I call tell they are having issues with the hotel, they are dropping the ball , elevators don't work, jacuzzi does not work, the room we stayed bathroom sink was clogged very little towels housekeeping was late, we kept asking for clean towels, the microwave was dirty, if they don't get new management soon this nice hotel will loose its great ratings. It was very sad to see how it's slowly declining in exelence.

The staff was so nice. My cousin and I had two different rooms right next to each other. They did NOT have a safe. BIG disappointment, especially since my cousin's American money was stolen out of her room where she hid it. We think it was the maid. We did not eat on the property so I couldn't tell people whether that was good or not. We ate breakfast across the street at Gus Gus for two weeks and the food and staff were EXCELLENT. We ate dinner there a couple nights too, and I can honestly say, the fish and other types of food were ALWAYS fresh, tasty, and prepared exactly as we requested them. Everything was great and convenient at this hotel. They just should NOT rent out rooms WITHOUT safes, especially since they have a THIEF amongst their staff.

My parents celebrated their 60 year anniversary here and the loved their experience. Staff was absolutely wonderful and made their stay memorable. Sofi, the front desk attendant, was attentive, super friendly and very helpful! Concierge went out of their way to help my parents find a local photographer so they could get some amazing shots to capture their special day. They were also upgraded so they could have a suite on the first floor and Sofi and staff gifted them a bottle of Champagne! The accommodations were great and the views were beautiful but it is the people who made their anniversary getaway so very special and I am so grateful for all they did.

I reserved a room that had no refrigerator. The front desk has a refrigerator for medication only. I gave them my $1,400 medication and 2 days later. When I went to pick it up. The bag was full water on the bottom and all 4 cardboard boxes soaked. I asked where it was stored? And ask to speak to a manager. The manager did not apologize, or admit any responsibility. Instead tried to blame me or pharmacy for condition of medication. When clearly it was contaminated during their care. Manager didn’t offer to replace either. Only caused me stress and anxiety the rest of my vacation. I was left disappointed in their lack of hygiene. As, they do not care for their guests health! Pool is extremely filthy. Even with googles on, I could see in front of me. The security is non exsistant, just walked around in circles. Yet allowed group grown adults to drink Pacifico inside pool. How is this sanitary ? Not to mention this is not family friendly. If you care about your health, do not stay here. They are cleaner hotels that value their customers.

We were able to check in about 4 hours early. Every employee we encountered was very friendly. We loved the layout of the 1 bdrm suite. Plenty of space and a gorgeous view of the ocean. On our first night, we had a lizard right above the AC vent that my husband had to climb on a chair to catch. It would be nice if doors in Mexico had door sweeps because almost every place we've ever stayed in they have big gaps under the doors. We used a towel to cover the 1 inch gap to help with noise, climate control, and lizard prevention. Wifi cut in and out and there wasn't password protected so anyone could join. Having just spent 10 days at El Cid in Mazatlan, we were disappointed to have spotty wifi. Other than that, our stay was great and we would stay again.

The room did have a nice ocean view. However, the plastic chairs on the deck were hard and the couch was hard, and the bed was hard. Even the chairs around the pool were very hard. No padding. The towels for the pool are tattered and ripped. We found a large cockroach dead in our room one morning. The staff were nice. I did find they catered to the Mexican people. The pool activities were only spoken in Spanish. We would not stay there again.

The building needs remodeling. If you end up in the X31-X60 room number range, where X is the floor number, you will be exposed to the central air conditioning compressor system, which is noisy. The shower drain has no smell lock, so the sewage system exhausts into your bath room.

This hotel is a bit older but it is located right on the beach.
The staff here were all extremely helpful, and the woman who cleaned our room every day was very thorough.
We thought the cost of a junior suite was very reasonable and saved us on the cost of eating out.
The hot water was not really that hot, and the decor is vintage, but we we would not hesitate to stay again at this hotel. Everything you need is nearby, and if there is anything you want help with just politely ask, they will do their best to help.

Nice warm pool all day/night 9pm long, huge win with my whole group. Everything was clean, staff amazing. We were impressed that from our rooms we could hear ocean. I loved the fact that we were so close to the Ocean. We couldn't even hear the traffic from front of hotel. We always felt safe. When u hear that people have been coming here for the last 30yrs. I fell walking on the big rocks at outlet, came back to Costa de Oro, went straight to life guard- Ricardo, i didn't have to ask, as soon as he saw blood he started working on me. I had him, 2 security guards n an English speaking front desk man helping me. Ricardo did what he could, then they sent me to in house doctor. He did what he could but because it was Sun he couldn't get extra supplies. So he called the ambulance and they took me to the marina hospital. They were great have to have 5 stitches to my head- from the time it took from life guard to end of hospital was 2 hrs...way faster then here in Alberta...I probably would still be sitting in emergency here. Everyone took great care of me. The only thing our group would like is more softer beds. I would also like a fridge in the basic rooms (since even in all inclusives they have fridges) and i wish there was a gym but I survived, I used the pool and ocean to exercise.We loved this place better than an all inclusive. We loved trying out all the different restaurants in area. We tried different place every night, prices were good n so were the portions n flavours.

We have stayed at the hotel on annual vacations for 30+ years. The location in the Golden Zone is fantastic and the pool area is one of the best in the area. However, there have been minimal if any upgrades to the rooms in that time. They have removed the water dispensers that used to be available on each floor so you now have to buy bottled drinking water. There are televisions in the room, but we had no English speaking channels this year.
The rooms are clean, but the decor is old and shabby. This year, there were dripped and splashed paint/whitewash on the floors , walls, and artwork.
The beachfront loung areas are fantastic, though security did not allow us to enjoy our coffee and pastries from a nearby shop on the pool patio. Any food ordered at the pool is now prepared at the poolside snack bar, and is not up to the quality it was when it was prepared by the restaurant. The Ceviche is excellent, but other items were cold or dry and overcooked. They seem to now cater more to the locals and those with all-inclusive stays than foreign visitors.
The hotel seemed to clear out many of our favorite staff members about 6 or 7 years ago. We are no longer treated like an old friend, but the new staff, while not the same, is still friendly and attentive.

The room had a mold smell to it, the bed had bloodstains on the pillow cover, the first night that we checked in they gave us a room key to our room. We opened it, and there was a family sleeping inside., that was scary, there are two babies, sleeping on a bed, and the mother and father and another bed, and they had not even noticed that we opened up their room. The bellboy ran to front desk to get it corrected, but I would hate to have been on the other side of that room.

This is an older property that needs some upgrades. Several things didn’t work in our room when we arrived. Second night a family moved in the suite above us and they kept dragging their chairs around and the noise didn’t stop all night. They moved us into a nicer suite for our last night which was nice. The pool is not heated and the hot tub is only for Gold members which we found a little unusual. The price was right, but we probably won’t stay there again even though the staff was great.

The elevator was very small and very slow. I cannot describe how bad the room and the building is. Two of our friends had to change rooms because the first room they were in was so bad.
