Does Every Cabo Resort Have an All-Inclusive Plan?
No. Cabo includes both all-inclusive resorts and European-plan hotels, where guests pay separately for meals and drinks. Some properties offer both room-only and all-inclusive rates, while others operate mainly or entirely as all-inclusive resorts.
Before booking, check whether the quoted price includes:
- All meals or only breakfast
- Alcoholic drinks and premium brands
- Room service
- Restaurant reservations
- Kids' clubs and activities
- Resort fees and gratuities
- Spa treatments, excursions and airport transfers
Grand Velas, for example, includes dining, beverages, activities and concierge services, but charges extra for spa treatments, airport transportation, tours, specialty liquor and some other services.
Are Cabo's All-Inclusive Resort Beaches Safe for Swimming?
Not always. A beachfront resort in Cabo is not automatically located on a swimmable beach.
Some Los Cabos beaches have strong surf, rip currents and undertows. Medano Beach, Chileno Beach and Santa Maria Beach are among the better-known swimming areas, but conditions can change. The Los Cabos Tourism Board recommends checking beach flags before entering the water.
If ocean swimming matters, confirm that the resort has access to a swimmable beach before booking.
Bottom Line
Check the rate details and beach conditions before you book. Those two checks will tell you whether the resort fits the trip you want.
