They don’t seem to like to do upgrades and seem to ignore Expedia Platnum membership benefits except for bottle of wine. We had to almost fight for a room upgrade. Only given two nights but it was wonderful. This is our second time staying here both times they did not let us check in early. Other than that this is a wonderful place with great food and staff. Beach is small but pools are nice. Kayaking is fantastic.

This is my first stay at Garza Blanca but definitely not my last. Already planning a trip to come back in a couple of months and bringing a group of people with me. Ronaldo, Mike, Eduardo, & Christian made this trip even better than I imagined. I came alone but these people specifically stood out at making me feel included, continuously happy, comfortable and as if my presence was genuinely valued. I thoroughly enjoyed the stretching class, Tai Chi, yoga, salsa dancing lessons, multiple hikes & swims to a gorgeous waterfall, and games on the beach. Was here for 6 days and still feel there was more for me to try and experience as there is no shortage on activities and restaurants. Part of my profession is being a Private Chef for high profile families and I can guarantee there is absolutely incredible food and service. I posted many photos and videos on my social media and have had 47 people *and counting* reach out to know where this incredible place is. Will continue to share with anyone and everyone looking to be completely and utterly happy. Thank you for such a beyond pleasant experience looking forward to being back soon. - Betty Boop ❤️

Generally this is a fantasic hotel... beautiful property, well maintained, very clean and excellent services. Unfortunately our Expedia VIP status was not acknowledged. Also, the doors to the rooms are not closed at the top or bottom, so sound carries into the room. We were woken several times from noise in the hallway and partying from the building behind ours.

I really enjoyed the restaurants and the staff here. I love my hot tub and hammock on the balcony . The heated Toliet in room was a plus . Some issues I had were my package included a bottle had to ask 3 times for this .. walked into my room the blinds and lights were working . Very disappointed since paid such a high price .. room service button on iPad did not work then had to call front desk for orders room service took forever don’t recommend .. and then our tv and controller didn’t work on e asked to be changed rooms were not accomdated at all . Also very first night made a reservation for dinner when we got to the restaurant the host saidit wasn’t there . Our snacks and mini bar weren’t refilled same thing we had to call front desk for this service .Honestly not. A good experience one thing after another . Won’t be coming back. More cons then pros .
