I absolutely love this hotel and will be coming back! Although it seems far from the main walkway it's really not you can take a combi (taxi van) for 10 pesos a person. I love how the hotel is very family friendly, has many pools, and you can swim on the ocean water. My only con is how bad the restaurant is and for the price it's not worth it. Not only that but the staff just stood there and stared at myself and my father eat. Instead I suggest leaving the hotel and eating at the restaurant near the tortilla shop. It's very inexpensive and delicious!

Stay away from this hotel. We were doing a family reunion with about 18 adults and kids and rented the suites with ocean view and bought the American breakfast package for all 6 rooms. At breakfast time my husband found a tiny cockroach in his fruit plate, my cousin found another tiny cockroach in her napkin with utensils and my brother-in-law found a medium size cockroach walking on the table near his plate. When we complained about all the cockroaches on our table they said to compensate us they wouldn’t charge us for the fruit we all ordered since our breakfast package included either fruit or juice and we all had fruit and juice. We went to reception to complain about our experience and right there in the floor we found a huge dead cockroach and they said that they couldn’t do anything else to compensate us because they already gave us free fruit, which was contaminated with cockroaches. I wish I could have my money back and the health department would close down their restaurant. I have stayed at better places for about the same prices or even cheaper.

Ants in room, low water pressure in shower, not enough blankets. You get what you pay for.

I am very annoyed with this hotel, first nothing is the same as the photos, the pools are very dirty, according to they offer a slide on the site and it is always closed besides that throughout the hotel there are no lifeguards the rooms are very small if you ask for extra towels They deny you there are no irons in the rooms and since you arrive in the room there are many ants the service is bad and be careful because when you check out they do not let you go until they check your room and look for a way to charge you extra for everything if you dirty the towels

Not sure what the picture represents, but there was no slide at the Alba Suites. There was barely running water. The beds had concrete pedestals (yes like prison). The refrigerator was a defrosted mess and wouldn't work until after maintenance came in. Just a sad, dilapidated mess for which we paid a premium. So dissappointed.

MUY BUEN SERVICIO, LO ÚNICO QUE NO ME GUSTÓ FUE QUE EL CONTROL DE LA TELEVISIÓN NO FUNCIONÓ Y HASTA LA ULTIMA NOCHE DESPUÉS DE TANTO REPORTAR TAL SITUACIÓN, NOS CAMBIARON LA TELEVISIÓN COMPLETA.

The swimming pool is too crowded. Room next door is having a very loud music until the wee hours. Good for if you wanna party the whole night but not with little kids in tow. The beach is not nice. Not for little kids. The room have an unpleasant smell. We arrive at 6 pm and check out right away the following morning. We didn’t enjoy too much crowd

The staff was friendly but their English limited at the reception area. We were showed to our accommodation promptly The hotel is older and there was more stairs than we expected to access our edifice. The edifice elevator was not always cooperating. The room was clean, good size fridge, there was a beautiful breeze on the balcony. We also had a nice view of the city. It was quiet. The bus service to the Caleta beach and shopping area was really appreciated. They have a lot of long term, friendly, Canadian guests and they guided us around. We had a relaxing week at Alba suites, the pools were clean and enjoyable. The pool chairs comfortable. Their convenience store was really handy.

A humble hotel near old town center, 1 block up the hill from ACA Yacht Club (north bay). Our Beach Club room was a long walk from Reception but the view from our balcony more than made up for it! Skip the hotel restaurant... Public beach is a short walk, (2) OXXO stores nearby, several local places for very casual eats, and a good hair salon next door. We're glad we had a kitchenette, for breakfast & snacks. We'll go back if we are in ACA again. NOTE: TAXIS DON'T HAVE METERS!!! Ask driver for rate before closing the door...

The pictures on the site did not lie. My confirmation had “breakfast included." They fought me on giving me the vouchers. I went to the front desk around 8am, they told me they would call me back when the manager would arrive. By 9:30 I hadn't received a call, so i went back to the front desk which was quite a walk as the property has 7 or 8 buildings with a lot of steps and ramps. They made me have a seat, and 15 mins later, they gave me the vouchers. The rooms come with a kitchenette however you have to go pick up the kitchen items at a separate building. When we tried to return the items upon checkout, they tried to charge us for items that were not listed on our receipt. Police were everywhere in full uniform carrying their large weapons. They took up all the parking, with the hotel calling my room at 2 in the morning saying i had to move my car because i wasn't allowed to park there! Also, they say they offer free wi-fi, it’s not strong enough to do anything with! We were at the pool and when we arrived back in our rooms, several items had been stolen. Treated very poorly, told by a night manager that he didn't care and that it was our fault for leaving it in the room. Our time was wasted dealing with an incompetent night manager. We returned the next two mornings, nothing solved. Alba suites had the facilities to be great, but failed miserably on service and hospitality. Also, the staff did not know English. Very disappointed.

Don't expect to be right on the beach when you leave the hotel. If you can handle walking 5 mn and take a bus then you are at the right place. It is really worth doing that and avoiding paying $$$ to be on the beach (where you end up anyway). It is clean, people are nice, and the view is great.
