This was our fifth visit to Dorado Pacifico. The junior suites are large and clean. Maid service is excellent. The front counter staff will go out of their way to see that your visit is perfect. Two for one happy hour in the lobby bar with the nicest waitress to be found anywhere. The hotel has a nice large pool... more

My girlfriend and myself stayed from 24-29 Apr. The pool and beach access was the best part. If you dont tolerate the sun well, then the dorado has cabanas on the beach with umbrellas for free plus the staff serves you drinks at them. The pool has a swim up bar with music! Internet access was a must for me;... more

Dorado is a wonderful place, pool is a little small for my 13 year old, beach is awesome. Waves maybe too big for most people. They had to help two people out during our stay. The odd things I observed were the mad rush at 5:00 A.M. to get a cabana or pool side seat. If you were not there... more

We stayed at the Dorado March 16-23. Considering that is was Easter week and Spring Break for many, I thought the service was outstanding. The Front Desk staff was patient and helpful. Our room wasn't ready at 2pm so we were given free beverage coupons and allowed to use a hospitality room to change. Once we had a burned out... more

We were very happy with the Dorado. The staff were excellent as was the customer service. We requested an ocean view room up a bit higher and our request was met. The hotel is situated right in the centre of the hotel zone and right across the street from the many shops and restaraunts and only 10 minutes by taxi... more

Just returned yesterday from Ixtapa. Stayed at the Dorado Pacifico. Here are the things you need to know before you go! The hotel is perfect for families with young children up to say 14. Be warned-If you want a spot at the pool or a palapa on the beach you must go down and save your chairs by 6:45 am... more

We stayed at the Dorado the 6th - 13th. We had a wonderful time and met some great people. When we first arrived we were put in room 1027. It was looking at the back of the Amara. So, I talked to Ricardo and he got us in 1209 which was AWESOME. It had a great view of the ocean... more

We have been to Ixtapa several times. We have always stayed at a different hotel but this time chose the Dorado. We were very pleased. We had asked for a room with a king size bed and were surprised when they had one. It didn't have the best view but they let us look first and we loved the room... more

We were at the Dorado in June 2007 for one week. We had a great time. The food and drinks were wonderful and plentiful (especially the fresh fish and steak.) We booked a standard ocen view room and when we arrived we asked for an upgrade. At first, they wanted to charge us extra. But, I didn't say anything just... more

We stayed at the Dorado Pacifico From 2/15 till 2/26 2008 and had the best vacation ever. We traveled with our young children, my sister and her young children, and our parents, both in their early 60's. All of us found that the Dorado had something for everyone. The poolside activity coordinators (especially Pancho) always had something for adults, then... more
