About the Hotel
The Cape, a Thompson Hotel, is redefining the coastline of Los Cabos. Open in June 2015, there’s no trace of the traditional Mexican beach resort. Sleek architectural lines eschew Spanish tile, and the rooftop bar channels New York City with a tropical vibe. The hotel is still distinctly Mexico – ceramicist José Noé Suro contributed contemporary art pieces, and hand-painted tile appears throughout the property. Arrive to a room dressed in bespoke Latin American furniture and accessorized with special touches – there’s a tequila welcome gift and a set of binoculars for spying on whales, which frequent the waters surrounding the Baja Peninsula.

10/10 Experience
AMAZING!! The views are even better than the pictures. The staff was the best at any hotel I have ever stayed at (special shoutout to Luis at the pool who we loved SO much).

Great views and pool
Overall great experience. Really enjoyed the infinity pool and whale watching just off the beach was possible almost every corner of the property. The views were incredible!

disappointing
Very disappointing experience at The Cape, a Thompson Hotel. Front Office Manager Gerardo Garcia Leon was rude and dismissive when I raised legitimate concerns about my family’s stay and pre‑arrival communication. I would not return or recommend this property.

The Cape made my fist visit to Mexico special
My husband and I enjoyed The Cape from the start, as we were offered a complimentary mezcalita at check in. For our three day stay, we received friendly and helpful service and felt welcome to explore and try the various options of the hotel. We would particularly thank the concierges, who are centrally located and eager to help. Michell Gonzalez had called me the week ahead, and all his advice and arrangements were excellent. For my first time in Mexico, this was a huge help and made the trip special.

We loved our stay. The hotel is beautiful. Highlights include location, natural beauty, amazing balconies, and layout, staff was hard-working, attentive, friendly, and accommodating.
The rooftop is spectacular. The sunsets and views were incredible. Food and drinks were overpriced but good. The beach was not swimmable which is a negative, but clean, private and gorgeous. Fun to watch surfers. They could use some board games, deck of cards, or even a fancy chess board to add to the super fun pool table. Well-positioned elevators, etc. Really well-designed hotel. They've thought of everything. Beautiful gardens and natural surroundings are immaculately kept. Other guests were respectful, pleasant, polite and friendly.
While the concierge is in contact by text and email, they were not entirely helpful. They were unable to help us with dinner reservations. We ended up doing it all ourselves with ease. It seemed as if they were trying to keep us at the hotel for all meals. We were there for a week and had rented a car. Our plan was to explore and eat elsewhere for a few meals. However, I did not sit down and speak with the concierge face to face, so perhaps this would have made a difference.
We were at the hotel on New Year's Eve and they had a rooftop party. Our room was on the 3rd floor but still impacted by the sound and vibration of the base and music. I spoke with the manager and they satisfactorily resolved it. The New Year's eve rooftop party would have been incredible, so my feedback would be to let guests know about the potential for noise before they book - much like what a hotel would do if there was construction. They also brought earplugs to my room immediately after my call to the front desk and they helped immensely.
One other thing that I couldn't understand - no tea or coffee in the rooms! This would have made a huge difference to me.
Our experience with Luxury Link was a 10/10.
