Live in the moment. Simple, right—especially if we’re talking about travel? At the all-inclusive Villa la Valencia Beach Resort & Spa Los Cabos, it is, in fact, as easily done as it’s said, what with all the amenities, restaurants, pools, entertainment … all of which can bring you to that place of “This is my Mexico. This is my Mexican vacation.”
Planning with a Pro is obviously the best way to ensure any trip you plan feels 100% yours. But once your plane touches down and your transfer drops you off at that gorgeous slice of paradise, your resort experience is yours to bend, flex, and experiment with, creating a stay that reflects your personal travel style. That’s why it’s so important to know what your options are in advance. With your travel advisor’s guidance, you can take advantage of Villa la Valencia’s cornucopia of inclusions to the fullest—and find your Mexico moment you never want to leave.
If you travel to eat, make your vacation a culinary smorgasbord.
Ice-cold drinks by the pool are about as refreshing as they come, but a delectable selection of dining options will have you working up an appetite with a swim over and over again for an excuse to sample:
An extensive selection of open-kitchen Italian cuisine at flagship restaurant La Taberna, with signature dishes like pappardelle with lamb ragu, ricotta-and-spinach stuffed cannelloni in a cheese sauce, and shrimp stuffed with Manchego and wrapped in bacon over mushroom risotto.
Prime cuts of beef at the formal-casual Latitude 23.5 Steak House. Although aimed at meat lovers, pescetarian and vegetarian diners can find dishes to please their palates as well.
Mexican flavors from El Patrón, ranging from starters including crispy pork-belly-and-octopus tacos or traditional street corn to entrées such as a steak burrito and gluten-free salmon served with grilled pineapple, avocado gel, and a banana puree.
Poolside snacks, pizzas, and flatbreads, along with fresh fruit and salads, at Coralle.
If you like to stay active, lean into the free entertainment.
Start the day with a stretching class, or go on an afternoon date with a salsa, bachata, or merengue lesson, or even a couples massage class at Azul Spa. Groups can channel a backyard get-together with activities like cornhole, bocce, and horseshoes, or game night with a guessing game. The kids club has its own extensive lineup of action, from tie-dye class and Mexican crafts to scavenger hunts and boogie boarding. Painting classes let guests of all ages tap into their creativity (or keep it adults-only for the optional Sunset, Art & Wine session), while theme nights and pool parties deliver a social vibe.
If you're a homebody, kick back in your swanky suite.
Rich wooden accents offsetting stunning views. Modern décor adding to a beach-inspired color story. More space than you know what do with. Villa la Valencia's Deluxe Studios and One or Two Bedroom Suites, each overlooking the pool or ocean, are perfect for couples and small families wanting a luxury touch. For a truly over-the-top experience, however, the Three Bedroom Suite Ocean View, Penthouse Three Bedroom Oceanfront Suite, and Four Bedroom Suite Oceanfront—spanning 3,984 square feet and accommodating up to 12 adults—offer the ultimate sumptuous home-away-from-home treatment.
If the water is your happy place, leave plenty of time for pool time.
Four pools mean four ways to mix up the sunbathing and splashing routine, but what you really won’t want to miss is the lazy river. Winding 1,114 feet across the grounds, it certainly lives up to the name, making you want to float away the day. Beachfront Jacuzzis® provide more opportunities to soak in the good times; an adults-only pool specializes in quiet time.
Whether it's dinner with your special someone or game time with the kids or friends, Villa la Valencia knows how to make every moment feel like the moment that defines your Mexican vacation … and becomes a memory you keep coming back to.
