2/10 Poor

Pros: The resort offers a beautiful ocean view and a warm swimming pool, which is enjoyable, especially in the evenings. The location is convenient—just off the main road with easy access to transportation and nearby areas. Breakfast was good and fairly satisfying. Cons: The rooms were not clean, and clean towels were not consistently provided. Requests were not handled well, and the staff was not very accommodating, which became frustrating over the course of the stay. Overall: If you’re looking for convenience, luxury, and a truly relaxing vacation, I would recommend choosing another hotel. The stay felt like more hassle than comfort, and it did not feel like a vacation for us.

6/10 Good

The view was gorgeous, and the room size was great. Only one of the 3 sets of patio doors had working locks. The two “safes” in the room didn’t lock either. We ate once at the hotel and it was bad. I’ve been to Mexico 6+times and Every meal I’ve ever had in Mexico has been wonderful (from taco stand up to fine dining) so I was really surprised by this one experience. The tortilla soup was horrible. The ceviche was flavourless, the Guac was bad. It actually confused me. We debated and we wondered if maybe the kitchen was catering to “American senior citizen taste preferences” because there were a large number of them staying there. That would make sense. But it was truly disappointing and pricey too
