Built upon hospitality, the Los Cabos area has had major growth in the recent years with the addition of several luxury properties. A new build, opened in April 2018, Le Blanc Spa is an adults only, all-inclusive resort and an oasis of opulence on the Baja Peninsula where the desert meets the sea with uninterrupted year-round sunshine. It didn't take long for this Mexican resort to build a reputation for excellence among sun-seeking travelers.
We arrived in the comfort of a private SUV transfer from Los Cabos airport and were welcomed with this stunning view from the hotel lobby. Each guest is seated upon arrival at an individual check-in desk, masked staff and treated to a welcome drink and a warm pillow for your neck.
A representative from the hotel escorted us up to the floor of our room and introduced us to our personal butler who showed us the features of our room – including the hotel App and comfort menu, offering a variety of specialty pillows, bath salts and more. Each of us was accommodated in luxurious Royale Honeymoon Ocean View Suite. These suites offer a breath-taking view of the resort pools and one of the loveliest beaches in Los Cabos.
The first night the group met at Le Blanc Fire and had a mixologist create one of their signature cocktails followed by dinner at Blanc Italia – the signature Italian restaurant. Our group of attendees for the MIT FAM included advisors from New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Diego.
Welcome Cocktails at Blanc Fire
Day Two we met for a full site inspection of the property followed by a presentation from the Los Cabos Tourism Board, Mexico Planners DMC and Le Blanc Resorts. The rest of the day was at our leisure to enjoy the resort facilities. Some of us opted to enjoy the bars and restaurants while some of us took advantage of pool time! This property has a beautiful swim up bar and plenty of chairs available along the four invigorating beachfront pools. Not sure where to sit? Call over the pool concierge to find a spot for you and set you up with towels and an umbrella!
That evening the group gathered for a Private Sunset tour to El Arco sponsored by Mexico Planners DMC. This was such a fun experience and one of the highlights of the trip! After a transfer to the Marina, we boarded our own private Catamaran and set sail for an adventure. The boat offered a wide bar selection and light snacks while we listen to tunes and admired Cabos spectacular sunset. Our journey was towards Land's End Arch, also known as The Arch of Cabo San Lucas, which was the ideal spot to admire the sunset and beautiful waters of the Pacific!
On our last full day of our trip we each had the opportunity to experience the state-of-the-art spa facility. We arrived one hour early, so we could experience the hotels signature “Water Journey”. The hydrotherapy area is a holistic 'health through water' treatment, inspired by traditional Greco-Roman rituals meant to provide a relaxing and stimulating feeling all over the body. We went from sauna to steam room to ice room. Pausing after each cold and hot phase with a refreshing drink of tea or chlorophyll water. This was a great way to start our spa experience, which was then followed by a fantastic back massage for each attendee.
Our trip ended with a farewell dinner at Blanc Asia which offered Japanese, Thai, and Chinese flavors and techniques swirl in an enchanting restaurant with alluring ambiance. Our butler had previously ensured we had scheduled our COVID test with the resort so we had the proper documentation for our flights back to the US.
This FAM trip allowed us to experience all the resort had to offer with a range of activities, paired with time to indulge in the amenities and fine dining. Thank you again MIT, Le Blanc Los Cabos and Lush Experiences for an unforgettable stay!
