I rarely travel just to relax. But the wife and I really felt like we could go for that. And the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar delivered. Perfect place for just chilling out in the sun. Whatever Spring Break vibe I expected was found in town... but not here.
SPG Category 4. Memorial Day Weekend was $75/night + 5,000 points/night. Lowest rate on SPG site was $309/night. I don't have status but was able to work with the hotel to complete the 2nd night of my 3rd night because they kept me abreast of cancellations. The funny thing was that even though they were sold out all weekend the property never felt crowded!
"Sheraton" is kind of a bad word when it comes to staying on a beach. However, this place is AMAZING.
- 6-8 pools which are all ocean-side.
- Right on the beach but the oceanfront sand isn't really that usable. Gnarly waves break on shore and there's a major undertoe.
- 2 infinity pools
- ~6 restaurants
- Not a ton of ocean view rooms but the rooms are pretty lovely . The entire place is an old Mexican style building that's right out of a movie.
- ~15 minute taxi from 'downtown' aka Medano Bay and Cabo San Lucas Marina (think: Cabo Wabo)
- Property adjoins with a Starwood timeshare property.
Also... Cabo is known for activities: golf, snorkeling, jetskis, etc. We didn't get into any of that this trip, but it can all be arranged via the hotel. There are golf courses within stones throw from the property (including, I believe, a Jack Nicklaus course.)
