My mother (52) and I (25) just returned from Cabo San Lucas after having stayed at Sunset Beach. Coming from two women who have very hectic day jobs (mom is an educator and I am a full time beautician)....Sunset was W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L!!!! There was some construction going on around us (there are maybe only 4 more buidlings to be made before they complete it, totally....plus the owners mansion being built just a few feet north of the resort). It wasnt enough to disturb us (the walls are thick and the windows are sound proof). The customer service was excellent (youll make friends with the waiters, waitresses, and maitre'd's at La Nao by your second night!! LOL). The food was pricey at La Nao, but it is SO EXCELENTLY prepared and SO MUCH CHEAPER than some of those places in downtown cabo...that its well worth it. If youre a timeshare person....remember to take full advantage of your kitchenette!! La Nao is clean, chok full of calm ambience (at dinner, you are serenaded by two or three local musicans). theres also smooth jazz subtly kicking thru hidden speakers (on the patio) in the evening.the pool is awesome. one part is regular tempurature, then theres regular temperature with jets, then theres an aqua bar (you can walk THRU THE WATER and sit on tile "bar chairs" and "bar sofas" with tile table). because this is the less crowded of the three pueblo bonitos....the poolside waiters are very prompt. the other half of the pool is slightly warmed and VERY relaxing. theres a hot tub on the premesis, a couple of benches set up for resort employed vendors, and a host of fun activities led by the entertainment staff.The beach is nice, but yeah...ya cant swim there or walk the tide. The sound of the waves crashing against the surf is the sound of a mean rip tide from the shoreline to about 10-15 feet (or so) out. An experienced swimmer or surfer might make it....but i was told the danger is for small children, young children and inexperienced swimmers. Follow the orders though, its for your good. But if you cant live without a beach you can swim at....take the free shuttle to Rose' or Blanco. Be warned (especially if you go in mid july)...that Rose and Blanco WILL BE PACKED FULL OF PEOPLE! ..so get there early.theres a modest gym (and a MONSTER staircase that connects the top of the resort to the bottom ---without having to walk down the winding mini-road that runs thru the entire resort). some folks complained....but for someone who needed a warm up before hitting the gym..that staircase was on point!!! **laughs**.They dont have an elaborate spa like at Rose (definitely catch the shuttle to Rose' the in-spa atmosphere). But if youre pretty private (and dont like to be bothered with a whole lot of other people)....have one of sunset beaches masseuses (sp?) come to your ROOM! or MASSAGE YOU WITHIN A CLOSED CABANA on the beach or by the pool!!!.the whole place was great. weve been gone a lil less than a week now...and im still thinking about how wonderful a time i had there with my mom. this is a good place if you want king or queen treatment, without a whole lot of crowds, with quietness (and even romantic ambience).
