Good Experience

Had some difficulty with getting our room correct to start. The resort was okay, little out dated. Pier 12 and Shangri LA had good food, the steakhouse and the others were poor. The resort is good for very old couples, not great for middle aged single men. Great spot on the strip and weather was amazing in March.

Decent resort without many perks

It was a good clean resort that was missing bottled water in the room, a fridge or WiFi anywhere on the resort. Mediocre staff attitude. Beach, pool and restaurants were excellent. For the money definitely worth it, just don't expect too much.

2nd time around!

We've been here twice now and weren't disappointed. (2015 and 2019) Staff was kind and friendly and food was great and drinks were generous. I even won a massage playing black jack! My only negative is i didnt aquire a taste for the coffee. We will be back again!

Amazing staff

It was our first time in Mexico so we have nothing to compare it to but we really enjoyed our stay. The staff were outstanding and the resort was clean and there was more than enough options for food of any kind. We would definitely return to this resort

Good resort

Service at this resort is absolutely amazing! The staff is what makes this resort function. Rooms are out dated and the food was good but definitely room for improvement. Not much night life at this resort.

Soso resort but very clean

We were there last week and we were a little disapointed. Not a Tropical feeling. Contry music and dance music all week. The resort is very small. After 2 days you get bored. The beach is WAYYYY to wavy and to walk along the beach is a Zero cause its very oblique. So hard on the knees and feet. Could’nt enjoy swimming the Blue ocean. Red flag all week 😢. Its is a Clean resort and very nice staff. Oscar at the buffet always had the way to smile and joke with us. Rooms were very clea [... read more]n but old. Food was ok but not alot of option in buffet. Restaurents were good. Weather was amazing all week. Had still alot of fun with my partner.

Amazing vacation!

Just returned from the Golden Parnassus on Saturday. The resort is lovely. Everything within a few minute walk. The food was very good. The Old Barn restaurant was by far our favourite. We ate there 3 times with the charming Fernando as our waiter. Had fun at the Dolphin Bar. Jesus was a lot of fun. Our room was a delux ocean view. Well worth the few extra dollars. Amazing view of the ocean from the 4th floor. We celebrated my husbands birthday and our anniversary in the same week. Management le [... read more]ft us the most wonderful piece of cake and a bottle of bubbly and chocolate for our anniversary. Was very much appreciated 💖💖. There are not too many resorts we would go back to but this is definitely one of them. Room was kept spotless by maid. No issues at all. Tiki bar is the place to go in the evening. Did not see any of the shows so cannot comment on this. Thank you Golden Parnassus for a wonderful vacation!

Awesome Resort!

We had an excellent time at the Golden Parnassus Resort & Spa. The grounds and pool area were fabulous with plenty of room for everyone. The food was great as well. The service from the staff was incredible as they catered our every need. Beautiful resort. We will recommend this resort to everyone!

Super staff!

The food was excellent. The concierge was more than helpful when my husband got sick. The beach was beautiful and we had sunshine everyday. All the staff were happy to work there and it showed. They were amazing. I would highly recommend this resort.

Great Resort

The hotel and hotel staff were great. They have a lot of activities all day for people that want to participate on the beach and in the pool. The rooms were comfortable. I found the breakfast options weren't too many and the food was okay. I've been at resorts where there is more selection and better food. Also, you have to pay for WiFi. I would definitely go back to this resort.

Excellent service

My second time at Golden Parnassus. Smaller resort- it's convenient, everything is right there. Love not taking a golf cart everywhere... Rooms are clean, staff is helpful and friendly. They have lots of pool activities, karaoke night, a Mexican dinner night, etc.. See ya next year Golden Parnassus!!!

Great value

If you're on a budget and just want an all around comfortable resort , this is the one. Beds were very comfortable. Furniture a little dated and no extra frills unless you upgrade, however I really had no complaints for the price. If I had to express a needed improvement, that would be better lighting in bathroom and a little better selection at breakfast.

Alright

It is small, Did not like late check-in. 3 pm No fridge in rooms Did not like getting up at 6 am in order to get a chair. Never up early enough to get on beach. Needed more umbrellas The buffet for dinner should be open All staff were great! but the weather was awsome !! Sun everyday

Great vacation

Great staff, excellent service and lovely facilities. Wonderful pool, not enough lounge chairs and should be a smoking area. Great location for walking and shopping. Restaurant choices were amazing and food choices were varied.

Great and affordable Resort!

This hotel is well situated close to shops. The food was very good and I would go back! The beach is amazing for those who love to stay on the beach. Pool is awesome and the service is great! Must say the bedding was very comfortable too.

Amazing resort

For anyone who enjoys a vacation without children, this is the place. The food was amazing, as we're the drinks. The entire staff needs to be commended, especially the waiters and bartenders. The only thing was the lack of bottled water.

Just "okay"

My husband and I (ages 36+46) stayed at Golden Parnassus Nov 16-23. Hotel needs updating. Get an ocean view room as this was the best part of the hotel other then the amazing staff! The old barn steak house was the best resto along with the snack bar. You must try the burgers at the snack bar, delisssssssh!! Entertainment is lacking and boring. Beach is beautiful! Lobby bar boring and tacky. Tiki bar was ok. If you want adult only fun hotel, go to Temptation Resort.

Golden Vacation

Some edits in red - brackets to explain why I made the edits: From the accommodating hotel staff to the made-to-order mouth watering authentic food, Golden Parnassus exceeded all of my expectations! Minor set backs were turned into solutions very quickly. Upon arrival to the hotel, we discovered our deluxe ocean view was obstructed by trees. Without question we were moved to another room with the perfect view. Room service was an excellent option. It was so nice waking up with a cup of jo in  [... read more]hand and the ocean breeze in your face, all while sitting on the balcony watching the sunrise! FYI – a balcony is a must when traveling! Although the drinks could have been stronger, the sun made up for that. November was a great month for us to travel. The hot sun was the perfect transition into the cold holiday season back home. All in all I would give this place a 4/5. Prepare to relax, eat well and enjoy the view!

Good resort for the money

Stayed here from sept 30th to Oct 8th. Weather was great, one day of rain, the rest sunny with some clouds. Beach was very clean with almost no seaweed to speak of. Hotel grounds were very clean, as were the rooms. Most staff were very helpful and friendly, some were not. Food was not great. Breakfast buffet was ok, always found enough choices to satisfy. Restaurants were sub par, some terrible, like the high end one. Drinks were pretty basic and watered down unfortunately, and you had to pay [... read more] for bottled beer! Beach and pool area was great, lively and fun. Loved that it was a small resort, but missed having shows to go to in the evening like larger resorts offer. I would go back here if the price was right, but would eat out off the resort more often.

One of the BEST resorts

I have been traveling to Mexico for the past 8 years, both on the Mayan Riviera as well as Cancun. I have to say that the Golden Parnassus is one of the best resorts i have been in. As soon as you hop off the shuttle you are greeted by Alberto who brings you sparkling wine and has you sit in over sized chairs as the staff checks you in. We upgraded to the Club Room which provided us an afternoon cruise, 24hour room service, and a great view from the top floor. The room was clean and the staff  [... read more]were very attentive. Room service for coffee in the morning took less than 10 minutes. The restaurants were great. No reservations required and unlimited quantities so you could eat gourmet or steakhouse every night! I will be returning again. Stayed June 2015, traveled as a couple
