7
- “The only complaint we have about the Solaz is the road noise. The main walkway that leads from the lobby to the pool is like a funnel and you can hear the cars passing by out on the highway. The resort has music playing softly all over to try to reduce the impacts of the road noise, but you can still hear it and you could even hear it at times from the inside of our room.” 3
- “The apartment is soundproof, and we didn't hear any other guests during our whole week there.” 17
- “It is worth noting that the 2 other bedrooms, while comfortable, are at the back of the apartment and are facing the highway. The highway is adjacent to the hotel. You can hear the cars from the rooms so not the most pleasant holiday feeling if you have a room at the back of the building.” 17
- “Mag-reply I-share Jay_LV • 2 taon ang nakalipas Glad you enjoyed your stay, we enjoyed ours as well and I don't mean to sound if I'm dunking on the property, those were just my gripes. We had a regular room and the noise wasn't bad but you would definitely hear a car or truck pass by.” 22

- “With its stunning location between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, exceptional accommodations, world-class dining, immersive cultural experiences, and exclusive STARS benefits, it stands as one of the most coveted resorts in Mexico.” 1
- “Not sure how true that is but seems plausible. We debated Solaz vs The Cape and went with Cape instead even though I had points and Titanium status. Solaz is pretty far from downtown/the marina FYI.” 20
- “The resort is only 30 minutes from Los Cabos International Airport, making transfers convenient and stress-free.” 1
Room25 mentions · 6 filmed
- “Thank you. This is room 4309. This is going to be the base level room at the salos. Let's take a quick look. Joel's on the way. Move your luggage. Heat. Heat. This is a stunning room and everything is topnotch.” On camera42:52
- “The master bedroom is facing the terrace and has a sea view. It is so relaxing to fall asleep by the sound of the wave.” 17
- “So, it's a very luxurious room here at the Solas in Los Cabos, Mexico.” On camera189:20
- “The furnished balcony with eclectic chaises was ideal for lazy afternoons lounging, but the hammock was totally unusable, because it was draped across the seating.” 10
- “And on the other side, there's some more closet space. Oh my gosh. Open up. It's kind of hard to slide this open.” On camera186:01
- “controls absolutely everything in the room including the drapes which they automatically open and close big floor to ceiling Windows which is amazing” On camera81:29
- “And this room really wowed me with amenities like an oversized balcony and a floor plan exceeding 700 square feet.” 10
- “The living room was spacious, comfortable, and easy to settle in.” 17
- “The room also had a coffee and tea bar with a Nespresso and Tea Forte teas that felt a bit out of place in the bathroom but was otherwise a nice touch.” 10
- “Governing the AC is nuts because the entire room was remote controlled and you could have your AC as low as you wanted...” 11
- “But all of the rooms at Solaz are made for a luxurious getaway. Our room was quite large at over 850 square feet.” 3
- “There was more seating than I knew what to do with (do guests ever really use the corner rocking chair, I wonder?), including a somewhat frivolous little table with two stools that looked better suited for a kindergarten (albeit a very fancy one) than an upscale resort, and room-length windows that flooded” 10
- “My room also had a well-stocked (and pricey) mini-bar area with international snacks (whole almonds, baked apple chips), premium liquors (Glenmorangie Scotch, Pierde Almas Espadín mezcal and Veuve Clicquot, to name a few) and local specialties like salted apricots and worm salt that you could probably pack up and take home as souvenirs if you never make it into town.” 10
- “We just got back to our room after dinner and they do turnout service here. So, they gave us some chocolates. There's one on that side of the bed and another one on this side and there's a note that describes what it is. It says our cacao. So, that's cool cuz not a lot of hotels do that anymore.” On camera1813:08
- “It is not an all-inclusive property. Although located on the beach, swimming is not advisable due to dangerous surf, but it provides plenty of room to take a stroll and the ocean is viewable from almost every spot on the property.” 24
- “The one thing we would have liked to have seen in the room is a desk to work, just because we work from the road so much.” 3
- “With polished stone floors, neutral hues, warm woods and natural textures that evoked the scenery outside, my room at Solaz was a relaxing space to return to come nightfall, when I nursed my sunburns.” 10
- “Each room is designed with local Mexican Huanacaxtle wood, bamboo-textured marble, and custom furnishings. The natural color palette keeps your focus on those mesmerizing sea views framed through floor-to-ceiling windows.” 12
- “It, therefore, felt a bit awkward using the Jacuzzi while other people were on the terrace. Our suite was located on the fifth floor and offered a panoramic sea view.” 17
- “I cannot say enough about the shower in my plunge pool terrace room. It was like standing under a waterfall, which might not the best for water conservation but sure felt amazing.” 25
- “And this door, I mean, it slides very easily. But see how it's misaligned? It's like wide open on the bottom. So, they do need some maintenance in this room. And the door's flimsy. And the door is it's very flimsy. So, you'd expect it to be higher quality, especially at this kind of resort.” On camera1821:13
- “The suite is equipped with automatic lighting. While it looks fancy at the beginning, I found it annoying. Every time we would come back in the apartment, all the lights ( and the TV!) would automatically turn on.” 17
- “Despite being a timeshare, Solaz Luxury suites is a great place to stay for a family or group of friends that enjoy having a full-size apartment and a kitchen in a luxury resort. We felt at ease and enjoyed the utmost comfort and care throughout our 7 days stay in the Imperial Suite.” 17
- “The layout is such that it never appears crowded or crawling with people.” 24
- “For example, we could not turn off the AC in our apartment. The living room was freezing cold during the whole week. We asked maintenance to fix twice but never heard back from them. So we had to keep the windows open and waste a lot of energy.” 17

- “I did not like that while I was checking in they asked me to speak to this young lady for an upgrade, wife and I thought nice! Never expected a timeshare trap in such an expensive place. This left a very bad taste for me, walking away was like pulling teeth.” 20
- “All the furnishings and decor felt expensive: textured marbles, Huanacaxtle wood and another Lopez-Negrete wall sculpture above the king-sized bed with a cushioned bench at the end and eight (yes, eight!) pillows.” 10
- “Restaurants are great. Prices for food were reasonable for a luxury resort (definitely not $50 for a burger).” 20
- “Also the breakfast hours are nice and long, 7-11:30am so we easily could eat at 11am and that would hold us til dinner. We only ate at the lunch restaurant once but it was good, a little expensive for what it is.” 22
- “Salas truly stands out as the best Marriott property in Cabo. It's not the spot if you're chasing the party scene, but if you're planning a memorable getaway like a wedding or special celebration, Salas strikes the perfect balance of luxury and value.” On camera423:42
- “The service at the pool was usually excellent but sometimes inconsistent which for a hotel in this price points was a bit disappointing.” 17
- “Stunning grounds, impeccable customer service at every turn, well-run and relaxing spa, amazing breakfast...Definitely met the luxury standards that should come with a price point like theirs.” 11
- “Solaz Luxury Suites is still a new resort, and there are a few small improvements that would help justify the price they currently charge.” 17
- “Stayed at Solaz a couple days this week, place is amazing but yes prices are very expensive.” 20
- “Prices for food were reasonable for a luxury resort (definitely not $50 for a burger).” 20
- “I think if they dropped their rates to like $400-450/nt they'd be in a great sweet spot. I understand the overall luxury feel they're trying to portray at Solaz but for just a few dollars more Chileno Bay, Esperanza, Montage, etc are really a step above.” 22
- “Casa Maat is kind of a mini all inclusive (I usually avoid AI like the plague) with free breakfast, snacks and beverages. There is a Ritz next door but that's really really pricey.” 7
- “I like this property but would never stay their for their cash rates.” 22
View2 mentions
- “The view from the tower rooms is fantastic, I think all of them are an unobstructed ocean view.” 22
- “The rooms at Solaz are, quite simply, spectacular. Every single one has been designed to maximize the view, with floor-to-ceiling windows that pull the Sea of Cortez into your private sanctuary.” 19
