Hotel Villas Punta Blanca

Excellent staff courteous and welcoming nice breakfast beautiful setting facilities well looked after.. this is an older hotel that was once very elegant and now rarely used.. one highlight were the strob lights under the bed that cast wild Color’s on the walls , no it’s not what was the results of!

This place is quiet, charming, slightly funky, right on a long beach. Seems to attract mainly Mexican visitors, there were very few non-Mexicans during our stay and they were of the non-ugly tourist type, which was more than fine with us! The staff were sweet, helpful, and always smiling. It helps to be able to speak some Spanish — English is in short supply here (again, no es una problema, as far as we're concerned)! We had dinner at the place next door, which was fun. Breakfast at Villas Punta Blanca was uber-Mexican and delicious. The juices (think quasi-smoothie) were large and absolutely delicious. Be aware that when it comes to food, the portions are LARGE! If you're looking for a place that's resort-modern, Euro-pristine, near some man-made action, move on to Ixtapa. But if you're into some tranquility, if you're looking for a place that reminds you in multiple, charming ways, that you're in Mexico, a place with nice pools and hot tub, lovely chaise lounges and palapas right on an endless beach, we highly recommend Villas Punta Blanca.

They didn't serve dinner on Monday night — thus our one-minute walk on the beach to the place next door that night.

The beach location is excellent, the pool area is very nice. There is a lot of outdoor furniture to enjoy the beach. When we visited we almost had the place to ourselves, so it was very relaxing. It's a great place.to.disconnect and unwind or for a romantic escape.

The place needs some love. The hotel itself is nice but it seems to get by on the bare minimum maintenance, some light fixtures don't work, it all feels a bit run down. The staff is friendly and tries their best but it's clearly understaffed and given little resources. It's still enjoyable as long as you don't expect resort treatment and focus on the location and value.
