The hype
Guests are obsessed with the views and location but consistently whelmed by the food and room age.
Sandos Finisterra All Inclusive
$250-450/ noapte
Rezervă dacă You want the best views in Cabo and a resort that's actually walkable to the marina and downtown nightlife.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Cliffside location with insane views of both the marina and Pacific Ocean
- Walkable to downtown Cabo San Lucas (rare for all-inclusives here)
- The Whale Watchers Bar is arguably the best sunset spot in the city
Privire rapidă: A view-heavy, location-perfect resort that relies on its geography to distract you from the dated rooms and average buffet food.
Evaluat de @CharlotteRebeccaLife: I spent my days lounging by the cliffside pools and my evenings eating steak at Don Diego. The sunset views over the marina are unmatched, and having a gourmet cupcake shop on-site was dangerous in the best way. Perfect mix of relaxation and nightlife access.

Reality check
You will hear the marina noise and pool DJ in your room if you don't book carefully.
- You want to walk to Tacos Guss or Squid Roe at 10pm
- You prioritize ocean views over modern furniture
- You're a whale watcher (seasonal sightings from the bar are common)
Curățenie și Întreținere
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, though sometimes late in the afternoon.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but older rooms often have worn grout and slow-draining showers.
- Maintenance: The grounds are pristine and manicured. Rooms show age with scuffed furniture and occasional plumbing hiccups.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality. Not luxury Egyptian cotton, but clean and functional.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh; older rooms can have a faint musty/humidity smell due to the ocean air.

Întrebări frecvente și sfaturi ascunse
Tot ceea ce vrei de fapt să știi înainte de a rezerva.
Is the beach swimmable?
No. The Pacific side has dangerous currents. You must walk or take a water taxi to Medano Beach for swimming.
Is it pet friendly?
No. Sandos Finisterra has a strict no-pets policy.
Is the wifi good enough for work?
It's free but spotty. Good enough for emails in the lobby/Finisterra suites, but don't count on it for Zoom calls in the older rooms.
Do I have to do the timeshare presentation?
Absolutely not. They will frame it as a 'welcome breakfast' or 'VIP tour'. Just say 'No thank you' and walk away.
How is the food?
Average. The breakfast buffet at Don Diego is solid, and the Cupcake Café is a hit, but dinner restaurants like Emiliano's (Italian) are often described as 'meh'.
Is there a heated pool?
Yes, the pools are generally heated, but the temperature can vary. The VIP pool tends to be the warmest.
Sfaturi de Insider
- ✨
Walk to 'Tacos Gardenias' (10 min walk) for authentic shrimp tacos instead of eating at the buffet.
- ✨
The 'Whale Watchers Bar' has self-serve popcorn and the best view of the entire city—go at 5pm.
- ✨
You can hike Mt. Solmar with the local dog trainer (Enrique) who meets people near the naval base; it's free (tips accepted) and offers incredible views.
