HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO EVERYONE COMING TO HUATULCO

Wow! Super excited to be able to travel once again after 2 years. This was our 3rd trip to Huatulco + our 3rd stay at Dreams. As always we had the best time. The weather was super hot as always + the resort amazing. We choose Dreams for the location right on the water, the rooms, the staff, the a la carte restaurants where you don't need a reservation + so much more. We talked at length to some of the management regarding their challenges the last 24 months (like we all have experienced).  [... read more]They had to lay off much of their staff, lost other experienced people + have just started getting busy again the last couple months. With that, the food wasn't as great as it had been pre-covid but we have such compassion + understanding that they too are trying to get back to "normal." For that reason, it will be our place to go again next year!!

Disappointed this trip

We were delighted to once again return to this resort. The staff are so attentive and helpful. Cleanliness and spotless is throughout the resort with staff wearing masks both inside and outside. Unfortunately the menus and calibre of food is definitely missing from our preCOVID visits with a couple of dinners being almost inedible. Portofino is still amazing. Buffets ok but Oceana and sister restaurant have poor dinner menu and food quality is dreadful. The Asian restaurant wasn’t much bett [... read more]er. Not sure if we would return although we enjoy the property very much

Ok resort

The resort itself is beautiful. Rooms are decent. It is not worth it to upgrade to the preferred club as there is no benefit to it. There is no preferred space on the beach or pool. We had no private check in/out. We also were not informed of Covid test on site & that it was free for preferred club. We only received corona beer in our fridge a couple days after that it was a cheap beer. Food was meh. We were there for 2 weeks & I basically had hot dog & fries for lunch every day & ribs for suppe [... read more]r. There is nothing to do in the evenings. Resort shuts down at 11. There were no seats available around the pool or the beach by 7 in the morning. Staff were friendly.

Amazing resort

We loved this resort..Staff very excellent..grounds beautiful..rooms wonderful..food mmm... The only thing is we would not recommend upgrading to Preferred Ocean Front...The whole resort is basically Ocean Front and if you had garden view you are looking at pools and are only few steps from ocean...

Amazing Resort

We spent the last week of January there with another couple and we also celebrated my husbands 60th birthday. It was perfect. The resort is quiet due to Covid but it was nice to enjoy the place with less people. The layout of the property was excellent, you can see the beach/ocean from just about every where. Even if you have a pool day, it still feels like you’re at the beach. They have paddle boards, single and double kayaks and Hobie Cats that you can just grab and take out, we used all of  [... read more]them. The staff are excellent, too many wonderful people to name but they all go the extra mile to make sure you are well taken care of. The restaurants opened on a rotating basis due to the lower occupancy but we were still able to eat at all of them and our favourite ones twice. We even had a private dinner on the beach, arranged by one of the restaurants, it was cool. The food is excellent everywhere and I’ve never eaten so much in my life. The place is meticulously clean and all the staff wear masks/shields. I felt safer there from Covid than I do at home. Canada requires a Covid PCR test in order for us to return home and Luis the concierge simply arranged it for us right in our room at the total cost of 5000 Pesos and our test results were emailed to us the next evening. Entertainment is quieter due to Covid but there was a live band every night and there was one dancing show. The excursions were fun, we went on the ATV / River trip and chartered a boat for the 4 of us to go snorkeling , all very reasonably priced. I can’t find anything negative to say about Dreams and would Love to visit again. You can take a taxi into town for 60 pesos and there’s lots of shopping available. I felt very safe here. I’ve been to many tropical resorts in many countries and would rate this one as one of my favourites. We LOVED this resort. My one suggestion would be to have a cocktail list as there are so many wonderful drinks to try but I never knew what they were all called.

Amazing Resort

The resort is very beautiful. It was a short drive from the airport. Very clean resort. Always someone cleaning. The beach was a beautiful sandy beach and the water was warm. Beach felt safe and protected. The staff was very accommodating. The pools were beautiful. Many to choose from. Great poolside service. Pool temperature was perfect. Restaurants were all excellent. I would highly recommend.

Good Resort with potential

The Dreams resort on first blush is lovely, the staff at the resort I can’t say enough good things about they were outstanding and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time! On closer inspection the property is starting to show its age and is in need of painting, repairs to floor titles and toilet seats are needed on all toilets. The rooms were clean but initially musty smelling until aired out. The constant fight for beach chairs and access to palapas or umbrellas is ridiculous eit [... read more]her buy more chairs and umbrellas or limit the number of chairs people can lay claim to, I shouldn’t have to get up before 6am each morning while on vacation to ensure we had chairs and shade available either on the beach or by the pools. The food was ok nothing spectacular the best meal we had was at the Italian restaurant one evening but when we decided to go back there for our final supper the menu was the same but the food presentation and quality was completely different and not for the good.

Relaxing vacation

Enjoyed are stay here food was good and lots of variety. A quiet resort with some families but mostly aged over 45. Enjoyed the walks on the beach and kayaking. Did notice people putting out towels on several chairs and not using them but that is just disrespectful on the part of the people not the resort

A definite Dream!!!

This hotel, grounds, staff, food and drinks were far superior to any resort we have been to. A definite dream destination that we would return to anytime. We travelled with our 9 year old daughter and felt very safe and she loved everything about it.

Fantastic Vacation!

Very nice resort. Rooms are clean and well kept. Food is very good. Some of the best we have had in Mexico. Nice beach and pool area. Friendly staff. Only negative is people getting up at 6am to save beach chairs.

Love this resort, except....

All great, except one thing - which we felt important. People were allowed to basically send someone out at 5am to reserve maybe 6 prime chairs (with umbrellas) around the pools, or on the beach. These were then unavailable to anyone else for the entire day. Same people holding the same chairs - every day, all week. The resort needs to fix this, or we will not be back.

Just Okay

POSITIVES: A great location, as it’s right down on the beach, unlike many other hotels in the area which are higher up on hills. Excellent staff, particularly the housecleaning staff, Irlanda in the Mezcalaria bar, and Daniela who is part of the concierge team. The hotel is clean, airy & well kept. Pools, grounds, and restaurants are extremely well maintained. We liked the room, bed, bathroom & spaciousness. The options of a quiet pool that was in a separate area was highly appreciated.  [... read more]Water stations are excellent, and the attention to environmental sustainability is very impressive. NEGATIVES: The food. Not good. It’s not what we have experienced in other resorts of this rating. Bland, dull and not much variety each day in the buffets. Entertainment: No cultural Mexican entertainment whatsoever! We've come for a Mexican experience. A rock band by the pool played LOUD music which caused us to leave the hotel. Nightly shows are a bit dated. Not much variety. This is a party hotel. It’s very noisy at night. There isn’t anywhere to go in the evenings inside the hotel that is quiet. On weekends there are weddings, karaoke in the lobby/bar, and loud bands playing in the lobby bar. No feeling of tranquility here. Note to the Management: There are clients who vacation who want peace & tranquility. Please consider us too!

Best all-inclusive Vacation!

Although this Dreams property is getting a little dated, it is super clean, the staff works 100%, and are very friendly, efficient and helpful. Drinks were great tasting as well as the food. The best part were the 3 infinity pools overlooking the gorgeous beach!! Water was a clear emerald colour, golden sand and minimal waves. The water activities were great, spa was sublime, and the overall experience was fantastic. We felt safe, and found the location to be perfect. Night entertainment was jus [... read more]t ok, but the live bands and dancers were amazing. There was something for everyone and we will definitely return.

Huatulco is lovely

Our top priority was the beach and it was perfect. Beautiful for swimming and snorkeling. Unfortunately we had to get up at 6 to get beach chairs. The room was a good size and the bed comfy. Our garden view wasn’t great as it looked at a sandy hill. Our second room overlooked the square so was quite noisy. This room also had no wifi. The food was good at the restaurants and buffet had a pretty good selection. We never had to wait for access to restaurants. The staff were ve [... read more]ry nice and really make the resort. The resort is kept very very clean. Oddly, many of the tiles have lifted and are in need of repair. We did not appreciate the high pressure sales team. Our vacation was to rest and spend time with family not waste it with sales staff m

It’s all good

Dreams was a beautiful location. As young adults there were not enough activities in the evening although we knew that beforehand. It was everything you imagine in an all inclusive resort. Food was good and plentiful. Beach was great. Eco Tour was fun and exhilarating. Our room was 2201 - we could not access wifi and it was aloud room as it faced the square.

Wonderful holiday !

As always the staff and the weather were amazing. Dreams Huatulco is a wonderful place to spend the holidays. Consistently good food ( lots of variety to please everyone in our family) , enough activities to amuse the teens, and good value for money.

Dreams Hautulco is a Dream!

First let me say that Dreams Huatulco is one of the most beautiful resorts I’ve ever stayed in! Tangolunda Bay is gorgeous. The resort was beautiful and very very clean thanks to the constant efforts of the cleaning staff! The service in all of the restaurants was remarkable! Pleasant and very helpful!! The servers were amazing…… Fast and happy despite the brutal heat, it didn’t matter where you picked to sit, there was always someone to make sure you had all you needed. I need [... read more] to mention Primi, she was incredibly good at her job while still being happy and efficient. All in all I was so impressed with all of the staff and there are hundreds ( at least it seemed that way lol)

One of the best resorts i have ever been too.

This resort was very clean, the help was amazing friendly, we couldnt ask for better weather. the food preperation was amazing, liked the idea of how many pools there were and at liest one totaly adult pool.entertainment at the lobby bar was good and lots of different kind of drinks, the washrooms on the resort were clean and working condition and the rooms were very clean. This resort is deffently a return one. LOVE MEXICO.

Dreams Resort and Spa - exceptional as always

We have been to this resort 4 years in a row. The people that work there are polite, hard workers and very friendly. We have made many friends in the past 4 years going to this resort and there are a lot of return guests every year which is nice to see. This is a very clean resort, exceptional food and service and the view of the ocean and the weather can't be beat. It rarely rains in Huatulco which is one of the reasons we keep going back besides the exceptional service at Dreams. I high [... read more]ly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.

Perfecto

Very friendly staff, beautiful scenery, fun ocean water (waves can get big /strong). The food was also good all around and we enjoyed every restaurant. They clearly aim to please and succeed! The location was also great, with lots of fun things to do close by such as surfing or visiting the town
