Cons: need better reading lights and comfortable chairs or chaises on balcony Pool was green Breakfast and coffee not very available No elevator

Pros: The location in Los Ayala is great. The rooms are big, and well equipped, with great views of the Pacific Ocean.

Cons: We were rather annoyed about the fact that the price on Booking.com (2,041MXN, including the "genius" discount!) was significantly higher than the posted standard rate at the hotel counter (1,775MXN)!!

Pros: Location and the pool

Cons: The beds

Pros: Very clean. Right on the beach. Pool on the roof and one down by the beach.

Cons: No restaurant, but there are several nearby.

Pros: There was 5 of us that stayed in the big bu bungalow.. we all agreed that our stay was perfect in every way!!!

Pros: The service

Cons: Air conditioner,doors seal

Pros: The rooms were basic but comfortable with a view of the ocean from our balcony. The staff was attentive, kind and the breakfast full of fruit, yogurt, eggs of the day and sweet or savory bread. very relaxing!

Cons: Loved it all. Not fancy but perfect for a week or so.

Pros: Service was great and clean. Staff were very nice!

Pros: The free breakfast part

Cons: The whole stay here was a nightmare bad place not worth even looking

Pros: The breakfast was fair. Staff friendly.

Cons: Menu not varied enough at breakfast. Our unit had a kitchen, but the cooking materials were inadequate. i.e. pots, pans and utensils.

Pros: Very cozy, quite and comfortable. Everyone very friendly.

Pros: Location

Cons: The place requires lots of maintenance and upgrades, the showers did not have head, bath towels were pretty old, water leaks through the windows, swimming pool needed maintenance too. Hotel parking faraway from hotel, few blocks. Location is perfect, and keeping the rooms and facilities up, this would be a great place .

Pros: I like the location just steps from the beach and the pool was great only one thing I wish the pool will stay open a little later that’s all

Cons: Pool hours I spect I lease close at 900 pm

Pros: Very friendly staff. Super clean hotel.

Pros: I liked the openness of the property and the fact that our room faced the ocean.

Pros: I have stayed there 4 or 5 times in the past, the check out would not refund the second rooms cash security deposit, I was told they needed to hand the key in withing 25 minutes otherwise the deposit would not be returned, the key was handed in within that time (although after the 12.15 check out) the room was vacated but it was only the key they needed, did not stop them checking the room. I asked for the managers email - the on duty manager said complaints must be handled by him only, he needs some customer relations training, there were some very nice staff at check in, I have been living in Mexico never had that treatment

Cons: not getting security cash deposit back although the second room was vacated in time, but the key to the second room was handed in little late , The room itself had been vacated and they were told they could go in inspect and clean- but just because key was late what i did not like I entered in the like box in error - see above

Pros: The location is very close to the beach.

Cons: The overall cleanliness of the room and bathroom was very poor; we had to ask staff to clean the kitchen amenities and bathroom. The bed and pillows were too uncomfortable to get a good night’s rest.

Pros: Room was clean and good size.

Cons: Only one key per room. The air was not working properly.

Pros: THe nightly entertainment was OUTSTANDING and equal to a Club Med. The buffet food needed more healthy choices and desserts that werent first class. THe reservation restaurant was excellent and breakfasts were abundant. Loved the adults only pool but no elevator excluded many seniors! We walked up 4 flights 3-4x day! Please leave pool open to 5pm!!

Cons: Poor quality of food on buffet line our first night there but it generally improved as the week progressed. Closing of pool too early.

Pros: elevator in my building

Pros: I really enjoyed staying here at the hotel Decameron los Cocos the room I stayed in was really clean and family friendly.The food was delicious. I had a great time I will definitely be returning.

Pros: Hotel was always very clean at all times. We enjoy always the shows at nights for the kids. Staff was very pleasant and rooms very clean.

Cons: The beach area was always overcrowded with no space to sit, always was taken. Also the reservations for dinners where always taken. Reservations was at 9 am, and when got there staff was done with reservations at 6 am, was not able to reserve none of the days. The food at the dinner buffet can improve more, need a little more variety.

Pros: I liked that they had more than one place to eat. Also that they had more than one pool !

Cons: It was a little pricey for children.

Pros: All the staff helped as much as they could and we’re always nice.

Cons: The bathroom smelt like pee VERY VERY STRONG!!! There was little Nate in the bathroom and in the room. I don’t do good with bugs. Or a nasty bathroom.

Pros: Overall the staff on the restaurants, and at the bars, even the cleaning people were so helpful and so friendly. Also the food was good and clean.

Cons: I think our experience could had been better if it wasn't because when we arrived the front desk girls were so rude. Every question we had they didn't know the answer to. We waited about 30-45mins to check in as the girls kept helping other people that were already cheked in. Because of the long wait we didn't got to eat dinner at the hotel. Another thing was that we didn't get to eat dinner at one of the restaurants because you have to make reservations and by the time you went they were always booked.

Pros: I love the hotel the people were very nice and always willing to help you..

Cons: the pool water was very cold

Pros: The place it’s very clean, the staff it’s very nice and helped me with everything they could, the pool was big enough, they had very comfortable beds.

Cons: The rooms are very small, I think they could be bigger.

Pros: Great service, very clean and location was great. So close to the beach and almost private being it was at the edge near a big rock hill.

Cons: Not much to dislike

Pros: Breakfast was good. Location also good.

Cons: There was construction going on as they are adding suites on top floor. During the day all day constant drilling and noise that when on the pool deck was very disconcerting. Never did any of the staff ask or inquire how we felt about it.

Pros: I especially liked being ocean front and a great beach for swimming.

Pros: There are no phones in the room. They left a menu for their restaurant, but how would you order? You would have to go down to the restaurant to place an order and to get someone to help you with your baggage. The restaurant was fair. The view from the balcony was awesome. To be fair, the hotel was clean.

Cons: No phone or form of being able to communicate with the staff.

Pros: The room, pool, restaurant, staff, everything was wonderful. Wifi was best on the balcony, & had to key in password quite a few times, but once connected, it was good. The price went up for next year, though, so fairly expensive. But we are very glad we stayed there, my husband & I.

Cons: It’s quite expensive, but it’s A beautiful place!

Pros: The location

Cons: I didnt like the location but besides that everything was very good

Pros: Beautiful, boutique hotel. Very nice grounds and pool. Our room was also very nice.

Cons: Very little hot water. The staff let a group of kids around the pool until after 10:30 PM. They were very noisy and it was hard to sleep because of the noise.

Pros: Great place to stay with your Family! Small Hotel with all necessary installations; pool had the perfect size for our kids. Rooms are new, arquitecture is pleasuring. The Restaurant is remarkable: I didn't expect this Level of Profesionality, Service and Quality Food in a small Hotel and remote Location!

Cons: No direct Access to the beach but three blocks away and in Walking distance; some Restaurants for dinner at the same distance. Beach not suitable for children and swimming in general due to strong water current.

Pros: Staff even with language barrier

Pros: Everything

Cons: Everything was ok

Pros: The sound of the ocean waves from our terrace. Close to shopping and restaurants.

Cons: Did not have a restaurant for dinner.

Cons: Food

Pros: The area

Cons: Food was not really worth the exclusive price

Pros: We loved just about everything! Great location, great facility; very, very clean. Restaurants and shopping were close by and we always felt safe walking around town after dark. The beach is lovely and only a few steps away.

Cons: It would have been great to have coffee before 8am. Either in the rooms or in the lobby. The restaurant does not start serving until 8am.

Pros: Everything is Good and Nice

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Is in front of the sea

Cons: Food was poor lobby personal was rude I was requested bottom floor and they don't provide anyway we don't comeback to this place

Pros: All of the staff were friendly and helpful. In the morning staff were washing all of the beach chairs.

Cons: Coffee was too weak for my taste.

Pros: Meals were good and the staff at the restaurant was very polite and attentive. The location was excellent-right on the beach and near the centro area. Hotel costs were very reasonable.

Cons: Beds were hard. Very loud music in the bar, even drowned out the TV in our room. Fortunately, it didn't seem to last much longer than 10 pm or so.

Pros: Location drinks, entertainment

Cons: FOOD. it was terrible. They should do much better

Pros: On beach. Front desk staff on Jan 1 evening excellent.

Cons: The bed extremely hard. The hotel took a photocopy of my passport and credit card. This has not happened anywhere else in Mexico. It is not a 4 Star Hotel. Needs cleaning and renovation.

Pros: Excellent location, central to amenities of Guayabitos. Staff, particularly Jessica, really did try to help. All staff were wonderfully friendly and were trying very hard to please.

Cons: The biggest disappointment was the food. Breakfast was fine although they only have one cook at the grill and so the line up for eggs/omelets was always quite long. Lunch and dinner were extremely disappointing, some nights the only thing appealing was lettuce (there was not any salad dressing), pineapple and ice cream. I'm not a fussy eater and have travelled quite a bit; however, for an "all inclusive" the food was dismal. In the end we simply went out and ate - there are many terrific restaurants in the lovely little town of Guayabitos.

Pros: Location

Cons: Worn

Pros: the location , location location location

Pros: Being right on the ocean! The pool is really lovely. Very private surrounded by a beautiful tropical garden.

Pros: We loved being right on the ocean. The staff are super friendly & very accommodating. The pool area is lovely it’s like an oasis. The room is equipped with all the essentials & more. There’s a little store just across the road for all your needs. Will definitely stay at Paraiso Del Pescador again. Thanks Chris & Staff!

Cons: I can’t think of anything I didn’t like. It’s México!

Pros: The location was perfection. 3rd night we upgraded to a sea view, which the hotel actually had beach access. For the price we could not have been happier. Very small town atmosphere, very Mexican. We were very comfortable in the area, felt safe, etc. Lots of sidewalk foods (kiosks) restaurants etc. ALL the food was excellent. Totally loved the whole experience. First time to Mexico, would definitely go back.

Cons: We appreciate a fridge in all rooms we stay in. Like to have cold beer on hand and cold water is a must for us as well.

Pros: Close to the ocean

Cons: I didn’t like having my pain medication stolen out of my bag by the cleaning lady. Trazodon. When confronted by staff she denied it of course. My wife and I both checked all the bags and it was not there. And the suite they showed me online was not what I got. The room was not even close to what we were led to believe on the web. We would never go back or recommend this property to anyone

Pros: I liked the fact that the hotel had spacious parking a good size pool and access to the beach.

Cons: They did not have blankets in the rooms

Pros: In this day and age, good wifi is just the main issue. Many of us use our computers in our rooms and stream. This was not possible. The only frustration with this great stay.

Pros: 5 night stay. We had a simple double room although there are kitchen units available too. Rooms were large, clean and had plenty of shelves and a mirror in both bedroom area and bathroom. Nice big shower with hot water. Easy access to beach with chairs,loungers and umbrellas available for use. With tables and chairs on patio next to beach and loungers at pool we always had a spot to relaxin the sun or the shade.

Pros: Location and people

Cons: Beds and pillows

Pros: Staff is awesome and other guests very helpful. The grounds around hotel were impeccable. Looking forward to the next visit. Food around Guayabitos was exceptional and we'll priced.

Cons: No one at the front desk could speak fluent English over each 24 hour period No Restaurant No Bar Not on the Beach Poor Security, any one could walk in off the street to public areas without being asked anything.

Cons: There is not a restaurant inside the hotel

Pros: The hotel was clean, centrally located and had a nice pool area.

Pros: Location was great. On the main street and out the back door and down an alley to the beach. Rooms are new and clean.

Cons: No elevator yet. Pool is unheated but swimmable.

Pros: Staff is good.

Cons: No towels available when wanted.

Pros: The hotel was new and clean and being only a block from the beach made it very handy to carry whatever you needed to sit and relax.

Cons: Very noisy place to stay whether you are at the front or side of the building where you are overlooking a little street that has a few little shops and a walk way to the beach where people congregate day and night to talk, play music and very early morning vendors selling food. This hotel is still being completed and was always in a state of construction of some sort which did was not always have safety as a priority. The five flights of stairs at present do not have an elavator or handrails which makes for difficult trips up and down the stairs for lots of the guests. The suites were uncomfortably furnished and made for a very unpleasant 1-2 month stay. The storage in the bathroom, bedroom area (no dresses for clothes - no bedside table lights) and kitchen were most definitely lacking.

Pros: The 2 site managers were excellent to us and the daily upkeep of the facility.

Cons: For us and the site managers the facility needs to have increased guest supplies and updates to the facility to facilitate normal everyday required use. Overpriced in comparison to other properties close by that offered superior facilities.

Pros: no breakfast offer

Cons: clean the beach area

Pros: I liked everything, location, big space in rooms, two bathrooms, kitchen equipment, secure, polite staff, etc

Pros: Very quiet!

Cons: The beds!

Pros: The friendliness of staff there. The pool. Friendly neighbors.

Cons: The Sky Satellite sucked! No signal. The frying pan was too small.

Pros: nice clean close to the beach

Pros: Cozy accommodation. Not crowded

Cons: It was located further from the beach than expected. It was a 15-20 minute walk. It’s close to the main highway so could be noisy at times.

Pros: Pool was ok but small

Cons: No a.c remote so couldnt control it. Front door didnt seal at all,looked like it was open all the time. Shower head was cheap,had to take off the shower head and bathe in a stream. Beds are hard as a rock. Definitely wont be back to this one! Hotel Jaqueline is much better but they were booked up, this was the only one left.

Pros: Old

Cons: Service

Pros: Friendly staff with and a good location.

Cons: There was no hot water. The room was musty. Would have preferred a balcony.

Pros: Good value

Cons: Noisy - too many over indulged children.

Pros: It was close to the beach at a walking distance

Cons: They limit the number of pool towels per room. I paid for a junior suite for 5 people and only gave us 4. Also they only left a thin toilet paper roll for 5 adults per room. there were no face towels, no hair dryer, no microwave oven, no shampoo nor conditioner, no room bottle water

Pros: Everything is fine, except WF.

Cons: No WF in the room.

Pros: There was nothing to like about this property. Very disappointed. Unclean, very unkept, bathroom very dirty. The garbage had not been emptied from previous guests.

Cons: The entire hotel could have been better. There were workmen working at the pool area, the outdoor space was dirty as well as the indoor space. We certainly would never recommend this property. In US or Canada it would never receive an operating license.

Pros: Local hotel. Beds were comfy, people were very nice. It’s in the quiet Riviera Nayarit end of Bucerias!

Cons: Nothing else around it. Best to travel with friends and family and rent a Beachfront Bungalow!!

Pros: Good value, great location

Cons: Could use a lot of maintenance, not unexpected at this point though

Pros: Location and very clean

Cons: Bathroom small

Pros: I only like the location and pool.

Cons: I did not like all the mosquitos bites.. The bedding was really dirty.. When we told the young she blame us and charge us 100 pesos for the damage she was really rude.. We dont care of the money but its there fault not ours.. This young lady really needs some maners.. She will scream an say bad words and laugh and make jokes of english speaking customers.

Cons: nothing

Pros: TV.

Cons: lot noises, people smoke right outside you door, not parking, not good internet, smells like humid, air conditioning not access for maker lower, different price online the rent.

Cons: The room was very noisy (on the street) and it had nothing in it, only a bed. No chair, no glasses, nothing else.

Pros: Liked the area, busy but interesting.

Cons: The proximity to night club across the street very noisey but only Friday and Saturday night.

Pros: Hotel was clean, fairly quiet, centrally located. Ceasar was very accommodating and friendly.
