Puerto Escondido Hotels with Bars

This hotel is so run down that I’m baffled as to how it is still operating. In my opinion the positive reviews are illegitimate, if you order by latest reviews and the lower ratings you’ll find what I wish I had read before we booked here. In summary, the hotel reminded me of the places I would stay at when I went backpacking on a shoestring 20 years ago. So on arrival as a family of 5 for a week-long relaxing break from London, we were mortified to discover the state of the hotel and the adjoining beach club. Think mouldy plastic sun loungers (all of them), soft drinks served from a 4 litre bottle which was flat, cracked mugs and tables, mouldy showers and grouting in bathrooms (we had two rooms and both were similarly bad), damaged walls, bobbly, stained and grey bedsheets and tatty grey towels..to name a few of the issues. In addition to the bad state of the property, the service was abysmal. No beach towels left at the beach club, no tables for breakfast available (told to just wait), used drinks from others left outside our room all night and day, indifferent staff when I complained. We awoke to a loud scratching sound in our room which turned out to be a big crab fiddling with the electrical wires! When I demanded it be removed the staff did nothing until I complained to the manager. This hotel was so poor on every level that it bordered on comedy; it was simply unbelievable given how it presents itself on its website. The website photos are extremely inaccurate and misleading, as can be seen from my attached photos. For example, the “putting green” was so old and decrepit that it was not possible for the kids play with. We promptly left after one night (I will be seeking a full refund) and checked into the hotel next door (VillaSol) which thankfully had availability, has been very good and has an absolutely fantastic beach club- and is CHEAPER than Posada Real!! The fact Posada Real charges the prices it does is pretty much fraudulent! So save your money and your holiday and go next door.

The stay in the hotel was wonderful - the grounds are lovely with a very relaxed and happy feel to the whole place and the staff were all very friendly. We just had room and breakfast so didn't eat that much in the hotel but all the food that we had was excellent. The rooms were were excellent - a little bit tired in some parts, but then that's the case for every big hotel that i've stayed in and they were well cleaned every day. The public areas were all well maintained and cleaned. There is a bit of a hike down the stairs to the attached beach club (Cocos) but there is a shuttle bus if you don't feel up to it. I'd 100% go back there and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to family and friends

Hello travelers, since to be honest, the hotel has an excellent cost-benefit. I am delighted with the view of the main bay and the beautiful beach of zicatela. The room was very comfortable and was very comfortable. The most important hotel is the most attractive and very nice hotel, and the most nice hotel is the most attractive hotel.

I had a basic simple room facing the pool, it was quiet, I slept well. Room had its basic amenities, a double sized bed, a mounted TV, AC, a ceiling fan, a table two chairs, a fridge, a safety box, sink, a small hair dryer. The room is just right for one or two persons. The pool is pretty and inviting. The front desk reception, housekeepers, and restaurant employees were all friendly, helpful and professional. The hotel is surrounded by restaurants, shops, and the beach is right across the street. Great location for sure!

This so-called 4-star-hotel is totally overrated - the staff is very kind, but the paid breakfast is less then you'll get on an airplane, it's not more than a starter. You'll get no juice if you already took 3 tiny pieces of fruit. Or you'll get one glass of cheap juice from concentrate (not even real juice in a 4-star hotel!), but then no fruit. And don't ask for a second small glass of juice - you won't get it, you already had one. You can choose only one tiny meal, and nothing more. But no extras like chicken or so. Just tacos with a sauce on it. That's it. After this breakfast, you have to go to another place, because you'll be hungry as before. I'm staying in hotels around the world most of the year, but this breakfast is one of the worst I've ever got. If I were here on vacation, I would cancel right away and change my stay. The rooms are big but totally basic - I wonder how they got 4 stars - not even a fridge or a water cooker in the room. If you want more water than provided in the room, you have to pay. Sorry, this is 4 stars and we talk about water!! Never experienced this before, and this is not my first time in Mexico. They just want you to pay for everything. In the morning I wake up because the laundry is in front of my window. The view outside the window is a white wall. You will not get a good sleep here, because you hear EVERYTHING that happens in this hoteI. I would not recommend this stay at all for vacation, in a hostel I would feel more welcome. Read the other reviews - I'm not the only one with this terrible experience here, especially regarding the breakfast. We kindly told them our problems with the breakfast, but they are not willing at all to improve their service. Today at breakfast I kindly asked again: ”I believe it's not possible to get a second glass of juice?” - The answer: ”no, not possible, just one”. If it wouldn't be so horrible here, I would have to laugh. The pictures provided by the hotel are far away from reality.

When I arrived in my room, the first thing I said was, what a beautiful and spacious suite! I didn’t use the living room side at all, other than to store my backpacks on the dining room table. The bedroom was nice, and the bed was decent. The bathroom had a nice design and although it took some time for the hot water from the sink faucet to heat up, the shower hot water did not heat up at all, so my shower was an uncomfortable cool temperature water. The air conditioner worked well, and the property was extremely quiet at night, which I very much appreciated. The pool and lounge area looked to be relaxing, and was quiet while I was there. The only things I did not like, was housekeeping came into my room even though I had the sign on the door knob stating do not disturb, so I didn’t appreciate my sleepwear being folded and placed on my dirty suitcase. The other thing was, the small cockroach I found under my pillow trying to scurry away before disposing of it, then the spider in my bed the day of packing that I needed to eliminate to ensure no hitchhikers back home.

Let me start by saying that if you’re looking for a budget hotel then this might be a good option for you as the price was very affordable (however, the breakfast is not included and to be honest it’s delicious but quite expensive). The rooms were not exactly as nice as shown in the pictures, but they were still pleasant, the big upside was the floor which was made from like a marble or something which was very cold creating a refreshing breeze in the room (even though it was extremely hot in Puerto, sometimes we didn’t even have to turn on the AC thanks to that). The problem with the room tho was that the doors had a big gap on the bottom which allowed many bugs to crawl in especially in the evening when the light was on, so we had to fill that gap with our stuff, and there was also a gap on the side that we could not cover so mosquitos were able to fly inside which was very disconcerting for us. The biggest downside, however, was that while half of the staff was nice and welcoming, some were very rude and made us feel very unwelcome. It was a big surprise for us since the hotel talks about having great atmosphere etc (just like I’ve said tho not whole staff was rude, just some individuals). For example there was one lady in the reception who was very rude and did not even care to smile or say „hello” or „bye” back, when you’d say „Hi” she would just give you a hostile look and then go back to doing something on her phone which I think creates a very bad image for a hotel that talks about great atmosphere and about everyone being friendly. Fortunately, there were also some very friendly people that organised small trips e.g. for sunset viewing which was awesome. Overall, this is a very affordable hotel, but unfortunately the atmosphere is not as great as you’d think and because they organise some events (on the hotel premises) late in the evening or during the day it is difficult to take a nap or even fall asleep at night as the party can go on until late at night + it’s actually quite far from the beaches or from the centre of town, so be prepared to walk a lot.

I ended up here because some of my plans changed and I ended up in one of the best hostels I’ve ever been. As soon as you get here you can feel this lovely oasis vibe. All the staff is so nice and welcoming, that makes that every person you know on the way have a great vibe. The place is so social and chill during the day and festive in the night in the bar, but only until midnight because of bed time, so you can choose on going to a club with the other guests or staying for sleeping. The hostel and bar prices are excellent. Like $30 pesos each beer and really good cocktails. I hope to come back asap!
