The hype
Guests are obsessed with the architecture, the 'sexy' vibe, and the staff, but almost everyone mentions the high prices for food and drinks.
The Cape A Thompson Hotel by Hyatt
$600-1200+/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want the sexiest hotel in Cabo with a killer rooftop scene and don't mind hearing the bass drop while you sleep.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Every single room has a view of El Arco (The Arch)
- Manta restaurant by Enrique Olvera is a legitimate culinary destination
- The rooftop bar is arguably the best sunset spot in all of Los Cabos
Kurzfassung: A stunningly designed party palace where the views are 10/10 but the noise levels can be a dealbreaker for light sleepers.
Bewertet von @ZeenaGregg4052748: My stay at The Cape was a total vibe shift. Waking up to El Arco views and soaking in that copper tub felt like living in a movie. The brutalist architecture mixed with the ocean is stunning. It’s the perfect spot if you want luxury without it feeling stuffy.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
The 'party vibe' isn't just marketing; if you want a silent retreat, this isn't it. You will hear music.
- You are a couple looking for a romantic, high-energy getaway
- You appreciate mid-century modern design and 'surfer chic' aesthetics
- You want to see and be seen at the pool and rooftop
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung

- Maintenance: Property is well-maintained, though the harsh ocean air causes occasional wear on balcony furniture.
- Linens & towels: High-quality, crisp linens and plush towels. Robes are kimono-style and very comfortable.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of copal and sea salt. One specific report of a sewage smell in a room (Nov 2023), but not a widespread issue.

Vor der Buchung
Gut zu wissen

Was Sie einpacken sollten
- Surfboard (if you surf, this is a world-class break)
- Earplugs (essential for weekends)
- Dressy resort wear (the crowd here dresses up for dinner and the rooftop)

“I am a light sleeper and would love a room on floors 2-4, specifically ending in a higher number (x20+) to be as far as possible from the rooftop bar and lobby noise. A view of El Arco is much appreciated!”
FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is the beach swimmable?
No. Monuments Beach is rocky with strong currents. It's a famous surf break, not a swimming beach.
Is there a resort fee?
Not explicitly labeled as a daily 'resort fee', but a 15% service charge is added to almost everything, plus high taxes.
Is it kid-friendly?
Technically yes, but the vibe is very adult. No kids' club, non-swimmable beach, and a party atmosphere make it better for adults.
How far is it from the airport?
About 45 minutes from SJD International Airport.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, both the infinity pool and the saltwater pool are heated.
Can I walk to town?
No, it's located on the corridor. You need a taxi or Uber to get to downtown Cabo San Lucas.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
There is complimentary coffee in the lobby in the mornings—save your $8.
- ✨
The 'Sunken Bar' in the lobby is often quieter and has better service than the crowded rooftop.
- ✨
Ask for a 'panoramic' room for a corner view that includes both the ocean and the city lights.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The saltwater pool built into the natural rock formation is often empty while everyone crowds the main infinity pool.
💡You can watch whales breach right from your balcony during the season (Jan-Mar) without a tour.
💡The 'welcome tequila' bottle in the room is a nice touch, but the mini-bar prices are astronomical.
💡Room service breakfast is sometimes served in to-go containers rather than on a proper tray.
💡The elevator wait times can be frustratingly long during peak evening hours.
