We have stayed at La Estancia four times and we absolutely love it. It is clean, very well appointed. The food is amazing. The views from La Patron for breakfast are unmatched. We were so impressed that they built a new roof over the patio at La Patron. The Italian restaurant for dinner watching the sunset is amazing. We walked several times into Bucerias which was a nice perk. We will be coming back.

Overall, this resort was a great find. Beautiful and we had an awesome ocean view. Travelocity, we were very disappointed in your website ads. you advertised this resort as an all inclusive. But it turned out this was not the case when we arrived. This made for an exhaustive and prolonged check in. By the end of it, all staff on duty had taken a turn to try to understand. They tried calling Travelocity to clear things up, with no luck. You do not get even a slice of toast for breakfast. You have to pay high prices for everything because nothing is close enough. Travelocity, it was disappointing to be mislead this way and being put in a precarious situation. If we had known, we would have taken the Marriot hotel right next to the Marina, making everything accessible within walking distance. Also the La Estancia charges USD12 per day which is only mentioned after ticket purchase. Hotel wanted a different amount (higher) This did not make sense, but we had not choice as we could not cancel and go elsewhere last minute on a short getaway. The perks offered to us, well, what a headache. An issue at every turn. Just make it simple and charge what you need and make it clear to the buyers. Just know there are other suppliers out there. We spent most of our time outside the resort due the inconveniences. The restaurants on the resort was way too overpriced. It cost more than what we would pay at home (Canada) Thank you Bella

Very disappointed in this property!! The rates were extremely high but the service and property were less than stellar. First off, the room keys didn't work. EVERYONE who checked in on Friday and at least thru Sunday could not get into their rooms without having someone from Bell service escort them to their rooms. Then, Wireless did not work at all in any of the rooms! The elevators constantly didn't work. And worst of all, Management did not offer any of the guests any perks or goodwill to accommodate for the less than good experience at their property. The team asked everyone to WRITE DOWN their credit card numbers, security code, address and signature to sign with a BLANK TOTAL upon checkout. It's insane! Since their system was hacked and they couldn't get it back up and running for at least a few days, why would guests trust this property with safeguarding this valuable and sensitive information??? Please avoid this property until Management gets its act together. The staff is very nice and friendly, aside from the ladies at the front desk who are NOT very helpful or accommodating at all.
