When describing our stay and considering a rating for the am Hotel and Plaza, one needs to consider the context of both.
So here it goes.
We have traditionally visited the CanCun area of Mexico. Puerto Morelos specifically. 25 years ago PM was an idyllic little fishing village. Quaint. Friendly. Non commercial. Layed back. Exactly what we needed it to be.
No more.
Hence our venture into Huatulco.
We are searching and lamenting for what PM used to be.
The am Hotel Plaza is a welcome step towards that.
It is located close to the airport and all amenities. Walking distance from anything you could need.
The location can be a tad noisy from highway traffic but it didn’t bother us. We enjoyed our days slept well at night.
The rooms are clean and well maintained. We had 2 queen size beds, a wall mounted tv. The closet is very small, but we made it work.
The bed linens are fresh and clean. No sad or negative surprises.
Don’t expect to find hair dryers, irons etc in your room, but everything we requested from the front desk was promptly supplied.
The pool is small but adequate. We enjoyed it and the lounge chairs.
The staff are beyond excellent and provide everything they can within the limitations of reason and the latitude management provides.
English is not predominant.
Remember,..this is a simpler part of Mexico, so come in with the expectation of simpler ways and you’ll be very happy.
If you need bell hops, a huge pool, recreational activities and staff fluent in English,….perhaps you should be at an all-inclusive.
So with the above considerations I give the am Hotel and Plaza 5 stars,….but one must understand this is not yet a 5 star community. I hope it never is.
So 5 stars for a venue located in a 3 star part of Mexico.
