Torres Mazatlan

Staying at Torres Mazatlan was an absolute delight! The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the beach, making it super convenient for enjoying the sea and sun. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with excellent bedding that made for a great night's sleep. The pool area is fantastic—clean, well-maintained, and perfect for relaxing in the warm Mexican sunshine. Access to the private beach is a major plus, adding real value to the experience. Staff are friendly and helpful throughout the stay, enhancing the overall comfort. Daily amenities like breakfast and refreshments were top-notch. The only small suggestion: the towel system by the pool feels outdated and could use an upgrade. But honestly, this is a minor detail compared to how amazing the rest of the stay was. Highly recommend this property—it’s a true gem with excellent value.

City Express Plus by Marriott Mazatlan

This time we decided to try a different area of Mazatlán instead of our usual spot in Zona Dorada, and we were pleasantly surprised. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and super convenient—just a short walk to the yacht departure point. When we returned, we noticed a brand-new bar/nightclub right across the street called Sala de Despecho, which turned out to be a perfect spot for some fun just steps from the hotel. The location, vibe, and overall experience made this stay a standout. Highly recommend for travelers looking for a relaxed yet lively atmosphere with easy access to local nightlife.

Casa Lucila Mazatlán Curamoria Collection

Absolutely recommend this gem of a hotel! Located just steps from the scenic malecón, it's perfect for soaking in the coastal vibe. The property itself is beautifully designed with an artistic flair, and the views from the rooms are breathtaking—especially at sunrise. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making our stay truly memorable. It’s a hidden treasure with an unbeatable combination of charm, comfort, and value. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Zafiro Beach Boutique Resort

Staying at Zafiro Beach Boutique Resort was a delightful experience overall. The room was spotlessly clean, and the housekeeping staff went above and beyond with their warm and attentive service—especially the housekeeper, who made us feel truly welcome. It’s an excellent choice for families seeking comfort and convenience. That said, the pool area could use some attention: missing tiles, broken grates, and a few missing water outlets were noticeable. While these issues didn’t ruin the stay, they’re worth addressing to maintain the resort’s high standard. Despite that, the beachfront location is stunning, the atmosphere relaxed, and the staff consistently friendly. Would definitely recommend and consider returning.
