Great Hotel
The Dorado in Ixtapa is a wondeful hotel. I booked it through Apple Vacations and was completely satisfied with the entire stay. The staff was ...
Won't Stay Again
The hotel is funky... not well maintained. Beds are hard, sheets are scratchy. Air conditioning didn't cool as much as I'd have liked. The elevators didn't work well. They would frequently stop on a floor not marked for stopping & one time it stopped at every floor. The pool & hotel need an overhaul or at least some maintaining - paint etc. Service by staff is fairly good. Surprisingly the food there was pretty good - cost too much though. The location is good, the beach is nice, people are friendly.
Won't Stay Again
This was our second time back within a 6 mo. period, this time it was my 8yr old Daughters birthday and I must say it was her favorite so far. The hotel treated her like a Queen!!! They sent her fresh fruit to the room in the Morning, steansiled "Happy Birthday" on her bed in 6in letters, anounced it to every one at the pool and waited for us to go up to our room so they could bring her a Birthday cake and sing Happy Birthday to her. She was in Heaven the entier stay, and like our stay in Nov. of 07, everyone was awsome!!!! My family and I could'nt say enough good things about the Dorado Pacifico so why try. I did notice that about a third of the rooms were being renovated and as far as not getting a spot at the pool, Big Deal, drop your stuff on the pool wall and go for it, enjoy everything they have to offer, the time goes by VERY slow. Don't forget to see the aligators swimming around the marina just down the street either. FYI: your cell phone only works if YOU want it to, thats the best part. So, will we return? give us a few mos. then YES, we'll be back without a doubt.
Location Location Location
We especially liked the central location to the restaurants and shopping in Ixtapa. The pool area is also very good. During the day they always had some activities such as water aerobics, water volleyball, etc. On most days the waves on the beach were to strong to swim in the ocean.The room was clean but could use an upgrade. Especially the shower curtain. It was a bit funky.The beds were hard as a rock.We never had a bad meal or snack and the staff was always very quick and helpful.If I stay there again I would try a suite. Might offer a bit more room and a refrigerator.
Loved everything about our stay. Yes there are people on the beach trying to sell you stuff and others are at the pool getting a chair with an unbrella befor you, but so what. The people of the Dorrado were GREAT. The hotel is located across the street from everything. No need for a rental car. We were there in November and going back in May and cant wait!!! They have baby turtles that the kids get to let go at certain times of the month plus lots of other kid related activitys, a must stay at the Dorrado.
Loved the hotel. Very clean and comfortable. The beach is very clean and great for walks. They have music playing in the bar till 11pm which made it difficult to sleep as the hotel is set up like an atrium, so the music echoed.
Great location in the middle of everything. Pool and water slides are great. They need a Hot Tub. Beach is awesome, but too many people bugging you about Fishing Charters.
