Starting with the ONLY positive experience of out stay, our room 735 oceanfront was nice. But on our 2nd day, We were locked out of the room for about 5 hours. The door lock malfunctionrd and we could not get access to our room to wash up for dinner or access our safe for cash to go out to eat. No apology given. We stayed for 3 days. Next issue was the horrible food. The only protein offered were eggs beans chicken pork and some fish. Very poor tasting almost inedible. Beef was never served at any meal. There were a variety of vegetables offered but mostly mushed bland tasting. There is no cheese boards or fruit and nuts available. Fruits served were a mixture of papaya and pineapple chunks. Only 2 kinds of beer served. I think it was Tecate. You only had 2 options, light or dark beer. I have never been to a "resort" with only 2 beer options. All on tap served in small plastic cups. There are cocktails served. Some are good. Bartenders did their best to keep up with the crowd. Wait time IN LINE for a drink was about 10 minutes. There is no table service or beach service. Horrible experience. The beach was nice but not swimmable. Red flag was up all during our stay. So that left the 3 overcrowded swimming pools. Saturday was by far the worst day at the Fontan. There were many group tour busses on the premises adding to the turmoil. I will never visit Fontan again. And maybe just avoid the whole area completely. I've traveled to quite a few resorts and never had such a bad stay

Algunas personas del staff fueron groseros, se nos dijo que no podíamos tener camastros se nos removió nuestras cosas zapatos, toallas pero a otras personas si se les dejó tener camastro con sus propiedades, es decir que si me meto a la playa y dejo mis pertenencias alguien ma s puede llegar y quitarlas y el salvavidas permitirles que tomen nuestro lugar. Se sintió que no fuimos recibidos de buena manera como anteriormente, nos encantaba el hotel pero al ver ese trato creo que ya no sentimos lo mismo por volver hospedarnos.

1st time at Fontain and 3rd in Ixtapa. We were not expecting to be the only English guests at resort. Not many staff who apoke Engliah either. Very good local food but very local menu. Good immersion that might not be for everyone. Clean resort with great access to best beach imaginable.

This ocassion I was tterrible dissapointed, I notice that the Hotel did not care about customers anymore, Just MONEY MONEY FOR EVERYTHING. I rented Oceanview in the app, and when I arrived the charge extra for Oceanview, the room was no clean the floor were full of constuction dust, The room beside us was in construccione making contanst noise, and the staff was no friendly sometimes. pool were oversaturated, they look extreme full, Staff at the restaurant were rude. They did not have not sugar drinks, and I think it is the last time I stay here.

Think it will be our last visit
Bed was pretty good Could have used a couple more pillows. The food ok. It's irritating when you stand in line for a beer for 15.20 minutes and people with a black bracelet just walks right up and gets served. After check out we wanted to sit in the lobby for an hour. Because of the noise ( bus loads of people leaving, music blaring out front and a chick on a mega phone, which must be part of their promotion geared towards the tours they're bringing in, we ended up just leaving and stood around in the airport. It was our 5th visit and we don't think we'll be back.

Yuri Prada the front desk supervisor was very rude so unprofessional. I wanted to exchange currency and they kept saying to come back at a certain time when I did they came up with all kind of excuses…very inconvenient for us that we didn’t know the area around. Will never go back. Not recommended for tourists who do not speak spanish.

Hicieron de mis vacaciones una experiencia horrible ya que yo lleve a mis dos niños de vacaciones y en el area de la alberca se pasaron llamandome la atención por que el bebé no podia estar, no lo podia acostar, que no deberiamos tener, que no debe de gatear lo tuve que tener en los brazos todo el tiempo o estar en mi habitación ya que las instalaciones no cuentan ni con ábanicos y el calor en los restaurantes, lobby, bar son insoportables, las habitaciones estan muy limpias pero huelen a drenaje, siempre largas filas para todo, y super saturado el hotel. Para ser mi primera experiencia en este hotel no volveria a hospedarme.

Las instalaciones del hotel muy bien, el trato de las recepcionistas espantoso, en el area de la alberca nos trataron muy mal tienen reglas y solo te estan llamando la atención por cualquier cosa y te lo dicen en muy mala forma. Saturan el hotel con gente al grado de que no comes ni tu estancia es comóda, las opciones del buffet no es muy variable y nunca hay nada gracias a que es un gentio. Las habitaciones muy limpias pero siempre huelen a drenaje especialmente en el baño y huele super fuerte. En lo particular siento que si aceptaran menos gente sus servicios serian mejores ya que nunca habia camastros ni en la playa ni en el area de la alberca, ni en el bar habia espacio para estar ahi, largas filas para la comida y desayuno, los elevadores nunca libres y solo funcionaba uno. En mi experiencia no vuelvo a hospedarme en este hotel.
