Hotel Casa Iguana Mismaloya

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed for 18 days this time with different members of my family coming during my visit. We absolutely love this place. The staff are all kind and friendly . They are like family to me. The rooms and walkways are kept so clean and the grounds are maintained beautifully. We enjoy especially the Aguachile and Arrachera from the restaurant. The hamburgers are so much better than home. The beach is just a few minutes walk away with some tiendas up the street and an OXXO nearly in the lobby. If you want to take the bus into PV it will cost you about 11 pesos and the last one leaves about 10:15 to return to Mismaloya. I am looking forward to returning soon!"

10/10 Excellent
"Wow, this was a trip of a lifetime! Absolutely everything was perfect. The pictures don’t do this home justice-it is ten times more stunning in person. It is so comfortable, beautiful and every detail is well thought out. The staff were so lovely and helpful. Fide, the chef, was phenomenal. Everything she made was a perfect. Rogelio was so helpful and attentive. I can’t remember the other ladies name but she was fantastic as well. The owner of the home is so responsive and friendly. The location is amazing, it’s so close to many of the attractions we were interested in. I honestly can’t say enough good things. It was such a beautiful property we even had a family photo shoot on the property. I recommend it to everyone and hope I can come back some day."

"We had such an amazing week at Casa Mis Rocas. The house was gorgeous and the beach views were amazing! Jorge made the week stress free and relaxing. Chef Francisco made so many amazing meals and always made sure we had everything we wanted. His chips and guacamole were second to none. All of the staff were very kind and accommodating. We spent most of the week in the pool and watching for dolphins from the balcony. We would definitely come back again!"
