We really enjoyed the Tesoro Manzanillo. The hotel was really pretty and we had a great view of the ocean. It was very clean and the dining was nice. We were outside and near the ocean almost the whole vacation. There were little things that weren't perfect like half of the elevator buttons didn't work. I think the only drawback to this resort is that the recreation space wasn't quite big enough. There weren't enough chairs around the pool or at the beach ever. Spots under the umbrellas were staked out early and we only got them one day! Also since there is only one pool they did all of the activities there and it was hard to have quiet relaxation near the pool. The beach was clean and safe and quiet. Manzanillo was a great town to visit. Very safe and clean with lots of activities. We had no problem getting around the hotel and town with our limited Spanish.

This was our first trip to Tesoro. My husband and I travelled with our two sons, ages 5 and 6.
This is a breathtaking area, approx. 25 minutes from the airport.
The hotel itself is a little run down but it is still quite beautiful.
The food is good, not great, all things considered. However, the tacos are amazing and they have them most days for either lunch or dinner.
The beach is okay. Swimming is definitely dangerous unless you are a great swimmer, so the boys could not go in the ocean. We did see a puffer fish on the beach, that was cool.
Entertainment staff are excellent.
My only complaint is that the KIDS CLUB is not a supervised kids club like is stated. The waterpark is great and is obviously supervised but you cannot leave your children there and you are not permitted to bring in a beverage. The supervised activities do not really exist...meaning that in the week we were there, one day I saw a staff member making t-shirts with some older girls who had to buy the shirts in the gift shop before hand.
Anyway, we had a wonderful holiday but there was no break. If you do not need a break, this is the place for you.
I also recommend this for people who can not get around very well as it is a small resort with elevators and little distances between things.

we have been to the tesoro 9 times and we always have fun we were there in feb 2008 just a small group this time 17 for us.The staff is so good if you find anything wrong with your room ask for Ruben he will try and make you happy you can trust all the staff and we do leave things out and it is there when we get back and i did i dumb think i left my dig camera in the lobby and went to town for the day when i came back i asked at the front deck to see if they had it and they did WOW that wouldnt happen here in canada it would be gone that is why the staff there are so good. The food is good lots to pick from and i wish they had shimp there and more see food but then we would have to pay more for the trip. The best place to see the fish in on both sides of the beach you dont have to go far. We have become friend with the general manager wow can he golf we have been to many other citys in mexico as we try and go to mexico 2 or 3 times a year. Some are 5 star but not as fun and the staff are not as good. If your looking for fun this a place to come as they will pull you up on stage and do things with you to make you stay great.Last year we met the owner and his wife .Real nice people we chatted awhile and he asked me about are bands on are arms they were VIP band he said you have been here before . He ask if we had be to ixtapa but i said not yet that was last year in feb2007 so when we went home about 3 weeks late we went to the tesoro there . the staff was great the manager sent fruit and wine to are room sent a van to take us to the airport we were like a king there and not just us all the other guess had a great time. best time to go to manzanillo is jan /feb/

Went to the Tesoro as my girlfriend and I's first all-inclusive, and my first trip to Mexico. Check-in was a bit dodgy but once we got them to switch our room to a beautiful view room on the twelfth floor things got a whole lot better. The Buffet was pretty good for breakfast and I loved the more authentic Mexican snack bar for great tortillas! The pool was nice and not overly busy, although I would reccomend saving a couple chairs early. The weather was spectacular!! hot and sunny every day! Careful on the "pub crawl" as we paid $30 and basically got a taxi ride in a windowless van with 6 other people....the Bars are all on one street so you could just take a cab. The A la carte restaurants were OK I would reccomend staying with seafood/pasta as the steak was awful. Coming from canada we're spoiled with great beef, but this steak tasted like it came from a really old underfed cow that probably died of natural causes. Overall the Hotel was nice, the location was great, the weather was great, and the staff were friendly
