we were supposed to have stayed from 10/27/07-11/03/07, but didn't and left to ixtapa on 10/31/07. Let me tell you about this "Resort". i got this hotel from skyauction.com. i read the reviews from trip advisor and a lot of people gave bad reviews due to the fact that it was away from the city of acapulco. i'm like, "Great!. i want to be away from the city and away from the beach vendors." so i got the hotel for $592 all inclusive for 2 people. Let me tell you. it is away from the city. which is a plus in my books. you have the beach to yourselves, which is another plus., but the ocean is very rough. if you're a surfer or body border, this is a cool spot.. that is where all the pluses end. this resort is runned down. i don't know who runs the place but they are ruining this hotel. if they took the time to actually fix some things here and there. this runned down hotel can be a nice hidden gem. the bungallows or cabins are in bad shape. the curtains in my room had holes, the rooms was musty. the bed was hard on one side and very soft on the other. the linens had holes. the towels were almost see through towels. the shower knobs had rust and the ceiling from the shower was rusted and falling down. the paint from inside the room and the outside was stripping away from the walls. The shower had no hot water, but the water was not cold either. As far as the staff. They were nice, but at the same time lazy. there was only 8 families at this resort when we stayed. the resort was overstaffed, but yet seemed not care enough to cater to the families that were there. you would think that there would be a person asking the people in the pool area if they wanted something to drink or anything. but they didnt. the "Bar" area had very little to offer. as far as non alcoholic drinks. the only thing they had to offer was coke and squirt, and it was flat. as far as the all inclusive part. the breakfast was not embarrasing. here was the menu for the 5 out of the 7 days i was there.: wieners, pieces of fried potato, tortilla chips, fruit with bugs (yum), yogurt on a platter un refrigerated ( good if you want food poisoning), and tang (not orange juice). the only good thing about breakfast was the omellete. did i mention this was the same menu or buffet every morning. for lunch, now: once again "Wieners", fruit with bugs, salad with the same bugs, old fries ( which i liked), tortilla chips, and a mysterious looking beef stew type of soup. the only fresh thing they offered was the freshly cooked hamburgers, hot dogs, or quesadillas. for dinner, i really can't tell you since my girlfriend and i would go out to the acapulco area and eat some realy food. dont get me wrong. the staff at the restaurant were the nicest of people and i do not blame them for lack of choices as far as the so called "all inclusive" is concerned. i put the blame on the ownership of this resort. this place could be a great place, and it is in a great location. the beach is really beautiful. but it just seems that the owner or owners of this location just simply do not care. do no waste your money and go elsewhere. i just hope the owner or owners of the "parador del sol" take the time and read this and other reviews on this website and i hope they get there act straight or i honestly believe this hotel will close down. i will post some pictures of the hotel later on so you can see the plus and minus of this resort.
