Great location! Lots of locals on the beach, kind of busy at times. The food was okay. The show that is advertised wasn't all that (food was bland). Keep in mind accomodations aren't what we are used to here in the states. I would stay again. Super friendly staff and felt very safe. more

I have been loyal to this hotel for the last 10+ years, despite some problems in previous stays but this time I noticed several areas of concern and disappointment. The room are not as nitid as they used to be. Showers are not well maintained, rusted in some areas and leak under the shower doors (you have to keep on... more

Our family of 9 stayed at the Hotel Playa Mazatlan over Christmas 2007 and found the hotel to be excellent value. Great location, with lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Beautiful beach. Hotel very clean. Would definitely stay here again. more

Location, Location, Location is what the Playa Mazatlan represented to us. Never having been to Mazatlan before, we did not realize the Hotel was in the heart of the Golden Zone. Actually, 40 years ago when the Playa Mazatlan opened was when the Golden Zone began. We would not take the all- inclusive option again as there is only one... more

There were 7 in our family that went on this 1st time trip to Mazatlan. The hotel was nice enough and like I said friendly people and the beach at the hotel was cleaned every morning by the same nice young fellow. You had to go early in the a.m. to get a spot with a cabana or you were... more

We spent 2 weeks at the Playa Mazatlan. The hotel's location was very good. We had a good room on the second floor, with ocean view and huge balcony, however, we were very close to the restaurant and at apporx 6 a.m. each morning we were woken to scraping chairs and banging . The beach was lovely and we walked... more
