A wonderful vacation in paradise! We just returned home from Cabo San Lucas enjoying the beautiful Residences at Hacienda Encantada. We were greeted at the stunning Vista Lobby by our personal butler, Monserrat, who escorted us to our house, a beautifully appointed three bedroom, six bath home with its own swimming pool! The house fit our group of three couples perfectly. We were there celebrating one couple’s anniversary and Monserrat had the room decorated honoring them. It was so special and such a nice touch. She also helped plan and reserve excursions, dinner reservations, transportation, cart shuttle and all the other needs we had during our stay. She did an excellent job. Guillermo, the Residences head butler, filled in too, not allowing any of our needs go unmet! Thank you to such a great team! On this trip we enjoyed the optional premium meal plan which included meals and beverages at all the restaurants on property and additional restaurants in downtown Cabo San Lucas Golden Zone. Considering the rise in food and meal costs we were very pleased with the ease, convenience and quality of the plan. Our favorite restaurants were Mestizo’s, both for breakfast and dinner, Las Maria’s for breakfast, and El Patio at Phase One Pool and Atico at Vista Rooftop Pool, and Il Forno. In the Vista Lobby, Cantomar was a perfect spot to grab a refreshing beverage and take in the views of the Sea of Cortez. There are several activities at the resort to enjoy, including bike riding, horseback riding, dinner shows, arts and crafts, a putting course and a personal favorite, pickleball. Off property we enjoyed a dinner cruise, ATV riding and a memorable Thursday evening in San Jose at the Art Walk. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention those whose excellent service stood out during our week - along with our butlers, Monserrat and Guillermo, a special thanks goes out to Dayane at Vista Encantada, who cheerfully meets every request she can, our housekeeper Guadalupe, who kept our house immaculate, Christan, Diana and Agustin at Cantomar, Angel at Atico, Managers Naomi and Antonio and waiter Jesus at Las Marias lovely breakfast buffet, Jair at El Patio, and Moises the phase one pool concierge and phenomenal pickleball player. A huge thanks to Trinidad, Marco and all the bell hops at the Residences, who never kept us waiting for rides even though they were so very busy. We always have such a wonderful time at this very special resort and this year it was just perfect! We highly recommend this special resort in Cabo San Lucas.

Great overall experience! One of the best places to vacation. May is a wonderful time to visit. Out butler and everyone on the staff was absolutely excellent! The food was good and there is a lot of variety. You are in a great location, near the marina.

What an awesome week at Hacienda! From the moment we arrived, Estefania (Fani) took such great care of us. It was so nice to have a personal butler to help us all week with coordinating activities, dinner reservations, just ANYTHING and she was right there! Anytime we had even a minor issue or question, she was ON it! Her cheery attitude and pleasant nature made her that much more special. We were so sad to leave at the end of the week because it was as if she’d become part of our family. I hope we get Fani assigned as our butler next year. We will truly miss her until then…

The Residences at Hacienda Encantada have young men, called Butlers, to help your stay be one of the best vacations ever. One of them named Daniel Morales has helped us for many years to make this true. He has always booked our golf reservations, excursions, as well as restaurants. And of course, arranged all our taxis to our destinations, including the end to the airport. While at Hacienda, I always look for Daniel as I know he will make my vacation easier and special, as he is!

We had the best week at our second home, Hacienda Encantada. The villa was beautiful, pool amazing and our butler Monse was the best (as she always is). We ate at two restaurants and both were excellent. We also enjoyed water volleyball, making bracelets and trivia at the pool. Cannot wait to come back!
