We spent our 36th Anniversary on the Ridge at the Playa Grande. The Ridge is an exclusive Resort within the Resort and sits up on a ridge between the main resort and the Marina. At first we were a little bummed with the lack of the Pacific view from our balcony but as time went by we decided the Marina... more

We went to Playa Grande through an RCI exchange. For airport transportation, I had read that there was some dispute going on, so I used that traveler's advice and booked round-trip transportation from TransCabo. After you go through customs and immigration, get your luggage, exchange your money - GO STRAIGHT OUTSIDE! You pass through a room where someone says, "Oh,... more

Our one bedroom apartment was very clean and well appointed. The only exception was the non-conventional sofa bed that was a pain to set up. I also missed not having a dishwasher or oven in the kitchen, but not a big deal since we only ate breakfast in the room. It was pretty nice having a Costco and Wal-Mart just... more

Let me first start off by warning first time visitors when they arrive at the airport. Unless you want a time share IGNORE EVERYONE when you finally get your luggage and head toward the exit where you can purchase cab rides. They do offer free cab rides and some excursion money, but do you consider 60 bucks about 3 hours... more

My wife and I are grand mayan owners in our early 30s and did an RCI split exchange to be within walking distance of the marina and all the timeshare selling, chiclette offering, offshore fishing guide people that go with it. WHOOO CABO!!!! The resort itself is nice and we were given a 1 BR suite that overlooked the pool... more

My family and I loved the Playa Grande, pressure to purchase was light, as we politely declined. Although the beach was not usable, the pools, poolside service, and room service were great! Our kids, age 10 and 4 love the beach but were not disappointed by not be able to use it, since there were several pools which accommodated every... more

Have stayed at this hotel twice in a penthouse suite and enjoyed the room. The hotel was being expanded and the noise rather loud, but overall the swimming pools are nice and the restuarants are very good, but expensive. It might be nice to be closer to town if you have teenagers. more

Recently stayed at Playa Grande and want to share my thoughts. This is truly a beautiful, luxurious resort. We went on an RCI exchange and were given a lovely ocean view suite. The accommodations were large and clean but were a little worn. The location is great as you can walk to town, the marina (where all the activities are),... more

We just got back from our 6th visit to Playa Grande. It's spectacular and spotlessly clean with daily maid service. Very friendly employees, but this time I noticed the poolside service was less impressive than previous years. (We were here at a different time this year, so maybe staff changes????) All bathrooms are marble, towels in the room are plush... more

This place was beautiful, friendly, fun ... It is the best resort I have ever stayed in. I can't wait to go back!!! There are so many free on site activities you don't even have to leave. more
