Property is a bit dated. No amenities in room. The pool bar is separate from the Hotel? No room charges. Some things are cash only? Good place for fishermen. Very quiet.

Great location to shopping, restaurants and the beautiful beach. Of course, the Sea water was amazing and warm - pool was chillin', like most in Mexico due to not being heated. Very good breakfast lunch place with reasonable prices. Round bar overlooking the beach was also convenient.

While the location was nice in a remote fishing village, it was not what i expected. The sea was to chopy to snorkle. The hotel restaurant has a nice view but it was very difficult to eat with all the flies and mos. The room was small, towels smelly, pool green with algae, the wifi and power went out four times so I could not do any work. Also the American crowd was on the rough side. I will definitely not return.

Excellent week spent at Playa del Sol! Staff was very helpful and friendly. Missed having a swimming pool that wasn't heated, but week was unusually cold and wet for Baja. I felt safe walking streets during day and having a golf cart rented was great for extended exploration. I had garden room and it was perfect for 1-2 people. Lots of fun places to eat..at Playa and within walking distances,

We had a great time at this beautiful property. Only one thing, the pool deck was not swept our entire weeks stay. This caused uncomfortable walking as tree seeds were on the deck. Other than that it was amazing.

BOOK IT.

Really cool place. The property was gorgeous.. right on the beach! We saw staff constantly cleaning or tidying up. The staff were extremely nice and helpful. The Hotel is right on the beach and more than enough space for guests to spread out. We loved the chairs and table right outside our sliding glass door. That was nice for those beautiful sunrises/sunsets. The restaurant upstairs was delicious, some of the best food in town. The restaurant staff was also very nice, particularly the young man who was our server multiple nights. We enjoyed coffee in the morning from the cafe downstairs. My husband fly fished from the beach every morning/evening and it was “some of the craziest fishing he’s ever done” The location is perfect, right on the beach but close enough to town that we walked there everyday and didn’t feel the need to get a rental vehicle. My husband is already planning another trip back! We will most definitely recommend Playa Del Sol to anyone. Thank you for such an amazing and memorable Birthday!

I'll be back

Amazing staff, gorgeous location, safe, great food, clean & cozy. Charging food and drink to the room was super convenient. The only minor negatives to this wonderful place was the beds were not very comfortable and the process for using the hotel pickle ball courts was a bit clunky. We found out when we got there that the courts are "reserved" until 10AM most days unless you get on the "list".

After our first day the pool was drained and then under repair. We were not advised. Was one of the reasons we picked that hotel. Lounge chairs were also put away. Lights going into resort from town were off at night, was a bit dark if Venturing out. But food was good, staff friendly and resort kept clean.

Ocean views galore

Check in was quick and easy. The hotel is in the heart of Los Barriles and on the beach. They have a large pool. I would definitely get a pool/ocean view room. It is worth the extra $$$. The bed was a little soft for my liking. They have a cafe/coffee shop which has food and is open earlier in the day. They have a full bar/restaurant in the evenings as well as a little palapa bar right above the beach with a great view. We saw whales breaching and playing and rays jumping, all right out in front of the hotel. The staff were all super friendly, especially Leo. A couple of things to note. Our room did not have a microwave or coffee maker. Also the water pressure is a little light and the sink drained slow. But these are small things compared to all the great things about Playa Del Sol. We will most definitely stay here again. It is 2 blocks from the main streets and there are a ton of restaurants, bars, taco stands and grocery options within a few blocks.

Liked: Staff & service
The A/C sounded like it was going to fall off the wall all night. The bathroom towels were old, stained at ratty like cleaning rags. The employees were beautiful, pleasant , sweet & hard-working people. Food was very mediocre and expensive. The rooms needed some eating utensils and a microwave. A clock in the room would have been very nice. The view on the beach was excellent . They should give guests #1 dibs on the pickleball courts. NOT the locals hogging all the courts in the cool mornings. Just wrong and frustrating not to be able to play pickleball as advertised for the price paid to stay at the hotel!!!!

No information given at check-in, just the room card. I then assumed that there would be some basic info in the room like Wi-Fi password or how to set the safe code but there was nothing. No phone in room either so each time we had a question we had to walk to reception area which was frequently closed . Most of the staff were dragging and seemed uninterested and not properly trained for hospitality. We had a Pickleball Centre behind our room literally and the noise was really loud even with the doors & windows closed from 7.45 am - 6pm each day. The shower had no shelf to place shower gel, shampoo etc. Food was great, beach area was fabulous. It is walk to town and pavements are very unsafe. We used the beach instead which was so much easier even at night.
