We had a great stay at San Carlos Plaza. Its location offers a quiet area amid the stunning mountains and a beautiful bay at the Sea of Cortes. The property is well kept, it has plenty of parking space and the staff is very attentive. The room was clean, spacious and beds were comfortable. We didn’t use the cafeteria but had dinner at Los Arbolitos, which offered plenty of choices, generous portions and great service, in front of the beach. All in all, our 2-night stay was a very enjoyable!

If a hotel could have an L on it’s forehead this one would- check in took over an hour, they don’t allow coolers on the beach or by the pool, they make you give the your ID (not show, leave with them) to get towels, the internet didn’t really work consistently, and only half of the pools were in service (and part of the half that worked, the slides didn’t even have water).
