If you do not enjoy Mexican food and the Mexican people - read no further - the Castillo is not for you! Their guests are 90% Mexican of all ages - Canadians make up most of the remainder. We were quickly filled in on the quirks of the hotel by our fellow Canadians, and formed a closer bond with them... more

I really loved my stay at Hotel Castillo in Huatulco. Although I don't speak Spanish, the staff at the hotel was friendly and helpful even with the communication problems. The food was delicious and they served a great variety every day. This hotel is not located on the beach but they have a beach club close by and run a... more

This was our third trip to Mexico. Thirteen years ago we stayed right in Puerto Vallarta and two years ago at the Riviera Nayarit (The Royal Decameron), which we really enjoyed. We booked our trip last minute and this was one of the only places available for the dates we could go and after we read the reviews on TripAdvisor,... more

The Castillo Huatulco was very clean and the staff was very helpful. The only reason this is only a 2 1/2 star resort is because it is not right on the beach and it is a very short bus ride to the beach club where there are food and drinks (included) You can also walk to a very nice beach... more

Huatulco may be the best winter holiday spot ever.In over 90 trips i have never seen a place as friendly,safe and just really nice and interesting. The hotel is is Santa Cruz where the cruise ships dock.Lots of neat stores and restuarants nearby.The coffee shop in the park under the gazebo is a real treat after dinner for coffee lovers... more

My wife and I spent a week at Hotel Castillo and it was great, no chain link fence to keep all the snow birds in. This is a great hotel from the check in to the check out. Upon arrival we were greeted with a drink which was nice cause it was hot. We had a room on the main... more

This was my first time out of Canada ever - and what an amazing introduction to Mexico! This was a family vacation - our daughter is 14 - and she was thrilled from start to finish. The staff at the hotel knew only slightly more english than we knew Spanish, but in either language they were very friendly and helpful.... more

I'm inclined to say Castillo is a dump to keep it secret but the other reviews would suggest I'm lying. I've been to Waikiki, Cuba (4x), and San Andres and my partner has been to the big Mexican destinations. This is the first place we want to visit again. Castillo is clean, with great food, great service. We notice some... more

Wow. The Castillo was the perfect place. Only a three stars but had everything you needed. Beds were a little too hard for my liking but the place was SO clean. The showers were hot and the pressure was awesome. The workers can't seem to do enough for you. Very friendly atmosphere. Close to downtown and the cab ride is... more
