One Haute Getaway

Haute Mommies, listen up!  A brand, spanking new GORGEEEEEOUS boutique hotel has opened in Cabo.  We all know and love the Thompson Brand with their slew of swanky properties in cities like Chicago, NYC, Miami, well now they've got another to add to their lineup, this time in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.  Introducing, The Cape.  Take the most-elegantly appointed mid-century modern decor (think 1960's Mexico-meets-SoCal vibe) and pair it with every amenity you could ask for, top it off with 5-Star service and situate it on one of the most desirable coastlines in Cabo, and you have The Cape.

With heavenly views from all corners, you'll get serious use out of the Infinity pool over-looking the beach, the slightly more-secluded/bath-water-warm salt water pool, a super sexy spa, state-of-the-art gym, most jaw-droppinly stunning rooftop and food for days and days and days at one of the deeeelish restaurants on site.

The hubs and I planned a very last minute getaway for the 4th Of July and chose The Cape after scouring the internet for great deals. http://www.thompsonhotels.com/hotels/The-Cape-Los-Cabos Currently, they're offering a couple exclusives: Stay 4, Pay 3,  and The Great Escape - which includes ground transportation and daily breakfast for two.

We bravely planned our stay just three days after the hotel had officially opened.  Clearly there are benefits to that: the privacy, 10-staff to every 1-guest (at least it felt that way) never-before-been-used sheets...and then some drawbacks: minor construction still in progress, select rooms available....but lemme tell you, being the Guinea Pigs served us well.  The team was on point and our stay, flawless.

This was our first true getaway w/out the babe so we had a lot to lose, thank gawd we left feeling like we gained so much.  Time together to work on "us", mornings to sleep in, 1 highly-improved pool game  (yup, they've got one in the lobby) a couple killer tans, and even an afternoon spent downing one too many shots- We can thank their Welcome Tequila Amenity for that :)

While I can promise our next trip away won't be just the two of us, I can assure you, it'll be the whole family treking down south for another magical stay at The Cape in Cabo.

Gotta Try: The shrimp tacos by the pool.  O M G we had them every single day, twice somedays

Can Live Without: $25 Room service for a pot of coffee.  Go down to the hotel restaurant instead where an entire buffet is less than that.
