This villa is probably in the top three of my favorite places to stay ever! The staff was incredible - catering to our every need. The villa was gorgeous and had all the amenities of home. The balcony was absolutely amazing with the private mini pool, the large lounger and the spectacular view - especially at sunset! They even had a special surprise for a life event that we were celebrating! We will absolutely go back and recommend this place 100%! And it was very close to the airport!

Our stay at Marea Beachfront Villas was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel right at home. Everyone—from the bell staff and front desk team to the restaurant, bar, housekeeping, and grounds crew—provided exceptional service and genuine hospitality. The villa was spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed with excellent amenities. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the beachfront location offers miles of stunning coastline to enjoy. With three pools and plenty of room to relax, this property is truly designed for unwinding and escaping the everyday. The food and drinks at Ola were outstanding, featuring authentic flavors and excellent quality. Every detail of our stay exceeded expectations. If you're looking for a place to relax, recharge, and enjoy the beauty of the Pacific coast, Marea Beachfront Villas is a wonderful choice. We had an amazing stay and look forward to returning very soon.

Marea has great management and staff, from Sofia and Luisa who helped me book tours that were just right for my family to Jaime and Jenni at the front desk and the amazing bar and restaurant crew - Fernando, Rodrigo, Carlos and Tirso! Marea is on a 20 km stretch of pure white sand each with almost no one around! The property is beautiful and the villas with plunge pools on the deck, beautiful interiors and comfortable furniture make it hard to want to go beyond your own front (patio) doors!

We very much enjoyed our stay, and the concierge and staff were very helpful. They do, however, need to better explain the free breakfast and we were unable to get any hot water in the shower over our two-day stay. Also, the cleaning staff did not clean glasses or replace coffee, which seems like a possible training issue. However, the beach was wonderful, the pools great, restaurant very convenient and helpful and grounds were fun. A good, enjoyable stay all-in-all.

No access to the beach

The resort was great, good housekeeping. But they need to implement more sources because they dont almost all year acces to the beach and in this situation you dont enjoy your stay. For this reason i dont think I will back.

There were a few issues that popped up with our room and the front desk was very responsive. Restaurant servers were nice. Drinks were a little weak. Loved the quiet pools!! We had transportation from the airport set up with the front desk and were told to pay our driver 500 pesos. Yet when we went back to the airport, it was only 300 pesos. So someone made 200 pesos by overcharging us.

We had a great time at Marea. The property is beautiful, very nicely kept. The beach is just wonderful, practically all to yourself as there are not many other hotels or restaurants on the beach. Our only disappointment was that the restaurant only serves until 5PM. We would rather enjoy more time during the day and have a later dinner, so this did not work well for us. Also, right in front of the porch and private pool of our unit F27 there were small palm trees planted, which completely blocked the beautiful view of the ocean. This was a big letdown as we were not able to enjoy the view while sitting in the unit's porch or in the private pool. Aside from these issues, everything was great and the people who assisted us during our stay were very nice and very attentive.

Fabulous location but disappointing

The location is fabulous with amazing ocean views and a virtually deserted beach for walking and swimming. Our suite was tired and definitely in need of a refresh. The continental breakfast was certainly nothing special but the a la carte breakfasts were great. Dinner on the other hand was dreadful! Overcooked shrimp, undercooked pizza, soggy tacos and tiny but expensive glasses of mediocre wine. The paths around the property were difficult to navigate at night due to poor lighting and uneven footing and despite giving us three codes for the gym we didn't get the right one until the third day. We were on a special birthday getaway and were expecting a five star experience. Unfortunately the place just didn't meet our expectations.

It was so quiet down there that we almost felt lonely - but a very good lonely. We were there mid week. there was nobody on the beach. We walked 2 1/2 miles down the beach, had 2 beers and walked back - saw maybe 10 people total! It's a beautiful, well maintained property. Our aeromexico flight was delayed multiple times but Luisa helped arrange transportation and had someone wait at front desk to check us in. Their communication was fantastic. The beach walks yielded the most impressive whale breaching show I have ever seen. our thanks to Luisa, Manuel, and the rest of the staff for a great stay. We would do it again. If you're looking for a very relaxing, get away from it all vacation - this is it. If you're looking for loud bands and exciting city life - not for you. On a 1-10 scale this is a 9.99! Drawbacks - the front desk closes early, as does the restaurant on site (but the food was great). Cab ride toward Barra de Potosi yielded many more restaurant choices. I only wish I could review the Mexico City airport and Aeromexico with the same glowing comments!
