No title - expert review The architectural idea was an awesome pyramid in the jungle, but this massive box of brown stone looks more like the world's best-located maximum-security prison. Hallways are dark, color schemes are strange - dig the hot pink walls and purple shag carpet in the lobby bar - and people seem to be wai... fodors.com
No title - expert review Set above the high-rise hotels of Ixtapa on its own rocky promontory, Las Brisas is the most stunning of Ixtapa's hotels, and the most noted for gracious service.

1st Time to Ixtapa - user review Recently spent 8 days at Las Brisas and would definitely consider staying there again. This location, especially the beach, was great as its off the beaten path.

Relaxing private site - user review The hotel is professionally managed and well maintained. Our reservation was exactly as we asked and ready when we arrived.

Very Relaxing - user review The hotel staff was great. They were all very helpful and friendly. The beach area is terrific.

We are used to spending a lot of $ on v... expedia.com

Fantastic Hotel Staff - user review This hotel has the best staff we've ever encountered in the 13 years we've traveled to Mexico.

Relaxing Get Away - user review Very quiet and relaxing hotel. Highly recommend staying on the Beach Club level for the benefits of breakfast, happy hour & updated rooms.
