Hi - i was possibly interested in having my wedding at Fiesta Americana based on a recommendation from a friend, however, I have not seen any postings from anyone on this hotel. I have never been there, so I'd love some input by anyone that may have scouted this location. Pros / cons?? thank you!

its a beautiful resort...some of the main complaints are:

it is really expensive...the food is expensive and i heard they charge like $7 for bottled water..$25 per person for breakfast...

if $$ was not an issue, it is a lovely place.

thank you! i didn't realize it was so expensive and $$ is definitely an issue. i'll look into CaboSurf, Dreams and the Hilton. Any other suggestions?

Are you looking for an AI resort? The CaboSurf is perfect if you have a smaller wedding that you want to rent out the whole place for your family and friends. Dreams, very pretty and a ton of information on this forum about it. Hilton is also very nice, and Emeline (onsite WC) is also very nice, and their wedding rates are pretty good. If your not looking for a AI resort, the Sheraton would be a nice spot.

Please tell us more on what you invision your wedding day like so we can try to better assist you.

off the top of my head:

AI:
Dreams
Riu
Intercontinental
Melia Real

non AI:
Hilton
Sheraton
Cabo Surf
Cabo del Sol
Westin
PB sunset

There is a girl who was married at the Fiesta Americana in the Imperial Suite. Her photos are on Jessica Claire's blog - you may have to look back to July to find them. Gorgeous location, but I have no idea on pricing.

We have done wedding videos at the Fiesta Americana - It is a beautiful venue...
They have "Whale's Terrace" which is right out on the beach and makes a breathtaking setting for the ceremony - Than later they move the chairs away for beachfront dancing under the stars...

The service is first-class - you can't go wrong!

It's been a few weeks since I have logged on, but I wanted to respond to this posting.

I am getting married at the Fiesta Americana in October 2007. We rented the hotel's private beach-front villa for the wedding and reception. It's not cheap, but the food and service is absolutely first class. The villa was $2000/night. Food and bar per guest is looking like $150.

Does anyone know about FA's spa and where I can get information on it?

I took a look at the spa when I was there in October on our scouting trip. They offered different types of massage, body wraps, facials, mani/pedi, etc. I remember thinking the prices were the same as in CA... not cheap. But that's on par with this hotel.

Your WC should be able to get you a copy of the spa services. I'll also ask mine.
