After your massage there's a specific outdoor spa pool and lounge areas. We very much enjoyed our massages and felt incredibly relaxed afterwards.

I think your plan to just relax is an excellent one. Here's some other dining recommendations, all which typically have live music in the evenings:
- Casa Martin, courtyard setting (short Uber)
- Bar Esquina, outdoors, but feels indoors, dark, moody setting
- Hacienda Cocina y Cantina- beachside setting

I personally think if you haven't been to EF, you should give it a chance, but keep it simple. I think the setting just has to be experienced. The meal and service are good. I personally think people tend to expect that meals will be less than back at home, simply because they are in Mexico. That's simply not the case and one certainly won't be looking through candlelights at whales in the pacific ocean back at home.

Remember it will be HOT in October. Ubering is SO cheap when you head into town- don't be afraid to use it. Perhaps consider whale watching if the season has started while you are there.

As mentioned, always ask for house water at the resort. It's completely safe at all the resorts in Cabo, as is the ice. For standalone restaurants, I stick with bottled water, if ordering water.
