We had a great stay at San Carlos Plaza. Its location offers a quiet area amid the stunning mountains and a beautiful bay at the Sea of Cortes. The property is well kept, it has plenty of parking space and the staff is very attentive. The room was clean, spacious and beds were comfortable. We didn’t use the cafeteria but had dinner at Los Arbolitos, which offered plenty of choices, generous portions and great service, in front of the beach. All in all, our 2-night stay was a very enjoyable!
