My family and I stayed at El Rancho during my sons wedding. The rest of the family stayed in the zona dorada. The grounds were very well kept, clean, with a familial air. The staff were all very nice. Its great if you are going to spend time on the beach and around the grounds. If you are planning on... more

We have been owners at this resort for over 14 years and the property owners are asking us to invest more money in the property or we won't be able to enjoy the ammenities that we had in the past. They are completely ignoring our original contract. We're afraid that this place will not be around for very much longer... more

Thank you for your review of our hotel. We are very happy that you have been visiting us for the past 14 years, and that you enjoyed every visit in our Green Resort and our concept.

We stayed here from April 29 to May 4. This is a good place to just sit and relax, the pool area is nice, clean and enjoyable. The grounds are beautiful as well. The area facing the beach is the best though, relaxing under the shade, listening to the surf pounding and sipping GREAT margaritas made for a relaxed vacation.... more

I stayed at El Rancho Villas with my family for spring break and we had a great time. The quality of service and the food was outstanding! It was definitely a great place for a family with young children. I would recommend this place without hesitation. more

We have been drawn to El Rancho for over 15 years. Over the years we have experienced other locations in Mexico and the world but this is like coming home. The staff here treats you like family. You can stay in a villa in the garden and walk out to the sound of birds and beautiful foliage; walk out to... more

For my last trip to Mazatlan my wife and I decide to stay in a different hotel and i must to say that we found this just perfect. The concept is quite interesting because it's a small resort, by pictures is seams nice but being there was even better. Beautiful green areas. We took so much advantage of our villa,... more

The villa in general is nice, unfortunately inside they are not very clean. The showers were still dirty from the last guests. My sister and I had our bathing suits on the bathroom counter and one of the staff put bleach on the counter, therefore ruining our bathing suits. The kitchen was a nice size but was lacking proper cooking... more

Mazatlan Mex. Villas El Rancho Mickey John Earl Tom and Gary. The resort was dated and small compared to the others in the area,but the grounds were beautiful, the housekeeping was very efficient, it could have had an easier way to get refreshments down to the beach area but the bartender/waiter Jose did a great job in spite of running... more
