Two out of four days without internet in the room then you charged me an extra 400mx. Room key did not work properly. Changed the cards out a couple times. Steak quality poor at el faro. I paid $388cdn a night for this resort and expected a lot more. Excellent service and view.

Way too many stairs!! Bad knees or bad legs? Do not go here! Anywhere you want to go on the property requires climbing or descending stairs. There are NO elevators! Entryways are all outside. The employees were all nice 👍, I enjoyed the fresh food, weather was perfect, bathrooms were always clean. Just too many stairs for old knees.

Property overall nice but lacks safety feature such as anti slip strips for stairs. More hand rails needed. Service was very good and the restaurants were wonderful.

The resort is beautiful and the service provided by the staff is wonderful. The staff throughout the property wants to help guests and enjoy being of service. The resturants offer a wide selection and is good. The El Farro overlooks the bay and is beautiful at night. The resort is built in the hills and walking could be a challenge for some. We walked and it was good exercise. The resort offers nice vans available to take guests to their building. Still some stairs to rooms. There are timeshare invites and after several declines they did not pursue. The rep was very courteous. The weather was a consistant mid eighties and sunny. Wonderful vacation and will go back.

The property was beautiful and well maintained. We had a king suite that was very clean and well maintained throughout our stay. A couple of negatives about the room - We could not get hot water in the shower on any day. The bed is very firm/hard and the pillows were mushy due to chip foam filling. The lock on the patio door kept jamming and took some fiddling to open and close however we did not use the patio that much. We stayed in the spa area which was very quiet and away from music and the usual daytime activities. The pool there was wonderful and again mostly quiet. The service for food and drinks at any of the pools was excellent. We ate at several restaurants and the food and selection was very good. The beach was very nice and even though it was quite a distance from the area where we stayed the shuttle service arrived quickly to our door every time we left the room. We never had to wait. The staff on the property were very friendly and helpful in spite of the language barrier on many occasions. The property is very large and built in and around very steep hills. We enjoyed the walking but if someone had mobility issues or struggled with walking up hill in the heat then they would need to consider another property. Over all we enjoyed our stay and would go back.

This property is unique in that it embraces true Mexican culture from the friendly staff, always willing to cater to your needs, villas are exceptional, clean & comfortable. Food is of average to good quality. Beach front palapas offer a great beach experience. This property would benefit by having the two on-site restaurants open each evening. Currently they are not. There are good restaurants nearby & market facilities are good in nearby Zihutanjeo & Ixtapa. Will certainly visit this place again. It is a timeshare property but guests are not hasselled.

Active, fun resort
Have stayed here many times trading timeshare, wish internet booking made some of the nicer rooms available. That being said, the room was clean and comfortable with that outstanding view! Note: the only rooms with the sea view are the "Junior Club" rooms. Others have golf course views. This a busy, almost frenetic, resort with lots to do. Great for kids. And you can find quiet spots. All inclusive, and the food is really pretty good with a lot of variety. Overall, a fun place to go.

2 week stay inPacificia
The resort is a beautiful place and the weather is amazing, The servers on the beach are amazing, fast and efficient, beach food is 👍. The rooms were very clean and done up on time. Some issues that we had was the cable tv, the Gondola is out of service for major repairs. Which I totally understand, but maybe it should of been done in low season. The La carts are amazing but please speed up the service and not have a 3 hour meal. 1 to 1 1/2 hours would be plenty.

Perfect vacation for January
Pacifica Resort is actually a time share, but it is easy to avoid listening to sales pitch. Many buildings on the beautiful grounds, which are all different levels of comfort. Excellent food at the 4or 5 restaurants on the property. The vans are prompt and will drive you up and down the hill if you do not care to hike between the beach, pools, restaurants, or front gate. Napoleon is great at helping to navigate reservations, tours, and anything you need. This is not recommended for handicapped as everything is up and down a big hill, but people were great and lots of activities besides sitting on the beach under a shade and being served.

Quick getaway on the beach!
My best friend and I wanted a quick, warm getaway from colder weather. This resort was great - the staff upgraded us so we could be closer to the beach! We ate at el faro almost every evening and the service was amazing! The only critique I have is to perhaps make the reservation of the umbrellas a little easier and more direct sun spots near the pool or beach - mostly every single one of them was shaded? Will be back and will recommend to others!

Great Vacation
The Pacifica Resort Ixtapa is located above the beach at the eastern end of Ixtapa. This provides for expansive views of the beaches and the hotels of Ixtapa. The views are pretty spectacular! The Resort itself is lovely. Clean and comfortable rooms. All the employees of the resort are friendly, helpful and accommodating. The food at all of the restaurants is well prepared and delicious. The Resort is spread out over a large amount of hillside, there are many steps and roads connecting resort buildings, these buildings and the beach are also accessible by air conditioned transport van and gondola. The multiple pools (7) are spread out and at any given point of the day may be your own private pool! I would definitely return to this resort!

Beautiful Property
This is our second time to Ixtapa and second time to stay at the Pacifica Resort. The downside of the property is that it's situated in the hills, so there is a fair amount of walking, however the courtesy transportation is excellent. They are always available to pick you up and take you to and from your room. This property is beautiful and the staff are incredible. Napoleon is everywhere ensuring that everyone's stay is fantastic. I don't think he sleeps!

Great hotel on the beach with super service
We were surprised by our room because the golf suites photo was a little different from actua but it was clean and quiet. The service from management to maintenance was second to none. Good service is what sets the Pacifica apart. The food at the tupilane and moon bar at the beach was very good. The grills and bbqs were staffed by pros. Our bartenders, waiters and servers all were helpful and kind. My wife and I have reasonable expectations and they were exceeded. We had a couple dinners that did not come up to the standard that was set by every other dinner. If you are concerned about food quality, hygiene and service then the Pacifica is a great choice. Yes 5 stars is deserved based on our experience.

Napoleon is simply the best concierge we ever had the privilege of meeting in our 19 trips to Mexico. Pacifica Ixtapa Resort is an amazing place and the crew that takes care of you is even better. They all go above and beyond to make you feel like royalty. Thankyou everyone that made this trip the most memorable one yet and can't wait to see you all again. Muchas Gracias!!!

Great Vacation!!
We stayed near the Spa in a fabulous room with a view of the Pool, golf course, and very nicely manicured grounds. We were all inclusive and enjoyed 4 a la carte restaurants. The restaurant El Faro was amazing with a great menu and a breath taking view of the entire Ixtapa beach. The resort's concierge, Napoleon, was very professional and was available to assist us with all our needs or services. Transportation around the resort was easy with vans running all around the site.

Liked: Cleanliness
Good: Fairly priced. Excellent service by waiters, cleaning staff. Bad: Although it resembles a senior retirement community, the extremely steep roads and stairs require you to be a mountain climber. Don't expect the elevator to be working. The imperious office staff will probably not speak English and will remind Americans of a DMV. As in Cancun, Los Vegas, and other vacation paradises around the world, beware of bait and switch on site hard-sell realtors. This is a wonderful resort with plenty of activities for young well-to-do Mexican families. I'm happy for them!
