Pueblo Bonito Resort at Sunset Beach

  • December 8, 2003
  • 5 by sandra kay from cumming, Georgia
Best Things Nearby:
Beach, golfing, watersports, sport fishing, and the marina. Downtown has plenty of dining and nightlife.

Best Things About the Resort:
The staff, service, and unit were all exceptional.

Resort Experience:
The resort is laid out on the side of mountain going down to the Pacific Ocean. Shuttles carry guests throughout the resort, but it is very convenient and they will carry you 24 hours a day. While the resort is still under construction, it does not disrupt any of the existing lodgings. There are two pools completed and one dining option at this time, which was excellent. The grounds and rooms are immaculate with gardeners and housekeeping working around the clock.

The pool area is beautiful and built on three levels. You can't swim at this beach because of the dangerous current, but the huge waves are so beautiful to watch. You can shuttle over to the sister resort and enjoy water sports at the beach there.

Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach

The accommodations were exceptional, especially because the staff at check-in were so helpful in meeting my request for a particular building by the main pool. The location was great, and I thank the staff.

The units are very spacious with very upscale furnishings. We traveled with another couple and had all the privacy we could possibly want with two large bedroom suites separated by a huge living/dining area. The baths were well-appointed with tile and marble, toiletries, and all the towels you could want. Housekeeping kept the unit emaculately clean on a daily basis. It was such a joy to return to our rooms each day.

Pueblo Bonito Resort at Sunset Beach

Best Things Nearby:
The shuttle service provided by the resort provides free transportation to town to their "sister" resorts. There is nothing that is within walking distance of the resort, although the resort has many amneties that are quite accommodating.

Best Things About the Resort:
This is a new resort and the property is beautiful.

Resort Experience:
The Pueblo Bonito Resort - Sunset Beach is fabulous.

We went to Cabo for my husband's birthday and stayed at the Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach. Friends were also staying at the resort who are timeshare owners. They upgraded their studio timeshare to a one bedroom during this trip.

The resort is very beautiful and well-landscaped. Construction is still underway, but you cannot hear the construction noise, and it is not obtrusive to the guests staying in the completed portion of the hotel.

We stayed in a one-bedroom suite we purchased from Expedia, but while there, we looked at all of the model units as well as our friends' studio units. They were all fabulous, with quality construction and furnishings.

The resort is located hillside, so every room has an ocean view. However, this means long, steep walks or taking the golf cart shuttle to the main pool or store. We didn't mind and actually enjoyed the exercise, choosing to walk even though carts run regularly and the staff is courteous and always stops to offer a ride.

The resort is not in the center of town, and is secluded from other outside activities. However, a taxi ride is convenients and costs about $10. You can also take a free shuttle to the Pueblo Bonito Rose which runs regulary. We didn't find this to be an inconvenience at all. The resort is on the pacific side and you can't go in the water, which is one drawback if you like to swim in the ocean. However, you can take the free shuttles to the other Pueblo Bonito resorts in Cabo for ocean swimming. WE did take long walks on the beach and this was fun! The waves breaking right at the end of the beach were awesome to look at!

Pueblo Bonita at Sunset Beach

  • October 12, 2003

Best Things Nearby:
The resort is somewhat isolated but has a wonderful primary pool as well as another smaller pool, a hot tub, a deli, and a full service restaurant.

Best Things About the Resort:
It's brand new! Construction is ongoing and more units are being added.

Resort Experience:
We arrived about 3pm and our unit wasn't quite ready so they directed us to the "hospitality" table for our welcome packet. We were invited to join them for a sales (they didn't use the "s" word) tour and we declined. Then the pressure began to build . . . they finally got the message! I made the mistake of mentioning that my sister and her husband would be joining us when their flight arrived, and we adjourned to the bar for refreshments until our condo was ready. When my sister arrived and we finally met, she informed me that the "hostess" told her that I wanted her to sign up for the tour so we could get a discount on fishing; in fact, she told her I insisted that she sign up for the tour! NOT FAIR, Sunset Beach!! I would NEVER make plans for someone else! We cancelled the tour but it left a very bad taste! I understand the sales game, and lying has never induced me to buying timeshare. There is a huge difference between agressive and pushy!

Our condo was huge and even though it was only a one-bedroom unit, there was plenty of room. The bedroom had two double-beds, a full bath, a sitting room, and a patio. We've stayed at many resorts in Cabo, and this was the most comfortable bed I've had yet! The kitchen was well-furnished and the living-room, dining-room combination also had an adjoining patio. The couch was a sleep sofa and my sister said it was very comfortable. Most surprising of all, I was delighted to find the unit contained a second full bath off the entry hall! How often do you find 2 full baths in a 1BR condo? With more than one couple occupying the unit, this was very much appreciated! WAY TO GO, SUNSET BEACH!

The resort staff was very friendly and accommodating. They had games and pool activities, and we enjoyed the resort.

Our only objection was the remoteness of the location and the extra expense incurred to get to town. Figure $50 a day for taxi fare if you go to town twice, once to the Marina for fishing and again in the evening for dinner.

This resort is the third and newest of the Pueblo Bonito group. It is a long way from town, definitely not within walking distance. Cab fare is $12 one way. They do offer a free shuttle that runs every hour from Sunset Beach to Pueblo Bonito Rose, but they are not permitted to drop you off in town and you must ride all the way to Rose. The resort is gorgeous -- built on a hillside with lush landscaping and overlooking the Pacifico! They have golf-cart type people movers to take you from your condo to the lobby, or the pool, or the restaurant. These carts are life-savers!
