Real del Mar Golf Resort

Location, style, view.

Needs upgrade furniture, amenities. Rooms in general. I’ve been visiting this place r for many years and every time there are less and less amenities.

The views and the security was very helpful.

The beds weren’t very comfortable, mattresses felt like box springs & rooms were a bit musty.

The dinning and entertainment was good. The rooms could have used a bit more due-diligence in room management with cleaning and function status of appliances.

Every July, my family of 50 (sometimes 75 ) has a birthday/summer gathering. This year, we decided on this hotel. All was good until we actually arrived. Weeks prior, we checked to make sure the hotel could accommodate our family. They said yes. We asked for an area to gather, bbq, and play Cornhole. Sure, they said. Upon arrival, we discovered there was a wedding taking over the areas we had designated for our family. It would've been nice if they told us that. We were limited and confined to the pool area. There were communal restrooms that we and the wedding party shared. As more people used these restrooms, the smell of sewage would grow. Our rooms were lackluster with old decor. Our beds were very OLD. We brought our own sheets since the covers looked like they were from 1984. There was NO hot water in the showers. Wait a little while, they said. 10 minutes of running water, nothing. Needless to say, my hot flashes were my saving grace that weekend. Just outside our window was an atrocious smell of the sewer. It only got worse as the weekend went on. Since there was a wedding, my entire family was shoved aside to accommodate them. We went to the onsite restaurant to have dinner. Our wait was over 1.5 hours for food since there was the wedding party having their dinner. We watched as plates came out and they were not ours. On the last evening of our stay, the sewage smell emanated into our room and it was unbearable. We left at 4:00 a.m. I give them a -10.

Property was easy to get to, you are greeted by a guard and the check-in process was very quick which was great after being on the road for 5 hours. From the outside and via pics the resort looks a lot nicer than what it is. For the price though, it wasn’t bad but there were some things that made me wonder if our room had been unoccupied for a few years. I opened the window in the bedroom and ended up with a bunch of white powder all over my clothes and the top of my head. Whatever that was, it was all over the curtains. It got on my kids too. Some drawers didn’t close all the way in the bathroom sink. The ceiling had some cracks. Overall not terrible but I think at the very least the curtains should be replaced, the window screen replaced as well. The AC worked well, the fridge, microwave etc all worked great. The pool was cold, the jacuzzi too. This was after 6pm though. No ATM on site. Parking is great, you park right in front of your room. The Oxxo conveniently within walking distance inside the property and closes at midnight giving you plenty of time to get in there. The restaurant Brunette was awesome. The food was great and the service even better.

Nice property with nice views of golf course I had an ocean view which was nice. The room was a bit outdated but still decent.

What I like the most about the property is that I felt safe. Also, the place was clean and quiet.
