Great Location, Resort Needs Attention
Casa Darada is located in an excellent location close to all of Cabo's downtown restaurants and excitement. The resort itself is a great design and layout overall. The staff is fair at best. They do just enough to keep you from frowning to much. The condition and maintenance of the resort is not good. The pool coping is cracked and or falling off in some places. The tile work around the swim up bar looks like a Home Depot morning class made their first attempt at tile work. The air conditioning was not working 3 out of the 7 days in the fitness center. The steam room in the spa would never put out steam except once an hour for about 3 minutes. The water was shut off for a full day during our stay. We never could find out why. We stayed at the pool bar, watching for falling tiles, with the other smelly guests and made bets on when we could shower again. The fan over our bed sounded like a Velociraptor in attack mode. We had dinner in the main restaurant and ordered the lobster. The presentation was beautiful. The lobster itself was so poorly cooked it was like rubber. We used a left-over lobster the next day as a pool toy which we tossed around and yes, it floated. Actually we still have it here at our home and the dog plays with it.
The resort itself has a lot of positives but poor management and maintenance make this a 3 star experience.
