Relaxing getaway
Our stay at the Las Brisas Ixtapa over the week of Christmas was fantastic to say the least. We were checked in by Carlos, who was very courteous, efficient, and eager to answer all our questions. Our favorite meal was in the Portofino Restaurant. Jorge did an amazing job of preparing Cesar salads and Shrimp Flambe at our table side; the food was cooked to perfection and Jorge provided a great show. In the Lobby Bar Rosario always greeted us with a smile and cheerful conversation, and went out of her way to accommodate us. Those three were at the top of our list for kudos, but all Las Brisas employees provided excellent customer service and tended to our every need. We stayed on the 21st floor, which must have been reserved for adults because it was very quiet there ā no kids running up and down the hall. The view from our balcony was spectacular as we could see the entire bay. Sliding louvered doors just inside the glass patio doors could be used to shut out light, which was nice for sleeping in. The king bed was firm, the AC cold, and the shower hot. The facilities were clean and well maintained. We used the āadults onlyā pool and the staff did a good job of turning children away so that the area was quiet and relaxing. There was also a pool boy who frequently skimmed the pool of plant debris. It was nice to be on the Las Brisas beach because there were no vendors hawking their wares as is typical on most other hotel beaches in Mexico. The surf was strong and not very child-friendly, but the water was warm and enjoyable. We have stayed in luxury resorts numerous times all across Mexico, and find the Las Brisas ranking among the best. Maybe the people who have written negative reviews about this resort should stay in a cheap hotel on āhotel rowā, one with poor facilities and service, and then make a comparison; you get what you pay for. Also, food styles vary greatly from region to region in Mexico. If you want consistent flavored cheap food, stay in the US and eat at Taco Bell! We canāt find anything worth complaining about at this resort, and are very much looking forward to staying here again. Good job Las Brisas Ixtapa!

Paradise!
The hotel is in a great location, it has its private beach so it doesn't get croweded, the room was magnificent, we had one with jacuzzi in the terrace and it was wonderful to go back to the room after a day on the beach and relax at the jacuzzi. I don't have kids and I love the fact that there was a section of rooms for adults only. The views from the hotel were amazing. Staff was very friendly. The prices of food at hotel restaurants its a little high, and you don't get anything for free, no free internet, I will think that for the price of the room you will get something but I still like the place.

Great Place to stay
The hotel is located off the main tourist area so it is great if you are looking to get away to enjoy some quiet time. If you need some excitement, the downtown is accessible via walking, taxi or bus. The pools are great, but the Pacific Ocean is not swimmer friendly. The staff is outstanding as well as all of the restaurants onsite.

If you take a short walk downtown and get off the main path, there are outstanding food establishments that allow you to experience the true Mexican food.

R & R Travel
Indulge in R & R
This is the place to go to relax, literally, do nothing and unplug. It is a hotel, not an all-inclusive. Built into the side of a mountain and having its own private beach area, this is the place to just sit in the sun and unwind. It is a full service hotel with room service and pool side/ocean side bar service. It hits a medium price point and is exceptionally well maintained. This is NOT the place to go for adventure. But if you are stressed from the everyday world, this place has the plan for relaxing. It has an adult only pool, private beach front (waiter service at both) and full salon with massage service, pedicures, manicures. There are multiple restaurants w/different cuisine. And the lobby bar can't be beat for watching the sun set over the ocean.

In Hotel
Everything in the hotel is priced the same. Use of the mini-bar or stopping in one of the shops or restaurants - the prices are all the same. No need to worry about using the items in the room if you worry they are over-priced relative to everything else.

Great beach and view, but nothing to do
The first rooms they offered us didn't actually have a view of the ocean because it was blocked by trees. We requested a room change and we got one the following day. However, then our air conditioning didn't work and they were never able to fix it. We spent time on the beach, at Ixtapa Island and zip lining. We all got sick from the water, ice or food. Beautiful weather and sunsets, but not worth it!

Feels like home
We have stayed at Las Brisas many times in the last ten years. We have come to know many of the staff. We feel we are treated extremely well and will continue to return. We love the breakfast buffet and our lemonada with lunch.

Not as good as my previous stays
I've stayed in Las Brisas several times. The hotel is as beautiful as ever, there is nothing like the fabulous beach and grounds in this hotel. The people are as friendly , cheerful and helpful as ever. Although the hotel announced a recent renovation of the rooms, I noticed very little improvement or difference in my last two stays 2009 and 2011. In my last visit, there appears to be very few guest at the hotel. I was really disappointed in the food at the hotel,the breakfast buffet was not only expensive but fair to mediocure. The eggs, fruits, and juice were good the remainder were poor. Since there were a dearth of guest, only the two expensive resturant were open, the quality of the Las BrisasII food was poor, seafood dishes of shrimp and fish fillet reeked of heavy fish odor and I suspect that none of the dishes were cooked at the resturant but are prepared package food that they microwave and garnish with fresh vegetable.We were warned the served plates where extremely hot -which is sign of microwave prepare food. When I walk past the cooking area of the resturant the is no sign or smell of the cooking. For the kind of prices they charge I expect something much better. Finally I find that their charge for drinks were in the order of 10.00 to 11.00USD which is on the high side. However, the room was very clean and the grounds are well kept. The beach is totally private and sand is immaculate and beautiful.
