Mazatlán is known for its beaches and entertainment, and entices visitors with its popular attractions, including Teodoro Mariscal Stadium and Mazatlán Aquarium.
When the beach is calling your name, you might want to head down to Olas Altas Beach, located 3.8 mi (6.1 km) from central Mazatlán. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Los Pinos Beach located nearby.
Plaza Machado is worth passing through for a few pics when in Centro Historico. Hotels.com travellers also say the area is relaxing and that it has lots of nice beaches.
Why not spend a care-free afternoon at Cerritos Beach during your travels in Marina Mazatlan? Make some time to visit the shops while you're in the area.
Explore the great outdoors at El Mirador, a lovely green space in Mazatlán. Stroll along the seaside or experience the entertainment choices in this relaxing area.

"Let me start by saying the service is top notch. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location with beach access is great.
Where it fell short for me was the “all-inclusive” aspect. When you hear that, you expect to be able to order freely from the menu, but in reality the options are limited to specific items. On top of that, the drinks were disappointing. Cocktails felt watered down, and even something as simple as a chocolate milk for my son tasted diluted. If you want a better-quality liquor, like Don Julio, you have to pay extra, around $7 per drink.
The rooms themselves were fine, but the beds were a letdown. For a higher-tier resort, I expected better comfort. The mattresses were very firm, and the small pillows weren’t comfortable to sleep on.
Another thing I noticed is that upon arrival, there weren’t basic amenities you usually expect, like bottled water or coffee in the room.
Overall, it’s a good hotel with great service and location, but they need to improve the drink quality, expand the menu options, and pay more attention to comfort and accuracy in their listings. Some of the restaurants listed are actually offsite, and a few of the photos online don’t match the real setup, like Cilantros, which is enclosed rather than open-air as shown.

FALTA ORGANIZACION PARA EL INGRESO A RESTAURANTES (QUIZAS FALLO POR SER TEMPORADA ALTA)"

"Great staff - kind and helpful; food service and quality and variety all amazing - portions in a la carte restaurants seemed small; limited access/cannot swim near resort even though ocean front - rip tides too powerful/swimming prohibited; tiny hot tub (and not hot); pedicure staff so nice but actual pedicure results were disappointing (and expensive)"
