Boutique hotel in every sense; there are only 8 casitas and we were the only guests for some nights. The staff attended to anything we needed and the dinners were divine. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Villa de Faro was 4 days of bliss. The villa and all the suites are breathtakingly beautiful. The level of taste that created the villa is apparent in every detail. It is small, elegantly casual, aesthetically built and decorated. We stayed in two casitas, the stone cottage on the beach for 2 nights, so much fun. And a large suite surrounded by gardens and overlooking the pool and sea. We could hear the whales slap the surface at night. Meals were beautifully prepared and served. The staff was a combination of family members and warm friendly hospitality pros. We were made to feel like honored guests from check in to departure. A real treat we will want to repeat.

Awesome!! If you want to feel like you are in a Hemingway book go here

Very remote and beautiful hotel. Words cannot describe the beauty of this gem. Staff is very friendly and the owners make you feel at home Will not hesitate to stay again. Every room is breathtaking

I had a wonderful stay at Villa del Faro--I spent one night solo to recuperate after a girls weekend in Cabo. The pictures dont do the place justice--it is absolutely gorgeous. The staff was friendly and helpful, the food and drinks were great, and my suite (Casa Azul) was private and comfortable. Unfortunately when I stay the weather didnt allow for much swimming, but I enjoyed relaxing by the beach with a book and listening to the waves. Note that this is in a remote area with no restaurants/entertainment in walking distance, if thats what youre looking for. Id recommend Villa del Faro to anyone who want a beautiful and unique getaway.

The hotel is amazing -- rooms are almost all private casas. Basically as good as a suite in a normal hotel, but with your own outdoor space. they have amazing plants and birds -- we had a hummingbird feeder outside our room, and the bird was so tame that it happily ate 12 inches away from me. Quick walk down to the beach. It's a bit tough to swim right from in front of the hotel, but you can easily walk to swimmable spots. Easy access to cabo pulmo and all the surrounding beaches and arroyos. Main drawback is that there aren't really many dining options nearby, especially as driving to cabo pulmo at night would take a while (dirt road, no street lights). I was incredibly happy with the stay, and it's really amazing if you're looking for something more isolated.

Same as most of the other reviews, we were blown away by the villa. The road is an issue. I’m used to driving back roads in Canada and thought an ordinary front wheel drive compact would be fine. Turned out we made it in and out ok but it took twice as long as suggested and we were quite rattled on arrival. Should have rented a Jeep. That said, the place is magnificent and the food stellar. Good value too.

If you love beauty, quiet, stunning night skies, sunrises over the ocean, and open air living, this place is worth the hour's drive on a bumpy dirt road. The Italian-Mexican style villa is a group of structures stitched together by pools and walkways and filled with excellent art. We chose the elegant palapa-style Alberca house with its large open-air living area and kitchen, enclosed bedroom, and 2 separate baths. Be prepared for off-the-grid remoteness (with internet), simple well-prepared food, and more sandy roads to swimmable beaches on the way to Cabo Pulmo, Arbolitos, and Frailes. The gracious hosts make it all work.

The environment was excellent. It was relaxing and unique. The staff was professional and made us feel like home.

Very beautiful secluded location on Sea of Cortez in a very nice comfortable room. It is an hours drive north above San Jose del Cabo, most of the drive on a dirt or gravel road. It is truly off the grid so very limited internet. Breakfast included and optional dinner very tasty. If you want the Cabo party scene or shopping do not come here. There are 8 units so you meet other guests and know their names. The units are in separate buildings with nice landscaping and several inviting places to sit outside. The place was built with a nice design that is tasteful and interesting, like a Spanish villa. Staff provides excellent service and are very friendly and welcoming. Our only regret is that we only stayed 2 nights.

We just spent our entire spring vacation week at this wonderful "B&B - resort" - and returned home rejuvenated and with wonderful memories - all of them tied to this very special property and its beautiful surrounding landscapes and beaches. This very small and remotely located property surprised us with many amenities typically provided by larger 4 star properties. Providing water, power and even Wifi in this remote location is amazing enough already, but beautiful architecture, tasteful decoration and lush gardens made our stay particularly wonderful and we enjoyed every minute there. The big pool and the beaches kept it interesting for our 2 kids. The drive from the airport took us about an hour via the unimproved road - it is in decent condition, but I'd probably wouldn't want to drive it at night for the very first time. Overall - Villa del Faro was a very special place for us and we might be back next year.

I wish we had spent our whole trip here. Im grateful to have had the opportunity to experience this beautiful place. The staff was great, the food was delicious, and the views of the mountains and the sea were breathtaking. I felt relaxed and at home as soon as we arrived. Id like to keep it a secret, but I cant. It is the perfect place to unplug, watch the whales and all the birds.

This is the most beautiful hotel we have been too. Every room / terrace / relax area has a lot of taste, everything is in the details. We booked the cheapest room (Bali Room) and I think its the best one: breathing the fresh air of the ocean when sleeping is a blast, the views are to die for and that open shower is a great experience. The pool is marvelous (my husband said its even better than the pools you see in drug cartels movies ;)) and its view is breathtaking. The breakfast is absolutely wonderful and very filling. The diners ($45) were a bit pricey but very good (also, when you realize how secluded that place is and how far you need to go to do groceries, you understand the price). The fish they served us was so fresh (caught in the morning) that it was worth all the pennies. You should also try their margaritas, they are the best one you will EVER have ($12). To finish, the family over there is absolutely wonderful. Marylin, Mary, Allie and Jeff are SO nice and are doing everything they can to make your stay absolutely perfect. There are a lot of things you activities you can do there: free kayaks, snorkel gears, SUPs ... WALKING ON THE BEACH FOR COUNTLESS HOURS. Cabo Pulmo is 40mn away and awesome divings over there (saw two bullsharks and thousands and thousands of fishes). My advice: rent a SUV or 4x4 to get there as there is about 1hr of dirt road from SJC airport to the Villa.

Off the beaten path: emphasis on beaten - the roads to/from are washboards, so a bit tough in a rented sedan, but well worth the effort. Beautifully located and landscaped: a desert oasis on the beach. Terrific food/staff and overall ambience - almost too good to reveal here: we want to keep it our secret!

To say that this place if fantastic seems an understatement, they took such great care to ensure that we had a great stay and that the rest of our trip was properly arranged. At first, I thought that the long drive on dirt road didn't portent a good trip, but when I pulled into the Villa, all of it changed. The staff is lovely, the food great and the environment mind blowing.

This was a fantastic hotel, beautifully built and maintained. The service could not have been better. I would gladly return.

Villa Del Faro is an oasis in the desert with a gorgeous beach. This is not a hotel, rather a B&B run by an extended family that owns this sprawling ten structure property. An awesome breakfast is included and you can sign up for a gourmet dinner for an additional $45 per day. it's very quiet out in the East Cape area and you must drive a non paved road for an hour to get to Villa Del Faro. A 30 minute drive north gets you to Cabo Pulmo with great snorkeling and scuba diving.
