Great time again at the Sunscape!
Curtis R (Burlington, Canada) on May 03, 2022
My wife and I have been here several times and it never disappoints. The entire staff is very attentive and will go out of their way to ensure you are taken care of. We love Da Mario's and the Bluewater Grill. The fish tacos at the Grill are very tasty and the grill also does an la carte breakfast which is very good. We met some wonderful people from Alberta, Saskatchewan and BC that really made our trip extra special. This year we decided to bite the bullet and speak with a UVC representative of the AMR group and I must say, it was a very nice experience. Mauricio was our our rep, and we never felt pressured or rushed into making a decision. He made us feel relaxed and provided a lot of useful information, plus he has a great sense of humor! I highly recommend that you request Mauricio to take you on a tour and discuss the membership privileges. Later on we met Mariana, also from the UVC team and she was absolutely adorable and answered all our questions. We will definitely be returning to the Sunscape again!
Not our cup o tea.

Stayed a week here, the third week of April. The tail end of the season and during the weekday evenings the resort is somewhat quiet but during the day and the weekends the resort sells day passes and that is a huge issue for us. We were unable to get a spot in the overloaded pool area and beach chairs. The resort needs to put a limit on how many passes are being sold in a day to minimize the impact on the people who are staying here. We ended up leaving the resort daily to escape the madness. We did have two breakfasts which were ok. One lunch was fine and one dinner in the Italian restaurant was good. The staff that we had interactions with were all very friendly and tried very hard to make us happy. Our room had a great view and was clean all be it a bit dated. The common areas could have used more frequent cleaning as we noticed many dead flies. One of the reasons we didn’t eat here is that I had some stomach issues after eating as did a few others I spoke with and read the reviews of others that had experienced the same issues. I was hoping this would have been rectified. The location, if you like the resort feel then you may like this. If you like to experience a more cultural and authentic experience then this is not for you. The lack of enthusiasm we had for this resort was a blessing as we ended up having an amazing experience adventuring Zihuatanejo and the incredible beaches and restaurants in the area. We have been to Mexico dozens of time and We absolutely loved Zihua and will return to this amazing area of Mexico. All though we will not be staying in Ixtapa. I hope the resort addresses the day pass issue for future guests.
