This foodie-favorite Los Cabos all-inclusive resort shines bright with a Michelin star

Grand Velas Los Cabos is one of the few all-inclusive resorts in the world to have a Michelin-starred restaurant

All-inclusive resorts may not be for everyone, but these days they are certainly designed for foodies. Well, at least a few of them are,
and the ones that were created with gourmet cuisine in mind are just as wow-worthy as traditional luxury resorts.

This has not always been the case, as the reputation for all-inclusive resorts in the past has been more about buffet lines and mediocre
menus.

But times have changed as all-inclusive resorts have started to prioritize the culinary experience, making food and beverage programs reason enough to book.Take, for example, Grand Velas Los Cabos.

Arguably my favorite all-inclusive resort in Los Cabos (combined with its adults-only sister resort, Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos), this resort got the details right.

From the glass of champagne on arrival to the sprawling suites, private plunge pools and, now a Michelin-starred restaurant, I’m always looking for a reason to get back to this stellar luxury all-inclusive resort in Los Cabos.

The entire resort experience begins with a glass of complimentary champagne on the lobby terrace overlooking the pools and the
ocean. Vacation mode is instantly activated. But this is only the beginning.

The entire vibe of the resort is relaxed, yet upscale, with tiered pools and breezy, open-air spaces. Restaurants are decorated in
different styles, so you feel like you’re getting something new with each experience.

The oceanfront pool is reserved for adults only, while the upper two pools are family-friendly. I love a resort that can play to all demographics without one feeling too overwhelmed by the other.

The beach is small, but lovely, however like most beaches in Los Cabos, this one is unsafe for swimming.

The Rooms

The Grand Class Corner Suite is  fantastic. All rooms at Grand Velas Los Cabos are suites, but the Grand Class Corner Suites are the closest to the ocean and come with plunge pools on the terrace.

The starting room category is the Ambassador Suite, which has ocean views and starts at 1,000 square feet. All rooms are fully
all-inclusive, which means all food and all top-shelf liquor. Mini bars are fully stocked with beer and wine and all rooms come with a complimentary bottle of tequila.

Michelin restaurants in Mexico

This is where Grand Velas Los Cabos truly shines. The resort features several specialty restaurants, including French, Italian, and casual
pool fare. But the standouts for me are Velas 10 and the now-Michelin-starred Cocina de Autor.

Cocina de Autor is the shining star these days, serving an eight-course tasting menu and wine pairing. Every dish in this gastronomic
journey is a surprise as two Michelin-starred chef Sidney Schutte flexes his masterful skills.

The WellnessSE Spa is one for the record books, with customizable aromatherapy and pressure. Each massage is prefaced with a Water Ritual, which
is a classic hydrotherapy circuit with steam rooms, sauna, ice rooms, and a massage pool.

The resort is recommended for couples and families, particularly those with a discerning taste for great food. For those who want
an adults-only experience, Grand Velas Boutique Hotel is everything you’ll love about the original, with more intimacy and quiet.Source: Yahoo News
