Villa La Estancia Beach Resort & Spa Los Cabos Customer Testimonials
From Social Media
We have been to Villa La Estancia several times but on this trip we decided to make one change and that was to rent our villa from Giovanni at Cabo La Estancia. We stayed in a beautiful villa with the best terrace and view we have had to date. It was perfect for two couples and any request was taken care of promptly. Such things as having our villa stocked ahead of time with some grocery items and our favorite beverages gave us more time at the pool. We requested villa cleaning at a certain time of day and that is exactly when it was cleaned. The Cabo La Estancia website has beautiful pictures and descriptions of the villas plus working with Giovanni and Samantha made our vacation very enjoyable. They will also
assist with arranging activities and restaurant reservations. Definitely a five-star vacation!!!
My family and I had planned our President’s week holiday at La Estancia for more than a year and we were devastated when, on the day of travel, our flight was postponed due to an unexpected snowstorm.
When Giovanni and his team learned we would arrive one day later than planned, he PROACTIVELY offered and arranged an extension of our reservation an extra day so we could enjoy the full week we had planned. The Villa, staff, and the view were incredible. Thank you, Giovanni, it was a week we will always remember!
Love this place, been there several times and this was our best. Stayed in villa 3401 and the staff was excellent and very friendly. Something for everyone and the resort was gorgeous. Would highly recommend this villa and resort. Stayed in several 5-star resorts in Cabo, and this is right up there with them. Very safe and clean… the family had a blast and made some wonderful memories!!!
Only a few hours south of Hollywood, in the luxurious, yet exotic, Baja California, Cabo, as it’s known by those who know it best, features your own playground, too: Villa La Estancia.
Loosely translated, La Estancia means “a place to stay,” and that place waits just for you, where the Mexican desert meets turquoise waters, where infinity pools stretch into the Sea of Cortez, and where you can live the life of a jet-setting star.
Buying or renting your own private resort — a villa, condo, or penthouse on Medano Beach — is a not only a place to lay your head, but it’s relaxation and romance that you’ll find under a beach umbrella, or under the stars, before you slide under the covers.
Only a mile from downtown Los Cabos, Villa La Estancia puts you within striking distance of some of the world’s best nightlife, where you can catch a glorious sunset, a glamorous superstar, or fall in love with your traveling companion all over again.
A former fishing village transformed into a celebrity mecca, Villa La Estancia and Cabo San Lucas offer all the richness of a down-haute trip into an exotic world — the thrill of a Third World journey with the luxury of a five-star experience.
Play a round of golf amidst emerald greens, dive with whales at Gordo Banks, or swim with dolphins in crystal water; you can even take a camel ride through the Desert Park Natural Reserve.
Afterward, take in one of the trendy eateries and quaint cafes in and around Cabo, or go shopping at the finest boutiques or fun, local favorites. If neither of these interest you, simply stop altogether, slather on the sunscreen, and soak up the rays.
Don’t forget about the beaches — From the serene beauty of Playa del Amor and the Sea of Cortez to the surfing magnet of Zippers, you’ll find your own spot to spend your days.
Sunny and serene, magical and mysterious, at Villa La Estancia, each privately owned condominium welcomes you with lavish furnishings and all the amenities of home, only here, you’re surrounded by spectacular views that you won’t find anywhere else. Sculpted rock formations will keep you guessing, while nature’s own light shows dazzle from sunrise to dusk.

Why reserve a villa or penthouse through Cabo La Estancia?
When you reserve through the resort directly or another website such as Expedia or Hotel.com, one of the most common misconceptions is with regard to the one-bedroom unit. It is rented as a ‘hotel room’ when, in fact, there are no hotel rooms in the resort.
This ‘hotel room’ is comprised of a 2-bedroom, 3 bath condo, divided into two parts, Side ‘A’ (1 bedroom, 2 bath, kitchen, living and dining areas) and side ‘B’, known as a ‘lock-off’ (1 bedroom, 1 bath, with a separate entrance, 2 Queen Beds or 1 King Bed, depending on the unit).
This is often referred to as ‘The European Plan’ and the problem is both side ‘A’ and side ‘B’ share a balcony, divided by a grass lattice screen.
A client renting through our website, Cabo La Estancia, will never need to share the balcony because we never rent out the ‘B’ side lock-off. We only rent the ‘A’ side, thereby, preserving your privacy. Other sites will not explain this fully and will rent both sides.
Are there benefits of reserving through Cabo La Estancia versus VRBO or other sites?
The benefits of reserving through Cabo La Estancia versus VRBO or other sites are significant:
- When reserving through our website, you will always know which Villa you are renting – no surprises upon check-in. Cabo La Estancia monitors all units on a continual basis throughout the year and, therefore, will know which have been updated and upgraded and will separate the good from the bad.
- Expedia, Travelocity, etc… These sites receive their inventory from the resort directly and operate like a hotel. Rates are typically much higher than reserving directly with us because these sites charge additional fees and taxes.
- VRBO… While this site is a good resource for Villa owners, the downside for the renter is the lack of individual support; you are unable to speak to a live person prior to booking and VRBO assesses a fee at the time of rental. Many guests complain that when dealing with owners, directly, there is a lack of responsiveness.
- Our rates are very competitive, if not the same as dealing directly with the owner and we provide live guest support 24/7 via one of our team members.
- Our On-site Concierge Team is available to you prior to check-in and throughout your stay to assist with dinner reservations, private chef services, excursion reservations and ground transportation referral
- Our rates include all taxes, resort fees and maid service – no surprises, no hidden fees
Have you booked through Expedia, VRBO, Hotels.com and need assistance?
It’s not too late to speak with us about possibly securing a better rate!
For questions regarding a reservation made through Expedia, VRBO, Hotels.com, we, unfortunately, cannot view a reservation unless it was made through our office. You must contact the entity with whom you made the reservation or contact the resort, directly.
However, should you need restaurant reservations, ground transportation or assistance with excursions, please see the concierge information.

Because we are independent of the Resort’s onsite Sales Office/Developer Team, we have other listings available within La Estancia and the Cabo San Lucas area. Many units are, often, quietly listed and can be negotiated for a better deal.
May we use the facilities at Villa del Palmar?
Yes. Guests at Villa La Estancia have full privileges at Villa del Palmar, including use of the restaurants, spa, Kid’s in Paradise program, and the resort activities.
Are there any extra charges?
The rates we will quote to you will be total. There is no charge for using the fitness center, tennis courts, and high speed Internet access (within the Villa) and WiFi in the pool area. Additional charges would include food, beverages, spa services, telephone calls, or activities that you schedule.
Is there also a hotel at Villa La Estancia Cabo?
No. You may see what appear to be hotel rooms listed on various sites like Expedia (called Deluxe Suites). These are the second bedroom of a 2 bedroom Villa. The 2 bedroom Villa has a “lockoff” feature that allows the Villa to be used simultaneously as a 1 bedroom Villa and a Deluxe Suite. A Deluxe Suite has two queen beds and a nice bath. The terrace is shared with the 1 bedroom side of the Villa.
Do I need to rent a car?
No. Most everything is within walking distance or a short taxi ride. The taxi fare to Cabo is currently $9/one way for 4 people (small additional charge for more people). Taxis are readily available and are vans so they will seat a large group. Some people do like to rent a car, which is convenient for shopping, golf, and perhaps a side trip to Todos Santos. Free parking is available at Villa La Estancia.
Is the beach swimmable?
Yes. Medano Beach is considered the swimming beach in Cabo. The beaches on the Pacific side have surf that is too rough for safe swimming. Most of the beaches along the “corridor” (the area between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo) have significant rip currents and are not generally considered safe. There are some exceptions, but check this out if ocean swimming is important to you.
