The Bar/Lounge at ME Cabo

"” Sumptuous white lounge chairs, daybeds and throne-like chairs are fanned out around the perimeter, and flanked by the DJ booth"

"The 162 rooms include flat-screen TVs and minibars, and many feature lovely ocean views"

"More South Beach, Miami, than Mexico, this style-heavy resort has two pools and an outdoor bar and club scene that will disturb light sleepers"

"The property features some of the area's hottest destinations, including the Beach Club and the Rose Bar, for DJs and drinks both day and night"

"At night, local scenesters, DJ groupies, and hotel guests mingle as torches and fire pits blaze in the Passion Club Lounge—beware of rooms above the club unless you're planning on pulling all-nighters"

"Guests gather by the beachfront pool where oversize daybeds perfectly accommodate this lounge atmosphere"

"Active types can rent a kayak or spend time paragliding direct from the beach, but few guests get beyond ME's tetris puzzle of white loungers and (pricey) cabanas, the handsome cocktail-wielding staff, or the DJ-led dance parties that begin early and go on until sunset"

"(Avoid all rooms in the vicinity of the Passion lounge and Nikki Beach, and book a higher floor to avoid as much reverberation as possible"
