Great location but disappointed with the property quality and the “all inclusive” status. Maybe I misunderstood what all inclusive means but in previous experiences, we have access to all restaurants with reservations. We were given a voucher for 2 nights of reservations at the same restaurant that the buffet is located in. We only had access to the buffet which made us both quite sick on day two. We stopped eating at the resort entirely besides pastries and fruit we could peel for breakfast. We were only allowed two bottles of water per day that were put in our room or else we had to pay. I tried to order a corona and was told that was not included in our “all inclusive” package. Mixed drinks from the bar came from the soda gun and we could only have the two types of beer on tap. When accessing the snack bar we would get mixed information from different staff, some days we could have guacamole and salsa and on other days the staff said it was part of the menu only not for “all inclusive”. The pool loungers had visible dirt lines indicating they were never cleaned. The resort advertises three pool areas but it’s essentially one. The adult only pool is the size of a hot tub and was quite dirty. There was mold in the grout. The pool was closed for 3 days of our stay for maintenance. I appreciate that the resort takes time to maintain the pool but notice of this service before our trip would have been nice. Walls are thin in rooms with large gaps around the doors.

I wanted to like this place. All the all inclusive food was only buffet food. There were flies there. We did have 2 meals at a sit down restaurant but it was the same limited menu both times. Cleaning staff was attentive but the waiters were not. We got sick with vomiting and diarrhea for 2 days. We did discover that they have a sister property across the street (Casa Susana )that has a tiny pool but with shade. We didn’t go back to the beach as it was peaceful. We came on a packaged trip that included airfare. Read all reviews before deciding.

Amazing location, right downtown very close to everything. A few things to note during our 9 day stay at Playa Los Arcos that differed from other all inclusive resorts we have stayed at: - there is only one restaurant buffet style to eat at here, the food was good and plenty of options, but we did end up eating out a few nights for variation. The other two restaurants on the property are not apart of the all inclusive- something that was not specified until we got here. - the maid service is fairly poor- asked for more shampoo/toilet paper/towels and water bottles and they never came, to make up our room we had to ask (unlike other all inclusive we have stayed at) -when we asked the lobby for more water bottles we were told that the two in our room upon arrival were complementary one time only - room service is extra charge, unlike other all inclusive resorts we have stayed at it was included hence the “all inclusive” - there are no drinks (alcoholic or non alcoholic) in the fridge - servers at the restaurant (minus one) was poor, felt ignored every meal even with the all inclusive bracelets on. Took 30 minutes to get a drink. Since the all inclusive restaurant is also a restaurant for the public they paid more attention to those customers not from the resort. - drinks were very good- Alexander and Aaron are the best bartenders there! -beach vendors bother you every 30 seconds We came here for the older, cultural vibe and we got it!

The property is not a resort this was a hotel that has the option of including meals and drinks food was good as well as the service but over all i would have not stayed at this hotel since the room i chose when checking out was nothing to what the pictures advertise i did have a veiw of the beach if I stood up but if i wanted to lay down on my balcony i had no privacy because the tenant on the top floor had no wall to give you privacy, also no shade to enjoy balcony the area is open so all the noise from the street is heard very early in the morning before 7am. The hotel was also being remodeled in some of the rooms so when at the pool you hear all the banging going on from the room they are fixing also since this is a hotel and not resort like they promote the pool is in the middle and can get very crowded during the busy time of year luckily i was checking out as more people arrived

This place is in a great location if looking to stay in the Zona Romatica! Room was a little small, but clean. Service was great and food was good (request Marcel in the restaurant-very friendly and your drink will never be empty)! Make note that this is a VERY family oriented property and kids will be everywhere. Pool seating is limited, and usually taken by families. But there are a lot of seating, and waiters, on the beach. Would stay here again!

We really liked the service. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful specially Eliseo, Rogelio and two other staff members who unfortunately didn’t get their names. They did everything possible to ensure we had a pleasant vacation and we are very thankful for that. The only thing we didn’t like and the reason we don’t gave it five stars was the superior single room where we stayed in, which was clean but needs some renovation, like installing soundproof doors and windows because the hotel is located in a very busy area where a lot of noise could be heard from very early in the morning.

We checked in on a Wednesday afternoon and as soon as we arrived I was surprised to see how packed the swimming pool was for the time and day it was, only to later on the trip to find out the pool was also up for a daily rental to others in the area and not just for hotel guest. Maybe if that had not been the case we would have been able to use it more than once during our 5 night stay. One night we also tried using the pool after the towel stand was closed for the evening and were told we could use the towels from our rooms but if they were damaged or stained we’d be charged, which makes sense except the towels in our rooms were already loosing thread and ripped along the border so that was a bit silly to bring up. We paid for the all inclusive option but were met with food running out multiple times at dinner way before the cut off time. Service was mostly nice after we tipped
