Marina de Oro

The beach area is wonderful, somewhat protected for the Pacific and lots of room to play sports on the beach. Conveniently located close to a large market and numerous boating activities - the Pirate Ship was our favorite. The kids area is fantastic, and the activities are fun. The food is very good, especially at the sit down restaurants. The Nightly shows are a bit late, but very entertaining. I highly recommend staying at this resort, and we have returned more than once and will again.

Be ready for timeshare spiels even if you are a owner.

Housekeeping is great, beds were made each day. Refridgerator wasn't keeping things cold, it was fixed within one hour. My wife asked for an iron, we got one the same day.

There was construction every weekday.

This is a great place to go with kids. If you take the all-inclusive, childcare is included, even for infants. The food at the buffet, Italian, and Japanese restuarants was quite good, would not recommend the French. There are areas that are Adults Only, like the jacuzzi pool with swim up bar, so you can find peace and quiet. The beach is nice with water sports available, but you have to contend with the hawkers selling their wares. Town is a 10 minute bus or taxi ride away, and the Malecon[boardwalk] is a must see. You can take the all-inclusive for just 3 days, if you want to try some of the restaurants in town, which I did. My unit was spacious, clean,and the maid service was daily. Internet service was available at the main lobby for5 dollars a half hour. Nightly shows in their niteclub. top shelf alcohol at the beach bar. Weather was always delightful. Grounds well-maintained.

I love it there. It's a great place. The staff is very helpful and attentive. Activities at the one pool are fun. Would recommend it to anyone.

The all incentive is very reasonable and the food is good.

Excellent family location. Food is above average with all inclusive reasonably priced. The beach is active, but quiet. Evenings are delighfully mellow.
