Top Ixtapa Hotel Reviews

Krystal Ixtapa All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Great place for the price. Breathtaking views from the ocean view room. Lots of amenities and great food. Our favorite was the mexican restaurant for dinner and the cevicheria during the day, tacos in the evening. The bartender Lorenzo was super friendly and served us delicious drinks, he always made sure that they tasted exactly like we wanted. You can order drinks at the beach as well, they just down serve food (only downside for me). Plenty of umbrellas and chairs at the beach, the beach is super clean! No seagrass what so ever. The other thing I enjoyed was that they have nortenos that you can hire on the beach and a flying kite parachute . Very cool experience over all. If you want to buy soveneirs there is a small market off the strip nearby."

Fontan Ixtapa Beach Resort - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time we stayed. We like the Fontan the staff is very nice this time Julie one of the entertainment staff was excellent, nice funny and made our days and each of the activities we participated enjoyable. Thank you Julie. The only complaint that we have is that there is a lot of people and few staff . You have to make line to eat to check in to check out to get or ask for something and thanks a lot of time to get it or for someone to bring it to you . We asked for pillows and we never got them . Some towels and they didn’t have enough. Please pay attention to those little things that makes a lot of difference. "

Condominio 02 recamaras Enna Inn Ixtapa

6/10 Okay

"It was a nice condo, liked the 3/2 accommodations, the pools were crowded and a bit outdated, children and adults mixed in, not relaxing at all since children were allowed to run all over the place. I love children but they needed a safe children’s pool for them only."
