What a lovely vacation.

We stayed at the Grand Solmar the last week of June/first week of July. The resort is lovely! Very clean, the room was amazing - each room well equipped and a beautiful views of the ocean and pools. The staff was wonderful and friendly. We had treatments at the spa - the whole staff was truly wonderful there as well. The singular disappointment for the trip was the food at the resort. It just wasn't that great! There are plenty of bars and dining options during the day but they mostly close at 6:00 pm with the exception of the very expensive fine dining option. The other food was also very expensive and just mediocre. The best recommendation I have for anyone staying here is to make a very thorough stop at a grocery store when you arrive and plan to eat and cook a lot in your rooms. But, on that note, you are not allowed to bring food/drinks to the pool so you are sort of stuck buying the drinks at the pool. There is a good 2 for 1 happy hour twice a day that was nice but for a long week with a lot of mouths to feed this wasn't the most ideal resort I've ever stayed at. There is a nice option of a shuttle from this resort to Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes that runs every other hour, every day. We took advantage of the shuttle several times to get into town, take a great boat tour of The Arch and snorkeling and finding other places to eat. Overall, it was a great experience and place to spend a week!”

Comfortable penthouse with ocean view

This was a nice relaxing vacation for me and my two daughters. The penthouse is big with strong AC. Our unit is beachfront with amazing ocean view. Our unit is close to the pool area. The unit itself was clean, very comfortable and pretty. Regarding the resort, this resort is big. There are multiple restaurants inside the resort. I prefer a smaller resort with a more personalized touch. It’s hard to get out of this resort as it is located deep in the dunes. You need to rent a car or get a private taxi to get around. If you want just to stay in one location for a week then this is great but if you want some cultural immersion and options for local restaurants nearby then you need to get a car rental or hire a private driver to go outside. It’s extremely difficult for Uber to get in and out of this property as they have to go through multiple security gates from the main road. Or the resort might not even allow them to get in. You have to use the resort’s own taxi or own private services for outside exploration or activities. ”

An Amazing Family Vacation at Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the 3 Bedroom Penthouse at Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes through ThirdHome. We traveled with our daughter, son-in-law, and our two grandsons (ages 4 and 8), and the spacious layout was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax without ever feeling crowded. The penthouse itself was beautiful, exceptionally clean, and very well maintained. The housekeeping staff did an outstanding job throughout our stay. The unit had almost everything we needed. The only amenities we missed were a dishwasher and an in-unit washer and dryer, but neither took away from what was otherwise a wonderful experience. The resort offers plenty of activities for families. Our grandsons absolutely loved the water slides, the jungle rope over the pool, and the many activities organized by the entertainment staff. We happened to visit during the World Cup, and the staff went above and beyond by hosting soccer-themed activities, including bracelet making, face painting, and fun prediction games where the kids could guess who would score first and at what point in the match. It created such a fun atmosphere for both children and adults. During our June 2026 stay, one of the restaurants was closed, which limited the dinner options. The daytime pool menus offered plenty of choices, but we would have appreciated a few more evening dining options. That said, we absolutely loved the sports bar. It had a great atmosphere, excellent food, and became one of our favorite places to gather. We also took advantage of the complimentary shuttle to another Grand Solmar property, where we enjoyed a glass-bottom boat tour to El Arco. It was a fantastic excursion and one of the highlights of our trip. Overall, we had an amazing family vacation and would not hesitate to return. Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes is a beautiful resort with outstanding service, wonderful family activities, and spacious accommodations that made for an unforgettable stay. ”

Beautiful resort

We all enjoyed our stay. Solmar resort was amazing, food outstanding and service impeccable. Loved all the pools and spa service. We had a wonderful relaxing vacation. ”

Beautiful unit and property

The three bedroom penthouse is amazing. Oceanfront views, spacious living room and a nice shower and bathtub. The sliding doors in the living room and bedrooms are so nice at night - you’re able to hear the waves crashing. Housekeeping was great as well.”

Beautiful Ocean Views

We loved our stay at Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes. We stayed in a 3rd floor unit in building E. Gorgeous sunset views, we saw so many whales. Finishes in the units are very nice. Pool staff was very friendly. We took the complimentary shuttle to the sister property at Lands End a couple of days and enjoyed the pools there as well. Massages were great and enjoyed the round of golf. ”

3 bedroom penthouse

Outstanding location!! Watched whales spout and breach from our balcony. Excellent service anywhere on the premises. The accommodation was clean, well maintained and furnished. We had a great time ”

Beautiful and great staff

Really enjoyed our trip over the holidays. We had 7 people and plenty of room. Newer beautiful property. Quiet but also lots of activities is you want to join. Sister property at the marina accessible by bus.”

Always Exceptional!

As always it's about location, location, location, which is incomparable! Add in the luxury accommodation and 5 star service and it's a formula for exclusive travel. ”

Peaceful Cabo

Very remote resort, but so beautiful and peaceful. The suites are spacious and well-appointed. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Would definitely return!”

Great stay at Grand Solmar

My family and I just came back from a lovely week at the Grand Solmar Rancho San Lucas. The resort is somewhat secluded on the Pacific side of Cabo. This side of Cabo is windier than downtown Cabo or the corridor. The 3 bedroom Penthouse suite is very large and has a full kitchen and well appointed bathrooms. The master bath was very large with a walk-in shower and beautiful tub area. If you choose to use the kitchen, you need purchase groceries on your way in from the airport as there are no nearby grocery stores. We chose to do the all inclusive plan which I would recommend. The food was excellent at both restaurants and you can also use the free shuttle to go to Solmar Lands End and eat there as well which we did twice during our stay. Food quality was better than many other all inclusive resorts in Cabo. Food service was very slow overall so plan on spending some time at both the sit down restaurants and pool side restaurants. Breakfast tended to be faster and was always delicious. Helpful hint: you can order sushi at any of the pools, just ask for the sushi menu. You also get two free "activities" with the All Inclusive. We did the cooking class and Tequila tasting. Tequila tasting was really well done. Viry at the Kids Club was amazing and our kids had a great time doing activities with her. The staff overall is really attentive and service was great. While there is a lot of time share presentations at the resort, we were never asked or pressured to participate. The pools and waterslides were a lot of fun. We look forward to going back. ”

love CABO and RANCHO

I truly love to stay at the GS Residences at Rancho San Lucas. Even though the property is only about 30% built out, it has tons of great activities, pools, bars, restaurants, and of course - the Spa. I go every year and never regret it!”

Peaceful

Great property. Gorgeous. Great location. Only downside is slow wifi. They need to work on that. Also, a little aggressive on the time share sales side. Otherwise. Great stay and beautiful rooms. ”

5 to 4 to 1 Star

I give the resort 5 Stars. I give the staff 4 Stars. I give the Pesty Sales Team 1 Star. I went through 5 Price reductions and 7 presenters. They did not want to take NO for an answer! I will return again via Thirdhome but not take the sales presentation!”

Amazing

This 3 Bedroom Penthouse is spectacular! The master bedroom was amazing! You could literally see the ocean while soaking in the master bath tub. Lots of living space The resort is private, not crowded, which we loved. It's almost like you have the resort to yourself. The resort staff was great, ESPECIALLY the entertainment crew!!! We loved karaoke, our daily poker tournaments, and the water slides were the biggest hit with our 5 and 7 year old. We also enjoyed kayaking in the lagoon. The food and drinks were amazing, along with the spa. Can't wait to return. ”
