Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels, Services, Sports

Baseball player Jason Giambi knows a bit about living a lavish lifestyle. He is a co-owner in the Hard Rock's Vanity night club in Las Vegas and has created a truly amazing way to blow $100,000 on a good time.

Our friends at Thrillist reveal that the Vanity Affair with Jason Giambi includes taking over the nightclub's most exclusive table, sipping on one of only 100 3-liter, gold sheathed, laser-etched bottles of 1995 Dom Perignon white gold Jeroboam plus a three-night stay for you and 11 guests at Giambi's nine-bedroom vacation villa in Cabo San Lucas villa. You and your guests will fly first class to Cabo where will you stay in the villa and be catered to by the staff. The villa includes a gym, movie theater, poker table, putting green and a split-level swimming pool area.

Hoteles Marquis Los Cabos: Defining Upscale in a Resort Town

A basic trip to Los Cabos, Mexico implies a large hotel room with a view of the beach. Within minutes of putting your bathing suit on, you'll have sand between your toes. This sort of baseline can make it tough for a hotel to stand out. If every one is within striking distance of that lovely turquoise water – and each has an attentive staff and cozy digs – what can one hotel do differently? Upon entering my room at Hoteles Marquis Los Cabos, I learned the answer: everything.

You realize that Hoteles Marquis is a special resort when you pull into the driveway. A covered outdoor lobby is framed by a dramatic space, with the curved walls leading your eye to a carefully designed display that links the statue to the pool to the water ... and ultimately to the horizon. Practicality is not sacrificed for the sake of design, however, as cool air is corralled to offset the powerful Cabo sun only footsteps away. The registration process is as swift as it can be, and a refreshing drink makes it a bit more enjoyable. Hey, forms have to be filled out and credit cards imprinted – nature of the beast.
