I enjoyed my stay at Playa Grande and did encounter some negative as mentioned in previous reviews but they didn't really deminish my overall satisfaction with the resort. I only have one complaint - pool side chair hoarding. This problem with people saving pool chairs with towels every morning at 0800 or earlier but not actually arriving until two to... More

My wife and I spent a week at Playa Grande and were very impressed with this first class facility. Our check in was fast at which time we were upgraded to a one bedroom suite on the “Ridge.” Expect to spend a few minutes with a time share representative after checking in because this is the only way to receive...

I had the pleasure of staying at the Playa Grande Resort recently on a trip with a couple girlfriends. It's situated on the ridge adjacent from the marina which keeps it a bit isolated if you want some privacy from the hustle and bustle of town. The view was beautiful from the pool, the staff are friendly and plenty of... More

Playa is a very well kept property with really friendly staff and wonderful amenities. I'm prefer Grand Solmar's layout, the pool areas are quieter, but then GS is brand new and has 10 years of evolution built into the design. The value is excellent, paid $199 including tax for a 1 bedroom. The resort is in immaculate condition and the... More

Playa Grande is a resort we enjoy visiting on a yearly basis. A major reason for this are the wonderful people who work there. Every time we return, it's like returning to visit our second family. We stay on the Ridge which allows us a beautiful view of the Marina, the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific. At night, the... More

Always feel safe and comfortable here! Lots of things to do for people alone, couples and families. Breakfast buffet is excellent or you can order anything you want. There are no vendors bothering you on the beach and can walk the beach in safely. This year we were able to taken in the turtle release which made our day. Because... More

Ridge Members should have exclusive amenities, we were promised such as buyers. As a Penthouse Member on the Ridge, Internet acess should be included free, as Ridge Members pay large maintenance fees. Ridge Members should have colored wrist bands so that exclusivity can be maintained, (too many non Ridge people gain pool access) and a certain number of pool chairs... More

I had no problems booking with Bookit.com. But i would not recommend this resort. If you have ever been to Cabo San Lucas then you know that everyone, everywhere is trying to hustle you. Either trying to get you to book whale watching, fishing, sunset cruises, or a stupid water taxi. That's fine and something you can deal with, but... More

We have been visiting Playa Grande for two years during the first two weeks of January. We really like staying here—the rooms, the pools, the beach, location--but things have changed from a management perspective and none of it appears to be in favor of—or with any prior notice to—their guests or owners. This year, unannounced, management added 10 USD to... More

Had a room on the 3rd floor of the building directly on the beach (building A if I remember correctly). Awesome room and view. At night, my gf had trouble sleeping because the waves crashing were that close, it actually woke me up once or twice...I know, what a tough problem to have. Anyway, the room was nice. No complaints... More
