Reviews for Cala de Mar Resort & Spa Ixtapa

Perfect for a couples getaway

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

This is an upmarket, elegant yet comfortable hotel in a spectacular setting, built into a cliff-side with crashing surf against the rocks below. The property sports wonderful facilities and very helpful, professional and friendly staff, it is beautifully decorated and maintained, and has everything you need. You get to enjoy a commanding ocean view and private plunge pool in every room. The hotel also has two horizon pools, a fully featured spa, gym, and two (three) restaurants on site. Access to rocky shore on site, not suitable for swimming (but other beaches and ecological reserve are a short walk or bike ride away). Would strongly recommend as a great destination to get away from it all for a week or two. Perfect for couples.

Hidden Gem - almost hate to share

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

Cala de Mar is one of the nicest resorts we have ever stayed at and that means everything about the resort. The beauty of the location and the view of the Pacific are spectacular. The staff is incredible - kind, attentive, willing to do whatever it takes. It's secluded from the hotel zone - which is one of the many things we loved about the resort. Easy to get into town but far enough removed to be out of "hustle and bustle" (although it's all pretty laid back). Cannot recommend this resort and its staff enough. Terrific experience!

Wow, oh wow!!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Wow, oh wow! ... We have stayed in some of the best hotels in the world and this one is our favorite! Views are unparalleled. Service is top notch. Francisco kept our room immaculate and stocked with water and fresh flowers daily. The service at the restaurant where we had breakfast every morning made us feel like we were at our second home. The food is all fresh and the quality is outstanding. There are so many things to rave about at this hotel. You truly want to pinch yourself and ask if it’s real. I would recommend having cash pesos for gratuity as it comes in handy and is preferred in some places. We did the tezmazcal experience which was special and worth it. Jehu took excellent care of us poolside. We learned a lot from the staff which enriched our experience. 5 stars, A+, we can’t wait to come back! P.S. We felt very safe and welcomed everywhere we went including downtown.

Amazing!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Cala Del Mar is a hotel experience that everyone MUST enjoy! From the moment you drive through the gates you know it’s going to be a special stay! The view! Being perched on a cliffside over looking the ocean like that is so cool. We hung out at the pool our entire stay. The lounge chairs are comfortable, the food is delicious and the service is fantastic! The entire staff at Cala Del Mar are so wonderful and personable, making our stay that much better! A highlight is the complementary chips and guacamole along with two beers delivered to our room at 5:00pm each evening! such a fun way to kick off the evening and enjoy the view from the balcony. we can wait to come back!

I visited after an event and found it to be an amazing, relaxing, experience. This was a single traveler trip and I enjoyed being in my private pool and foodie experience.
