Hall of Fame Luxury Resorts – Meeting by the Sea

Los Cabos is comprised of two main towns, San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. They are connected by the now famous “tourism corridor” that stretches for approximately twenty miles along the shore of the Sea of Cortes until it reaches “Land’s End” and merges with the vast Pacific. However, the personality of Los Cabos is becoming even more dynamic with the emergence of Puerto Los Cabos near San Jose del Cabo along the Sea of Cortes and further development to the west of Cabo San Lucas along the Pacific Ocean. This visual is very important in selecting the perfect destination-within-the-destination for your lifestyle, special interests and expectations.

Cabo San Lucas, home to Los Cabos nightlife, marina, fishing fleets, and port-of-call for the major cruise ship arrivals. Near San Jose del Cabo and adding to the allure of the north end, is the master planned community of Puerto Los Cabos, complete with a world-class marina, full-service luxury hotels, exclusive residences and championship-caliber 27-hole golf course. The tourism corridor begins at Palmilla, home to the One&Only Palmilla resort, amazing golf courses, upscale shopping and spectacular residential developments. The corridor, which extends along miles of pristine coastline, embraces some of Los Cabos’ most ultra-luxury resorts and gated golf communities. Now further to the west, on the “Pacific Side,” visitors can experience planned resort communities such as Copala at Quivera, Diamante Los Cabos, and Norman Estates at Rancho San Lucas.

There is the quaint charm of San Jose Del Cabo with centuries of history, a natural estuary and expansive beaches contrasted to her more vibrant sister,

Growing Responsibly

Los Cabos continues to add to its collection of marque hotel and resort properties. From 2019 thru 2023, the destination is on track to add nearly 5,000 luxury rooms as well as the new golf courses, spas and gourmet restaurants that emerge organically with each new member of the Los Cabos luxury collection. The key to Los Cabos’ success is a very detailed and proactive sustainable tourism action plan. Los Cabos has set the standard for beach destinations worldwide.

list of luxury hotels and resorts. In the last year, Los Cabos has added the Four Seasons Costa Palmas, the Nobu Hotel Los Cabos, Hard Rock Los Cabos, and Zadun - Ritz-Carlton Reserve, with several more coming between 2020 and 2023. These new arrivals only complement the prestigious list of resorts that currently reside on this amazing stretch of Los Cabos landscape. The newly renovated Los Cabos Convention Center boasts 72,000 square feet of state-of-the-art meeting and exposition space accommodating up to 5,000. Los Cabos also provides additional large event space at virtually all the major resort hotels. For example, the Hyatt Ziva in San Jose Del Cabo offers 35,000 square feet of meeting space, which also includes a Grand Theatre for over 1,000; Hard Rock Los Cabos’ main ballroom can seat 1,200; and the Sheraton Grand Hacienda del Mar, with exceptional congress and meeting facilities, are just a few examples of the dozens of options available to meeting and incentive planners. If your business needs are on a smaller scale, most of the luxury resorts and boutique hotels in Los Cabos are equipped with excellent meeting and banquet rooms.

Cabo is home to more world-famous luxurious hotels, elegant boutique hideaways, full service all-inclusive resorts, and one-of-a-kind private villas than anywhere on the west coast of North America. Global luxury brands like One&Only, Rosewood, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Secrets, Velas Resorts, Montage, Auberge, Thompson, and JW Marriott, are impeccably blended with regional icons such as Grand Solmar, Casa Dorada, El Ganzo, Casa Natalia, Cabo Azul, Marquis Los Cabos, Hacienda Encantada and Cabo Surf. Each of these unique properties has its own interpretation of Mexican style, making it easy to find a traditional, modern, chic or romantic accommodation with the exact amenities you desire. Take in the breathtaking view from your balcony, relax in your private plunge pool, or enjoy the sounds of the surf from an ocean front casita. The blending of man-made architectural masterpieces with the natural beauty of the Baja Peninsula is just one more reason Los Cabos distinguishes itself from all other resort destinations. In 2018 alone, Los Cabos welcomed Viceroy Los Cabos, Le Blanc Los Cabos, Solaz Los Cabos, Twin Dolphin - Montage Los Cabos, Chileno Bay Resort, Mar del Cabo and Garza Blanca to its already impressive

THE CAPE, A THOMPSON HOTEL CABO SAN LUCAS, MEXICO The Cape, a Thompson Hotel, is located in Cabo San Lucas in the state of Baja California Sur, Mexico, situated along one of the most desirable stretches of white sand in Los Cabos: the world- renowned surfers’ paradise known as Monuments Beach. It is this secluded shoreline and its picturesque environs that inspired the resort’s name. The Cape is the English translation of el cabo , and a reference to the property’s unmatched location on one of Los Cabos’ (meaning “the capes”) eponymous seaside points. The luxury hotel features 161 guest rooms, all with unobstructed views of the Sea of Cortez and the destination’s famed icon, El Arco. While taking in beautiful views, guests can enjoy two pools; a rooftop lounge and garden with unmatched views of the city and the sea; and a diverse array of chef-driven food and beverage destinations.

Each Penthouse Villa boasts a spacious private balcony with plush outdoor furnishings, a full outdoor kitchen and barbecue, fire pit and craft cocktail bar. Another crowning feature found in many of the guest rooms is the freestanding, copper-leafed bathtubs, positioned precisely so that you may enjoy a direct line of sight to the exterior balcony and view beyond, while also maintaining privacy. Guests may especially enjoy the custom 750ml hand-etched crystal bottle of Realeza Mexicana 100 percent blue-agave tequila, produced and bottled exclusively for The Cape. Each room additionally comes complete with cotton kimono robes and binoculars for whale watching.

The beachfront resort at sunset

DESIGN Celebrated architects Javier Sánchez and Benedikt Fahlbusch, alongside distinguished Mexican interior designer Marisabel Gómez Vázquez, are the creative force behind The Cape, effortlessly blending the upscale urban sensibility synonymous with Thompson Hotels and a vibrant, 1960s Baja-meets-Southern California vibe. The resort’s unique geographical positioning and precise architectural build allow for unparalleled views of both the ocean and El Arco from virtually any vantage point in the hotel. This connection to the sea and sand is woven throughout the property’s design, as seen in highlights like custom furniture handmade in Mexico and original ceramic pieces from Guadalajara artist José Noé Suro.

destinations, including the alfresco rooftop lounge and sunken lobby bar. Seamlessly in line with the overall concept of The Cape, the chef’s approach maintains a distinct and tastefully casual Baja sensibility, avoiding pretension in favor of a straightforward yet refined approach. Design highlights at Manta include large hand- carved wooden doors that open into a seductively lit corridor and wine wall; a mix of natural elements throughout such as wood, leather and dark stone; and an exhibition-style kitchen with teppanyaki and robata grills that offer guests an immersive culinary experience. RELAX On the westernmost point of The Cape sits Currents, an intimate, seven treatment room spa. It serves as a stunning example of the vision of architect Javier Sanchez and interior designer Marisabel Gómez Vázquez. Softly lit with dark charcoal-gray walls and minimal art, the space removes extraneous stimuli, allowing the sights, sounds and natural decor of the nearby desert- meets-the-sea landscape to set the ambience. Currents offers a steam room, sauna, hot and cold plunge pools, a couples treatment room with rain showers and a private pool, and two ocean-view cabanas for alfresco treatments. The Cape’s fitness center houses state-of-the-art equipment and offers fitness classes, yoga and private workout sessions with expert trainers. A panoramic, floor-to-ceiling window stretches across the facility, providing unobstructed views of the Sea of Cortez. Signature treatment The Currents Massage treatment combines an aromatherapy touch for the soul, hot-stone reflexology for the feet and a deep-tissue massage from legs to shoulders using stretching techniques to loosen muscle tension, making it a perfect treatment to let everything go.
