This resort was booked all inclusive, but is not an inclusive hotel. Looks nothing like the photos advertised on Expedia. I’m pretty sure the advertised ad on Expedia is the delta resort not the Matlali. I’ve been looking for away to contact Expedia to explain my concerns, but haven’t heard back. Matlali resort on Expedia is not correctly advertised, photos and all advertising is not the same resort.

Everything looked fine until I entered the small bedroom and the sofa was dirty and stained everywhere. The sheets on the sofa bed was also stained. The elevator broke down and we were stuck there until I forced the door open to get out. My daughter got scared and wouldn’t use the elevator for the rest of the stay.

Upside: great value! Good pools, decent breakfast buffet, very friendly staff, clean rooms, nice views of the Bahía. Downsides: location is up on the hillside and requires transport down to the beach and there are only 3 specific times you can do that every day. Clearly you his places has had it’s day and the investors aren’t interested in putting money back into maintenance of the place. They do however make sure the guys with the leaf blowers are out every morning at 7:30am! Less leaf blowing, more replacing tiles and pool umbrellas please! Overall it’s a really great value tho! We had a good stay!

The room was clean and comfortable, which I appreciated. However, the pool was a little dirty upon arrival. Also, be aware that you must check out on time and return all keys and if you don’t, they will charge you for an extra day. While waiting in line, I saw a family get charged an additional day because they didn’t return the keys on time. Overall, the stay was decent, but clearer communication and better pool maintenance would improve the experience.
