Cerritos Beach Hotels

"I stayed at the Hotel Riu Emerald Bay with my fiancé for 8 days. Up until the 5th day, we were having an amazing vacation — but unfortunately our experience took a horrible turn. While we were out, someone entered our room and stole $1,500 USD cash from my wallet, which was inside my purse and packed in my luggage. We didn’t realize it until the next day because we had stayed in the room that evening and didn’t go anywhere. We immediately filed a report at the front lobby and were told to wait 48 hours for an outcome. The following day we followed up with Anna from Public Relations, who told us she could not give us any information because it was “confidential.” She did say we could wait in the lobby on checkout day since our flight was later that evening. On checkout day, we spoke with management and eventually with the hotel director, Daniel, hoping to get answers or some type of resolution. Instead, we were told there was “no proof” the money existed and basically nothing could be done. What makes this even more frustrating is that these rooms require a key card to enter, and the doors lock automatically when you leave. Unless someone climbed through the balcony, access should only be possible with authorized entry. And honestly, even if guests choose not to use the safe provided in the room, that still does not justify people being able to enter your room and steal your money or valuable belongings. Guests should feel safe leaving their personal items in their room"

"El Cid Marina is beautiful hotel and great location. Staff were helpful and friendly."

"We had a great stay. There’s a selection of small pools outside. Great for families in the kiddy areas and away from them for adults who don’t want that. Pool service was decent. Slow at peak times as all drinks come from the lower level bar. Service was great though, friendly, helpful and pleasant. The rooms were clean. Bathrooms do stay wet because the fans aren’t strong and the water doesn’t all drain the right way leading to wet spots. Size was good. AC doesn’t go colder than 20°C so we did feel a little sticky at times. We had an ocean view and the balcony was lovely. Access to the beach was nice too. Just outside the super busy area so beach privacy was nice. Breakfast was really decent. Rotating choices, fresh juice and fruit. Breakfast service was fast and polite. Gabriel served us several days while at the pool, great guy. Rodrigo at breakfast most days, little English but very polite and speedy. Overall, an excellent stay."

"This was our second time staying in Pueblo Bonito and we came back because it’s always an amazing experience. Staff is amazing especially waiters in restaurants already recognized my kids and knew what they wanted to drink. Our room was upgraded to a suite and we had the best experience ever. "

"It was a lovely property - lots of garden area with many trees and flowering bushes, lots of birds. Many eating areas - all good. Pleasant open feel to the whole lobby and eating places. beautiful infinity pool and many different places to sit for the day. The beach was not the greatest, but good enough - sand sloped down and some large rock formations in water - a good flat beach could be walked to south of this beach. Located ok for out of resort restaurants and shops. Room was clean and had everything I needed - nice patio overlooking the gardens and pool and ocean."

"Breakfast was good, the server Dennise was a good server excelente services I give her 10+"

"Very good pool and hot tub. "

"Miguel who helped us with our check in and any questions was great and very helpful. The condo location was beautiful with an awesome ocean view. The condo itself was clean but kitchen could use some bigger pots and frying pans. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and will definitely be coming back!"

"This is not a resort. It’s a dump. No spa, no excercise room, no food, no bar, ice cold pool, battered up chairs&unbrellas, not maintained repairs and landscaping. Pathetic kitchen, bugs, leaky faucets. Empty. We were alone there. It’s false advertising and Expedia did not help to relocate us. Very poor service. Don’t get ripped off like us!"
