My wife and I spent 01-04-05 till 01-21-05...Great hotel. Loved the views of the Ocean from all the rooms..Bought a suite...loved the service.

My husband and I stayed here in Oct for an extended weekend. The drive leading up to the hotel and the hotel grounds were gorgeous. Rooms, food and service were all above average though not exceptional. Overall it was a very relaxing trip- the hotel is fairly quiet, with a much older crowd. I felt as though I was at the pool in the movie Cocoon at times. The only thing I would warn about is the hilly location, for those who are handicapped, older or less mobile, be careful of having to rely on employee driven golfcarts to get around.

We just returned from a quick 4 day trip and stayed at the fabulous Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach. The resort was beautiful and the penthouse suite was incredible. We stayed in penthouse suite #3432 which included 3 bd/3 ba and our own jacuzzi. Combine that with the spectacular views and you have the perfect place to spend your vacation. I have stayed in a number of five star resorts and this one ranks at the top. We also found a great deal on hotels and used the Cape Travel shuttle organized through the hotel itself. Additionally, if you are under 30 or traveling without a spouse, you can bybass the timeshare speech and have an easy check in process.

It is important to note that the resort is very quiet and isolated. While we were looking for a little R&R, this is not the resort for you if you seek action, loud parties and a quick trip into town. The daily shuttle was convenient and the walk from Pueblo Bonito Rose was short - only about 5 - 10 minutes to the main part of town. We went into town each day to shop, eat, go to bars, etc. If you are looking for a place to unwind, this is it.

A few things to note:
Recommend not eating the buffets in the restaurant and instead opting for the regular menu. We were dissapointed with the buffet the first time.

Check out time is 10am and it is sometimes difficult to request a late check out if you have an afternoon flight. The hotel provides a "hospitality suite" that you have to reserve for a 30 minute block if you want to shower, rest, etc. after checking out and before heading to the airport.

Golf Carts - the hotel is built into the side of the mountain and golf carts shuttle guests to the pool, restaurant, lobby, etc. This process is a bit tedious and even if you are in GREAT shape, the hills are steep and the walk gets tiring. Better off taking the shuttle and pretending you are on a ride at Disneyland.

We went to Cabo the week of 12/20/04 - 12/24/04 and stayed at the Sunset. The hotel, rooms, pools, food, service, everything was excellent. We liked using the golfcart taxis at times to get around the resort and at other times we enjoyed walking. The free shuttle bus service to their sister resort, the Rose, was very convenient and a big money saver to get to town. We would stay here again (we've been to Cabo before and liked this resort best).

Besides enjoying our stay at the hotel, we loved going deep sea fishing. Mucho Loco was the charter we booked - Phillipe and Ceasar were a great crew. Even though the waters were pretty rough most of the morning, we caught a good size dorado, tuna, and striped marlin.
