We stay at this hotel when we visit Hualuco. The economic value for this place is great, very clean and simple. If if you’re looking for a place to stay with a good breakfast and I’ll let you decide because everybody else has different taste for lunch and dinner. This is a great place to stay.

The beach club was very nice including the pool and the beach. The rooms were clean and decent with fantastic air conditioning. I wish I had known that there was no fridge or coffee maker in the room. Buffet 7-11 am at the resort and then 7pm for supper. Near the end of our stay, we found we could order a snack in between this time. There was a shuttle to the beach club starting at 9:30 am but there were no drinks served until 11:00 and no food until 1:00. It would’ve been nice to know these things ahead of time. The food was ok.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It was an okay place to stay for a few nights. Most people working here are really nice and helpful. Beds were quite hard and the bedding is not especially comfortable. We moved rooms because they were doing renovations including the roof and pool and it was loud. I would recommend a garden view because it is pretty, and more quiet than the pool and road facing rooms. Food was fine if you’re not picky. They play old music videos for entertainment at the one restaurant, but there is some live music in the lobby later on. Great location if you want to explore, with easy access to the marina, and there is a nearby path to walk and check out the town. The beach at the club is a quick walk if you don’t want to wait for the shuttle. The beach is not very swimmable and the pool is busy and not very relaxing. Overall we found it good value due to the location and people.

The staff were amazing and made sure we had everything we needed. We found the food just okay compared to other restaurants around. They cleaned our room everyday and it was pretty clean. The pool was a bit busy but the beach club made this property worth it. Gorgeous beach and not terribly busy compared to most beaches.

The hotel is outdated dark and low Ceilings for being in Mexico where is lots of sunshine, The buffet is very simple but good nothing fancy but good service, They have excellent location to one of the best areas in the Huatulco, They have rooms they are facing the street and they are super noisy I will stay again but avoid the rooms facing the street.

What i like is proximity to everything. And buffet options for breakfast. What i didn't like is no wi-fi or internet, multiple occupants in one room only one room key which controls everything ( power). The number one thing is expeidias dishonesty when choosing rooms don't think I'll use your service again.

Over all decent. My review is very limited as I never used the beach club, and only used the restaurant for 3 breakfast meals. I used Castillo as a hub. There are way too many other options for meals, beaches, etc. to go to. The staff was nice. My room was clean. They need to change the carpet in the elevators because they are full of mould. Just climb the stairs and all is good.

Spent 2 great nights in this hotel, would consider 3 but they were sold out - I understand why - very good spot and very cordial people and value service, all across the board. Supburb beach club, super good friendly staff, Frederico beach club driver soooooo like a family (we miss this place because of him also), very professional and observant staff at the beach club (I dropped my bag and they found me at my lunch table to bring it back to me), can’t say enough about wonderful people that make this place grand. Food was also really good, way better than expected. Happy to spend our time here and would recommend to consider at least 2-3 night if you are exploring the area and are on a go. Very good value, too. We are leaving this place with a great warm feeling and longing for more one day.
