After reading all the reviews of resorts nickel & diming people to death, my husband & I decided to go with something more authentic and cozy. The Bungalows definitely delivered! The rooms are nice and clean; we unfortunately had to move from the room with the outside hammock to a "regular" room after a few nights, but it was still nice. The pool was lovely and relaxing, and kept at a comfortable temperature. The food was of course delish, and Eric and the staff make you feel right at home. It was a bit of a walk to the water, but it was also nice to be able to escape the Cabo madness. It'd be nice if they had a little bar set up in the evenings for those that like to relax by the pool with a drink, but of course you can have your own stash in your room (which is nice). A mellow bar for guest might be nice for meeting other guests, assuming the clientele was mellower than your average Cabo visitors :-)
