We stayed for the week of Feb 17-24 2013. We first of all upgraded our room to a suite which was great! They have a loft upstairs with another full washroom which was so ideal for my husband and I trying to get ready to go out in the evenings. Honestly I had never heard of Ixtapa before we pulled...

Stayed March 24 - March 31, 2013. Just got back yesterday. This is NOT even a 3 star resort. The room - A/C did not work, beds were hard, toilet flushed when it wanted to, toilet shaked when you sat on it, tv had 2 english channels & no remote, terrace barely fit 2 plastic chairs on it, no safe...

We stayed for only 1 week but wished we had booked for 2. I was a little leery of this after reading the reviews that are posted but don't believe everything you read.This is not a 5 star resort but if you are looking for a nice, well kept resort to go relax in the sun and have a awesome... More

I pass by this place daily as i live nearby. It has a beautiful setting, white tablecloths, candles, dimmed lighting, a singer, the setting is in a garden and it looks very inviting. I have been wanting to go there for a while and i finally did. I ordered a Tuna Carpaccio and a lemonade. I wait for about 1/2... More

This is our third time at the Fontan and we certainly knew what we would be getting. It's rated 3 stars for a reason so if you're expecting 4 or 5 star, don't stay here. We like it because it's economical and you don't feel like to have to eat every meal at the hotel because of the money you've... More

Let me start,without getting a backlash that no matter what you do,for some Canadian tourists,nothing is to good,but of course it will have to be free.There is not such a thing as a free ride...I question why is it that some of the reviewers did not book a trip at Capella/Ixtapa..for a week where you will pay about 3200 usd...

I went with my wife a couple weeks ago on a romantic getaway and we were having a blast, the food wasn't marvelous but it was decent for the price, the ocean is good to swim, the pool is clean enough regardless of the amount of people and then we got to drinking and that's when it all went to...

We had an average experience at the Fontan. The best part was we went Monday - Thursday, so it wasn't crowded, even though this is supposedly peak season. The pools are excellent. Plenty of space, and the ocean was marvelous, although the views from our room wasn't terrific-ly great. Rooms were sufficient for the priceline price I paid. I would... More

We read the reviews prior going and we thought that people were exagerating. Unfortunately, they were not! The hotel was packed with locals all week. We saw mexican families of 14 people. One day, I counted 42 kids in the pool. That also makes it a bit difficult for line up for the buffet. Which is basically the same thing... More
