Paradero Todos Santos - Exclusive Experiences Included

If you’re considering Paradero Cabo as your next luxury escape, don’t. For the staggering price of $1,100 per night, we expected impeccable service, well-curated experiences, and spacious accommodations befitting a high-end retreat. Instead, we endured disorganization, lackluster service, overpriced mediocrity, and outright negligence. Paradero is a place that prioritizes aesthetics over actual hospitality. Pros: • The landscape is undeniably beautiful, though the grounds aren’t as expansive as the price tag suggests. • The restaurant (which is in the Michelin Guide but not Michelin-starred) had solid food—except for a serious food safety issue that made me sick. • Cesar is the only reason this review isn’t a complete zero. His service was exceptional, and he deserves the one star I’m giving. Cons: 1. Overpriced, Unreliable Transportation – Paradero charges $360 for roundtrip airport transfers, but they didn’t even show up on time. We landed to find no driver and no response for four hours. And as if that weren’t bad enough, they charged us twice. 2. No Food Upon Arrival – After a long, frustrating arrival, we got to the hotel at 11 PM, only to be told there was no food available. This crucial detail was never communicated beforehand, so we had to wait until 7 AM the next morning to eat. 3. Service Collapse – While service started off fine, it completely fell apart by the weekend, likely because of Valentine’s Day crowds. But for a “luxury” hotel, this is inexcusable. 4. Tiny Rooms – For a huge development in the middle of the desert, we were shocked at how small the rooms were. There’s no justification for this when you have unlimited land to work with. 5. Lackluster, Overpriced “Experiences” – The Temezcal was decent but way too expensive. The art walk was laughable—the guide knew almost nothing about the art. I would’ve gotten more insight from a quick Google search. 6. Disorganized Communication – They create an itinerary for you but don’t even follow it themselves. Every experience felt like a logistical mess, and you’re left scrambling for answers. 7. Transportation Scams (Again) – Even beyond the airport debacle, their local transportation was unreliable and outrageously overpriced. If you wanted to go anywhere outside their limited schedule, you had to pay $30 one way. 8. Food Safety Violation – I Got Sick – The restaurant, which is in the Michelin Guide, served pickles on a copper plate. Acidic foods react with copper, making it unsafe to eat—which I found out the hard way when I got sick after the meal. The fact that this happened at a place trying to position itself as a fine dining destination is beyond unacceptable. For the price of a true five-star resort, we were met with poor service, tiny rooms, overpriced experiences, and a blatant disregard for food safety. Paradero is all about the aesthetic, with none of the substance to back it up. Save your money and book literally anywhere else.

to Cabo at least twice a year and stayed in so many high end resorts (Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton, NOBU, The Cape, Esperanza, Viceroy, Le Blanc) and absolutely never experienced what we experienced here. ROOMS: NO HEATERS gets extremely cold at night especially going to the bathroom since the bathroom is not part of the room and u literally have to go outside! Also be prepared that rooms in the back/backyard have NO PRIVACY and UNSAFE…some workers from the field will be walking around and creeping on you. While I was showering I had some man hide in bushes and watch me shower. good luck taking a bath in the tub that is outside because someone will creep on you. ABSOLUTELY NOT okay! I even recorded a video of it. SERVICE: -0/10 We never got greeted at the lobby they just left us hanging the guy barely even spoke English and was talking on the phone. No one showed us around the property they just told us the room number and we had to go find ourselves. RESTAURANT: be prepared to wait for ur food for about an hour and not the fact they will get it right from the first time. this is NOT a 5* hotel or restaurant the only 5* is the price tag. For this price, I’ll rather stay in Four Seasons in Cabo where service is 5* guaranteed. My sister been wanting to come visit this hotel for so long I told her to cancel and not waster her money and time here.

Wow. What a beautiful property. I celebrated my 35th birthday and the staff was absolutely fantastic and efficient at handling logistics from airport pick up, car service into town and making reservations. The hotel experiences were amazing as well. My friends and I loved the sunset beach set up which included a nice bottle of wine. I was quite sad to check-out but grateful that I left this vacation feeling super relaxed.

We spent six days, what an amazing, amazing place .. not sure what to rate higher , the architecture of the hotel , the food or the fantastic staff … lots of activity options, but we mostly just stayed at the hotel.. . we love it here , definitely planning to come back !

We loved everything about it ! Service is not perfect but for this unique project of 40 rooms with a michelin start restaurant we were very happy with the overhaul experience and fell in love with this place. It’s a hollisque approch, with spectacular architectural design and gardens. Don’t expect gym and traditional 5 starts expérience it’s has nothing to do with the visions the 2 funders. Read about their story and embark in this creative experience. It’s expensive, but this is what it cost to get a limited access to this hotel that never feels crowded. Bring warm clothes, and comfortable shoes. It get colds at night. We have rented the Catamaran and that was the hight light of our trip ! The food, OMG it’s oustanding ( Michelin star) Bravo for this beautiful project, we loved it

Excellent boutique hotel in the Baja California desert. 1 star Michelin restaurants. Outstanding and spacious rooms. Professional, helpful, and great staff. 10 min from Todos Santos. Highly recommended. Infinity pool with desert view
