"We are an international family and are traveling extensively throughout the world. Montecristo has been an outstanding experience, a hidden diamond in a privileged secluded location with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. Although the Resort complex is a time share, Montecristo villas as a private community, which gives it a lot of value as you can use the vast dining infrastructure of the different resorts while living in your own villa with private heated pool and jacuzzi and high end amenities. We rented a week from Dec 20 to 27, 2017 through Ted Mc Donald ("Tomasito"), who is a very well known co-proprietor and outstanding host, giving us by far above average attention and value during our stay: Ted helped us to get a very nice location within Montecristo, and procured us a personalized concierge, Karen, who is very attentive of all customer needs. This year, the whale season started early and we could literally see them from our villa without having to charter a boat. A fabulous experience! Some recommendations: although Ted offers you free SUV pickup at Los Cabos airport, it is recommended to rent a car during your stay, in order to have adequate mobility. There is transportation within the resort complex, but sometimes shuttles take time to arrive and/or drop you off. While there are plenty of dining options available, the upscale restaurants are reserved for adults (which is fine). That's why we loved to cook at our villa, again to buy groceries you preferably would have a car to drive to Cabo San Lucas (15' aprox.). All in all highly recommended, we will definitively return! Thanks a lot Ted and Karen for making our Christmas stay an outstanding gift!"

Great View, Good Host, Good House

The property is in Montecristo Estates Luxury Villas. This is a group of 100 plus identical homes with a private pool and hot tub. We asked for a higher up home with a view. The view was spectacular. The host was responsive with all questions and needs. We did not do the all inclusive. The food at the hotels below the house was good. This is the all inclusive and it is not buffets. The properties are very well organized. Not the typical corridor location. You must drive down into town, this location is above Pedregal. A car is not required if your staying at the resort. You do not get the house in the photos. You get one of the identical houses in the resort. The houses are as advertised. As with most resorts in Cabo, they sell time shares (at the hotels), just say you already did the preview and they leave you alone, not super aggressive. They do not bother you at the house. We love the view and would go back.

Paradise In Cabo

Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived. The photos do not do this property justice. Montecristo is the perfect villa. Our kids enjoyed our private swimming pool and hot tub. The views from Montecristo are unmatched in Cabo. The sunset from you private pool is explainable. Ted contacted us to make sure check in went smoothly and to make sure we didn't have any issues with the property. You will not be disappointed at all with this property or with Ted!

The perfect getaway

The villa was wonderful for our family of six, 2 kids and 4 adults. The accommodations were just as “Ted” said that would be but I must say the pictures online didn’t do the Villa and view justice. I was pleasantly surprised. Also very quiet and peaceful in the villas and we enjoyed the private pool. With 2 young kids Ted had arranged to have a safety fence put in place. Our personal concierge Karen Ramirez was amazing and we definitely ask for her again. The cleaning crew was also very professional. Overall great resort and no real reason to leave the resort. For planning purposes if you want to prestock your villa you can ask about this option upfront. Ted was also very responsive before and during trip and knows the area extremely well. We would definitely be reaching out for our next stay in Los Cabos.

Perfect week!

We stayed 1 week in the Montecristo Estates and it was absolutely perfect! Ted was incredibly responsive and resourceful prior to our arrival and checked in very regularly to make sure all was well (and it always was). I had never experienced anyone like Ted before through VRBO. Our personal concierge was Gonzalo and he booked all our daily pool and dinner reservations. Check in and check out was at our villa and that was extremely efficient and easy. We would do the same thing again without reservation.

Million dollar view and wonderful service!

Ted, on the front end, was very helpful in arranging the villas to meet our needs. We had 16 ppl and we wanted the villas side by side, and he was somehow able to pull that off. He also arranged transportation in a mercedes sprinter van equipped with AC and...Cold beer! Arrival was a little shaky because we arrived early, but Daniel (Our awesome butler) was able to check us in at the villa so we wouldn't have to bring our bags to the main office while there were prepping the villa. Daniel gave us his cell number, so anything we needed was only a text away. Whether it was spa, golf, cabs, restaurant reservations, or excursions. The only negative was room service. We bought the platinum all inclusive deal and thought we'd get grey goose bottles, but they always would bring it in plastic cups. Also you had to wait either 25 min or 45 min between room service calls. I understand their policy on doing this so they can help other people. But I would recommend they take all calls and just tell the customer there will be a longer wait due to other guests. Overall though, it's a spectacular villa and an amazing view. We will be back for sure.

Amazing vacation!

We went down to Cabo as three families to celebrate a major anniversary. All of us were blown away with the Villas and layout. Large bedrooms, tons of bathrooms including an outside pool bathroom, huge decks to lounge both balcony and poolside. The infinity pool was so warm it felt like a giant hot tub! The kid's swam for hours without getting cold. Housekeeping was great supplying fresh pool/shower towels each day. We did the premium AI package and that was the only way to go! Delicious meals, cocktails, and room service included. We were able to enjoy these benefits at virtually every pool, restaurant, and lounge throughout the entire Pueblo Bonito resort family. Our favorite breakfast/lunch spot was the Clubhouse at Quivira. Food and views were something special. Special thanks to Ted "Tomasito" for answering my endless questions before the trip. He helped get everything aligned and even secured a villa close to the market so it was an easy walk and we didn't have to rely on a shuttle van. All in all one of the best Mexico trips we've taken!

Wonderful property with outstanding view of the Pacific Ocean

We just returned from a fantastic week staying in one of Ted's units at Montecristo Resort. We have stayed in a few different condo's in and around Cabo San Lucas and San Jose Del Cabo but none of those hold a candle to Montecristo. The resort is first class all the way offering every amenity you could every need or want. The grounds are immaculate as our the facilities. The food and service is impeccable and having several different resorts to visit was a huge plus. We could enjoy the pools at the quieter Pacific side or go to the Pueblo Rose and sit on Medano Beach to enjoy the craziness of Cabo. The unit is well done and extremely spacious. Having a private pool, jacuzzi, and large kitchen was another plus if you wanted to hang out and enjoy some down time. Having daily maid service was also a great perk. Ted is an awesome host and will help take care of anything you need. The private concierge is also super helpful for dinner reservations or any tours/things you may want to do while in Cabo. We will definelty be back and will only work with Ted!

Beautiful

A small hiccup on on check in but they were quick to resolve same and the rest of the trip was amazing. The property was beautiful and Ted and our concierge Gonzalo were so helpful with anything we needed during our stay.....shuttles, taxis, dinner reservations whatever just ask. We have stayed in a lot of the Pueblo Bonito properties and this was by far our favorite to date. Can’t wait to go back.

Truly Paradise

Our short stay at Montecristo was nothing short of fabulous. The accommodations and concierge service was far beyond what we have experience in the past. The villa was incredible, and the view of the pacific was breathtaking. The resort restaurants lived up to their reputation therefore we stayed on property. Thanks Tomasito for your assistance and hospitality. Look forward to our return.

Great overall experience!!!

Ted was amazingly responsive and helpful with my many questions. We really enjoyed our stay at the villa. It was just as the pictures showed, very spacious and very, very clean. Our house keeper was very nice and did a great job. Our personal concierge stopped by every day to see if we needed anything or had any questions. This was a great place to stay!

About the host

Host profile image
About: I've enjoyed the Pueblo Bonito family of resorts for many years, and have been an owner of Sunset Beach Resort since early in 2004. I have several smaller 1/2/3 bedroom units in the Sunset Beach complex, if you really don't need an entire house (or just have overflow & need a private place nearby for a couple or small family to stay) please let me know - I can typically reserve these units within 30 days of occupancy without an issue. I own several other timeshare properties in the Cabo San Lucas area, and feel as though Pueblo Bonito Montecristo Estates is by far & away the best vacation experience for the money - consider the optional All-Inclusive package, as it offer a superb value for the dollar that no other resort I've been to offers!

Why Paraiso Escondido, Cabo San Lucas, B.C.S., Mexico:
Montecristo Estates truly offers "the best of all worlds" in my opinion - it is very private (exceptional security offered at 3 guard gates throughout the passage into the resort grounds & into the Montecristo Estates entry), it is a very quiet place, but certainly isn't boring or dull due to the fact you have your own swimming pool with an infinity edge (fantastic views of the Pacific & other resort areas below), your own spa on the upper deck & a full kitchen with indoor/outdoor eating spaces. The resort will do your grocery shopping for you if requested (additional charges apply), or you can have a private chef come prepare meals for your whole family in the comfort of your Villa...or you can choose from 11+ restaurants onsite, or go into town and eat any meal at Rose or other PB Cabo resorts - or any great restaurant in Cabo that you love!

What makes this property unique

The Unique Benefits at this Villa:
**Impecable maid service every day - they do a fantastic job on a large house consistently! **Optional All-Inclusive Plan - a great value for the money & a special discount offer that typically reduces that standard cost by around 30%! **Lots of open space in the living areas in this home - both indoors & out! **Astounding views of the Pacific Ocean, and during winter months (late December - April) the annual migration of grey whales frolicking in the water is a "bucket list" item that you will never forget!!!
