I've never done water aerobics in my life but while on vacation, it's always nice to switch up my work out routine. The water aerobics is a blast and a good work out! 11:30 is a perfect time based on Tequila consumption. Love the instructor, Ro - fun, funny and cute! Pool could be a bit cooler, but other than that - a very pleasant experience.

Being a trip advisor top contributor I take pride on providing fair and accurate reviews. Playa Grande has not treated us fairly and we feel very deflated by thier lies. The resort itself is very lovely however our judgement it tainted with how we were treated by the front desk. We are RCI platnium members and recieved an email from the resort confirming our reservation and stating we had been upgraded to a penthouse suite last week. We were thrilled!! However upon arrival this last Saturday the front desk told us our reservation was not valid and that we would have to stay at their lesser property the Ridge and would have to then move to another room the following day. We showed them our email confirmation from erick diaz whom we had also spoken with last week and it did us no good. We asked to speak to the manager but were told no manager was available. How does this happen? The next day we spoke to someone else and again was told the same thing and still no manager available to speak to. This 2nd person was able to get us jr suite at playa grande with beautiful palm trees blocking our view of anything. So here we are wondering why they are so heartless to send an email getting our hopes up only to set us up for dissapointment. We will make the most of our hard earned vacation but wiil not recommend this resort to any of our friends and family. - side note it is true what they say about the dogs barking on the ridge side.

I will admit that we are owners at Playa Grande, but it is nice to be reassured that we made a great decision when we purchased there. The property is well maintained and the staff is wonderful. We were particularly impressed with Aleida and Alejandra in the Lobby Bar - they were so sweet and accommodating that we would have liked to take them home. The timeshare sales staff can be pushy, but that is true everywhere you go in Cabo. You just have to let them know if you are not interested, and they will leave you alone. If you don't enjoy your stay at Playa Grande, then you must be pretty hard to please!

I read several reviews of the resort prior to our trip and was worried that choosing to stay at Playa Grande was a mistake. Others wrote of long check in and check out, incessant time share requests, slow or poor room service/pool service, etc. We found all of this to be wrong! We were extremely satisfied with the resort, the staff and the service. Check in and out only took 20 mins. The front desk gave us a ground floor room close to the pool which was perfect for our young family. It provided quick easy access in and out of our room and our kids were able to play on the grass right outside of our patio which extended our living space. The 1 bedroom was spacious and the kitchenette met all of our needs. My son slept on the pull out futon and was very comfortable. Service at the pool (Ricardo was awesome) took about 15 mins for food and drinks and room service took about 20 mins. Best thing we ate was the ceviche of the day and fish tacos. Other food was just ok, but we cooked most of our meals since our kids are so young. The grounds and pool were very well maintained. Our kids loved the koi pond and visited it every morning. The beach is gorgeous and we preferred the Pacific side since it was free of vendors. Overall, we were pleasantly surprised and will definitely return in the future. Oh and we were only asked about timeshares once or twice, it was not a big deal at all. We were there Nov 4-10, 2012
