Top Arena Beach Hotel Reviews

Barceló Huatulco - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Nos gustó mucho el hotel, y la atención que nos brindaron. La comida del restaurante de doña Rosa y La tortuga es deliciosa. También tuvimos la oportunidad de comer en los restaurantes de comida italiana y de sushi"

Camino Real Zaashila Huatulco

8/10 Good

"Está muy lindo el hotel, me encantó mi habitación y su vista, muy hermoso, solo un detalle solo ofrece 330 ml de agua para 24 horas en la habitación, a mi me pareció insuficiente la verdad, ya que si es caluroso allá, la reservación fue motivo de mi cumpleaños y se resaltó y pues no hubo ningún detalle por parte del hotel. El resto bien. Personas amables y otras no a gusto con la propina dada, que al menos para mí es de acuerdo a la atención recibida."

Dreams Huatulco Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is ok"

Secrets Huatulco Resort & Spa - Adults Only - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"It was a unique experience for my parents, the only bad part us after paying everything the spa is not included"

Agua Azul la Villa

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay at la Villa! Amy was very responsive and helpful and the complimentary breakfast was a lovely way to start each day while sitting and taking in the beauty of the view on the terrace. It is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beaches, sunsets, night sky, and take a dip in the pool, in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood."

Casa Ceiba Huatulco - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Great views, good location in a safe community, great beach 5 blocks away. If you like physical challenges, there is a 243 step stairwell at one end of the beach. Try to complete in 2 minutes, 5 times. A small complaint, our room had no TV and very slow wifi."

Direct Beach Access in Gated Neighborhood

The Ultimate Indulgence

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The chef prepared delicious meals tailored to our tastes and dietary preferences, which made the experience especially relaxing and enjoyable.The staff were exceptional. The pool and grounds were impeccably maintained, and the housekeepers kept the home and our rooms spotless throughout our stay.The pool was a highlight, with stunning ocean views where we were even able to watch whales. The location felt very safe and secure, with quiet streets perfect for walking right from the house.The home is also just a short taxi ride from town, where there are many beautiful beaches and excellent restaurants.Overall, this was an outstanding place to stay, and we would happily return."

Gated Oceanfront Estate | Access to Private Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed here with a group of 10 and had an incredible experience. The house has amazing views, plenty of space for everyone and was perfect for our family. The private beach and pool really added to the peaceful atmosphere and made the trip feel extra special. The beach is quite a venture down - we had no trouble but it would be hard for elderly and people with mobility issues. Our teens especially loved the large media room and enjoyed spending late nights there together. The management company was attentive and responsive throughout our stay. Small suggestion would be adding some mosquito netting for the beds so the windows could be left open at night without getting bitten. Also adding some sort of bug deterrents for Noseums would made sitting out in the evenings a but more enjoyable as we all suffered quite a few bites - even with repellent.We had such a great time and can't wait to return!
