    Again, Fabulous!!

    We returned to this place after just 7 months and it did not disappoint!! The slides were working everyday (prior complaint of ours was that they weren't operational everyday due to maintenance). The "Corezone" area was now open to kids of all ages and our kids loved it!!!! I was personally sad to see that Enrique was no longer working in the pool area as he was the HIGHLIGHT last year!!! I asked around and was told that he was now at the World Cafe. The next morning, we went to the World Cafe and saw Enrique. As soon as he saw me, he remembered my drink from the pool area the previous year!!!!!!! Needless to say, my family (kids included), love Enrique! I mentioned to him my love for the bread pudding and he brought out Chef Christian to talk about the ingredients and discuss how it was made. The food at World Cafe is unbelievable for breakfast and make sure to wait for the egg station. Shout out to Sandra there. Also, a shout out to Karely-Yunue as the hostess and Arturo. Oceania, overall, has the best food at this resort, hands down!! The fish is fresh and the food is delicious!!! We would definitely stay here again!!!!

    Great Experience All Around

    We spent one week at the Dreams Resort in Mazatlán with our family. We had two adults and four children. The food was excellent and there was no waiting in line at any of the restaurants which was nice. This resort doesn’t allow you to “save” pool side chairs in the morning, you have to stay with them or they will pile your belongings and remove the towels which is a way better way to do it. It saves you from having others take chairs and never use them. There were spots on and off all day long. A couple shout outs to the activities workers, Antonio Morales for always making beach volleyball a great time, and Gill for having karaoke and making a second night of karaoke, that was not originally scheduled, because it was so popular!!! Another shout out to one of the best servers poolside, Giovanni, he was always attentive and friendly each day we talked to him. Lastly a shout out to Omar, the swim up bar bartender who was the best ever. He was in Mazatlan only temporarily because they needed the week covered and that was definitely our gain. He generally works at the Dreams resort in Punta de Mita and we will definitely try to make it there next. The Dreams is lucky to have all of these individuals working for them.

    Great time!

    Great, all inclusive resort! Be sure to eat at Merkai and ask for Hiram – best service I’ve ever had! Also, if you are a Preferred Club member, the interior preferred club bar is amazing. Santiago, the bartender has showman skills! The food, drinks, and service were all top-notch. We will definitely be back!

    Great experience

    We had a fantastic stay at Dreams Estrella Del Mar Mazatlán! From the moment we arrived, the check-in process as a Globalist was smooth and welcoming — The staff (Neyra) made us feel extra special as a Globalist. The Preferred Club Lounge was a standout highlight. Not only was the atmosphere relaxing and upscale, but it also featured some of the best drinks. The bartender there was top-notch — friendly, professional, and made some incredible cocktails that really elevated the experience. We had the best server at the outdoor restaurant, Lucero. She took exceptional care of us and made sure my two kids got everything they wanted and more. Our room was brand new, beautifully designed, and featured a stunning oceanfront view. Waking up to the sight and sound of the Pacific was the perfect start to each day. Everything felt fresh, clean, and well thought out for comfort and luxury. This resort truly exceeded expectations, and we can’t wait to return! ⸻ Let me know if you’d like to add anything about the amenities, food options, or how the family enjoyed it!
