Villas Coral Huatulco: Good resort

Nice hotel, waterfront location, although not a beach front. Arrocito beach is just 5 min. walking distance. Good breakfasts. Afternoon/evening meals ($) are average. Attentive staff, although hard to communicate in English. The hotel is about 4.5 km from the town. Some issues re: money exchange (just cash exchange, you can’t buy Mexican peso on your card.

Dreams Huatulco: Bucket list - Dream resort!

This was a 2 week trip for my 86 year old parents. They used to snowbird every winter ( first to Mexico then the US) but things changed and haven’t been able to go anywhere for years. Huatulco was on their bucket list and they’ve been longing for the sun, beach and ocean. I selected Dreams because there is elevators and the resort is located very near the beach. No need for carts to drive you to the beach. They came home having had the best 2 weeks ever. To say the staff was caring and attentive [... read more] is an understatement - my folks felt they were treated like royalty. The food was amazing, the ate dinner at one of the restaurants most night but said the buffet was also excellent. Every need was attended to quickly and with kindness I highly recommend staying at this resort.

Secrets Huatulco: Relaxing vacation

We’ve been going to 5 star Mexican all-inclusives for 10+ years This resort is low key and enjoyable - no wrist bands and no towel cards - eat “a la carte” every night if you want and few to no line ups - helpful and pleasant staff - we would return to this resort

Dreams Huatulco: Lovely beach, lovely resort

We feel very lucky to have stumbled across this resort on the trip central website... We are a family of four and used many of the amenities! but every day we were back on the gorgeous beach at some point, with its perfect sand and nice waves and protection from the small island...super beautiful and relaxing. From beach volleyball to paddleboards to small sailboats, there's something for everyone who wants to play by or on the water! Picklebar courts were discovered too late! The rooms w [... read more]ere nice and clean, with excellent cleaning from staff. The beds were pretty comfortable and the bathroom well appointed. The food was a nice mix although the week we were there, there were several banquets so the chance to explore the different restaurants were limited. Highly recommend the coffee bar!

Las Brisas Huatulco: Second time at Las Brisas, and we will be booking again!

We love Las Brisas for the following reasons: Wonderful staff, a variety of a la carte choices and food choices at the buffets, spacious, clean rooms with gorgeous views of the ocean ( we were in the Mar section both times and had a huge balcony, Bering and Mediteraneo buildings). Our room both times was quiet, never noisy and always cleaned, mini fridge stocked. The staff never missed a day and if we requested more coffee or water, they provided it. We could not ask for a better room! We [... read more] never got the maid's name or even saw her, nor did we see the mini fridge person, but they did a fantastic job EVERY day! We always had fantastic service from front desk staff and the concierge when booking out a la carte. Check in was quick, friendly and easy! The ocean is SWIMMABLE, no undercurrent or huge waves AND you can see the bottom of the ocean clearly and NO sargassum/seaweed! There is one bay to swim and snorkel, one bay to swim and another activities and swimmable bay. We would spend our days in and out of the ocean. You can see many fish while snorkelling. There are plenty of loungers for everyone and shade! The grounds are beautifully manicured and cared for. There are 5 a la carte restaurants and a buffet. So many choices! We never went to any shows as we are up early and in bed early!! Pickle ball and tennis are extremely popular here! There are lots of places to walk and get your exercise. People say there is too much walking and hills and stairs, but the shuttles run constantly. You just call from your room and they are there in a minute or two. If you are out and about, you can easily jump on one. We prefer the exercise so rarely took a shuttle. They offer a bird watching tour every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It is approximately a 2 hour tour and definitely worth checking out! You meet in the lobby just before 7 AM. They do have binoculars you can borrow. We have so many staff that made our vacation special, it would be a long list, but the ones that were consistent EVERY single time we saw them, were the egg station beautiful ladies at the Mexican buffet, Eva and, I didn't get the other name...Arora, Agave? but they almost always worked together. They had the most wonderful smiles for us, and made our day! As well as they made scrumptious omelettes! The other very lovely lady was at the Brisas Beach Club Lounge, Novelle and she was the best. The Brisas Beach Club Lounge is open from 7-11AM for breakfast and 5-7PM for appetizers and drinks. It was such a nice way to meet people and the appetizers were scrumptious! Fermin at the Mexican bar is always friendly and makes the best margaritas! We booked Brisas Beach Club for a few reasons, that mean a lot to us, but it is your personal preference. We want a balcony, we want an a la carte every night, we like a room with a view and we loved the Brisas Beach Club Lounge! Here are some of the staff, that I asked for their names and who made having dinner even MORE enjoyable. El Pescador staff, Adrienne, Leonardo Mediterranean staff, Audifred Martinez, Gabriel, Alberto (who we met two years ago) We consistently had exceptional service at the Mediterranean. Main Buffet, Roberto - we only went once for lunch at the main buffet. Solarium staff, Omar and Pablo, Shayla, Marco (he took lots of photos for us, so nice!) La Pergola for lunch is nice and it opens at noon, where the main buffet opens at 1PM. We never went to the Mexican or Kasba this time. We never had any issues finding things to eat. There were lots of choices! *The only negative comment I can make about the a la cartes is that quite often the vegetables were not very hot, but the meat or fish would be*. Our first morning, we were looking for a lounger on the beach, and wanted beach towels, but were too early to get any. One of the staff overheard us, and went and brought us two towels! His name was Christian. Very thoughtful. ALL the beach waiters were awesome! They came around regularly. We didn't always order, but they still asked. We were impressed! We have to say that this is probably our favourite resort. Many guests have been here between 1-24 times, and are coming for 3 and 4 weeks now! That says a lot. We are definitely going to book the minute the dates and times come up and hope that the prices stay reasonable! With our most sincere appreciation to all the staff that made our trip absolutely perfect. I apologize for not getting every name. I need to bring a notepad and pen with me to each place! Looking forward to seeing you next year!

Camino Real Zaashila: Very nice. Well kept resort

Very nice quiet resort, beach is beautiful, freindly staff, but spoke very little English, Amenities say 3 restaurants, only two are open, a la cart is a 2 hour deal by the time you got your food and finished

Villas Coral Huatulco: Nedzadderv@gmail.com

Hotel is exelent,Tom’s very clean and roomy staf more then exelent.Hotel does have own beach so public beach is 7 min walking distance and it’s acceptable Nearest Town is Beaty interesting and very small amount speak English

Villas Coral Huatulco: Spotless place

Great location, great view of ocean. Staff was accommodating in every way. They have access to the ocean but playa Arrocito is 250 meter walk. Chef was excellent in preparing the food. Enjoyed the stay, will return

Las Brisas Huatulco: Las Brisas, Hautulco

First time visitors to this resort and it did not disappoint. We loved the beautiful greenery and as non-swimmers has one of the few beaches where you can swim without feeling like you’re being sucked out to sea! Food was great and the weather even better! Will definitely return!

Las Brisas Huatulco: Amazing environment but property outdated

The environment of the resort is amazing. The service of the staff is excellent and efficient. The food in the buffet and therestaurants is good but not excellent. The room is spacious and clean, but the condition and the decor is quite outdated.

Las Brisas Huatulco: Amazing Resort

We've been the Las Brisas Huatulco about a dozen times. It checks all the boxes. Set on a beautiful piece of land, with lots of tennis/pickleball, great swimming beaches, good food, comfortable rooms with great service and staff. We get lots of exercise walking around the resort but would caution anyone with mobility issues, ... this is not the place for you.

Las Brisas Huatulco: Amazing Resort

My husband and I just spent 10 days at Las Brisas in Huatulco, and we couldn’t be happier with our stay! The beaches are absolutely stunning—perfect for swimming and snorkeling for hours in clear, calm waters surrounded by beautiful fish. At the beach, Angel and Nadia were truly outstanding and made our experience even more special. The buffet offers a wide variety of options, so there’s something for everyone, and the à la carte restaurants serve delicious meals that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Secrets Huatulco: Amazing resort !

What an experience from the moment your arrive. This resort is outstanding! The grounds The food. The rooms. The service & the View !!! The staff are very accommodating with all issues I’ll be back

Secrets Huatulco: Great value for money

Beautiful and quiet area of Mexico. Better than average food for an all-inclusive, excellent service, beautiful views, beach and pool areas were great. Not an elevated luxurious experience but a hidden gem nonetheless. Would definitely come back.

Secrets Huatulco: Lacks Consistency!

Our room was clean and housekeeping was good. Turndown service was missed numerous times and even when we spoke to the concierge they stated it was because the red light was on; the light was not on! As preferred club guests, we went for breakfast at castaways on our first morning, it was terrible. My husband was served raw eggs, so we stuck with marketplace for breakfast the rest of the week. In speaking with other guests that were not preferred club, they received better service than we [... read more] did! For example, consistent turndown service handful of pillow mints and flower petals on bed. Preferred club bar was supposed to have top shelf alcohol, but in reality you could get it at almost every bar. Therefore, I do not know exactly what the additional cost was for! Overall our stay was okay. Our week was made brighter after we met Isai (bar tender at preferred club and sky bar). He remembered us by name, greeted us each time he saw us even if it was passing in a hallway. Also want to acknowledge Daniel, Josue, and Mario servers (in Marketplace) and Astrid (hostess in Marketplace), they were all warm and welcoming; Daniel especially. Other exceptional staff were Mardonio bar tender (Rendezvous bar) and Ismael bar tender (sky bar). Food at Ocean and the Teppanyaki experience was superb! The fire show and International show were fabulous!

Park Royal Beach Huatulco: Recommend this resort

Although it's a tad bustling for us quiet folks, I still recommend this resort. It's terraced so involves a bit of walking up and down to your room and to the beach dining hall BUT the open-air truck is always there to shuttle you. Plenty of activities around if you want them. When we're there (Feb/Mar 2025), the food is plentiful and of good variety. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the house-keeping very good. Depending on your booking, your room can be very spacious, such a trea [... read more]t! Some nights, music can be loud but usually quiet down around mid-night. Within walking distance, you have a few mini markets, pharmacies, a couple decent restaurants/cafe, an art gallery, and massage places. Not too far away there're towns such as Santa Cruz, and La Crucecita to explore.

Secrets Huatulco: Secrets Hautoluco

It’s a fantastic place for a relaxing getaway! The staff are extremely enthusiastic and genuine. Restaurants and venues to suit all. The private bay is breathtaking! The hotel shows its age, but will forgo renos next year.

Secrets Huatulco: Best Resort!

First time to Huatulco and to a Secrets Resort. Loved both. Rooms are incredibly comfortable - all have view of the bay (except those that walk onto the pool levels) ... The sand in this part of Mexico is coarse, tan sand (easier to wash off) .. it does get hot on one's feet. One must be careful with respect to the waves and undertow .. however, we were in the ocean daily. There are many pools - so never crowded.The snorkeling in this cove was not worth it .. we did not take the all day 7 Bays  [... read more]and Snorkeling tour (7 hr) but next time we will just take a cab to the National Park and snorkel there. The palapas are long rows (not individual) but we were able to enjoy the full day on the beach with good protection from direct sun. As the bay is not huge one cannot take 'long walk on the beach' as one does in the DR .. but no seaweed! Adults only - and more on the more 'mature' side .. so peaceful and quiet (perfect for us!). The restaurants are generally excellent (Burgundy, Tamarindo and Oceanis were our favouurites). We paid for Preferred status so had breakfast at Castaways most mornings. However, the buffet at the Market Grill was better than most buffets we have experienced. The staff were friendly and helpful We took one tour into town that we enjoyed .. We were there for 7 days and wished we had booked for longer (10 would be perfect). I am sure we will return.

Secrets Huatulco: Great Holiday

My husband and I had an amazing time with friends at the Secrets Resort in Huatulco, Mexico. This was the second time we have been to this resort and both times our holiday was everything we hoped for and more. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were always so clean and well stocked. I loved our rooms with a balcony view of the ocean from every room. I especially enjoyed the shower, very relaxing. There was always a large iguana outside, sunning himself in the same spot on [... read more] our floor. We spent time at both the pool and the beach every day. There is a perfect spot for snorkeling by the rocks at the one side of the bay. My husband and two of our friends saw whales breaching out of the water just beyond our bay, out in the ocean. I was happy to view them from the video that they took. The food was really good and there are quite a few restaurants to chose from. The Barefoot Grill by the pool provided delicious choices for meals like burgers, hotdogs, fries, guacamole and salsa, salads and ceviche. There was also a pizza oven and specialty food demonstrations set up next to the Grill on different days. The beer in a can was Aymstel. We took a 15 minute taxi ride into town. This resort has turned out to be our favourite holiday place.
