Just got back from the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar Resort and Spa. Stayed from Sat, 2/14 Wed, 2/18. Actually ended up extending my trip an extra day because I was having such a great time I didn't want to leave.I can't say enough good things about this hotel. The rooms are nice and comfortablevery clean. The beds are just what they call them heavenly! The grounds are beautiful and immaculate. The pool area is amazingabsolutely great. Every hotel should have one of those infinity pools! The beach was nice as well, although I always sat out by the pool.The only complaint I would have is that food and drinks are a bit overpriced at the hotel. But that is usually the case at any hotel. Everything was delicious just too expensive. Frozen drinks at the pool will run you about US$8 (you must try the Miami Vice ? Pina Colada and ? Strawberry Daquiri). Bottled water is about US$7. Food at the pool bar (Tortugas) was also a bit pricey but very good. Go for the french fries they're the best! I highly recommend the breakfast buffet at Tomatoes Restaurant with made to order omelettes anything you want for approx. US$20. If you enjoy a good breakfast trust me it's worth the $20. My friends and I also liked having breakfast at Girasoles de la Hacienda it's on the top floor of one of the buildings with spectacular views. I think they also serve lunch. Meals are a little cheaper here than at Tomatoes. Friends of mine ate dinner at the new steakhouse restaurant which is near one end of the pool area. They weren't very happy with the food there and the concierge really pushes this place saying it's one of the only 5 star restaurants in all of Los Cabos. I wouldn't waste your time here. Instead have dinner one night at the other end of the pool area under a big open hut at Pitahayas Restaurant. The atmosphere is lovely candlelit tables, live music. The food here was phenomenal but again, very expensive. Try the baby back ribs for an appetizer and the petite filet mignon and lobster tail for the entr?e.If you're looking for more affordable meals take a taxi cab into town for only US$5 each way. I highly recommend Pancho's restaurant (great guacomole) and Mi Casa.I can't comment much on the nightlife my friends and I are in our late 20's. We went to Cabo Wabo and El Squid Roe after hearing they were the places to go at night. We were amused by both places the average age group was 50 and over! Very entertaining though. Maybe we were just there during peak tourist season.Everyone in the entire Los Cabos area is so friendly. You don't ever feel unsafe walking the streets or anything. The staff at the hotel were all very nice too. Only thing is there is a woman in the lobby who really tries to push you into going to a breakfast where you find out info on the Sheraton's time share options. Stay away from her unless you're interested in buying. She's very pushy.Oh and be sure to go over your bill carefully at check out. There was a mini bar charge on my bill and I never once took anything from the minibar. They took it right off when I told them. Also any phone calls you make from your room there is a $4 connection fee. And you can't call 800 #'s from the hotel at all which was frustrating when trying to make calls with a calling card. We ended up charging calls to our credit cards at $13 for 5 minutes.Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar and I can't wait to go back someday. My friends and I are still talking about our trip.

I just returned from a 7 night stay at the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar. I am happy to say that I found the comments on this site about poor service and overpricing without merit. OK, so a breakfast buffet was $24 PP; is this any different from a local brunch? The restaurants generally were fairly priced, as were the drinks (if you don't expect to pay a little extra to have drinks served to you beach or pool side, then you need to retool your expectations).

Service was very good, even too good. (wait staff was overeager to clear plates away). Staff was friendly and professional generally. Food itself was OK, not great. Coffee was the only problem -- it was dreadful!

The facilities are top notch, and the beach location without peer. Room was very nice, tho it could have been cleaner.

I highly recommend this hotel.

We went with a group to the Sheraton in November and everyone loved it.
The views were beautiful and the pool areas are great, especially the infinity pool in the center. As with most Cabo corridor beaches, you cannot swim there. The Cabo del Sol area where the resort is located is very exclusive and you have to go through a guard post but they are very polite. There is a beautiful desert style golf course surrounding the resort. The rooms are not 5 star but some of the restaurants are terrific. Pintahayas was the best in Cabo. Very expensive as are most in Cabo but we loved it. In town try Edith's and Mi Casa, also The Office is fun. Some like the Trailer Park but we didn't go there.

My wife and I returned from a one week stay in a 1 Bedroom Suite at the Sheraton Hacienda del Mar Vacation Club (the time-share portion of the resort).

We had an absolutely glorious time at this resort! I was a little apprehensive due to some of the recent reviews, but we only have wonderful things to report about our stay.

The resort is located on a dramatic, private beach that allowed rest and relaxation throughout the day. You could also go swimming in the ocean, but you do need to be careful, due to the undertow and size of the breaking waves. (I would not recommend this beach for toddlers/infants). The pools were beautifully designed, although a little on the small side. We spent the majority of our time on the beach and in the ocean.

During our stay, the resort staff (both hotel and vacation club) were friendly and accomodating. All requests were fulfilled in a timely manner.

Yes, the food and beverage prices are too high, but not completely out of line with what I would have expected from a resort of this quality.
Just be careful and donj't go crazy at the poolside bar. We found that ordering during the various Happy Hours helped soften the blow a little bit.

The 1 bedroom unit was beautifully appointed and the balcony provided a wonderful setting for the evening sunsets. We did not have a direct ocean view, but we could still see portions of the ocean blue through the various palm trees situated between the buildings.

Overall, I would highly recommend this resort as one of the best destinations throughout all of Los Cabos. We visited a couple of the resorts located directly on Medano Beach in the heart of Cabo San Lucas and there was no comparison.
