All-inclusive luxury takes an eerie turn as empty resort raises unsettling questions

A dream vacation took an unexpected twist for one couple as they arrived at the Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos in Mexico, only to discover they were the exclusive guests at the luxurious all-inclusive five-star resort. What began as a joke turned into a surreal experience, documented on TikTok by user @freedomhustle, as the couple navigated the empty sun loungers, pools, and surroundings with no other guests in sight.

Cameron and his wife found themselves in an eerily quiet paradise, where the usually bustling resort was devoid of any other visitors. The video captures the couple’s initial amusement turning into a slightly unsettling experience as they roamed the vast, empty spaces meant for a multitude of guests.

“At first, it started as a joke… but it feels more like an episode from Black Mirror,” Cameron remarks in the video, showcasing the contrast between the luxury amenities and the absence of fellow vacationers.

Rather than lounging with cocktails, Cameron’s curiosity led him to explore the resort, hoping to encounter signs of life beyond the staff in their white uniforms. His search, however, proved futile as the couple remained the solitary inhabitants of the Grand Velas Boutique Los Cabos.

“Every time I think I see someone that’s not wearing a white uniform, I get excited, only to realize, no, just more contractors working on the place. Which, again, was kind of cool, until it wasn’t,” Cameron recounts, highlighting the uniqueness and strangeness of their exclusive vacation.

As the days passed, Cameron couldn’t help but question the financial logistics of maintaining a fully operational resort exclusively for them. The video captures his contemplation: “How is this place paying for all these lights? How are these fire pits being lit all day, all night for us? Who is paying for all this? This entire kingdom is just for us.”

In response to the viral video, the resort assured that Velas Resorts operates at 100% regardless of the number of guests, maintaining a remarkable staff-to-guest ratio of 3 to 1.
