This resort is by no means fancy. But we had one of our best vacations ever! Before this hotel, I hated resorts. I found them too contrived and too removed from the local culture. We chose this hotel based purely on weather (location) and money (the deal we got online). But what a nice surprise. The rooms weren't at all... more

It was one of the most cultural visits I've had in Mexico. I met so many beautiful people from many areas of Mexico and made some nice friendships. The Mexican vacationers at the Resort were gracious and we had a lot of fun trying to understand each other. The resort was very clean, and I loved the Mexican food, the... more

We stayed at this place for two nights before getting into our timeshare resort. This is not a resort! It is a run down, old motel! We were booked in room 106 or 108 and it was in horrible location, very close to the exit to the pool area, so lots of traffic and noise that didn't not let up... more

We just came home yesterday from 2 weeks at the Fontan! WOW! What a total dissapointment this so called Resort is! Rooms- When we entered our room, it really had a bad odor to it, the a/c was so old that it literally was rattleing on the wall, there was no hairdryer and holes in the sheets! It was really... more

Spent the first week of March. Everything was clean, excepting a few little ants in the room (probably from the fresh flowers they scatter beautifully about). Friendly, but not over-the-top, staff... the location is amazing. Right where I'd want to be -- great beach location, nice pools - although a bit crowded. No specific complaints nor praises. It was worth... more

We stayed at this hotel Jan 24 to Feb 7th 2008. The hotel is an older highrise, but clean so no complaints there. ( we don't spend a lot of time in our room, so don't need plush accomadations) We did have some issues with a/c, not working day we got there, blew up 2nd week, but they did fix... more

My wife and I just returned from a LONG week at the Fontan. We have been to Mexico on eight different occasions over the past four years, the Fontan is the worst facility we have ever stayed at. 1st problem - The food at the Fontan is 95% Mexican, hardly any American style food to eat at any meal, we... more

My Best friend and I booked 1 wk all inclusive wk at the Fontan from Feb 21-28, 2008. I truely believe a vacation is what you make it and if you pick at every single detail - then ya your vacation probably won't be injoyable!! Keep in mind this is the oldest hotel on the strip and is rated a... more
