I can't say enough about this hotel and the incredible staff that work here. We really didn't know what to expect with Marquelia and it wound up being the highlight of our trip. We stayed here 3 nights and the service was incredible. Clean rooms, nice pool and the beach is what dreams are made of. Friendly staff and our favorite place so far in all of Mexico. Thank you Jaime and family for all your hospitality the last few days! Hasta luego!

Lugar ideal para disfrutar la simplicidad de la vida. Paisajes preciosos, clima riquísimo, playas limpias, todo el lugar es muy limpio desde la calle, todos los días asean y limpian, nosotras nos quedamos a acampar 4 noches y nos sentimos increíble, seguras, atendidas, venimos con nuestras 3 perritas y todo tranquilo. Recomendación en temporada baja si quieres serenidad. Todo el personal ha sido muy amable, servicial, considerados y serios, aunque si eres de fuera, los locales son un poco serios en general. Comida deliciosa, pero debes ser paciente, pedir con tiempo en lo que haces otras cosas, pues todo lo hacen fresco y al momento. Muchas gracias a Gabriel y a toda la administración por apoyarnos en un momento difícil. Gracias a Judith por su actitud alegre!.

Las habitaciones están limpias, la comida es buena, tuve una buena experiencia, la atención de la chica de recepción fue excelente, sin embargo pretendí quedarme nuevamente, en la recepción había una chica morena que nos trató muy mal, ni siquiera nos volteó a ver cuando pregunté por las habitaciones y decidimos hospedarnos en otro hotel

Dic 2025 Estuvimos en el restaurante desde las 8 de la mañana hasta como las 4 de la tarde, servicio bueno, los meseros muy atentos y amables (se equivocaron en la cuenta, pero platicando lo pudimos arreglar), sales del hotel/restaurant y ya estás en la playa, por todo el tiempo que estuvimos 3 personas(dos adultos y un niño) nuestro consumo fue de 1200 pesos aproximadamente por los 3, almuerzo y comida Vista hermosa y un lugar muy tranquilo

The place is a bit rough around the edges, but the staff and owners seemed dedicated. No warm water, but the cold water was like 27-ish degrees so not really a big deal (centigrade). The airconditioning wasn't running like it should, but we made it work for us. The food was apways decent (except for the orange juice, try the green one instead). The beach here was bettwr for swimming than others in the area, because of the clashing waves, so even though the currents were strong-ish, we didnt get pulled into the sea like on some other beaches, where this can be lethal. Didnt see any lifeguards so swim at your own risk I'd say. Did see some whales in the bay.
