Al and Amy have a nice condo on a quiet, residential end of the island. The pool and jacuzzi area are luscious and relaxing and the beautiful beach is steps from that. The surprisingly well-stocked and reasonably priced little store made life so convenient. The huge staff that keeps the place well maintained was so helpful and extremely friendly, as... More

Wow what a great trip. We have never wanted to travel to Mazatlan and wow, we realize what we have been missing. Great resort for your family. Please note that this is not the place to stay if you want to be close to the 'action' or have teenage kids. Teenagers will most likely be bored. If you want to... More

Traveled with 2 adults and 4 teens. This first floor condo was ideally located, just steps away from a glorious pool overlooking the ocean. Sleeping arrangements were comfortable for all, and the kitchen was well-stocked for the several meals we cooked in the unit. The staff was especially friendly and helpful. Management personnel on premises was available for specific questions... More

We stayed at the Costa Bonita on Ceritos Beach in February. The weather was perfect as it always is in Mexico this time of year. The location on Ceritos Beach is great. The beach itself is very long and you can have great walks in both directions as the resort is in the middle. The beach is just 10 minutes... More

Just returned from a week at the Costa Bonita and loved it. We were a little apprehensive about booking there after reading some of the reviews on this website. We have two and a half year old twins so we were a little scared of the "cranky owner" who would be taking great pleasure in scolding our kids. Well as... More

After reading some of the reviews, I was a little concerned about my choice in places to stay. I think the negative reviews are a bit overblown. My beach vacation is about relaxing, so not having loud pool activities and very few children was a positive thing to me. There was food and beverage service at the beach, although not... More

We rented from an owner the last 10 days of December 2007. It was unseasonably cold (55-60 degrees with a stiff north wind!) which really put a damper on the time you would want to spend on the beach. The ground floor condo was very nice and I would recommend it (search for Al and Amy's Oceanfront Getaway). The condo... More

Although this condo is not horrible it is NOT by any stretch of the imagination a RESORT like it says in its title. If you are looking for a resort stay please book somewhere else. The beach and pool are nice but virtually no activities and definitely NO service by the pool or beach. You had to chase the waiter... More

Costa Bonita is not for everyone. It is safe, clean, well maintained, lush, and hosts a beautiful beach. It really is best for a couple (or couples) who want a quieter vacation. The reason is it is off the beat-and-path north of the new Marina on New Mazatlan. Just a couple of restaurants close by. The complex has many seasonal... More
