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.

I cannot stress how amazing the ambiance, the service and the food is at the cape. The prices are extremely reasonable the drinks are amazing and the pool side fish tacos are huge and so awesome. Make sure to eat at Manta. We booked the corner panoramic suite with a plunge pool. It’s not cheap for the room but well worth every penny. Cape we are life long customers.

The resort really is beautiful. The open air lobby is welcoming and has an excellent vibe. The front desk was efficient. We arrived early, and we enjoyed a drink at the pool bar until our room was ready right at 3pm. The room itself was very nice. The beds were comfortable and filtered water was provided. We were on the first floor (above the lobby) and we did not have a tub, but had a nice shower, featuring both a rain drop and standard head. We enjoyed food at the pool during the day. We also enjoyed the breakfast and dinner at The Ledge, I found the quality of the food to be great. The reason I am only giving 3 stars is because of the loud noise. All 3 days we were there we had a loudspeaker from the pool area covering a surfboarding competition. Although this wasn't a huge deal, it did not create a relaxing environment. It went from morning until late in the day. But worst of all was on July 5th. There was a loud DJ blasting music until past midnight in the bar next to the lobby, just below our room. I had to request earplugs, but they did not block the sound. We traveled from several timezones to the east so we were ready to sleep by 10pm, but the music was so loud that our entire room was vibrating. This was beyond frustrating and really ruined our stay. We paid a lot of money for a relaxing vacation, but instead we got the experience of trying to sleep in the middle of what felt like a night club. If you want a peaceful vacation, this is not the place. If you want a party/club vibe, consider this hotel.

My sister and I had an unforgettable stay at The Cape—from the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. Every member of the staff was kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make us feel cared for. The food was consistently delicious; we had the spicy tuna roll, Club sandwich + fries, avocado toast, ceviche, and rooftop drinks! Whether we needed something from housekeeping or ordered room service, everything arrived promptly and with a smile. One of the highlights of our trip was a beachfront massage at Currents—it was pure bliss and the perfect way to spend a relaxing afternoon. During our time at the pool, we chatted with several other guests, all of whom were just as impressed with the property. One couple shared that while they’ve stayed at other luxury hotels in Cabo, they always return to The Cape for its exceptional service and the welcoming, laid-back atmosphere. I saw other reviews mentioning the pool music, which I only noticed was turned up mid-day Friday through Sunday—something I personally enjoyed. The staff truly made our stay memorable, and we’ll definitely be back!

Great experience, amazing property and excellent service. Aldo and Luis take great care of you at the pool! Stayed in an ocean front room, beautiful rooms. I also enjoyed the food, highly recommend the shrimp tacos and quinoa salad, good drinks too!

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.
