It’s my first time in Huatulco, and I’m absolutely loving my week at this cozy and beautiful resort. Binniguenda Hotel is truly enchanting, with stunning scenery and lovely walking paths. The beach club is fantastic, offering breathtaking views of Santa Cruz beach, perfect for sipping drinks by the pool! The service has been exceptional, the entertainment delightful, and the food delicious. Although the hotel property is small, it's beautifully landscaped. The ocean is so warm that people stay in it until 10 PM—how impressive is that? The hotel’s location is fantastic—just a short walk into town, proximity to various beaches, and the marina is conveniently located just up the street! I would definitely come back to this hotel!

“Grate experience”

The place was pretty awesome as a whole, I stayed at this all-inclusive hotel. It was pretty good, but the highlight was a young woman named Areli who always greeted me with a big smile and was happy to help. Overall, it was a good experience.i would definitely stay at this hotel again.

“An excellent choice if you understand what type of all-inclusive this is”

We had a wonderful time at the Binniguenda. I have read a few of the bad reviews about this hotel, and they are not completely wrong, but they do not capture the essence of this hotel and how it would relate to most guests.

We had a wonderful time at the Binniguenda. I have read a few of the bad reviews about this hotel, and they are not completely wrong, but they do not capture the essence of this hotel and how it would relate to most guests. The hotel itself is beautifully kept and very comfortable. We have stayed at resorts in hot climates that had inferior air conditioners; not at the Binniguenda. They provide a super-charged monster that can make the room ice cold in a matter of minutes, despite the very hot temperatures outside. The air conditioning also has sensitive controls so you can get a perfect temperature. The beds are excellent. The beach club is fun, and a has a great view of the Santa Cruz beach from which to sip drinks and enjoy the pool. While the buffet is not great, we enjoyed the food and the drinks flow freely. Italian night is best. As many have mentioned, the staff at this hotel are exceptional. The show was surprisingly fun with a young cast that buys into it. There are a lot of kids, but that did not bother us because we like children and the joy they have. You just have to understand that you have a somewhat regimented day consisting of breakfast, beach club, and then cocktails, buffet dinner, and show that we liked but is not Vegas standard. I think this is a great way to enjoy the beauty of Huatulco in a relaxing way for a few days without breaking the bank. It is not the same thing as a Secrets or Dreams, you have to understand that. It is its own thing, and we enjoyed it very much.

“Great three weeks spent here!”

My husband and I really enjoyed this hotel.

My husband and I really enjoyed this hotel. It is small but charming and you are easily able to walk to all areas of the hotel - including the beach club, which is about a 10 minute walk away (or you can go by shuttle every half hour). The pool at the hotel is very quiet, especially in the afternoon when most people gravitate to the beach club, and we enjoyed its serenity (when we didn’t go to the beach club ourselves). There is no need to save chairs at this hotel, there are always plenty of comfortable loungers in shade or sun - at the hotel or at the beach club. Oddly, the music played daily by the hotel pool was old classics by the ‘rat pack’ and it was interesting listening to ‘I’m dreaming of a White Christmas’ in February! The same music selection was played daily by the pool but we didn’t mind - a bit quirky, but we still enjoyed it. The beach club is truly beautiful! The view from the infinity pool over the ocean is stunning and the servers there were always friendly and provided great service. The food was definitely repetitive (mind you, we stayed for three weeks) - but we could always find something that would satisfy us. The breakfasts were delicious, lunches were good and dinners …okay. It would be nice if there was a larger lunch menu option at the hotel pool - it basically only offered chicken wings, hamburger, French fries and soup - otherwise you had to go to the beach club for the buffet there. We did not enjoy the red wine and bought our own bottles of wine from the little Italian chaucuterie store across the street because the house wine disappointed. The cocktails were definitely watered down and extremely weak, despite the long pours straight out of a liquor bottle. I have to admit that the cocktails and wine disappointed. The bed was extremely comfortable, the shower always had hot water (morning or night), and the air conditioning in the room worked flawlessly to keep us at a comfortable temperature with little noise. Our room overlooked the main restaurant where they had evening shows nightly. These shows were excellent and showcased incredible talent! We worried that we would be kept up by noise from the shows due to our room proximity but the shows ended by 10:30ish and then it was completely quiet. Wi-Fi in our room was really weak but we could get a strong signal from the buffet restaurant or at the beach club, so we managed okay. We enjoyed the ability to refill our own water bottles from the water machine in our hallway as the temperature was consistently hot and we wanted to stay well hydrated. We would return to this hotel because, despite a few drawbacks, we really enjoyed our three week stay and we don’t often want to return anywhere! The hotel’s location is awesome - an easy walk into town - a close taxi ride to many different beaches - and the marina is just up the street (here you can book various excursions). This small hotel is really charming and the landscape and walking paths are really beautiful!
