champagne taste on a beer budget

Hey there, luxury seekers! Today, let me take you on an escapade my sister and I stumbled upon at the enchanting Nobu Hotel in Cabo. Get ready for a tale of unexpected perks, sibling fun, and a sprinkle of pure luck.

After a day sun drenched on the beaches of Cabo, our adventurous spirits in full swing, and a birthday to celebrate, my sister and I thought we’d spoil ourselves a little by grabbing dinner at Nobu. Upon our arrival, we were ushered into an office wherein we learned about an exclusive tour of the grounds with promises of gourmet delights and a spa treat, all on the house.

Our curiosity was piqued, but as the saying goes, "nothing in life is free," so we naturally anticipated a catch. It felt reminiscent of those timeshare pitches—a sit-down session, a pitch, and the hope that someone bites. We decided to take a chance, shrugged our shoulders, and thought, "You know what, f*** it." We signed up for a slot the next morning. Little did we expect it would unfold into such a luxurious experience.

Stepping into Nobu Hotel was like entering a realm of pure indulgence—scents of exquisite dishes tantalized our senses, setting the stage for a culinary journey like no other. We started the day with a complimentary breakfast that began with a parfait bowl, continued with a fluffy waffle, and ended with half a dozen scrumptious muffins.

Then, we embarked on a property tour that felt like a peek into a celebrity's life— we saw where Simone Biles had her wedding, explored every corner of the hotel, soaked in its lavish amenities, and even stepped into one of the rooms. But the real cherry on top? A spa session that whisked us away into a realm of pure indulgence. From serene massages to revitalizing treatments, we were enveloped in luxury. It was an oasis of pampering. The cost? Declining a pitch from the tour guide to buy a room at the hotel… I am after all, a broke law student.

Shoutout to my sis—my partner in crime and fellow aficionado of life's little luxuries.

Here's to stumbling upon unexpected treasures, relishing life's finer moments, and creating memories that resonate with adventure.

Until next time, live the high life—even if it's just for the day!

Catch you later,
