This property is truly unique in the area in that it remains one of the only hotels in the area that has a distinctly Mexican decor and flavor. The units are spacious. The accouterments for cooking or cleaning are not so great. The staff in the restaurant and bar are very helpful and pleasnt. Access to the gorgeous beach in front of the property needs to be replaced. Access is not possible at high tide. We did enjoy our stay very much.

Family vacation.
The stay was overall ok. Not going to say perfect but rather good. The check in could of been better. One of the receptionist was very rude and could definitely used a lot more customer service help. The rooms were clean. The pool was not h qted and a little cold for my taste. The view to the beach/ocean was gorgeous. That was my favorite part of my stay!

Bring your blow dryer & iron
I would recommend this resort only thing i’d have to say don’t forget your blow dryer & iron. I didn’t like the fact that reception desk closes at night. Other than that staff is great & the place is very relaxing

Okay but.....
Just very tired place. Power out for an hour or so, furniture dirty, blinds did not work well. Right on beach which was nice. Crashing waves hypnotic. Sunsets beautiful. Lush gardens and, nice swimming pool but, hot tub closed down at 9 so no night time leisure soaks.

We enjoyed the small size of the resort. The villas were probably beautiful when they were new. This resort needs some money put into it, but has the potential to be wonderful. The mattresses were quite hard. The pool was constantly being filled with a hose. Service was pretty good and staff were agreeable. there was a limited variety of menu items, but we enjoyed what meals we had there. We chose Villas El Rancho in order to be close to family who were staying in their more upscale private condo. We spent a lot of time visiting over there as it was more comfortable. With money put into upkeep and a bit nicer amenities, this place would be great because it’s not like all the other places to stay on Cerritos.

Quaint Family Hotel
The staff was friendly and spoke enough English to work with our bits of Spanish. The hot tub wasn't hot, but it was a fun clean, hidden side pool. The beach was immediately outside the back of the hotel, which was fun and offered a stunning view. The restaurant was so-so, except the tortillas which were awesome, the ambiance which was fun, and the waiter who was fantastic. The bedrooms all have doors with open slats, so there is no sound privacy in any of the rooms. What was set up to be the master was actually a loft situation, completely open to the living room. We'd go again!

It is a good place if you have a big group & cook
It was okay. Ants were present in kitchen. There has not been any unkeep, like rusty shower pipes, old couch that dips deep when you sit on it. THe cleaniing lady was great everyday with new towels and sweeping. THe beach was not good this year.

Ok but would try another hotel next time
Hotel was ok but they shouldn't advertise services or amenities they don't have. They don't have a hair dryer as advertised. They don't have 24 hour reception as advertised. They don't have an iron and ironing board as advertised. I had to go ask for an iron and that's how I finally got one. Also, wifi was only available in the pool area and not inside our villa. The water you shower with is salty, I guess thats part of being a green resort. Overall It was ok but would not return.
