Our "Business Trip" to Cabo (part uno)

We are back from our trip and it went pretty great. For just four days it was surprisingly easy to get to Cabo and back. The whole time we were there we kept saying we were there "on business" but did get to squeeze a little bit of relaxing in there too (man did we need it).

We rented our little Chevy bubble car and headed up the coast 45 min to get to Cabo San Lucas (those of you who have not been there, you fly into San Jose del Cabo). You can take a cab into town for about $50 but since we would be driving around all weekend, we opted for a car).

We stayed in a little hotel, Mar De Cortez, that was quaint and cute. No frills, but very

economic so what should you expect....

The rooms were nothing special. Really just a bed or two, a counter/dresser and a bathroom (I think some suites have a kitchenette). The place was clean and the staff friendly. They have safety deposits boxes and private gated parking in the back. A big plus was they had free WiFi. But there are no phones, TVs, or alarm clocks in the room (which is sometimes nice) but if you stay here and need to stay on a schedule (like we did OR you might if you stay here for the wedding), you might need to bring your cell phone (for keeping time and alarm) or a travel alarm clock.

 

It was right in town with all the restaurants and bars all around, about 2 block from the Marina. Really close to Cabo Wabo.

They had a great breakfast (eggs, potatoes, fruit) for only $2.50, can't beat that!

AND ALL FOR $50 - 70/night!!! For all of our guests who are tight on cash but really want to make it, this is a great option... if you don't mind giving up some luxury and the BEACH.

Our families, Rene and I will be staying at The Solmar Resort the week of the wedding and we encourage all of our guests to stay there too so we can all enjoy our trip together and make it easier for travel and organizing the group.... PLUS Rene and I want to spend all of our time with you all on this special vacation, that is why we invited our favorite people. But for those of you who might not want to spend over $150/night, we are trying to accomadate you all.

I must go to bed, so MORE TO COME ON OUR TRIP......
