Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos launches 'ultra-luxe workation'

March 8, 2024

The adults-only Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos resort in Mexico has created a six-night couples' workation package costing almost US$20,000. Jenny Southan reports

The new "ultra-luxe" C-Suite Workation package being sold at the Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos claims to be "redefining the work-from-anywhere culture of today’s professional landscape".

In addition to a six-night stay in a 185 sqm Grand Class King suite, the hotel has curated a selection of amenities to help people be more productive while in a leisure setting. These include 24/7 IT support, a custom snacks and drinks bar, and ergonomic desk (which you'd expect to find in almost every hotel room anyway), although in this case it comes with a laptop stand (not pictured here).Grand Velas Boutique Los CabosIn the images provided, the desk has been placed on a a private ocean-view terrace where apparently you can see  whales swimming in the sea while working. There is also a secluded plunge pool for dips between conference calls but Globetrender wonders if there is an awning for shade as no one can work at a laptop in full sun.

As you'd hope, there is an in-suite printer, super-fast wifi, and ample power outlets across the suite to ensure that devices are charged at every moment. If in need of a special device or appliance, the team at Grand Velas Boutique can acquire it for you.Grand Velas Boutique Los CabosFor those struggling to get into the groove, guests can receive a pre-agreed wake up call and a tray of breakfast delivered to the room with coffee and Mexican pastries. A private boardroom is available upon request.

To help keep stress at a minimum, there are also personalised morning wellness activities, in-suite aromatherapy oils to clear the mind (lemongrasss or eucalyptus, perhaps?), refreshing skin care products and a day at the hotel’s SE spa. Fitness instructors are on hand to lead private stress-free stretch class on the beach or in the hotel’s cutting-edge gym.

The spa offers remote workers the signature “Flowing with the Ocean” treatment designed to soothe and rejuvenate. This offering begins with the Ocean Sounds Signature massage, a unique blend of sound therapy and personalised massage techniques aimed at deep relaxation and energy balance.

Vibrating bowls harmonize the heart rate while releasing spinal tension, followed by a tailored massage to ease muscle tightness. The journey continues with a Cellular Hydration Facial, an intensive treatment that leaves the skin soft, smooth, and hydrated. The experience is rounded off with targeted relief for tech-neck tension.

Grand Velas Boutique Los CabosThe "C-Suite Workcation" at Grand Velas Boutique Hotel costs US$18,954 for two adults and also comes with roundtrip airport transfers.

Is it worth it? Grand Class King suites typically cost from US$11,364 for six nights with a minibar, Nespresso coffee maker and gourmet tea, welcome bottles of wine and mezcal, aromatherapy diffuser, daily spa amenities and a 24-hour personal concierge.

Opened January 2024, the Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos is a new resort with 79 suites, a two-star Michelin consulting chef with creative dining experiences, wine selection inspired by the proximity to Mexico’s fine wine region, and innovative spa treatments inspired by Mexican culture.
