HI.. I'm going to jump in here too..

I am getting married in a Villa in Pedregal. We're having about 50 people as well.. and wanted to have our own private party. 1st off on the Pedregal noise issue.. we've had friends stay there.. and you do first get a warning. Our friends found, they really aren't as strict as you think. And it really depends on the time of year your having your wedding.. as to how much their going to crack down on you. (busier times, they're obviously stricter) We opted to take our chances.. and just rented a bigger Villa because we expect the party will go into the early morning hours. Nice thing is we can move the party inside if we have to.

There are several fees associated with having it at a Villa so be aware you'll have to pay homeowners fees, event fees and such.. but for us.. it's what we wanted so we just factored it in.

If you have any specific questions.. I'd be happy to help out, just shoot me a message.. and my WC gave me a list of good Villa's for weddings depending on size so I'll try to find that!

We chose the Corridor because you can swim in the beach and I liked the bigger resorts. I didn't want to be in Cabo San Lucas. I know our guests will travel into Cabo San Lucas to sight see, so this way they can experience a couple different areas. Plus, we're having our Welcome Dinner in San Jose. So they'll really get a taste of all of Los Cabos.

Yeah.. I fell in love with Pedregal. .it's gorgeous.. so we're dealing with the noise thing, and really not overly concerned. And trust me.. I live in Chicago and our friends are all a bunch of boozers - so as my fiance likes to say "they ain't leavin, till they're heavin".. (he's kidding I hope)
My WC actually got married at Villa Lands End.. said it was fantastic. It's right next to ours.. (they had about 70 guests I believe)
Our Villa is 12,000 sq. feet and has 6 bedrooms.. So we're having what would be our wedding party stay at the house with us.. our closest friends.
It's a different beast then going the resort route.. but I believe a little more intimate.
We decided to go this route because we had friends get married in Cabo last year at the Marquis.. It was gorgeous.. but we wanted to be a little different.

I stayed at Villa Del Palmar and my wedding was at the Sheraton. The only problem with Villa Del Palmar & Villa Del Arco is if you want a beach wedding it's pretty busy. IF you get married at Villa Del Palmar, they are buildling a new resort on the left of the resort, so right now there is little traffic on that beach. The good thing about Arco and Palmar is if your group wants to party all night it's a short cab ride to down town Cabo and you can go to the clubs there.
