Pacifica resort is a popular destination for Mexican families. There are very few gringos here. We enjoyed the feeling that we were in a foreign country with the challenge of practicing our Spanish. It would be very helpful for anyone going to this resort to know some Spanish. The information booklet is all in Spanish, as is activity list. Not... More

Great Staff, Gorgeous Views, Wonderful Food, Good friends, it doesn't get any better than this. Nicest place we've ever stayed in Mexico. And a Massage from Lucie on the beach is not to be missed. More

Time of stay was from February 25, 2012, through March 3, 2012. The stay at this resort was an RCI exchange. That, in and of itself, was a problem. Why? Based on our experience, it appears that the Pacifica Ixtapa resort and RCI either do not communicate very well, or they have a bad relationship with each other. Our experience... More

Love this place, our 2nd time here! We stayed at the Senior Sands Penthouse which was nice, but there was road noise in our unit (3116). We loved the convenience of the unit, but would prefer to be closer to the ocean or further up on the hill next time. We did have our own private pool and a very... More

Another reviewer put it very well when they said "it grows on you". The landscaping and exterior of the resort is quite beautiful with many lush plants and old growth trees. I don't know how old the resort actually is - but it appears that the last 2 or 3 buildings, such as the Aqua and Master Sands, had no... More

We took our two kids (17,13...17y/o has Cereberal Palsey) to Pacifica knowing that there were a lot of stairs (luckily she can do stairs with help & crutches). Pacifica changed our room to limit the # of stairs, as well as always offered their van service for on grounds transportation :) Tons of activities for kids of all ages...kudos to... More

We arrived at the Pacifica Resort in Ixtapa and there was no record of our reservation, the best we could tell they had no record of our reservation because there was a lot of confusion. We traded a five star resort timeshare (Grand Mayan Nuevo Vallarta) through San Francisco Trading and discovered this was probably a three star resort at... More

To start everyone is po'd because they had to pay an assesment fee this yr. if they were owners at this resort! Apparently it is in our contracts (I do not have an original I bought on a website). When all was said and done they made special offers to owners: such as an extra week free when you paid... More

My wife and I love traveling to Mexico and have been lucky enough to stay in several places on both Mexico’s Pacific and Caribbean Coast. We enjoy the people and the relaxed culture. This was not the case at the Pacifica Resort in Ixtapa. Here you will experience Mexican nationals cutting inline in front of you at the concierge desk,... More

We are stuck with three weeks a year in the aqua section at pacifica, on top of the $3000.00 per year maintenance fee, we were just hit with an additional $2400.00 assesment fee to pay for pay increases, and new offices. We were promised all kinds of improvements when we spent almost $60,000 five years ago, none of the promised... More
