Posada Real Ixtapa

it was close to the beach and service was good.

Good but the food not so good

There was some construction going on slight noise. View was amazing. photo services were great.

The stay was overall pretty good. The pool has a very nice view to the beach. Food is decent considering it a buffet style restaurant. Bar service is good. Bar hours could be extended in my opinion. Pool bar closes at 5:30 and restaurant bar closes at 10:30. If you are looking for a very relaxed stay, this is it. Not much action going on like at other all inclusive hotels. The beds could be better. Only 3 pillows for a king sized bed (could’ve use the fourth one to have doubles). The shower was clogged, I assume there is too much sand we all wash off, it took time to drain between each shower. Service was excellent! Everyone we encountered was very helpful and attentive. The beach area was also very well kept. You get what you pay for.

Service here is not good food is not really recommended there was no cable in the rooms will not recommend this place

Our stay was 3 days and 2 nights at this property. Checking was a bit slow of a process. The front desk though friendly was also a little confusing due to the fact that the package I originally purchased was only for the stay and not for any meals. Once I tried to upgrade my package to an all inclusive the gentleman at the front desk advised me to just buy my meals at the restaurant which I was trying to avoid. Due to the fact that I didn't want to worry about carrying any currency with me all day. I tried to explain but he just brushed me off and continue to help the next guest in line. He also forget to hand me the key to the safe. The wifi password never worked. We tried all 3 phpnes and no luck!! The hotel and are room was clean and the staff was always busy keeping up with it's property. We had a great time at the pool and yhe beach.

The Hotel Posada Real Ixtapa is an excellent mid-range choice in Ixtapa. It is beachfront on Playa Palmar, which is an absolutely gorgeous wide beach with ultra fine light brown sand. Unreal sunsets, diving pelicans, warm-ish water, and not very crowded. The only downside to this beach is that it is quite often too rough for swimming, although the waves are so much fun to stand in ( don’t go over your waist ) and feel the crash of the surf and the thrust of the flow up and down the beach. The hotel is awesome if you get an oceanfront room, only so-so if you get one pointing out at the parking lot. We thought the all-inclusive offering at this hotel was a waste of money because the Buffet wasn’t all that good and there are excellent restaurants from 1 to 4 blocks away across the main boulevard ( you can see them as your pulling up to the hotel in your taxi or bus, you can’t miss them ). Also, if you were getting all-inclusive for all the drinking you want, you should know that the regular room rate (non all-inclusive ) includes unlimited pop, lemonade, orangeade, coffee, milk, AND DOMESTIC BOOZE!! Yes, unlimited domestic beer, wine, and frosty cold drinks for the beach or swim-up bar are included in the Regular Room Rate. The various vacation operators don’t publicize this because they want to sell overpriced mediocre all-inclusive packages. The only downside we found was very loud busy nightclubs next door on the weekend that kept us up. Otherwise an awesome hotel.

My spouse and I statyed at the Posada Real from March 23 to April 6th. We have mixed feelings leaving this hotel. First night, after what felt like a long day of flying. We were famished, we were able to get a basic hamburger and some chips to snack on until dinner time. Dinner time here begins at 7pm. Thought that was rather late but no big deal. We were the first people at the buffet. The food was very bland and also for being just set out it was also either luke warm or cold. The al carte that night was beef and tortillas. The server for the al carte didn't speak any English, but overall not a major concern. I personally went up to the desert area to see what they had for sweets. I picked out a couple of strawberry cake squares. I brought them to our table and had a bite. while i was chewing the first bite I looked at my plate and there were dozens of little tiny spider like insects crawling all over my food and plate... Needless to say this was a very bad first impression on our overall experience with the food here at the Posada. We booked our trip to the Posada with a full all inclusive plan. The quality of the food here was overall pretty bad. Under seasoned, cold or just badly cooked leftover food. We don't eat seafood, and it sounds like it was a good thing as we had heard there were other travelers that got sick from poor food handling practices. We ate breakfasts mostly from the al carte having mostly omelet's or having the morning cook reheat hash browns on the grill. The food prep there was even pretty sketchy, using one bowl to mix up any and all eggs that were to go on the griddle using the same fork to mix up the eggs dab it in the salt and repeat.. thankfully we didnt get sick from the food. We ended up eating at the restaurants up the road or in Zihua most of the time. The rooms were clean but basic. Hard firm beds (if it is your preference). The maids took their time to make towel figures on the beds. That was a nice little touch. The bathroom in our room was redone but it was starting to show its wear and tear. We booked for a mountain view room but we were surprised to get an ocean view room. So the view was great and was nice to wake up to. Our view from our room afforded us the view to the dolphin tank next door, and we were able to watch the trainers feed the dolphins every morning. Kinda neat... The staff at the front desk were nice and polite and helpful in assisting us in booking reservations and getting our laundry done. Albeit, the laundry service was very expensive. We had no issues with any of the staff, just wished there was a little more English spoken. There was no nightly activities here at all. Maybe due to lack of space available. But that was a little disappointing especially when you can hear all the festivities going on at the hotels next door like the Park Royal, and the Tesoro. But the big question... Would I go back to this hotel should we decide to return to Ixtapa. Probably not. Paying for an all inclusive and not eating there due to poor food handling/storage and serving, that's a pretty big deal to me. We ended up spending a lot more money then intended on eating out every night then anticipated. I've been to the Posada Real in San Jose del Cabo and it was a MUCH better experience overall then here. The food there was good, fresh and properly handled. Plus there was some type of entertainment.

This is my second stay in 20 years. The staff is amazing! The room was fantastic. The pool is awesome, and the breakfast inclusive is a must! We cannot wait to book our trip again for next year and bring our kids. It’s very safe there. I look forward to seeing our crew of amazing staff when we come back! Carlos, Veronica, Jorge, Juan, Jose, Omar, Armando, Ivan, Genesis, Kiya and many more!

The hotel was nice clean had plenty of options to do. Pool for the kids large ifinity pool with bar. Very nice restaurant on site with buffet for breakfast lunch and dinner. Close to the center of town and beach front 1st floor room was great and quick access to everything.
