Dreams Cabo Brides

[jmac]

Hi there everyone,

 

New to this site - and new to forums in general! I am currently trying to figure out where to have my wedding next April and have my eye on Dreams in Cabo. Just a few questions for those of you who have been there - hoping you can help me out!

 

When they say the ocean is 'unswimmable' - what exactly does this mean? Can you not even wade it whatsoever, or are they saying don't go in and do laps? Myself and my guests are definitely beach/ocean people (I grew up on the east coast of Canada) and not being able to go in the water would be a total downer.

 

What is the nightlife like at the resort? We will most likely have quite a few singles coming with us who like to have a good time - just wondering if this place is more geared towards families?

 

How far is Cabo San Lucas? Are the cabs really 25 dollars each way?

 

Thanks! Just trying to find out as much information as possible about lots of different locations/resorts before making my final decision.

I was just married at the Dreams last month. My wedding really was the wedding of my dreams! The staff is fantastic, the food is good and the wedding coordinators are awesome! There are very few beaches in Cabo that are swimable due to the strong undertoe. You cannot get in the ocean at the resort as it is extremely dangerous. We did our TTD at one of the "swimable" beaches about 5 minute drive from the hotel and i still almost drown. But the pools at the resort are amazing!
 

As for nighlife at the resort they have a "night club" that stays open until 2 or 3, i didnt go while we were there but all my girlfriends went a few times. They had a good time but i dont think its anything like the clubs or nightlife in town.

 

And it really is a $25 cab ride each way to and from Cabo. It got pretty pricey to go back & forth, that was one of the downsides of the resort but we were happy mostly staying at the resort anyways.

 

But when it came down to the wedding it was INCREDIBLE! I would not have changed anything , here is a link to some of our Pro Pictures if you want to see how the wedding turned out and how perfect the resort it http://blog.faberphotography.com/destination-wedding/dream-wedding-at-dreams-los-cabos-mexico/2011

 

Hope this helps

Hmm, the night club. I thought it was awesome cause it was like having our own night club with all my family and friends and partying all night, so that was great, but if I was there just with my husband or a group of girls, I think we would have gone downtown instead.

 

We used the bus to get downtown, like $1/.50 per person, It is definately used mostly by locals. So it is a bit of adventure, on the way back from town when we were tipsy/drunk etc. we did the cab thing to be a bit safer, but yes it was $20-$25, be sure to ask the rate before you get in.

Hi Ladies,

 

We just got back from Cabo and I have to say that I had the time of my life and the wedding of my dreams. Please don't worry about anything. Everyone at Dreams is extremely helpful and capable. They will make sure that your wedding is just as you have envisioned.

 

Magda rocks! She is awesome, friendly and resourceful.

 

I am waiting for photos to write the review.

 

Cheers,

Ladies - did any of you get your hair and makeup done by Dreams, that's included in the package? If so, where you satisfied with how it turned out. It would really help if you can PM me some pictures as well. Thanks in advance!

I used the Hair, it was fine, I had a pretty simple style, and what I called Hair Managers watching the process and making suggestions along the way.
