Does anyone know if Los Cabos is all inclusive?

None of the other bHC nor HGVC are, so we think not. It doesn't state that it is on the website. They do have some nice restaurants on the property. It is closest to Cabo-San Jose.

Okay I saw that they charge $30 for breakfast on their website but no mention of anything else.
I just figured with the extreme point price it may be All inclusive for everything else.

I believe it was supposed to open this month but with the new CDC regulations going into effect, it has to be a total crusher.

Might be worth owning for low point costs in about 5 years when resales pop up.

The resort looks beautiful, however cooking in that unit would be impossible. Especially compared to free Diamond breakfast at the hotel. I wonder if HGVC members can get breakfast in the hotel similar to the District/Embassy Suites arrangement.

Now I am curious to see a 1 bdrm kitchen.

Not a great review on the video

I couldn’t watch it, between his creepy accent and the constant zooming I felt sick to my stomach.

Obviously, this wasn't an HGVC promotional video.

I will work on my accent and the zooming in the future. ;-)
In the meantime, I might be able to answer some questions about the place.

GajaDreams,

Couple of questions:

1. What side of the hotel is La Pacifica?
2. Do you have a video of the 1BR and 2BR?

I know the point values are high but it seems the 1BR/2BR units might be worth it.

Thanks.

I heard there are 7 2BR, 6 1BR and 61 Studios. Needless to say they will be pretty hard to get even at those point levels.

I’m pretty bummed about the point levels. We have lived in Guadalajara for almost two years and getting to Hawaii has been a pain, even before covid. Was hoping to use my points at the new resort now that FA is AI in Cabo and the Cancun resort is very subpar.

1. Not perfectly sure, since it isn't really separated. You use the same front desk and so on. In my opinion, it must be the wing on the right side of the picture. In that area, there were still some construction sites. I've marked our room from the review with an arrow. We also tried out a room in the hotel, which was in the center of the main building.

2. Unfortunately, 1BR and 2BR were not available mid of December (La Pacifica opened on Dec 10). But you will find some promotional videos on YouTube on those room categories.

And by the way: it's not an all inclusive resort.

@GajaDreams Thanks for the review and the information. I found it quite helpful.

1) Are there roads/paved trails (off the main highway) out in front of the hotel where it is safe to go running?
2) Did you get a chance to check out the workout room and could tell me if it has elipticals and where the room is located?
3) Do you know where the 1 and 2 bdrms are located in the wing?
4) Did you see a separate HGVC owners lounge? (By Hilton Club Owners lounge may offer breakfast and appetizers for HGVC owners.)

1) No. From the highway, you enter the hotel area. The pics at Google StreetView are still valid:
Direct entry from the highway (although there is a bus stop on the right side, so basically you even can cross the highway :) - I leave it up to you, if this is safe enough):
highway.jpg


As soon as you pass the gate, there is nothing, besides the parking lots, where you could go running.

2) In the pic you also see the location of the workout room.
From some distance, you can see it also in the video:

Here also a pic from the gym. Looks like ellipticals.

3) Unfortunately not.

4) I didn't see any special lounge. But don't want to exclude, that there might have been one in some hidden corner.
Though the HGVC is completely integrated into the "standard Hilton" - they share front desk and everything. The only difference were the black instead of blue "clean stay" stickers. :)

In my other video you see some more impressions from the resort and also few images at the end from breakfast. Was a good selection by the way, if you get the full breakfast (not just the continental).

Basically a nice resort.

Not a video, but the HGVC site has virtual tours of all room types (of the entire property actually)

Scroll down the page vertically until you see the "Interactive Tour" heading.
Scroll through the options horizontally and follow the "tours" by clicking the arrows in the picture. You can tilt/pan/rotate the view by clicking and holding in the picture (but not on an arrow) and then moving the mouse. Not sure about the mobile experience but it provided a fairly comprehensive understanding of the property on a desktop.
The tours of the rooms are at the right end of the horizontal options.

Personally, I quite liked the video and your accent was fine. I thought the visuals were extremely nice for a video blog. If I had one critique, it would be that what to do there or nearby was not clear. Maybe that belongs in a separate video "If you want to learn more about what to do at and around this resort, see our video titled..."

It does seem like an extremely expensive choice. Thanks for making the video :)
