Our personal and comprehensive restaurant guide is available with every reservation confirmation. But for a primer, Cabo restaurants are everywhere. The variety of cuisines and settings is endless. Some are as fancy and expensive as you'll find anywhere. Two very good ones are at Villa del Arco.

Fresh tasty seafood dinners are plentiful and reasonably priced, thanks to local fishing. "Catch of the day" might be dorado, cabrillo, dogfish, huachinango, pesca fuerta, halibut, parrotfish, sierra, any of several kinds of tuna, or many others whose names are less familiar. Several varieties of shrimp, octopus, abalone, squid, scallops, clams, oysters, crab and sea snails are popular. A nice lobster dinner runs ten dollars and up.

One of many restaurants in Cabo San Lucas.

Seafood tacos are the favorite local "fast food". They can be delicious and cheap, generous chunks of whatever fish was most recently pulled from the water. Or, make it shrimp, clams, scallops or excellent barbecued chicken, pork or beef.

Local produce is inexpensive and delicious, and includes mangos, avocados, limes and other citrus fruits, papayas, cactus fruit, bananas, dates and numerous garden vegetables. Familiar U.S. grocery brands (and California produce) are generally available but much more expensive, and often not as tasty as Mexican versions.

There are hundreds of restaurants in Los Cabos as well as a number of 5-star restaurants at which to eat. Villa del Arco has two excellent restaurants, both overlooking the beach with a spectacular view of  El Arco (Land's End) and the Sea of Cortez -- El Faro (Sushi and seafood) and El Patron (featuring traditional local cuisine and is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner).

Reviews

We liked Villa Del Palmar. It was a good place for the kids, clean and the beach was excellent. The unusual thing was literally everyone there was on an all-inclusive deal except for us. I personally don't like those all-inclusives though and would rather order specific higher end liquor/beer or wine and eat there OR in town when I want without regard to the all inclusive deal...so it worked fine for us! The rooms were nice/spacious and the people friendly! No complaints! It was an excellent vacation.

Great place..the ride was there, the place is beautiful and super clean and every thing else is top notch. The girls were impressed and the bed is big and very comfortable..you spoke the truth. And the view from the room is just about the best in the house.Only the penthouse might have been better.

Villa La Estancia - #1303 Just a note to thank you so much for all of your recommendations regarding our trip to Cabo. I can't tell you how happy and impressed we were with our accommodations. What a beautiful place!!! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect vacation - everything about our trip was first class. Your suggestion about taking a private taxi to and from the hotel was very much appreciated. Our day trip on La Gringa was probably the highlight of our trip. We decided to take a private tour with our group of 7 - probably more expensive but worth every dime. Jose Luis did a fantastic job on lunch, and Arturo and Miguel (Captain and First Mate) were the best in seeing that we were well taken care of. Again, thank you for a wonderful vacation. Will definitely keep you in mind for a future trip to Cabo.

As I sit in Los Angeles, shivering from the cold air, I'm dreaming of the warm breezes that blew into our Villa del Arco room, the amazing salsa, fresh grilled fish and lovely people of Mexico. We were completely overwhelmed when we walked into the end unit and saw the most amazing view of the ocean from our patio doors. Icing on the already sweet cake was having that wonderful personal hot tub on the patio. It was beyond our expectations! We encountered a couple of minor issues but the positive aspects of Villa del Arco far outweighed those issues. We enjoyed being just far enough away from The Office and Mango Deck to not hear all the noise yet it was close enough to walk to when we wanted some action. I was a little apprehensive to pay up front for the condo instead of paying upon checkout but everything turned out wonderful! Thank you again for hooking us up in a ROCKIN' condo and putting an exclamation point on our wonderful girls vaca. LOVE CABO and will definitely use Destination Cabo again. Debbie H

Just a brief note to tell you we LOVED our Cabo vacation. The place was better than we expected. The only thing it was missing was a hanging clock in the kitchen area! All your info about things to do, places to eat, etc was quite useful.

Thank you so much for the use of your condo and all the helpful hints in planning our trip. We had a great week. Hope to come back and visit again The girls had a great time experiencing the night life in Cabo as did we. Thanks Again, John and Jane

From the moment we arrived the place was like "paradise". The unit was beyond unbelievable...can't say enough how much we enjoyed and loved it. From the fabulous views to the spacious and quiet location, to the people that serviced us. One day at the pool, I forgot to sign for the tab, and our server who we basically had the whole time called me and said " no worries I will come to your room". He went out of his way and was always so appreciative. We were not hounded by the "time share" people at all, which was a pleasant surprise. All in all everyone was so gracious and accommodating. We had a fabulous time, and of course sad to leave. Even the transportation company was right on time both ways. And very polite and good drivers. As you know I was a little apprehensive. I would absolutely return again to VDA. It is truly a 5 star resort. Btw, we did not eat dinner there but had breakfast/lunch everyday. The food was to perfection. Thank you for everything.

Good Morning Bob, I just wanted to send you a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the villa. It was beautiful and I couldn't have asked for more. We will be going down next year for a couple of weeks this time and will be in touch with you to secure our stay. As well, we have others that may be interested and will forward your name to them as well. I will be writing a review in the next little bit but I just wanted to send you a quick note to say thanks Shannon
