Jorge was amazing! Very nice apartment and clean! Great for the price

Loved the size of the room, pool deck, location, security, friendly staff
No dishwasher or microwave, lots of street noise at night. No laundry. Bed could have been a been a queen instead of a double. Sofa bed was uncomfortable. Skimpy on supplies like toilet paper, paper towels, no kitchen towels.

We stayed in E101 for 10 days in Jan/ Feb for a business trip
This was an ok building IF you get an upper floor for a shorter stay
Amazing location in the heart of cabo san jose- restaurants, galleries, 30 mins walk to beach
New building - new everything- meaning clean and fresh
Big spaces for a 1 bed
Relatively well equipped
2 bathrooms for a 1 bed
Nice rooftop pool terrace
Prompt staff text responses
I’m in CSJ regularly for business and i would risk trying an upper floor unit next time due to the location and new building.
We were in a ground floor unit which never saw the sun. No exterior space. No privacy. All E and D units are fully exposed to corridor traffic and street/ maintenance traffic meaning you cannot raise the blinds on either side of the apartment.
No sunlight makes for a VERY cold and dark stay, especially if you are on a working trip
Carpark is directly below and 6 am garbage pickup noise happens twice a week
Bed was very small- smaller than a double- but bedding was good. Bed frame was a double
Washer / dryer was missing, but hook up was there.No place to hand wet towels or clothes or bathing suits. NO hooks anywhere. We asked for a portable “line” and were told no.
Rooftop was nice but pool is not heated and winter nights in the dessert are COLD - meaning the water does not warm during winter months
Staff were responsive but i kept getting “ we are not a hotel” reply when asking for additional hangars, clothes line and cleaning services.

The pull out couch was very uncomfortable even for one person.

the only good thing about this property was its location, very convenient and close to the historic center and art district.
1. Shower Issues:
Initially, the shower was not working properly. The water temperature fluctuated between extremely hot and cold, and during the three days of our stay, we couldn't take a shower.
2. Reporting the Issue:
We noticed this problem on the first evening and reported it to property support. However, we didn't receive any response for 12 hours.
3. Electricity Problem:
On the second evening, there was an issue with the electrical system, causing a complete power outage in the entire apartment. We remained without electricity until the next morning, unable to use any facilities such as WiFi and TV.
4. Maintenance Delay:
The maintenance team promised to arrive at 8 AM the next day, showed up at 9 AM. They could only fix the electrical problem by 9:30 AM. They informed us that a part of the shower system needed replacement, but unfortunately, they didn't have the required part, leaving us without a working shower until our checkout day.
5.Dirty Towels:
Additionally, the towels provided to us were stained with large yellow and black marks. It was nauseating.
6.Summary:
In summary, despite expecting a luxurious service for the amount we paid, we couldn't even receive basic services. This experience was far from the quality we anticipated.

The location of this apartment is great - 2 blocks away from the main town square and on the edge of the Art District. The building security is good and the neighborhood feels safe. Parking is located under the building and is secure. There are many restaurants and tourist shops nearby, and lots of opportunities to stroll in the cool of the evening when the area is very lively. We ate breakfast every day at the excellent French Riviera Bakery & Cafe just a block away. The queen bed was small but very comfortable and the air conditioning was strong - the beach towels were a welcome extra layer on the bed to keep us warm at night. The TV had Netflix, a nice bonus. The shower was very good but it was an adventure to get washed in the short times between too hot and too cold. The Lumina Team and the building engineers promised that the regulator would be replaced. Great balcony and rooftop pool!
Some advice: There is nowhere nearby to get groceries by walking, so drive to the local Comer superstore, which is an amazing place to visit. Don't forget to buy Nespresso cartridges if you drink coffee and don't forget a large bottle of water. You can find pretty good information on San Jose del Cabo online. Don't miss the Art Walk on Thursdays! Saturday night is when the whole town turns out to party in the town square with live bands and dancing until the early morning hours.
We had some challenges on our arrival. We strongly recommend you get the WhatsApp app and enter the Lumina Team phone number BEFORE travelling - then you can communicate immediately with them by phone or txt (you will need to!). We were instructed to send our rental car license plate number to the Team in order to get a guaranteed parking space. We used the WiFi at the rental car desk to send it by WhatsApp. The building code numbers are the same for the front door and the garage BUT... the front door code requires # signs both before and after the number, while the garage code does not. This was not clear from the Lumina Team instructions. After 5 p.m there is no one at the front desk to help you and we arrived after they had left. Luckily a cleaning employee came by and showed us how to get into the garage. The WiFi passcode was not in the apartment - we had to go to a local restaurant, get on their WiFi, send a WhatsApp request, and wait. The usual written guidelines - WiFi passcode, where to get groceries, where the nearest beach is, what restaurants are good, etc. were not in the apartment.
The kitchen is minimally equipped, not really capable of much cooking. There were only 3 coffee cups, 2 glasses, 3 kitchen knives too dull to cut bread, scissors that were rusted open, and only 2 dishwasher soap pellets for a whole week. We hand washed a lot of glasses. The only cooking items were salt, cooking oil, and 3 capsules of Nespresso coffee. The Nespresso machine stopped working at some point so we ended up making cowboy coffee in the morning. Only one dish towel, no washcloths. The problem with the shower is mentioned above.
This is a lovely VRBO with great potential but it needs some serious attention from the Lumina Team in order to be first class. Especially, the client communications need to be upgraded. Not every American uses WhatsApp.

Sehr größer Apartment; Pool auf dem Dach; sehr gute Lage
Keine Haken in den Bädern; Apartment sehr hellhörig;

The pool on the roof with free view all around, amazing with sunrise, the appartement is clean, spacious, and has a complete kitchen, but having the plaza and streets around, full with top choices of coffeeshops, restaurants and bars around the corner of the street there is no reason to cook, good location.
The online check in and check out, the apartment feels the same, very un personal, no warmth, no style, no view, lighted as in public toilets, and nothing to hang bath towels by the shower or anywhere.

Great location, large clean room with 2 bathrooms and an amazing rooftop pool and sun deck.
Off to a rough start. Missed 2 of our 4 days because of hurricane Norma. The property had a few issues, probably because of the hurricane but once we got sorted out we enjoyed our stay.

Todo el concepto esta excelente
Por ser nuevo aun faltan detalles pero bueno todo es cuestión de aplicar las areas de oportunidad pero nosotros para el tipo de viaje que realizamos estuvo más que perfecto

Very nice place! Super modern. Very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Main bed was great (not the sofa bed though...) The fridge was big and super cold. The shower was awesome. I was expecting two showers but our room only had one. I thought they all had two. Either way, awesome place to stay. Secure, gated parking and secure access. We felt very safe here.
The "Sofa Bed" does not deserve to be called a sofa bed. It is just a little sofa, nothing more. It flops down to give you a few extra inches width but no length. I am 5'9" and this bed was WAY too small. I imagine it would only be ok if you are 5 feet tall or shorter. I was pretty upset with this bed. Also, the day we arrived there were no blankets or anything for the sofa. I let them know but they weren't able to get me one till the next day. That first night sleeping on that baby couch was horrible. I ended up getting up at 2am to get a towel from the bathroom because I was freezing and uncomfortable. They brought me one the next morning though so the second night was not so bad (other than my feet hanging 1.5 feet over the armrest of the couch while sleeping). Overall, great stay. I'm complaining about the sofa, but other than that there was not a single thing wrong. 9/10 stars for sure. I would stay here again, but I do NOT recommend anyone considering that sofa as a bed unless you are about 5 feet tall or shorter.

I loved the updated rooms, and the pool the water was cool in the summer months which was a huge bonus. I like the fully automated reception as well
The location was ok and there was no microwave.
5.0
Great stay! The location of this accommodation is fantastic - right in the center of town and a short walk from the plaza. The pool area has a great view, but the bed was actually my favorite amenity. This was the comfiest bedding I’ve slept on in a while! My partner was working remote from the room and was also satisfied with the space.
Nothing, we had a lovely stay
