Earlier this year we went on a trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I shared a little with you before about our first all-inclusive stay, but I didn’t write an official review.

Room
We stayed at Sandos Finisterra, in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. For this trip we chose a Junior Ocean View Suite, to give us room for 2 adults and 2 kids and some wiggle room. The accommodations were well styled, and kept nice and clean. My favorite part of our room was not only the view, but the tile floors and dining table. We had a water dispenser in our room, and housekeeping was very timely and polite. The bathroom had a nice deep tub, which made it easy to keep the boys clean. To be honest we didn’t spend a ton of time in our room, most of the time we spent was out by the pool.

Amenities
The amenities were wonderful. The hotel sits on the Pacific Ocean side of Cabo San Lucas, so you can not swim in the ocean, but the 360 degree view is unparalleled. It is across the street from the marina, and an easy walking distance to downtown. At the hotel there are plenty of family friendly activities centered around one of the three swimming pools overlooking the ocean, and there is also a kid’s club if you’d like a little time to yourself. There were activities scheduled throughout the day, my personal favorite was water zumba. I’ve never tried it before so I felt a little funny, but it was a ton of fun once I just let myself get into it. One of the pools included a swim-up bar and beverage service was offered in most of the outdoor areas. The hotel also has a nightclub, coffee shop, bar, and spa. I’m a little proud of my husband for winning a massage for me in a competition at the pool. During our stay we only planned to leave the resort once for a whale watching tour, and it ended up being canceled because of a squall. After doing some quick souvenir shopping we returned back to our little paradise on the beach.

Overall I would give this hotel a 10/10. I’m not usually this generous with my ratings but we spent 99.9% of our time here and had the best time. The hotel was very clean, service was impeccable, the food was delicious, and we’d love to make a return trip one day.

  1. Absolutely beautiful!!

  2. My husband and I went to Cabo for the first time in June of this year. We stayed at an all-inclusive, which was for adults only (a fun way to travel when you don’t have kids yet!). It was super nice and relaxing and we hardly needed to leave the resort area. I can’t wait to go back to Cabo and hope they get all the damage repaired soon. I’m sure tourists will help in the recovery efforts by coming back and spending!

    1. That sounds like so much fun! I looked at a place that was adults only but obviously it didn’t work out for us, haha. I hope they are al up and running soon, too.

  3. I’ve never been somewhere tropical. Ever. I guess if you count San Diego, where I got the worst burn of my entire life (no exaggeration – then again you were there, you saw). I’d totally go to Hawaii first though. Sounds so dreamy.

    I want that last picture set as my desktop background.

  4. I’ve only been to the east coast of Mexico, but I’ve always wanted to head over to Cabo! Looks like y’all had an awesome time–pinning this to my travel board!

  11. Ahh, Mexican resorts. I haven’t been since I was in high school – my family and I went to Cancun. It was so lovely, and I’m so jealous you got to go to Cabo!
