Spent a few days here on a solo vacation. The resort is clean and on the smaller side. Definitely an older crowd as well. The area around the resort was nice with plently of outside food and shopping options. The food at the hotel restaurants was basic at best. Dont forget to check out the bar at the top of the lighthouse! The views are amazing and worth the climb up the stairs, or take the sketchy elevator.

The staff were mostly helpful, very nice and friendly. The management a little less so.
The Faro Bar restaurant was closed an two elevators down. We paid a premium despite limited bar service and offering.
Note you are unable to swim in the ocean at this beach due to unsafe currents. The beach is very quiet and clean.

Stayed here many times before new ownership. Love the updates the new ownership has done, don’t love the fact that it is becoming a timeshare or condo type situation. The workers worked very hard however, the resort was very understaffed. One area that has always needed improvement is in the food. I love the location, room was great, and the entertainment at the pool was great. And it’s Mexico, so what’s not to love!

El servicio fue increíble, todo el staff siempre fue muy amable, la comida es rica, es un lugar muy tranquilo.
Uno de los diferenciales del hotel es el faro el cual cuenta con restaurante y un bar, quizá podrían considerar abrirlo más días
