I recently stayed at Playa de Oro for 1 week with a couple friends. This is definitely a 2 star resort, please don't have any higher expectations for this place. That being said, we had a great time in Manzanillo, it was a constant 30-35 degrees everyday, sunny pretty much all the time and very humid! The ocean is very... more

This was my first vacation to Mexico. I went with a group of 3 other single guys aged approx 26. I read all the reviews on TripAdvisor before leaving and was not disappointed. I had an awesome vacation! Staff All staff members were helpful, friendly, and provided great service with a smile. They took our suitcases, called us taxis, were... more

WOW-Whats the deal with complaining about a mattress?? We paid under $500 for a week of flowers in our room, a maid, a cook, free food, free alcohol,clean towels, and people waiting on us!Seems like a pretty good trade to me. Oh since tequilas is free, I found the mattress to be very cozy. As for nothing to do ,... more

Golden Shores Playa de Oro or Vista Playa de Pro is a 2 to 2.5 star resort. The resort show its age having been built in the 50’s however it is remarkably clean and well maintained by the staff. The Villas are spacious however the decor is outdated and the furnishings are modest at best. The beds are hard so... more

This was our first time to a mexico resort. We found the people just great especially George. Any time you needed anything George was there. There was a good variety of food for all meals. The grounds where well kept and the interntainment was second to none. We stayed for 2 weeks but hated to leave. The rooms are older... more

This is about the best 2 star place a family will ever find. Beach across the street w/ bar and snacks. George was great (Blue Deamon too). Did the Colima volcano tour, ask for Jose the tour guide. Italian resturant good, they came to us and asked if we wanted to eat there, no wait. Everybody tried to speak english... more

The only reason I'm not writing profanity is because they will take this review off the site. The good reviews on this site can't be real. The food was terrible, service was below average, rooms were sort of clean, and there was a million kids. The pool area smelled really bad from the standing water and was very noisy. The... more

If you want to see true Mexico, Manzanillo is a great place to see! You have all the American conveniences, plus you get the culture of Mexico. The beach is like no other...very golden and course. Pelicans are abundant. The ocean is (as always) incredible. But, Playa De Oro is wonderful. Never have I stayed anywhere where the staff work... more

As others have recently stated, the Playa de Oro has a wonderful staff. From Jorge, who seems to do everything from sing to set up off-site activities, to the older gentleman who brought us four beers complete with salt and lime without our even asking, the staff is excellent. The resort is kept very clean, with constant sweeping and trash... more
