It was a very unfortunate incident and I am so disappointed in the Playa Grande that I will never go back. I am not a needy traveler at all and I have worked in the hospitality industry before and I always give the benefit of doubt. Now on with the story… It was our last night at the resort. After... more

We arrived hours before Hurricane Henriette made landfall. We were so tired from our wedding the prevous night, that we fell asleep when we got to our room. When we awoke we were in the middle of a Hurricane....It was awesome! The resort is great, every thing is on a massive scale, its beautiful. The service was fantasitc right down... more

To start, we were very worried about the airport, we had heard horror stories. Because of a review I read on Trip Advisor, I had arranged transportation to and from the airport through Baja Ground Services http://www.bajaonly.com/baja/transfer-rates.htm. It was $70 round trip for two people - best money I've ever spent! We were getting hounded at the airport but we... more

I travel for a living - generally 4 to 5 nights each week. So, sleeping is a hotel box - is not a great thrill. This is not a hotel box. The room ar open - great views ( on the beach side ), quiet and well appointed. I love sitting outside in the morning drinking my coffee, with the... more

We stayed at the Playa Grande early May 2009 (during the H1N1 flu travel advisory and it was very quiet). The Resort and the suite (1 BR suite with 2 bathrooms) were beautiful. There was a living/dining room with an open kitchen, a bedroom with a king size bed (mattress a bit too hard); the ensuite had a bathtub/shower and... more

We loved Playa Grande. It is a beautiful resort. The staff are so kind and helpful. We loved the food at the outdoor restaurant. The views are spectacular! It is walking distance to the marina and town, very convenient. more

We are owners at Playa Grande since 1999. We love the resort and enjoy coming back every year for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, we did not have any cell phone service there this year and consequently, we have one major caution ...beware of using the phones in the lobby with your credit card. We tried to connect to the US twice... more

We are well traveled throughout Mexico and decided to do an exchange from our home resort in Playa Del Carmen to Cabo for something a little different. We love Mexico and have been throughout Mexico 20 ++ times over the last 10 years, mostly with our two girls, now 12 & 14. Cabo is different than most other areas of... more

First of all, Playa Grande is beautiful. The rooms are nice, the pools are nice, and the service was outstanding. It is within walking distance of town and the marina. BUT, the timeshare salespitches are reason enough to never go near it again. My friends and I arrived (as guests of someone else's time share) and we couldn't even complete... more

Playa Grande is a fabulous resort. We had never been before and found it to be HEAVEN! We were in Building D unit 1042, which is on the ground floor adjacent to the pools. Location was super, we could see the pools, the ocean from our patio. We also used the patio door as the main door when we hung... more
