My husband and I just returned from a lovely weekend in Puerto Penasco. Our usual hotel was closed, so we chose to gamble on the Laos Mar despite some poor reviews. First of all, it isn't the Ritz. You're in Mexico not Beverly Hills! What do you expect?! Yes, the turn of the economy and HR1070 have affected the entire... More

I booked a two night stay at this hotel because not only did the description say it was right by the beach (it was behind another resort an walking distance from beach was pretty far) but because the pictures online actually looked nice. We got there and the front desk receptionist did not speak one word of English so we... More

Across a non busy street to the beach. Rooms were clean enough. Service was good ( enough) This aint the ritz, but it ain't a dive either. Oriented more toward upscale Mexican FAMILIES. If a bunch of guys are going on a boozer, you'll not want to be here. More

I had the choice of staying at the Playa Del Sol Hotel for $120.00 day or Laos Mar Hotel for $60.00 day & I am glad I chose Laos Mar. First of all this place is very hard to find. DIRECTIONS: From Hwy 8 look for large green sign on bridge overpass that tells you to take right turn to... More

Many of the post are ridiculous. There are many prissy people out there and you need to consider the source. Value is there. It is NOT a high end hotel. CLEAN, SAFE, HOT SHOWERS and close to the beach. What can you expect for TWO nights for $135 for the weekend???? I have traveled to Mexico many times (in the... More

I traveled to Puerto Penasco with my husband and we were looking for an affordable, yet clean place to stay. We wanted a place close to the beach and it really didn't matter if it was beachfront. Laos was the perfect place. The rates were low. The rooms were very clean. Checking in and out was a breeze. The employees... More

Have stayed at Laos Mer at least 8-10 times and never had a problem. Maid apparently took a disliking to our group of 4 adult males. Had to call front desk every day for towels, hand towels, soap and toilet paper. Each room had electronic lock fail on different days and right after maid visit. And mysteriously on seperate nights... More

We were loyal fans of Laos Mar and have always stayed there so again we booked this weekend there and were surprised to see rates have dropped to $49 on the weekend. We were paying $75 four years ago and were glad to do so because at that time, it was a great deal. Needles to say, things have changed.... More
