    Disappointing Experience Due to Misleading and False Claims with employees Jair manager upon checking in and employee Guadalupe I recently stayed at breathless cabos and, unfortunately, my experience was far from what I expected due to misleading information on their website and during the booking process. Also both employees said that it was okay to do a late check out by 2:00 pm and stated that rest assured they will notate on my reservation so we don't have to worry about anything well upon the day we are supposed to leave everything was a lie they did not have any notes from Jair or Guadalupe so everything I was told and promised was just a fairy tail to brush people off First and foremost, the description of our room was highly exaggerated. We booked a "luxury suite" based on the stunning photos and amenities listed, but upon arrival, we found a room that did not match what was advertised. The room was much smaller than expected, and several amenities, such as some restaurants were not available . We had a bad experience at the Nook cafe were the only employee that was working he was not feeling good we felt so bad for him we didn't end up getting coffee. Additionally, customer service was lacking. When I brought these issues to the attention of the front desk, the staff appeared indifferent and did not offer any solutions or compensation. It felt as though my concerns were brushed aside, which only added to my frustration. Lastly, the hotel was advertised as being in a "prime location," but in reality, it was quite far from what we expected Overall, I was disappointed with my stay, and I feel misled by the information provided. I would not recommend Breathless Cabo to others looking for an honest and truthful accommodation experience.

    This is an all-inclusive resort. Our check-in process was a little bit disappointing. We booked the hotel months in advance and had requested adjoining rooms or rooms next to each other because we were on a girls trip and celebrating life together. However, when we arrived, we were told that our rooms were not on the same floor. We insisted on changing rooms because we wanted to be together. In that process, our rooms were downgraded from what we had originally booked. Though we were on the same floor, we did not have adjoining rooms and they were several rooms apart. But we made due and had an amazing time anyway. The set up of the hotel is kind of strange. It consists of two buildings. You have to go up and down elevators to get from place to place. Walk up a huge set of stairs to get to the dining area. I don't know what we would have done if somebody was disabled in our group. There must be a way. First we were told dinner reservations were not required and then we were told but they were required. We had conflicting information about dining options. It all worked out and the staff were absolutely amazing. We loved the rooftop bar and the entertainment offered there. The restaurants were very good. If you want to eat Mexican food while you're in Mexico, it's not that easy to do at the Breathless resort. We had one night of amazing Mexican food. Other than that, they have Indian food, lots of seafood, Italian food, American food, and other options. This resort is really all about location, location, location! The views leave you breathless! The dining staff and activity directors were fantastic. We appreciated them so much. They really made our time at Breathless special. Both pools boast amazing views. The spa is top class. There is a deck in the spa with a jacuzzi overlooking the bay. This all-inclusive is definitely worth it.

    Oh my. I'll break it down. Short and succinct: -This place is for young adult party seekers. - nice hotel, strange layout. Adults only. Be sure to get the tour. Signage is non existent. Provided map is vague. - Food: Well let's just say Mexico has its own interpretation of familiar dishes you see on the menus. Don't expect to get exactly what you think you will get. I.e: curry shrimp-no curry, pad Thai was beef stroganoff. We tried many restaurants and food was mediocre at best. If you are a foodie you most likely will not like the quality of food. -Be mindful and careful about additional charges. I.e: Restaurants charge for bottles of wine. These are not inclusive. And are priced 3-4 times their usual cost. -Rooms clean, nice , maid service was good. Thumbs up to that - Pools: There are 2. Infinity pool on beach side- Extremely loud bebop and rap music. There is also a smaller infinity pool bldg 1: nice quiet calm pool. There are service attendants at both pools. Be sure to tip them. The guys at the beach pool seem very focused on the pool bed renters and tend to ignore the older white guys like me sitting at the periphery. - When at either pool be sure to ask attendant how to order food. The attendants are not good at informing guests of their conveniences. All inclusive beverages: This one was frustrating. I could not get a good drink for my life anywhere in the hotel. Booze was absolutely watered or thinned down somehow . A martini was mostly vermouth --yuk! I finally only ordered wine...thinking you can't fuck up a glass of wine. Although I thought hard how they might try :) Conclusion: Avoid all inclusive hotels. Instead enjoy the local cuisine. There were plenty of authentic eateries around this hotel in Cabo. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

    Wow, where do I begin? What a great place to stay, especially as a woman I felt super safe here we were in a group, but even at night I was able to walk around and not be worried. Cabo was a dream and it was awesome to be able to swim in the actual ocean I heard that this is one of the only beaches that you could swim safely in Cabo. We were right near the marina and honestly, I didn't hear a lot of noise in the morning but I'm also a pretty good sleeper. This is a very large resort. Definitely to get your steps in. Food was good with smaller portions since we were in a group we shared a lot of items. All the employees were friendly and service was incredible thank you breathless I hope to see you again. I am sober from alcohol, and I really enjoyed the coffee bar ! I went every morning and even afternoon and got so many different drinks and I just want to thank the people at the coffee bar making my vacation, I know it sounds so silly, but it really made a difference in my world.

    Honestly (might edit later) after my first day here my only complaint is the SEALS..... they are constant and relentless with their omnipresent ORR ORRRR ORRRRRRR. I'm not even exaggerating..... it's been going on for the last 18 hours. Constant. ORR... and then when you're about to ORRRRR tell a story or watc...ORRRRRRRRR..h a tv show or drink at the ORRRRRR bar, it's always ORRRRR ORRRRRRRRRRR ORRRRRRRRRRRR

    This is my second trip to Breathless and is my favorite hotel. Not too fancy not too trashy. Pros: -All rooms face either the ocean or marina. The views from the room are gorgeous. -Walkable downtown marina area. -Staff is super friendly. Shout out to Carlos and Mariano. -Beds are comfy and room air conditioner works wonderfully. -Wink the lobby bar is the best bar. -Bites is the most consistent restaurant with better food. - DJ was great. The pool in the 2nd building is definitely for a younger crowd or people who don't like loud music. -Security is all around the building outside. Cons: -The sea lions are menaces. They can get loud at night. - Food was inconsistent at Kibeh - Timeshare sharks are annoying but just be firm with your no thanks and be on your merry way. -the two separate buildings can be confusing your first visit. This place is not perfect but honestly the most important things to me were not an issue. I do plan on coming back as we always encounter good people.

    Step outside the resort to Playa El Farito. The resort has free lounge chairs, a shower station and you can check out a paddle board.

    Breathless is an all inclusive adults only resort that is in the middle of both the beach front and the marina with walking distance to the downtown boardwalk. We paid extra for the upgrade of the Xhale room /Lounge . Personally I don't feel it was worth the money so you can skip it if you can save the cost. You do have special access to the Xhale lounge with a more private bar and sushi bar from 4 to 6pm but the sushi was not very good. The rooms all have amazing views of the beautiful marina. Our room was not really updated with the hallways currently under construction. The night time entertainment was really good with a roof top club / DJ, some nights fire dancers, and always afternoon events at their party pool. There are two infinity pools. One is more intimate and quiet the other has lots of upbeat music and events. There is also beach access with lounge chairs and a shower to rise off. They have free paddle boarding rentals from the hotel. The hotel is walking distance to the downtown marina with lots of bars, store fronts and restaurants. Be prepared for all the hagglers trying to sell you trinkets, excursions and what not. It's part of the experience. The restaurants at the resort were really hit or miss depending on who was in the kitchen that evening. We were very lucky to attend a cook out where they had fresh street tacos, a chef who was grilling meats and lots of hot sides. If you can, I was told by many other guest and also experienced skipping the Italian restaurant because the food was horrible. It was overcooked, over salted and poorly prepared. The seafood restaurant and Bites were my favorite! They have a coffee bar / barista in the morning to afternoon. They make drinks from coffee, lattes, frapps, protein shakes, and smoother with pastries and min desserts. They have a 24 hour bar for alcholic drinks. The service through out the resort was excellent as all the staff are super friendly and nice. You can always go to the front counter to ask for change in US dollars if you want to tip. We didn't bring any pasos and we're fine. Everywhere in this area accepts US dollars, except they give you change in pasos. I really enjoyed the convenience of the room service. Ask for fresh fruit and their fresh squeeze orange juice in the morning. The daily house keeping did a poor job. Half the time we had fresh towels. The other half of the time they forgot to refill our fridge with water and the coffee maker with new pods. We even called house keeping which they assured us was going to happen, but didn't. If you do their 90 minute spew during breakfast for their time share like event, they hook you up with ameitites / excursions. We got $250 spa and $250 excursion credits. So bargain away with something you really want to do! The spa was beautiful and amazing. I got a 80 min deep tissue massage and it was so good. They also have a hot tub, a steam room and sauna which you can access without purchasing a spa treatment. You do have to request it. Overall, the resort has an amazing location, despite the rooms and hotel hallways looking scuzzy, the staff were all very friendly and kind, the restaurants very hit or miss, the night time entertainment was fun, the pools / pool parties entertaining, the beach access is great, and walking to downtown cabo so very convenient!

    Great hotel and even greater staff! When we arrived we met Alejandro. He was super helpful and very friendly. He made our stay perfect! The hotel is a good size. They have many restaurants to choose from. Hotel rooms are nice, you get a great view of the marina. Staff is very friendly. At the xhale club lounge we met Luis which was great! He made delicious drinks and was very friendly! The staff at Ocote were also very amazing! They cooked fish that we caught spear fishing. Some of the best tasting fish we had! Also the room upgrade is definitely worth it! I highly recommend this resort!

    My husband and I went here for our second wedding anniversary/honeymoon! Things we loved: it's all-inclusive, so I loved having access to unlimited food and drinks. We were not part of the XL membership and genuinely don't feel we missed out much. We met some friends there who had signed up for XL, and really, the only difference is the check-in and the top-shelf liquor in your room. Again, I don't feel like I missed out on much because I wasn't really in my room for most of my trip. The resort is in a perfect spot in the Cabo San Lucas area. It's pretty much within walking distance from the downtown area, with lots of restaurants on the pier and souvenir shops; it has a perfect view from the second building of the ocean. I loved the private Sand Beach. The beach itself is public, but they have an area just for Breathless members so you can sit back and enjoy the sun in the sand. They always had daily activities for people to try, like painting, workout sessions, beach volleyball, and more! If you're looking to stay at the resort only and not go outside to any restaurants or excursions, the resort has a lot to do to keep its guests busy and happy, so I think it's entirely possible to stay there if you really want to. It's also adults only, so that is another positive. My husband and I tried every restaurant except one, the Spumonte. If I go back, I want to try it because the food looks really good there. Many people raved about the Ocote restaurant, but my husband and I weren't big fans. The worst dish we had was at that restaurant, but it just wasn't as mind-blowing as everybody made it seem. I visited the bites restaurant the most. Their breakfast items are delicious. I think I tried something different every single day. I was in heaven. The service was terrific. Everybody was so lovely. Also, if this is your first time, I recommend bringing money to tip the servers and service staff as a nice gesture. If you're from the US, we just brought a few ones and tipped each time we were helped. Also, most of the staff speaks primarily Spanish, but for the most part, as long as you're not asking anything too tricky or detailed, they understand what you're saying. My husband and I spoke Spanish, so we had no issues. One thing that I didn't realize, or maybe I forgot, is that this resort is divided into two different buildings. The spa, gym, and second pool with the DJ are in the back building. There's also a second-party rooftop (they play every other night). We weren't really given a map or instructions when we checked in, so we kind of figured all of that out on our own. Our room was nice. We had a view of the pier and the boats. In the morning, the boats are a little loud, and the businesses that run those boats are not entirely quiet. Also, I had to use a hair clip to keep the curtains together because too much light was coming into the room, even with the black curtains. I loved the view, though, and at night, it was really pretty. Another review said it was the team's version of Greece, but I think it's so much more than that! Cabo is a truly pretty area. All in all, I don't think I had a bad experience at all. The food and drinks were really good, and it's definitely a relaxing spot for anyone looking to celebrate birthdays, honeymoons, anniversaries, girls' trips, etc. They set up a cute honeymoon tag on our front door, and I thought that was so thoughtful. When we walked into our room, we had complementary wine and cake! I would definitely come back and recommend this resort!

    Breathless is probably one of the best all inclusive resorts I have stayed in Cabo. We recently went to Sandos and it blew Sandos away! The food and drinks were way better at Breathless. The rooms are much more updated compared to Sandos and have a better view of the marina. There was turn down service every night, and the staff would constantly clean/mop the common areas which was appreciated. The restaurants were decent for an all inclusive resort, but service was slow which is typical for resorts like this. The staff was very friendly. Breathless is a smaller resort but the overall vibe of the resort is fun! Always activities to do and it is definitely catered towards adult entertainment. The only downside was they were doing construction at one of the pools and it was very annoying - but I am glad they are putting work into the place and it is being updated. I absolutely recommend Breathless for anyone looking to stay at an all inclusive resort in Cabo!

    I've been to Cabo about 6-7 times now and stayed in both downtown and further away at secluded resorts. I'm surprised by some of the reviews for Breathless Resort on yelp. I thought it was a great little resort if you want to stay in downtown Cabo at a reasonable rate, that is adults only & all inclusive (you enjoy eating/drinking). Here are a few key points: 1) If you're a picky eater, you shouldn't choose an all inclusive resort. 2) This hotel is geared towards outgoing people who like to party. There's a pool party at the resort hotel with loud music blasting & heavy drinking. It's also an easy 15 minute walk to all the popular bars/clubs. 3) If you don't drink alcohol, don't bother - you won't get your money's worth. 4 If you are a light sleeper, stay outside of downtown. There is a lot going on within the marina but the seals/sea lions are barking all day/night - it's very loud and annoying. 5) Downtown Cabo is old, if you prefer something newer, you should look outside of downtown and find one of the newer resorts. I enjoyed my stay here. I love to drink. I know how to set my expectation for food at an all inclusive considering the price range. If I'm paying thousands a night, I'd expect the food to be fabulous but I was completely fine with the food/service...as a foodie, I can figure my way around the buffet and various menu's. Bites was by far the best for lunch/dinner. I really enjoyed many of their dishes, especially the ones with their fried shrimp (tacos, po' boy). In the evening they have a few options for sushi - totally acceptable. The rolls were fine and the raw fish was decent quality. Don't compare it to the sushi restaurant in the states. Spoons (buffet) is the best option for breakfast. I saw all the guests ordering the omelette which I thought was a crazy thing to do in Mexico. Their chilaquile was legit & made to order (request both red/green sauce). Fish Net was my favorite restaurant with the best view. If I were to do it over, I'd dine here every night. We had the steak with chimichurri sauce & the paella was delicious as well. Spumante (Italian restaurant) was mediocre and I'd skip it. The hotel has 2 buildings and 2 pools - their pool scene isn't anything spectacular compared to other resorts in Cabo. I stayed in the building with the lobby/front desk - it's the quieter building with the quiet pool.. The pool party is in the other building and most of the restaurants are in the other building. It's a bit of a walk but with all the eating/drinking we can all use the extra step count. The lobby bar was my favorite - they had live music the nights we were there. A few bartenders were legit and a few were awful - remember the good ones, it makes a huge difference as there isn't consistency. Their Miami Vice was a tasty drink to have pool side (but each time it tasted different). At night, I asked one of the bartenders to make a pear martini and it was good enough to be served in a trendy restaurant in LA. Rooms are old but clean and had a beautiful view of the marina. I had a few issues with the stocking of fridge (awful beer!) and the room service can be slow. The beds were comfortable. All in all, I'd totally recommend this resort to people who are low maintenance, love to party & want to be in the center of everything. I enjoyed the drinks, food and the overall quaint ambiance of the small resort.

    I love this place, and so does my fiancé. Thank you to Manuel, Vianey, JC, Steph, Nelly, Brenda, and Jessi... And YAMILL especially too. These are the people who make this place worth coming back to trust me my fiancé and I will be coming back here. We are working on planning our wedding here for the future. We don't know when it will be, but we definitely know it will be here. The food drinks staff rooms service, and every single element of our stay has been incredible. I have no idea why there are bad reviews of this place. Everything is perfect. Es PHENOMENAL. Especially if you are coming here from the US, it is very good value for your money. I stay in resorts in the United States for much more money and it is less service. The service here is insanely good. Especially if you want to do activities on the beach or at the pool, these are your people to go to Breathless Cabo . They attended to her every need and our anniversary was well celebrated especially with decorations in the room and desserts and champagne. The fire show was amazing as well as the server ISAAC at OCHOTE.. Incredible. Right now, I will tell you that this place is safe, fun, and worth your money and time. This is my second time here I went with my friends the first time and the second time I am now here with my fiancé/husband to be. Everyone I mentioned will make her stay incredible so make sure to directly ask for them.

    Hubby and I stayed at Breathless for 5 nights over Thanksgiving with another couple. Great location overlooking the marina. If you are a light sleeper, you may not like the sea lion alarm clock. But I had no problem at all because I slept well in their comfortable bed every night.  They decorated and had welcome desserts ready to celebrate our 20th anniversary and also hubby's birthday month. It's just a few mins walk and you are in the downtown shopping and eating area.    Pros -Everyone is friendly and hard working at Breathless. Big kudos to everyone! Definitely bring small bills for tips. We had the best meal at Fish Nets - order those octopus tacos! Quesadilla and soft tacos were delicious at Bites. Green drinks, waffles, and pancakes during breakfast at Spoons. Good drinks all around, especially at Xhale lounge bar. Daily caffeine dose at The Nook Cafe. We ordered room service a couple times for early breakfast, the PB&J with bananas was delicious! Didn't get a chance to use the gym, but we did a couple runs around the marina in the morning. Took a water spin class, it was a hoot! We made use of the spa 2x.  If you get a massage in the PM, you may be required to wear headphones as the spa is right next to the noisy party pool. They need to upgrade the headphones to noise canceling ones. But otherwise, the massage was wonderful. Thanksgiving pavo dinner was delicious. Stephanie and Perla did a great job guiding our hike to Cerro de la Z. Alexis with amazing service at Bites by the pool. Hilda tried her very best to get us on the whale shark tour, but we were just too early by a couple days.   My only con - We thought Rafael was VERY pushy.  We were pressured into attending a presentation for UVC trying to get you to spend a lot of money to become a member of their travel club. It took 2-3 times as long as he said it would and we were getting upset by the end.  It was a very unenjoyable experience. He also went ahead and put down a deposit for our party of 4 for a sunset cruise when we had never confirmed it. I'm not a big fan of cruises in general but we felt pressured and obligated to go.  Again, the cruise was not enjoyable because I got really sea sick.   There was no hot water the morning of check out, and I wish there are towel racks in the bathroom. I used Hyatt points to stay here, would recommend staying here for the location and the beautiful marina.

    The resort sits right on the marina, so it's lively with plenty of people, boats, and yes--even sea lions.

    Wow. Just wow. 5 stars all around!!!!…read more I don't have a single complaint about the Waldorf which really blew my mind. Yes it is quite pricey but for once, the price is justified by the impeccable customer service, room quality, and maintenance of this resort. It is the perfect blend of modern and elegance and screams luxury without trying too hard. It's close to the marina as well so easy access to other restaurants, shopping, and tours. We stayed at a 3 bedroom villa and the week flew by. The rooms were spacious, well kept, clean, and stocked with everything you need. We had our own private plunge pool to soak in whenever we wanted to. You are greeted upon arrival with a welcome drink and they gifted the kids an adorable sugar turtle cookie when we departed! They offer sample drinks and popsicles at the pools. Their attention to detail is flawless and everything is well thought out. The resort has an adults only pool, a family infinity pool overlooking the ocean, and another shallow kids pool. Plenty of lounge chairs and was never too busy. The food was fantastic from the poolside kitchen to the on site property restaurants to the private chefs. Honestly some of the best food I've had in my life. The spa is world class and I highly recommend it. We had some of the best nail service, massages, and facials ever. Everyone is well trained and very skilled and experienced in their area of expertise. They have complimentary golf carts that take you anywhere on the property and we never had to wait for one. Everyone is so friendly, inviting, and professional. I truly appreciated everyone's hospitality and warmth. The best part was our private butler who cooked our meals, arranged all activities and transportation off the property, did laundry, and even found our missing shoes that flew across the resort! lol. Our butler Ricardo was amazing and such a delight to have. This is a once in a lifetime experience that everyone must indulge in. It's worth it.

Other than that, best stay i've ever had in terms of everything. Room, aesthetics, service, and location. Room was super spacious room with a soaking tub and rainfall shower, each room comes with its own plunge pool with water temperature set at 82 degrees so you can swim in it anytime. It also comes with a fire place, which comes in handy at night. The room is also equipped with binoculars for whale watching, very thoughtful. The service was top tier, better than Ritz Carlton and other Wardolf location I've stayed at. You get a personal concierge that can help you with whatever you need 24/7. Shout out to my concierge Raquel, she made the stay so much smoother. The location is prime. Walking distance from a lot of restaurants, bars, and clubs. If you don't want to walk uber's about $5-10 bucks.

The resort lobby has a very high cupola ceiling with an oculus at the top: lots of light and a nice airy feeling all around. Marble and wood and glass, plus comfortable high back chairs make you want to linger and chat while sipping a welcome to the resort margarita. There were six of us on vacation, we did the all-inclusive so didn't have anything but ourselves to lug around, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience at Playa Grande; from a great buffet and omelette station at breakfast, to the swim up bar, dinners at Brigantine, and the beach Fiesta on the second night. Colima restaurant is where we had breakfast : omelette station, great assortment of yogurts, fruit cups, smoked salmon, pancakes, eggs that are scrambled or poached (besides the omelette station) bacon and sausages... Mimosa at the table, orange and green juice at the buffet area; there is a full bar at Colima should you want something more. I am sorry I didn't make a note of our server's name here, he was polite and friendly and deserved a mention. I have more photos but can't seem to upload them now, maybe too many all together, so I'll add them later. We had a great time at this resort, enjoyed the days together with our friends, got tanned and had excellent service from everyone. In the lobby area there's a bar that makes good cocktails, fries and calamari, burgers. One night after dinner they made us Mexican coffees where we were sitting, it's so fun to watch the liquors flame up as they're poured into the glasses in metal holders :)) and very good to drink. The beach isn't a swimmable one at all, the currents and tides are very strong with two water systems colliding here at the end of Baja California sur. At night sleeping with the windows open I could hear my beloved ocean and feel a lovely breeze. Thank you to everyone at the resort that we interacted with: you were all fantastic! ¡Gracias, y espero volver a verte!

And the clerk was more friendly. The food here is also mediocre at best and it is expensive. I'm not sure why people come here.

I spoke to him and told him he should be nicer. He was drunk and decided to hit on me, which is insane. I kept saying, no, you need to be nicer to your girlfriend. He kept pushing me. He decided he wouldn't take no for an answer after I told him I didn't want to be hit on or talk to him. He became increasingly aggressive. I tried to keep de-escalating. He told me that we WOULD get to know each other. He pushed his phone to me with his Instagram. It was full of pictures of naked women. I went to the host desk. I smiled, so I wouldn't upset him further. I kept smiling and told them I needed him to go away. He came up behind me. They called hotel security, who quickly came over. The man (Ryan) left with his bottle of wine. Security escorted me to my room. I saw him waving from the balcony of a room above mine, very near. I asked to be moved. I was frightened. They changed my room, but I did not sleep the entire night. The next morning, I spoke to the manager, Francisco Escuer. He told me: "I watched the tape, you were talking to the man and smiling. You smiled at the host stand. Why were you smiling if you were asking for help to get away from that guy?" I said, "Because he was coming after me, and that's what women do, so we don't aggravate men we know are dangerous." He said, "Well, his girlfriend didn't report anything." Again, I said: "Women don't report abusers because they are not believed, just like you are not believing me." Escuer also screamed at me and accused me of recording our conversation. He made physical gestures toward me during this. I told him I needed the tape, his information and the hotel's information. He refused to give me anything and yelled at me. I had to check out, pay for that stay, and another hotel. Escuer/the hotel are not safe for women.

    We just had our wedding at Casa Dorada in April 04 2026. We had family and friends staying here for…read morean entire week. We heard nothing but raving reviews from our guests about the rooms and cleanliness of the entire resort. I already had family and friends asking when we can come back for our anniversaries lol. Now for our wedding: The planning through Casa Dorada's wedding coordinator, Katherine Anaya, was seamless and so easy. I can't express enough how amazing she was to handle everything for my husband and I since we are from California. The location of the resort is perfectly on the beach with nearby bars and restaurants. Yes you can hear the music from the bars but it stops at 9:30/10pm. Didn't hear any complaints from any of ours guests (ages 25-83). The wedding ceremony and reception was at the 12 Tribes Terrace and they really transformed the atmosphere to be exactly how I envisioned the wedding! If you're hesitant about doing a destination wedding in Cabo, I researched about 20 resorts and landed on Casa Dorada because of the value, location and how beautiful the resort looks. We are so happy with how our wedding came out and how amazing the staff is at this resort. We want to highlight our amazing wedding planner (through the resort) Katherine Anaya who handled everything for us and made sure the whole wedding experience was stress free and seamless for us. Her first impression through email with me truly made me feel her hospitality and kindness. Meeting her in person for our pre-wedding trip January 2026 just solidified that we have an amazing person helping create our wedding vision and bring it to life! She even went as far as having a custom wedding slideshow playing in our hotel room that had our pictures from our wedding website. The attention to detail Katherine gives is beyond what I could've ever imagined from anyone! Another person I want to mention was Rene at the 12 Tribes Restaurant. We met him during our pre-wedding trip and he handled everything with ease for our signature His/Her drinks and our food tasting samples. Right away his great hospitality and kind spirit could immediately be seen and felt. For our wedding in April 2026, Rene remembered us and gave nothing short of excellent service during our entire wedding week when we saw him or ate at the 12 Tribes restaurant. Rene was actually a server during our wedding and was making sure everything was going smoothly and made sure we felt at home. Two more people who are worth mentioning: Heriberto at the swim-up bar and Michele at the B Bar. Two awesome people who love what they do. They remembered us each time we came back to them. They remembered our drink orders and truly made us feel like family there. If you're thinking about a wedding at Casa Dorada, my advice to you is do it and you won't regret it. It truly felt like our home away from home. Muchas gracias Casa Dorada!!! We will definitely be back! This isn't goodbye, but see you soon!!

Work…read morestarted early in the morning and continued throughout the day, making it impossible to relax or enjoy the peaceful atmosphere we expected. To make matters worse, construction workers were using the area around the infinity pool, with large wooden beams blocking parts of the space. Instead of enjoying the beautiful pool, we had to deal with an active construction site. The constant sound of power drills and other construction equipment during the daytime completely ruined any chance of resting by the pool or relaxing in our room. Had we known that major construction was taking place, we would have chosen a different hotel. I understand that maintenance and improvements are sometimes necessary, but guests should be informed in advance, and the hotel should make every effort to minimize the impact on their stay. Unfortunately, this experience fell far short of the relaxing vacation we had hoped for.

Views: excellent Staff Hospitality: outstanding Room Cleanliness & very dated décor: poor Bed: super firm, however not uncomfortable PROS: Spacious rooms with a washer/dryer, fridge, microwave, and stove. Stunning views throughout the property. Only one on-site restaurant, but the food is relatively good (though the menu is limited), and they offer a 10% discount for hotel guests. The staff is genuinely exceptional. CONS: - Bathroom cleanliness is a major issue: black mold in the grout and orange mold on the shower curtains. - Sinks appear not to have been properly cleaned in a long time. - Very dim lighting and an exhaust fan that is jet engine loud - magnifying mirror is mounted at about 6 feet, which is impractical for most guests. - Housekeeping only removes trash or refreshes the room every three days.

The food was consistently good, and the Lazy River is definitely the standout feature and biggest selling point of the property. The rooms and grounds were well maintained, making for an enjoyable stay overall. That said, there were a few areas where the experience fell short. Pool service was inconsistent, and there often seemed to be a shortage of pool towels. Entertainment options were limited, and with only three restaurants on-site, dining choices felt somewhat restricted. Of the three, Latitud 23.5 was by far the best and the one we found ourselves returning to most often. Guests should also be prepared for a fairly aggressive timeshare presentation pitch. Additionally, the advertised complimentary 45-minute massage per room for direct online bookings appeared to be more of a marketing gimmick, as multiple staff members seemed unaware of the promotion during our stay. While we had a pleasant experience overall, we're likely to try a different resort next year. The Lazy River was the highlight, but the overall experience wasn't quite enough to bring us back.

    Failure to Honor Group Code Benefits, Poor Room Conditions, and Unresolved Billing Errors…read more Our recent stay at Pueblo Bonito Sunset was marred by multiple service failures, misleading pricing practices, and unresolved billing issues. We booked an all‑inclusive Junior Suite using a group code for a milestone birthday celebration. The reservationist justified the $400+ price increase over the website rate by promising additional perks and cancellation coverage. None of these promised perks were honored. Beyond the pricing concerns, the room itself was disappointing. The décor was noticeably dated, the bath towels were thin and worn, and at one point the toilet overflowed, requiring attention that should never be necessary at a resort of this caliber. The resort grounds also proved to be highly inconvenient. The property is not walkable, forcing guests to rely entirely on golf‑cart shuttle service to move between areas. Wait times ranged anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes, making simple tasks unnecessarily time‑consuming. Additionally, the resort's remote location leaves guests with no access to outside entertainment or dining. You feel completely locked in with no alternatives beyond the resort compound. The birthday dinner at LaFrieda on July 10th was the most troubling experience. Following our server's direction, we ordered items included in the all‑inclusive plan and consumed no alcohol. We were nevertheless charged $91.43, plus an inexplicable $45.47 service charge--half the bill. When we questioned the charges, multiple servers told us they could not assist and directed us to dispute it at the front desk. We filed a dispute with Ulysses the next day, but when we attempted to settle our account on July 12th, the service charge was still present, along with an unexpected $4.50 Letty Foundation fee that we did not authorize. After re‑explaining the situation to Gabriella, we were again told no adjustment could be made. Between the unfulfilled group‑code perks, the poor room conditions, the lack of walkability, the remote and restrictive location, and the inability to resolve clear billing errors, this stay fell far below expectations. What should have been a celebratory vacation became a frustrating and disappointing experience.
