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.

Our stay was perfect for us and our friends we came with. The hotel was amazing and the staff went above and beyond. We look forward to coming back.

We just returned from my daughter‘s wedding at The Cape Hotel in Cabo San Lucas. We already knew how much we loved this hotel, but the precision with which they executed every part of our wedding weekend was exceptional. We had several different events in several different venues at the hotel and each one of them was amazing. Special mention goes to the excellent event/catering staff led by the fantastic Fernanda Perez. Fernanda and I were in touch weekly for about 6 months with updates to our event but she always accommodated us with a smile. Our guests were blown away by the quality of the hotel and staff. The rooms, the food, the service, the ambiance, the exceptional location all combine to make The Cape an extraordinary place to escape to. In fact, our next trip is already planned. Whether you visit just for an incredible holiday or you host a spectacular event, you won’t be disappointed at this property.

Love this hotel! Service amazing, views remarkable, the swing on the patio is just so relaxing. The people, the food at manta and the room will be missed. We hope to stay here again! Don’t hesitate to book. Honestly one of my favorite hotels of all time.

Loved everything about The Cape — the beautiful ocean-view room, the pool area, the variety of restaurant and bar choices. This is a very special property. The Rooftop Bar and The Sunken Bar are both so unique and fun, in their own ways. We appreciated the free breakfast that was part of our Sunday check-in package. Can’t wait to go back.

We stayed at The Cape for my brother's wedding and overall had a very nice experience. The highlight of the property is definitely the incredible view of the Arch in the distance. The open-air lobby is stunning and immediately gives you that luxury Cabo vibe. We traveled with our three children (ages 7, 9, and 11), and while the resort is beautiful, I would not consider it particularly kid-friendly. We booked a two-bedroom suite with a private plunge pool and large outdoor patio, and that ended up being perfect for our family. The kids spent most of their time in our private pool since it gave them space to play without disturbing other guests. The resort has two pools. The larger main pool seemed geared more toward adults who were relaxing, drinking, and enjoying a quieter atmosphere. It wasn't really a place where kids could run around, be loud, or jump into the pool. The smaller pool was a little more relaxed but still felt geared toward adults. The room itself was excellent. The two-bedroom layout gave everyone plenty of space, and the huge outdoor patio was one of our favorite features. Food was a mixed experience. Room service had limited options that appealed to our kids, but they really enjoyed the breakfast buffet each morning because there was a good variety of food. We also dined at Manta, and unfortunately the kids were not fans of the menu or food choices. We attended a wedding reception on the rooftop, and the venue was beautiful with amazing views. The food was decent, but many dishes arrived warm or cold rather than hot. Overall, The Cape is an excellent resort for couples, adults, and special events like weddings. Families with younger children can still enjoy it, especially if staying in a suite with a private pool, but those looking for a highly kid-focused resort may want to consider other options.

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.
