Delicious Dinner Experience

I had the pleasure of dining at the Hacienda restaurant located just in front of the hotel. The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful, with beautiful views of the main street lit up with festive lights. I was served by an attentive staff, including Jose and Daniel, who provided excellent and prompt service. I particularly enjoyed the beef medallions with shrimp that were cooked to perfection and accompanied by a delectable lobster sauce. The shrimp were the highlight of the dish and left me wanting more. I highly recommend this restaurant for a good dinner during your stay.

Fantastic Kids' Activities

The children's amenities at the Fontan Ixtapa were really good! The dedicated staff in the kids' area made every effort to ensure that my child had a fantastic time. The various activities kept them engaged throughout the day, and I was impressed with how much fun my little one had. It was truly a fantastic experience that made our family vacation even more enjoyable.

Comfortable and Spacious Room

I stayed in a spacious room with a beautiful view that was clean and well-maintained. The beds were quite comfortable, making it easy to unwind after a long day at the beach. I appreciated the attention to detail with the towel art that the cleaning staff created. Although my room did not have a fridge or coffee maker, it was equipped with a safe and provided hot water for showers. Overall, the room met my needs perfectly.

Relaxing Beach Experience

One of the best parts of my stay was the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful beach just a short walk from the hotel. The beach was well-kept, and I loved spending my mornings relaxing under the sun and taking a dip in the ocean. It was the perfect spot for swimming, and I enjoyed the peaceful environment despite the occasional hustle of vendors. The beach provided a wonderful backdrop to my vacation, making it a nice experience.

The staff were exceptional and very engaging, but the dining options felt repetitive and sometimes bland. Although the pools were inviting and well-kept, I found the lack of a workout facility disappointing. Overall, it's a great value for money, but there's room for improvement in the dining experience.
