2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2013

The food was horrible, really disgusting. The service is ok but could be better. The only two things that I liked were the room, especially the bathroom (beautiful and comfortable), although I was located in the 1st floor with a view to the parking lot and a lot of noise coming from the alley. The pool area is spectacular.

We visited with a tour group. The pools and all inclusive drinks were nice. The food was OK, but not great. The construction and room designs were subpar. Our room had a wall with mold, but the larger problem was that the ventilation/AC was poorly designed and a handful of the people in our group were unable to get the... More

I had a hard time deciding how many stars to award Playa Blanca, finally settling on 3, but many parts were 1 or 2 which leaves a bad impression. The rooms were incredible: huge, modern suites with full kitchens, handsome bathrooms, beautiful balcony views. The pool area is fantastic with many winding "canals" weaving their way throughout the grounds. But...... More

This is a brand new beautiful resort on a bay of the Pacific Ocean. The beach is wide, clean and sandy. Our one bedroom was actually a suite with a kitchen, living room, bedroom and bath. There was a balcony, too. The kitchen was stocked with whatever you would need for cooking. The furniture is very comfortable. There is a... More

We spent 2 nights at the Wyndham, it's not Grand. It's a nice hotel, the drinks (all inclusive) were good, and the food was OK. The breakfasts were especially good with a wide variety of foods. The room was exceptionally large, as this was to be a condo, but the design left a lot to be desired. In the bathroom,... More

Yes the resort is beautiful, large pool, and the first week of May it was completely empty as this is the start of the rainy season yet no rain. The bar is all inclusive which was nice. I enjoyed pina coladas by the pool and wine with dinner. Don't get the red wine, it tasted terrible. The beach is unusable... More

I am a little late writing this review. We sayed at the Wyndham Grand Playa Blanca in January 2013. I had a sore throat when we went so the first few days I wasn't feeling great so it was hard to enjoy myself. Not the hotels fault though. This is a condo hotel so a lot of the rooms are... More

We stayed here 2 nights and were expecting a gorgeous resort, like the kind we have stayed at in Mexico. But after reading terrible reviews on trip advisor we were very nervous. First let me warm you we had booked a deluxe room which was horrible. There are few of these rooms and they look out over empty lots and... More

We stayed for a week at this hotel from Feb 8th - 15th and had a wonderful time. Yes, there is room for improvement and the food is definitely only a 3 star but the rooms were lovely, very spacious and very clean. There is a definite language barrier.

The Wyndham Grand Playa Blanca is NOT as it appears at first glance. Located directly on the Pacific Ocean in a tropical climate, the setting is ideal; however, care of the structures and facilities needs a lot of attention. Our room was actually a suite with a living room and bedroom facing the resort grounds and Pacific Ocean: BUT, hot... More
