The view when I woke up in the morning was ideal. Lounging on the futon and gazing at the serenity of the waves were two of my favorite things--both of these were on the patio. By far, the best vacation I have been on! This resort is fit for almost anybody.Even in December, the weather was perfect--average of 86 during the day and about high 60s during the night. Also, the front desk staff were very informative and always efficient. All accommodations were great and abundant. Personally I find it hard to sleep well in unfamiliar places--but in Cabo I slept 10 hours a night for a week straight because the super comfortable bed. And I didn't even mention the private beach, which is great for snorkeling. I definitely recommend this condo to anyone looking for a memorable vacation. We rented our place from www.cabocondos4rent.com. Lori was very helpful in helping us!

We've stayed at Misiones for the past several years and we've always enjoyed it. The rooms are a bit dated, but it's a very good price for Cabo. We stayed in room 4209 rented from a private owner. The view from the balcony is awesome! You can see both the arch and the pool. The rooms are condo's so you can grocery shop and get what you need for meals.

The new pool (infinity) is very nice. It is now open with a bartender. His name is Ociel (likes to be called Ozzie). He's very nice and fun to talk with. He makes great guacomole and pico de gallo (very spicy).

We'll go back to Misiones. It's a quite place to stay about 15 minutes from downtown ($15 cab ride). Our passion is fishing. We fished 2 days on The El Budster. Very good fishing crew! We caught our limit in Dorado (8) each day and the 2nd day, we caught and released a pretty sailfish. We bring our vacu sealer and keep all the fish we catch. Bring a hard sided cooler - freeze the fish rock solid and it stays frozen for a good 10-12 hours (no ice allowed). Try it! We now have a freezer full of mahi mahi to last us till next year. :)

We also took our fish to Peacocks for dinner one night. VERY good atmosphere and great meal. Another great place to take your fish is Villa Serena (corridore). Very good food! And, open for breakfast.

We were also located within walking distance to the Sunset Mona Lesa - GREAT place to watch the sunset. Their pizza and wine lounge is very nice. Pizza is very good! The restaurant part - food was OK. But the view is killer.

One more thing -- we booked a sunset cruise on Cabo Blue. It was a beautiful catamaran and we were the only 4 people on it! It's not well known yet. The other catamarans, etc. were packed with people. So - check it out. The guys were great. We booked it from a desk in Walmark (just inside the entrance). We got it for $30 (no dinner) -- open bar. Very fun!

We just got home, and we're already ready to go back.

This was my first trip to Cabo and after reading some reviews on this site, I was not sure what to make of this place. From the first time I stepped into room and saw the view of the arch I knew we made the right choice.
Pros: Big rooms we had 9 people and all slept comfortable.
Pool facing habor with views of arch sunset was amazing.
two beaches one good for snorkeling other swiming or surfing.
free wifi at front desk.
close to supermarkets/costco/walmart
Cons: to get to town you need a rental car or taxi. or you can walk the half mile up to the bus stop.
only one bar open and no restaurant.
small kitchen area.
if you drop anything glass on the tile floor it will break.
lack of chairs by pool
Thats it.

If you are a first time traveler to Cabo San Lucas then you may not want to stay at Misiones. You probably want to stay on Medano Beach in a resort that is near the town.
That being said, Misiones may have the most spectacular view of the arch in Cabo.
We sat out on the balcony every night to watch the sun set and stare at the arch.
About 10 years ago we bought a timeshare at Misiones in the new building. Unfortunately Misiones ran into problems and only now are they finishing and furnishing the new part of the building. So, we had to stay in the old section. After reading all the reviews I was skeptical, but upon our arrival I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms were clean, but sparse and the furniture was over 10 years old but not horrible. We definitely felt comfortable sitting on the sofa and chairs. The bathroom needs some help. We only had housekeeping service twice so we had to hang up our towels to dry. There were no hooks in the bathroom to hang up the towels. The shower curtain was annoying. It was way too thin and flew into us when we showered. They gave us two tv's. One worked and had only 2 channels. The resort had no restaurant. The new pool is finished and really pretty. Pepe opened the bar and barbecue on the weekend. I heard this will become a regular occurrence now. Parking is tight but you you probably won't enjoy yourselves without renting a car.
I've just listed a ton of reasons not to stay at this resort. However, changes are being made. In the next few weeks they are supposed to be opening the new part of the building. If they can upgrade the amenities and offer some kind of restaurant, this could become a very nice place to stay. Although one beach on the south side is only for surfers Misiones does own a small stretch of that beach. They could fix it up for sunbathing and dunking. On the other side of the resort there is a swimming beach where people go to swim and snorkel. It's down a LONG flight of stairs at the bottom of the resort. There are a couple of beautiful swimming beaches very close to Misiones.
If you want to ask questions, just message me for more info. I'll be glad to go into more detail.
