I have worked in the tourism industry for years—running DMC in the Netherlands, and Mexico—and I have rarely encountered a property as poorly managed as Rancho Puerto Escondito. This is not a hotel; it is a scam operating under the guise of hospitality. 1. Blatant Misrepresentation (The Kitchen Bait-and-Switch): We booked here specifically for the "shared kitchen" to feed our daughters (ages 4 and 9). Upon arrival, we were told the kitchen is off-limits from 5:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. This critical restriction is hidden from the Hotels.com description. When I raised this, the receptionist’s solution was for us to "prepare breakfast the night before." 2. Dangerous Room Conditions & Neglect: The Heat & Safety: The rooms are heat traps. The ventilator is useless. We were forced to sleep with our door open until 2:00 a.m. just to get air, sacrificing all privacy and safety for our children. The Noise: Unbearable music blasts through the walls from 9:00 p.m. until 2:00 a.m. Our children were crying from the noise and exhaustion. Maintenance: The room was old and filthy. We had to beg for basic necessities like soap and toilet paper. 3. Hostile Staff & Financial Pettiness: The receptionist (Colombian) and the administrator are incredibly unprofessional. When their NFC payment system failed, I had to waste my vacation time at a currency exchange.Despite the ordeal they put us through, they refused to waive a mere 90 pesos ($5 USD) of the balance.

Nunca hago reviews y menos de malas condiciones, pero realmente no recomiendo y no me quedaría ahí otra vez. En la noche no ahí agua en el baño, regadera y sink. Cuando llego en la mañana justo me estaba bañando y se fue otra vez. Ahí estuve con jabón asta que regresó. Dan un rollito de papel higiénico de los sensillos. Las toallas muy chicas y viejitas.

Está hermoso, tranquilo con la playa a 5 minutos caminando y a 10 encuentras un Oxxo y donde retirar. Ni qué hablar de la hospitalidad de la pareja de señores que se encargan del hotel 10/10.

Hotel tradicional

Buen lugar. Buena ubicación para los fines que se tenían, a un par de calles de la bahía principal. Rodeado de opciones para comer y un mercadito para comprar recuerdos. Las habitaciones son básicas que es lo común en la zona. Es más cómodo que el promedio en la región. La amabilidad de sus propietarios es excelente.
