My trip report Here is a link to my trip report at this hotel. Again, I am very picky when it comes to hotels and this one I was worried about. I went anyways, and loved it. http://srv01.simplicityweb.com/cancuncare.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=12945&highlight=#12945
It's one of my favorites..... I've stayed there four times, and the last three, I got a free upgrade to a ocean view suite. lol and this cool black vip bracelet..... :lol:
They have different hotel activites , drinking games , volleyball , soccer, bingo ,etc . They are the few that I remember ... And they are the club things at nite
I will be visiting Costa Real in October for my honeymoon. How were you able to get the upgrade for an ocean view suite? Do you just ask for it when you check in?
Laura and I stayed here a couple years ago. What a good time. :beergone: :beergone: I played vollyball out the AAA. A few nites have no idea how we got back to the room, and that was just partying at the beach bar. One drawback is the beach, but other than that it is a good time place.
I really couldn't tell you since I didn't ask for the upgrades. I know they give upgrades to people that have stayed there before. All of the suites are nice, the ocean view is a little nicer than the ones overlooking the pool. However the ones overlooking the pool allow you to watch the shows from your balcony. I'll check some of my old papers form there and see if I can find the room numbers that have good views of the shows for you. I know other people I've met there have asked for the ocean view rooms and got them. They shouldn't be very busy in October so you (may) have a good chance of getting one.
I love the Costa Real! This May will be our sixth stay here, so I guess you can figure how much we love it! Because it is a smaller hotel, the staff become like family. We have become good friends with a lot of the staff...in fact when we were there last May for my husband's birthday, the manager of one of the restaurants at the hotel had a birthday party for him at his wife's restaurant downtown! At least 15 of the staff were there and we had a blast! The recent renovation is awesome! The lobby is beautiful with a huge marble bar, plenty of tables & chairs. The rooms are wonderful, with marble bathroom/shower, huge bed, 27" tv/dvd player, small table& chair and everything is super clean! The food is great! You have a lot of choices, although we like to eat in centro to get authentic stuff. If you like a smaller hotel with a small beach(it's immaculate but small) and real down to earth guests (not too many snooty ones!) then you'll like the Gran Costa Real!
