Dreams Huatulco Resort & Spa - All-inclusive

Our second visit and the only all inclusive I’ve ever re-visited. The best aspects of the resort continue to be its gorgeous beach location and the high level of service. Employees take pride in the resort and some have worked there many years. Shout out to seaside grill/oceana staff they are wonderful. The rooms are adequate but have some wear and tear. For example our balcony door didn’t function well and the furniture is showing age. The food is mostly good, I love that the package we booked allowed for unlimited à la carte dinners without having to make reservations. And no wristbands! There was minimal waiting for a table and sometimes not at all. Resort layout is great. It’s pretty low key in the evening. A show at 8 pm in the theatre or plaza (a bit too early, 830 would be better) and musicians in the lobby bar after that. There could be more shade structures at the pool and beach. You do need to be up very early to get the best spots. However, watching the sun come up over Tangolunda is a peaceful and beautiful experience so I personally did not mind having to get up early. Thank you Dreams staff for a wonderful vacation!

My wife and I recently travelled to the Dreams Resort in Huatulco for this first time this March and had the most amazing time there. The resort sits on one of the most beautiful bays we’ve ever seen. The rugged and unfettered landscape is beautiful and we never tired of taking in the wonderful vistas. Our experience here exceeded our expectations and this was largely due to the phenomenal team members at the resort who must be mentioned by name because they deserve all the credit for making our stay here so wonderful. The tireless efforts each day of the Entertainment Team assured that everyone at the resort had fun, were entertained and they kept the vibe positive and friendly! Neftali, Luis, Fernando, Nadxielii and Chris are unbelievable human beings and it was a privilege to get to know each of them during our stay. We will miss them very much. Around the pool and beach area we were very well taken care of by the wonderful friends we made Sandy, Alvaro, Eric and Imanol who always made sure we had an umbrella to shelter us from the sunshine and fresh beach towels each day. Sandy and Alvaro were extremely kind, caring and considerate and always stopped by throughout the day to chat with us and make sure we had everything we needed. We are truly grateful to have met them and to be able to share our stories with one another. We will miss seeing you every day and thank you so much for showing us such kindness we will never forget you! Restaurants and Bars We received wonderful treatment at all the Restaurants and bars, our hostesses always made us feel welcome, particularly Jael who patiently tried to teach us some Spanish each day as she showed us to our table. No matter which restaurant we dined in we received amazing service from Cecelia, Mario, Alejandra, Leonel, Antonio (Himitsu), Jesus, Alfonso, Nancy, Ricardo, Renata, Berna, Libni, Fernando, Ana and Legna. Our bartenders Guillermo, Maxinino, Alexis and Leticia knew exactly how we liked our beverages made each time we placed our order and spared a few moments of their time to teach us a little Spanish too! Our Room was always made up with beautiful flowers and petals on the bed, the lovely lady that took care of our room was Ysabel; so too was so sweet and kind to us during our stay! Thank you for making our room look so amazing. It was refreshing to come back to a newly refreshed room after a day on the beach or at the pool! The Front Desk Experience was also a pleasure especially when speaking with Alexis, Leonel and Alejandro. Shoutout to Alejandro who helped me organize a little surprise for my wife early one morning! We agree, based on the people alone, we would comeback to this resort in a heartbeat. There are so many other staff members that also work tirelessly to provide the guests with the best possible vacation and the aforementioned people are the ones that did that for us. Thank you!!! Robert and Candace

Thank you for your Hospitality Dreams Hautulco Resort & Spa. The accommodations were spotless and comfortable. We enjoyed the many theme nights, the friendly staff and the amazing menus each day. There's something for every age group. You will feel like family at Dreams Hautulco!

Great location, beach, pool and service! Muy bueno!

We stayed at the Dreams Huatulco during our recent trip to Mexico for spring break. It was a mixed experience and I will try to highlight both the positives and negatives. First, the check-in experience was good - staff were welcoming, helpful, and friendly. We arrived around 3:30PM and our room was not available for another hour so we found a snack and explored a little around the resort. This was a bit annoying as we didn't have access to our swim gear or a change of clothes. It wasn't immediately clear why our room wasn't available, but we later found out that the previous occupants had negotiated a late checkout. Again, this was annoying and the communication could have been better - not the greatest first impression. Once we got to the room (an oceanfront Preferred Club room), we found it to be clean but well worn. The beds are very springy, i.e. when one of us rolled over, the other was sure to feel it. Overall, everything worked well in the room, but I had to reconnect the cable to the TV to pick up any channels. We found the food to be hit and miss - the buffet options were honestly not great. We found the options in the buffet were often lukewarm and the variety pretty limited. The service in the buffet venues was quite good, and they did make my son french fries when there was nothing else he would eat. The a la carte dining options were better (we tried both the Seaside Grill and Himitsu) - food quality was improved with similar service experiences. Bar service was generally quite good with limited line ups, friendly bartenders. My son especially enjoyed the ice cream and pretzels available at the Coco Cafe. Poolside experience was good, but I will highlight that the pool chair game is in full swing with many folks getting up as early as 5AM to claim pool chairs for the day. We were always able to find one (because we only needed one), but if you need more than one be prepared to wake early and rush to the pool to stake your claim. Lots of folks were complaining amongst themselves about this - we decided to join the game instead. My son enjoyed the poolside oversized chess board, which was surprisingly well used. The beach was absolutely beautiful and the location on Tangolunda Bay is the highlight of this resort. Snorkeling right off the shore is available and the resort has a number of water activities available including kayaks, paddleboards, sailing lessons, etc. My son really enjoyed the school of fish that live next to the rocks right at the shore, as well as the lizards that live in the rocks at the end of the beach. Nightlife was honestly too noisy for our liking. Our room directly fronted the plaza where live music and various theme nights are held. The noise generally shut down right around 10PM, but that's a little late when you're traveling with a kid who likes to rise early. What surprised me is how few people were attending these theme nights (aside from the ones that replaced the World Cafe as a dining option, i.e. Oaxacan Night, Caribbean Night). We found ourselves wondering why the resort would negatively impact the stay of the clear majority for the benefit of the 25 people who were actually attending these live music events. Did it ruin our stay? No, but it was a definite annoyance. In short, will we return to Huatulco? Absolutely, but I think we'll try a different resort next time around.
