We arrived at the Los Sabalos hotel 1 hour before check-in but they still let us check in, they were very helpful with everything at the front desk with all the questions that we had. We went up to our room and when we walked in we noticed that the room was a mess and the beds were not made, but we did arrive one hour early but not to worry the maid walked in right behind us and told us sorry that she had been very busy that day and our room would be ready in one hour which was fine because she let us put our luggage in the room so that we could go get lunch. Our room was always very clean and the maid even left us red roses one day which was very nice. Joe's Oyster Bar is a very fun place and I loved the service there, the waiters had my drink order down after 2 days. I also loved the service at the outside bar by the pool, our waiter Francisco was so nice! Maria at the front desk was so helpful and they even ordered Dominos for us one night! I loved this hotel and would love to stay there again.

Hola,
Number 1 we DO NOT stay at this hotel. We stay at the hotel across the street. We always use Los Sabalos' deck for tanning and have for years. The reception that we get from the staff is great. When they see us come through the corridor they come and give us hugs on the first day. Olga and JR our are ppl. When they see us coming they move the chairs in front of the beach and bring us our chaise with small table and the drinks are on the way. Pll look around to see what's happening and it's just us. They give great service and the beach area is always clean. Had lunch there for the first time this year. Good food and lots. Though not overly cheap but you are right on the beach and you're on holidays so what do you expect! Can't figure out why lemonade(no matter where you go) is more expensive than beer? My beer is 15p and the lemonade is 40. Go figure. If you have any questions about Maz feel free to mail me. Pete

Now, I haven't been to Los Sabalos in 7 years, but when I was there, everything was absolutely wonderful. I had no complaints at all. The service was great, food good, and Joe's Oyster Bar, what a hell of a good time. If you are going on a family vacation, this obviously wouldn't be my first choice for taking my kids, but for an adult vacation, it's a great place to get wild and have a good time. We will be going to Maz in May and will be definately staying at Los Sabalos.

I have to agree with the person from N.Y. We have been going to Mazatlan for seven years and have certainly enjoyed our stays at Los Sabalos. You are in another country and some things are different--that's why you go there. We have received nothing but friendly smiling service from the manager--Mr. Enrique he is the best-- to the hotel maids who make you feel at home if you give them a chance. Can't wait to get back this year with five people from the U.P. of Michigan.
