SHERATON HACIENDA DEL MAR NAMED TO SHERATON GRAND COLLECTION

Popular Los Cabos Destination Resort Joins Best In Class Category

The Sheraton Hacienda del Mar Golf & Spa Resort in Los Cabos, Mexico has been named to the Sheraton Grand tier by Sheraton Hotels & Resorts. The Grand category is Sheraton Hotels & Resorts’ new premier designation of hotels recognized for enticing destinations, distinguished designs and excellence in service and guest experiences. Now, renamed Sheraton Grand Los Cabos, Hacienda del Mar, the iconic resort is the newest addition to the Sheraton Grand collection and the only property in Mexico and one of only three in Central and South America to receive this designation.

“Our authentic, Mexican Hacienda-style resort set on more than 26 acres of oceanfront property, with beautiful gardens and seemingly endless array of guest amenities, has long been a sought after destination resort in Los Cabos,” said Renato Mendonca, General Manager of Sheraton Grand Los Cabos, Hacienda del Mar. “Equally, or even more importantly, we pride ourselves in offering superior service. We are very proud of this incredible acknowledgement.”

The new designation of Sheraton Grand Los Cabos, Hacienda del Mar is the result of the property’s excellence in service and hospitality, its idyllic location on the beaches of Los Cabos and its luxurious, authentic Mexican architecture and design. The property features 270 exquisite guest rooms and suites with traditional Mexican décor; a collection of mouthwatering restaurants, which include two Five Star Diamond Award-winning restaurants, De Cortez Grill and Restaurant and Pitahayas Restaurant; and over 18,000 square feet of space for meetings, events and weddings of all sizes. The Sheraton Grand Los Cabos, Hacienda del Mar is a popular destination for business travelers, couples and families, with amenities that accommodate every itinerary, and as Mexico’s only Sheraton Grand property, the hotel will treat its guests to an unparalleled level of service, hospitality and luxury during their stay.
