Now it’s Fodor’s turn. Fodor’s has been in the business for over 80 years, providing valuable insight into the world of travel.

This year’s Fodor’s Travel Awards were recently issued with a variety of categories ranging from resorts to cruises to travel influencers.

If you are a seasoned traveler, chances are you already know what the Waldorf brand is all about. Aimed at always providing a top-notch, luxurious experience for guests, the Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal has succeeded.

It’s no easy feat to be named the best of anything, but this immaculate Waldorf resort was awarded the ‘best hotel’ in all of Los Cabos.

With 91 hotels in the Los Cabos Hotel Association, to be awarded the best is pretty impressive. This 5-star resort is perfectly placed about as far south as you can go surrounded by breathtaking scenery.

But what is it about this place that makes it stand out above the rest?

Unmatched Guest Experiences

From the moment guests arrive, they realize this resort is unmatched compared to the rest. That says a lot since there are so many amazing resorts to choose from in Los Cabos.

When guests first step foot on the property, they will walk through a stone tunnel only accessible to those staying here.

At the end of the tunnel, guests can instantly have a cocktail in hand. In other words, vacation mode has been activated, and you will have a dedicated butler and concierge should you choose to need their services.

Waldorf does a phenomenal job of setting the mood. After a flight from your hometown and a long ride from the airport, guests can jump right into their worry-free vacation before stepping foot in their room.

Speaking of rooms, it’s no wonder why this resort is categorized as a 5-star property. Guests have the option to book a room or suite or splurge even more for a beachfront stay or luxe casita.

There are even private homes tucked away in the hills for the ultimate boujee vacay. Of course, this is a small market of travelers who would opt for this type of stay.

More common are the amazing rooms, each with private plunge pools overlooking Cabo’s vast ocean where guests can order a floater in the pool.

No, we’re not talking about a Caddyshack moment here. We’re talking about a tasty breakfast on a floating tray to start your day immersing yourself in paradise.

The resort is also home to an amazing spa on-site, a swimming pool facing the beach, and some of Los Cabos’ finest resort restaurants.

El Farallon, in particular, has rave reviews from visitors. Patrons will find meticulously crafted menus to indulge in delicious cuisine and adult beverages all while sitting seaside amongst hanging cliffs and crashing waves.

A Top Resort In Mexico And Central America

This Waldorf hotel is not only the top resort in Cabo but one of the best in all of Mexico and Central America.

You might be scratching your head, thinking, “Mexico is not Central America”, and you are correct. However, Fodor’s chose to combine the best hotels in both Mexico and Central America.

Waldorf is in good company with the following resorts rounding out the top 8:

  • Ojalá (Antigua, Guatemala)
  • Itz’ana Resort & Residences (Placencia, Belize)
  • Hotel Terrestre (Puerto Escondido, Mexico)
  • Hotel La Compañia (Panama City, Panama)
  • Casona Sforza (Puerto Escondido, Mexico)
  • Casa Polanco (Mexico City, Mexico)
  • Azulik Tulum (Tulum, Mexico)
