Traveler Insights(520 discussions)

Secrets Puerto Los Cabos consistently earns its place among the top Cabo all-inclusives in travel forums, primarily for the tranquil atmosphere, spa quality, and refined service that distinguishes it from the more chaotic Cabo San Lucas strip. The Puerto Los Cabos location is its defining characteristic - quieter, more upscale, and genuinely different from the Medano Beach party zone. Travelers who specifically want to avoid the Cabo San Lucas crowds find the San Jose del Cabo setting refreshing.

The key tradeoff to understand before booking is the beach situation. The Pacific at San Jose del Cabo is not swimmable due to dangerous currents - the resort has beautiful pool areas and ocean views, but if swimming in the ocean is central to your vacation vision, this is the wrong property. Travelers who go in knowing this tend to have excellent experiences; those who expect Caribbean-style beach swimming are disappointed. The Unlimited Luxury dining format (no reservations, unlimited a la carte) is a genuine quality-of-life improvement over resorts that require advance booking.


This resort is the right call for couples focused on spa treatments and relaxation rather than beach swimming, golfers wanting easy access to a world-class Nicklaus course, and travelers who want the Secrets/AMR brand quality in a less crowded Cabo setting. Compare directly with Sandals Royal Caribbean for romance-focused travelers, and Excellence Playa Mujeres in Cancun for travelers willing to consider a different destination for better beach access at a similar price.

Pros

  • +AAA Four Diamond adults-only property in San Jose del Cabo's exclusive Puerto Los Cabos community - a genuinely quieter, more refined alternative to the Cabo San Lucas party zone
  • +Unlimited Luxury means no reservations required at any of the a la carte restaurants, a meaningful operational advantage over resorts with complex reservation systems
  • +Spa is exceptional by all-inclusive standards - treatments, facilities, and service quality are consistently called out as a highlight
  • +Golf access to the nearby Nicklaus Design course at Puerto Los Cabos adds a genuine recreational differentiator for golfers
  • +Adults-only format creates a calmer, more romantic pool and beach atmosphere than Cabo's family resorts
  • +Personalized service throughout the property - staff remembering guest preferences and names is a recurring travelers positive
  • +Pacific and Sea of Cortez location creates stunning natural scenery with dramatic sunsets over the arch rock formations visible from higher ground
  • +San Jose del Cabo's art district and authentic town center is a short taxi ride away - a genuine cultural escape from resort life

Cons

  • The beach is not swimmable - Pacific currents at San Jose del Cabo are too strong and dangerous for swimming, which is a significant limitation for a beach resort
  • Pool areas substitute for beach swimming but the view doesn't fully compensate for the loss of true beach access
  • Some Travelers note food quality has declined in recent years - fewer staff, smaller portions, and slower service compared to peak period experiences
  • Price point is premium and competes directly with Excellence Playa Mujeres and similar properties that deliver better food programs
  • The secluded location that creates the tranquil atmosphere also means limited walkability - you need taxis for anything off-property
  • Golf is not included in the all-inclusive package - additional costs for clubs, cart, and green fees add up quickly
  • Rooms are spacious but occasional maintenance issues are noted - fixtures and upkeep don't always match the luxury positioning
  • Smaller resort footprint means fewer restaurant options and less variety than larger Hyatt Inclusive Collection properties

Common Questions

Is the beach at Secrets Puerto Los Cabos swimmable?
No - this is the most important thing to know before booking. The Pacific currents at San Jose del Cabo are dangerous and the beach is not safe for swimming. The resort has excellent pool facilities as the primary swimming option. Travelers consistently flag this as a key planning consideration - if ocean swimming is essential to your trip, look at properties on the Sea of Cortez side or in the Caribbean.
How is the food quality compared to other Secrets resorts?
The Unlimited Luxury format means no reservations are needed and all a la carte restaurants are included, which Travelers appreciate. Food quality is generally rated positively, though some reviews note that service speed and portion sizes have slipped in recent years. Overall it's competitive with other Secrets properties but not exceptional by luxury all-inclusive standards.
Is golf included in the all-inclusive package?
No - golf at the Puerto Los Cabos course is not included in the standard Unlimited Luxury package and involves additional fees for green fees, club rental, and cart. Complimentary transportation to the course is provided. Budget for golf as a separate cost if that's a priority.
How far is the resort from downtown San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas?
San Jose del Cabo's art district is a short 10-15 minute taxi ride away - very accessible for an evening dinner out or gallery walk. Cabo San Lucas is about 30-40 minutes by taxi. Travelers on longer stays typically take at least one excursion to the Arch (Land's End) and Cabo marina, accessible via boat tours that can be arranged through the concierge.
How does Secrets Puerto Los Cabos compare to Breathless Cabo San Lucas?
They're very different experiences. Breathless is on Medano Beach with swimmable water, a party-adjacent atmosphere, and is in walking distance of Cabo San Lucas restaurants and bars. Secrets Puerto Los Cabos is quieter, more secluded, and designed for couples prioritizing relaxation and spa. The beach tradeoff (no swimming at Secrets) is the key decision point.
