Treat Yourself to an Adult Spring Break at The Cape, a Thompson Hotel

Just because our school days are over doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy an adult spring break getaway ourselves! With easy, direct travel from regions around the U.S. and luxe, sophisticated accommodations away from the “spring breakers” of Cabo.

The Cape, a Thompson Hotel is situated along one of the most desirable stretches of white sand in Los Cabos: the world-renowned surfers’ paradise known as Monuments Beach. The boutique luxury hotel features 161 guestrooms, all with unobstructed views of the Sea of Cortez and the destination’s famed icon, El Arco. Guests enjoy two pools, including an infinity pool with swim-up bar and another built within a natural rock formation found on property; a sixth-story rooftop lounge and garden with unmatched views of the city and sea; an intimate spa and fitness center with private outdoor cabanas for treatments with an ocean view; and a diverse array of chef-driven food and beverage destinations (including a signature restaurant from acclaimed Chef Enrique Olvera).

A few reasons why The Cape is a fit for traveling with a loved one, your family, or groups of friends:

  • Sophisticated nightlife without the “spring break” feel: The Cape also brings a compelling lifestyle element unique to Cabo – while it’s a short distance from the famous Cabo San Lucas nightlife scene, guests can enjoy a more intimate, sophisticated take on entertainment without ever leaving the hotel. The Cape features a rooftop lounge, bar and craft beer garden with a resident DJ spinning (and has played host to star-studded celebrations with talent including Samantha Ronson, Ana Calderon, IO Echo, and others) and regular acoustic sessions timed to the setting sun.
  • The resort offers multiple luxe room options ideal for groups: the Penthouse and Villa options include expansive outdoor patios, multiple bedrooms, many with private plunge pools and BBQs, full kitchens and cocktail bars, and more. It’s a lot like staying in your own Baja home. And while at some resorts villa stays can mean staying quite a ways away from the excitement and lifestyle happenings of your hotel—requiring a golf cart or transportation to get to the dining, spa, lounges, and more—that’s not the case at The Cape. These residence-style options are just a brief walk from the sixth-story rooftop lounge, spa, pools, dining, beach, and more.
  • If you’re traveling with foodies: The Cape’s signature restaurant, Manta, is helmed by multi award-winning chef Enrique Olvera (of Netflix’s “Chef’s Table” fame, Mexico City’s Pujol, and more).
  • If you're traveling with surfers: The Cape is located directly on Monuments Beach, an intimate stretch of sand celebrated the world around for its famous left hand surf break. It’s one of the few left hand breaks in the area (if not the only) and has become a go-to spot for surfers in the know. While beaches are not typically private in Los Cabos, this particular beach avoids the crowds as its tucked off the main drives of Cabo San Lucas. So for beach lovers, it’s a nice respite from the busier options in the region—and all you have to do is walk out of your room to enjoy it.
