Like to say, this is our first time to Pasada Real in Puerto Escondido and won't be our last. To those that are considering going, first thing you should know. Westjet only flies directly to Puerto Escondido on Fridays, so try to book for that day, otherwise you will have to take the 2 hour drive from Huatulco. As far as the resort, it is an older resort, but they are currently working on improvments in many areas of the buildings. Yes, there is a bit of a language barrier, as the area of Puerto Escondido is a smaller tourist destination and many of the staff try hard to communicate. Although I think alot of tourists could make an effort to learn some basic spainsh when traveling to their country. The staff at the resort are some of the hardest working people I have encountered in my travels. The manager at the front desk (Abal) was a great help when there were some communication problems. When we got there, we were given a room without a balconey, which was what we expected as that is what we paid for, but the condiditon of the room was great and kept clean. If you want a balconey, make sure you book it when you book your vacation. Probably the best part of the resort is the Cocos beach club. It has a good size pool and lots of beach chairs available through out the day and one of the nicest beaches in the world. The food is limited, but understandably so as it is a smaller resort and with a small amount of guests, they need to avoid food waste. If you are considering booking here, I would really consider doing it sooner than later, as the area of Puerto Escondido is becoming more popular and with a expansion on the airport is going to become a sought after destinaion.
Quality for Value

Spent ten days here with my partner in March 2026. The location is perfect, short walk to town for meals, treats, local shopping. Less than 10km from Zicatela (pro-surf beach) and literally next door to Carazalillo (beginner beach). Very family friendly resort, no late night parties. The room was great - air conditioning was perfect, beds were comfortable and the room was cleaned spotless daily. The staff are incredible, the buffet was good, on par for other resorts. The pool is gorgeous, the grounds immaculately maintained. The beach club is a blast. Excellent value for the price. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to my friends and family.
Good value for the money

We were here for a week from February 20th to February 20th. We paid $1500 pp so we knew this was going to be a resort without anything fancy. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the A/C worked great. There are 2 areas to this resort. The main area up top where the hotel is and the lower area by the beach. The main area has a buffet, bar and two pools. The buffet isn't very big but we always managed to find something we liked and they had different themes throughout the week. Breakfast was typical Mexican food with the option of omelets custom made for you. Our favorite theme dinner was the Italian night with the pizza and lasagna being our favorite items. The resort shows 3 bars on the main level but only one by the buffet was ever open. The lower area has a restaurant and bar that is open from 11 to 6. From 11 till 2 you order off the menu and from 2 till 6 they have a buffet. We had the Fish tacos, hamburger, hotdogs and nachos off the menu and they were all pretty good but we really enjoyed the fish tacos, they were very tasty. They only had one bartender on at a time and they were always accommodating and friendly. We found all the staff very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The only entertainment they had was some live music 3 times during the week. There's no pool entertainment or evening shows here which was fine for us because for what we paid we had no problem walking 10 minutes into town and spending some money for entertainment as well as a few meals for dinner. Just remember there's nothing fancy, its a basic resort at a reasonable price for the services provided.
Run down place... Very basic.. food and drinks extremely limited... Stay away! 1 Star

Well... Run down place . Need some TLC. Pool tiles are missing... They have strange and stupid rules. Ex.: was there 2 weeks... Everytime you order something they ask you for your room number... Annoying... And I have premium access... Not even worth it for another $110 USD a day that you have to pay....brutal. Dinner not before 7pm...and only 1 option. No varieties No real a la carte. Repetitive food. Ive sent 4 emails before going there.... No reply. Few days no power outlet work in the room. No activities, no gym no animations.No one really speak English. Please avoid.
Best Hotel I have stayed at

We have been to this hotel many times the staff are excellent the rooms are clean the food is really good. The grounds are amazing the the beach (cocos) is well laid out and staff there are awesome as well the new infinity pool is excellent I tell all our friends and have brought people here many times and they are always happy and enjoyed their stay. the Hotel Manager Alberto in my opinion one of the reason we keep coming back he is an exceptional man and has help us with rooms and one time got us to the airport when the van that was supposed to pick us up to go home and did not show up and he saved the day. we will continue to go here till we cannot travel anymore. the only issue i had was the new infinity pool is awesome but they allows children there there are 3 other pools at this hotel and i enjoy watching the kids play and have fun it would just be nice to have one adult pool where you and go and suntan swim get drinks and sit by pool with no kids there.
