My husband and I just got back from our week vacation to the Melia in Ixtapa. After reading many of the reviews before we left for this vacation, I was a little worried. There are many reviews that talk about the time share "sharks", the quantity of kids at the hotel and the fact that there were so many international... More

just got back from my 12 season at melia azul.I have been a member at melia azul in ixtapa for 12 years. I have done several upgrades over the years. I am also a owner of several other timeshares. I purchased the melia, because it was a different program. It is so much better than my other timeshares. IT MAKES... More

Just got back from our 7th or 8th trip to the Ixtapa area and we always stay at the Melia Azul. This will be the LAST time . The time share sharks were more rude and harassing than ever, following us to the elevator constantly. International visitors including americans were few and far between. More locals than ever, and they... More

AVOID THE VIP CLUB SALES PEOPLE: They are all over the lobby and will offer bottles and $ to attend a one hour presentation (typical time share approach). They offered us a great package including a free weeks in Europe and free Ski weeks. However, they would not allow me to review the offer overnight before sighing (should have been... More

I travel a lot on business and get jaded. I don't like hotels in general. But I will come back to this one. Loved ... The way this hotel is tucked away. Felt really authentic. Right next to a nature reserve. SUPER professional and friendly staff! The service was so good it really stood out. In a nice personal way... More

Because I consider myself to be a very savvy traveler, I feel very embarrassed writing this review. I am only writing it in hopes of saving someone else from making the same vacation mistake I made. There are two parts to this review, the actual hotel and then the “Melia Vacation Club” experience. My husband and I went on a... More

Our second visit to Melia, Ixtapa---reinforced our love of it. At a time when many Americans are nervous about traveling to Mexico...we renewed our love and appreciation for it. The direct Alaskan Airlines flight from LA makes travel easy. The all-inclusive resort features all the amenities one needs for a restful and relaxing getaway. From airport transfer upon arrival, one... More

I went to a presentation at the Melia Azul Ixtapa. The people were very nice until I started to have questions about the contract. The manager was called on the phone and it was agreed that the transaction would be put on ice until he could be at the Melia in person. That was to be the next day. The... More

We stayed here a couple of years ago and loved it all but the food. We did not starve but buffets and a la cartes were not good. It is away from the downtown Ixtapa busy beach and the bus was .50 to get to town. There is an excalator and elevator to get up to lobby from pool area.... More

We stayed for 10 days and we had a blast. The pools are great, food was excellent. There were tons of activities, beach, swimming, kayaks, sailboats, biking, kid's camp. Safe, clean and so much fun. Everyone on staff was friendly and accomodating. (note- avoid the timeshare people) More
