Five on-site restaurants mean that every mood and palate can be accommodated. The resort’s main restaurant, 12 Tribes, serves upscale Mexican fare and fresh seafood with a stunning sea view. One floor below is Maydan, serving a buffet breakfast (extra) in the morning and then becoming a beach club that offers lunch and snacks later in the day. For guests who are relaxing at the pool and want a drink, sandwich, salad, or light snack, Okianus — with a swim-up bar — is just a few feet away. Trattoria & Sushi Bar serves up great Italian and Japanese fare, and to round out the quintet, The B is a casual bar that offers snacks and delicious pizza.
Cabo San Lucas is famous for its beach and water activities, and the concierge at Casa Dorada Resort & Spa can help you plan anything you like. Whether it’s snorkeling, diving, sailing, deep sea fishing, flyboarding, kayaking, sightseeing, golf, biking, an eco-tour, or riding an ATV through desert canyons, just say the word, and you’ll get all the help you need to plan a great outing.
“The main strip of bustling downtown Cabo San Lucas, Larazo Cardenas, is just a ten-minute walk from the resort. Popular party beach clubs are nearby, so the atmosphere is fun and lively, and there is always music in the air. Stroll the strip, sample the great restaurants and bars, and get unique gifts and souvenirs for yourself and your friends and family back home.
A must-see for visitors to the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula is El Arco, a stone arch which is part of the dramatic rock formations — called Land’s End — that jut out into the waters of the Sea of Cortez. Guests can take a water taxi or rent kayaks to get there and spend the day exploring, snorkeling, relaxing on Playa del Amor, and drinking in the spectacular Mexican sunshine and scenery.
