Check-in – After arriving and unpacking, we decided to go out for supper. Upon leaving, we found that we were unable to lock our window. As we were on the main floor, one could walk off the beach, hop over the balcony, and slide the window open to gain access to our room. We went to the front desk to... more

Our check in was a little rough, so not a great start. We were informed we did not have adjoining rooms as requested, but that we could switch the next day if something became available. Which we did end up doing as Anabel took the effort to call us in our room and flag us down in the lobby to... more

My husband and I stayed at the Castilla the week of June 28 to July 5. We were very happy with our selection in resorts. Check in was quick and easy (One note: we would have appreciated real All Inclusive information at check in instead of timeshare sales people disguised as information, but I guess everyone needs to earn a... more

I am on my flight back from Mazatlan as I write this review. I really enjoyed my week stay at El Cid - Castilla. They upgraded my pool view room to an ocean view room for free. The room was large and very clean. The staff was wonderful. One of the advantages of going to Maz in July is that... more

We were there with other couples and did not do the booking myself and without reading tripadvisor. Anyhow the hotel was well kept and thank god we were recommended by a powerful travel advisor here from Signature travel. Her emails made a huge difference. The food was ok, the hotel was in the middle of the town so it was... more

We debated on several destinations in Mexico and finally selected Mazatlan and the El Cid Castilla for a spring break vacation with our daughter and her family. Great choice! Check in was a breeze, until we didn't see our name on the guest list. No problems - the daughter had their poolview room, it was just our oceanview that was... more

We just returned from a weeks stay at El Cid Castilla. There was my husband and me and two sons, 10 &12. Our room was okay (we were upgraded to an ocean view), nothing special, but nice enough. Most of the week it was very quiet at the resort. Was kind of disappointed in restaurant choices. We had all inclusive,... more

Dreadful experience first morning with the El Cid travel club presentation. Trip to Stone Island should NEVER be offered - it is a most dreadful place, and not where one would ever choose to sit uncomfortably for an hour before being served a small lunch. Castilla has only two a la carte restaurants for dinner, one of which was closed... more
