Banderas Suites

The location is great! Steps from the beach and very clean.

For a newer building, it’s very bland.

We liked the pool overlooking the beach and ocean. The rooftop restaurant was nice with good and decent prices however quite sure it is run independently from the hotel. Decent location.

I hope the owners take these suggestions seriously. This place could be made super nice with a bit of investment and a lot of elbow grease. It looks very tired mostly due to a lack of deep cleaning and maintenance. 1. The pool heater should have a tray under it with a hose to drain it instead of being allowed to drain down the stairs, causing mold to grow on the steps (over time this is going to destroy the stairs to the beach and cost much more to repair). 2. The wood railing on the deck by the pool needs the rotten boards replaced. 3. Tiles by the pool shower need an overhaul or even good cleaning and all the tile decking around the pool needs a major scrubbing and some maintenance. Also, some tile work on the pool itself is required. 4. The grout lines in all the floors including halls, rooms, and showers need a good, deep, scrub cleaning of mold and grub. 5. Upgraded curtains and cleaning the furniture would be well received as well. They have stains throughout. kitchenware is old and unkempt. The kitchenette does not have dish soap but they want you to do the dishes. 6. Even the elevator is dirty from top to bottom. 7. Much of the painting is substandard including paint on windows and tiles as well as major splotching in the stairwell floors. Need a person who knows the proper way to use a caulking gun to peel old caulking in many places and do a professional job. Appearance is highly deflated from horrible caulking work. We feel like this place could be a gem in the neighbourhood but it really needs some maintenance. It is going to fall far behind all of the new construction in the area if something isn't done soon and we don't believe a fortune has to be spent to get it there. Sorry if this review offends the owner but maybe you are unaware of how others see it. We would most likely come back to this location however it would be great if you made an effort to bring the place up a bit. Maybe we could help. BTW: The daily cleaning was sufficient.

Fantastic beach access. Excellent tiered pool, worked great for our kids ages 5-3-1. Sad to have only stayed one night while passing through. Will come back for longer next time. Free parking in a lot across the street.

Room could have used another clothes drying rack / hooks to dry swim suits.

Pool and location to the beach.

All was well except the leaving. We understood that we coùld leave our bags at the desk and enjoy the pool after check out per their advertising but we were told we had to pay 350 pesos each to stay. We had an uber coming in 2.hours but Daniella insisted upon 350 pesos each even after i said we coùld tip. She said you are using the pool and i said there was absolutelt no one in the pool and only 5 of 15 lounge chairs occupied. I spoke to some of the other canadians and they felt the same way that management had changed and they had difficulty getting toilet paper and paper towels etc and they were going elsewhere. One couple had been going there 28 years and were moving 2 hotels over next year already booked.

As above front desk attitude intransigent. Uncooperative

Bed was not great, asked for a topper. Could have some amenities like paddle boards to rent,for the ocean.

We liked the location, the roof top patio/bar was amazing, the pool was top notch and the staff were all very friendly and helpful

The mattress was quite firm

Clean facilities.

Road noise, construction noise, no real lock on bedroom door
