Very nice place by the lake. On site restaurant is good and convenient but you really should go out and explore. There are couple billiards tables by the lobby and there are some pickleball courts on the property as well. Staff was very friendly especially the manager in the Sunday buffet.

I liked this hotel. The scenery of the lake and swimming pools/outdoor areas are spectacular and the meals are first class. Very much an upscale setting and worthy of a corporate event. The staff was very friendly and super accommodating for a couple of changes I needed. The hotel is very well kept for an older-style hotel. Only one complaint: I like a hard mattress, but my bed felt like a rock. I mean, the absolute hardest mattress I have ever slept on.

Stayed for 2 nights as part of a longer vacation in Mexico. The resort is nice but could use a refresh - it’s a bit dated. It is in a beautiful area and has a great view of Lake Chapala.
