I didnt like being pushed by every employee there to take a tour and 90 minute sales pitch about them promoting a new hotel and a 10 year plan presentation. I went for a holiday not to be harassed. I wouldnt call the rooms swim out rooms as the indiviual pools are not connected to the main pool which is what i had assumed they meant by a swim out room. The resturants need a bit more variety. The raccoons and iguanas are probably the highlight of the hotel as they are very interesting to see. The bed is extreamly comfortable which is nice. I enjoyed my stay non the less as the hotel is lovely.

I just went for my birthday trip March 16-20 and overall the stay was good. The property was clean and beautiful but honestly the upkeep on some things was not good. I booked two Jr suite hacienda terrace rooms. They are HUGE! Loved all the space and the outside jacuzzi. On further inspection we realized that some things were broken. In one of the rooms, the door that separated the bedroom from the bathroom was jammed open and couldn't be closed. The bathroom tub handle for hot water did not turn on and the phone in the room did not work. The other room did not have a phone at all. When we went down to concierge to tell them they said they stepping away from phones and you would have to leave a request on WhatsApp for anything. That wasn't explained when we checked in. They did send someone to fix the bathroom door but the bathtub handle was never fix. As far a food goes, it was mostly terrible at least when it comes to the buffet. Breakfast was amazing though. I was only able to try one restaurant which was the international and it was good. Some of the restaurants are only open some days so I did not get to try most of them. You have to reserve a spot between 10AM and 2PM every day. The earlier the better. The food on the Hacienda side is better and more seasoned. The Krystal grand side was super bland. The made to order pasta night was good also at the buffet but the line is long because they only have one cook for that. Overall the staff is super friendly.

The setting is stunning. Like being in a jungle with so many palm trees and beautiful plants! Hard to get a beach chair, they were always reserved by 7:30 a.m.! Food was ok, not great. Breakfast was very good and lots to choose from. Several things could use upkeep.

The outdoor staff around the pool was amazing and attentive, the pools were also very nice with lots of socializing. The rooms were not all that clean, and there was one day we didnt get clean towels (6 day stay), and a couple more were we only got one towel. The amount of restaurants is misleading as three of them are only open three days per week, and almost impossible to get reservations at. If i was to stay there again, i would stay at the Krystal and use the pool at the Hacienda. Also, the front desk concierge was less than friendly and offered almost no help for anything other than telling you to use their App (which rarely worked) to book reservations and such. Finally, forget about getting change or Peso's at the front desk, the will direct you to bartenders to get change. Basically, I would only stay there again for the bartenders and staff around the pool area.

Overall had a great experience. This is my second time visiting and I would definitely visit again. The food is relatively good (except for the Italian food), the entire property is clean and all the staff is very friendly and helpful. We had an issue with our first room shower so they had to put us in another room, but I’d say that was the only issue we ran into while visiting. I love that you can access the sister hotel next door which has a rooftop adult only pool overlooking the beach.

This was our 2nd time visiting The Hacienda at Krystal Grand in PV, MX. The staff is amazing from the entry area, specially Jesus, that gives you a warm welcome, to the pool bar area. Brandon at the pool bar also granted us a home feeling with great knowledge of the drinks. At the pool area, Carlos and Cesar made our pool enjoyment as if we were in our own house. The restaurants could improve in the food offered although the service of the waiters, Ivan and Cristian was exceptional. They were great going between tables and treating all guests with the same service. I will definitely return to The Hacienda in the future.
