Your description of Casa Que Canta convinced us that this is for us. Confirmed for Feb, 2020. Deluxe Suite. We are also excited about non stops via Alaska Air from LAX. Easy trip. Appreciate your sharing your photos and impressions. Definitely decided that the glam of Punta Mita was not for us. This is definitely more our style.

Hello, has anybody tried timeshare vacation packages in Cancun here? We're eyeing a vacation later this year and were given the suggestion to look them up by an acquaintance. Came across this with a brief description for Cancun properties, some of which were unnamed. I'm also looking for other references in the meantime. Would you recommend it or is it too good to be true? Forgive me for being a such a newbie but just unsure I've grasped the idea.

Solaz, a Luxury Collection Resort, Los Cabos, Mexico [Master Thread]
Entry level superior rooms are 65 square meters. Pretty nice.

The part that faces the Corridor is not very attractive to say the least, but the interior looks nice in a very modern way. It might be worth giving it a try.

I know it is not right to say Hilton in a lux travel forum but the new Hilton Guadalajara Midtown is very good. It only opened last year and I now use this as my go to in GDL. It has a rooftop pool and bar, large and modern rooms and I love it how there is a very good shopping centre and movie theatre adjoining. Like the Casa Fayette you will need to get an Uber to get around and into Downtown. The cons - no minibar and I find this problematic when I am on a late flight in and want something to drink and can only order off overnight room service menu (in saying this there is an Oxxo next door).
Have yet to try the Intercontinental, Westin etc. I tried to book the Hotel Demetria once but gave up with all the website problems and their phones being down when I tried to call.
