Clients looking for upscale accommodations where they can do
business or take their children should appreciate the new Faro del
Cabo Grand Class All Inclusive in Los Cabos.
The new property offers such bonuses as a la carte restaurants
and unlimited golf. The resort, which opened Sept. 14, is the
latest and first all-inclusive offering from Mexico-Hospitalidad
Latina Group. Other hotels in the group include Fenix Hotel in
Guadalajara and Hotel Playa Real in Mazatlan. Faro del Cabo’s key
market is the Western United States, according to Jose Louise
Toledo, sales and marketing director for Faro del Cabo Grand Class
All Inclusive. The resort is courting the upscale market, ages 35
and older, including honeymooners, golfers and meeting and
incentive groups.
