chinita415 Posted April 10, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Does anyone know which resort Princess normally use for the beach resort/shopping excursion in Mazatlan? We are going on the Royal next week. Figured out the Cabo resort with photos but none for the Mazatlan one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF-1 Posted April 10, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) Is it not listed in your cruise personalizer under shore excursion list? Edited April 10, 2019 by AF-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollexx1910 Posted April 10, 2019 #3 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Didn’t catch the name but we did this excursion last week. Had a great time. Nice pool, open bar, great service. I wasn’t too impressed with the lunch provided but then again, I’m a picky eater. Others enjoyed it. We did have to leave the lounge chairs on the beach though, you can only say “ no thank you” so many times to the many vendors walking the line in front of you.

Do you remember if it was just a regular pool? I have a 16 months old daughter. We will bring her floatie. Were there enough loungers? Did you do the excursion with shopping first? Did you take any photos? Maybe folks can ID it based on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they do this on purpose so they can change up if needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a water slide at one end. About 3 feet on other side of bridge. Seats in water by bar. Plenty of lounge chairs. They took us to shopping area first then to resort.

chinita415 Posted April 10, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted April 10, 2019 a few more questions Rollexx... Was there any sitting area at the shopping area? Trying to decide if we need to bring the wheelchair for my mother in law. Also, what type of vehicle from cruise port (van or large coach)?

Rollexx1910 Posted April 10, 2019 #12 Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) It was a large coach. They dropped us off in front of a very nice, rather upscale Silver jewelry store where we were to meet back at in about an hour and a half. The store had seating inside and complementary water. Didn’t notice many places to sit while walking in town though other than the restaurants and bars. I should mention.. they do not drop you off right by the ship where you got on. They drop you off just at the edge of the port and you have to walk thru another shopping area and then get on a trolly that will take you back to ship. Not that far though.

cindy robinson Posted April 10, 2019 #14 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Just take a taxi to Royal Villas or Costa de oro. Both have nice pools and are happy to take your money for drinks and eats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinita415 Posted April 26, 2019 Author #16 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Just want to report back we had a lovely day last week. The tour guide took us to the Golden Zone (Av. Playa Gaviotas by Hotel Plaza Mazatlan) for shopping. Then to the Luna Palace. When we got there, plenty of deck chairs and service was EXCELLENT. We were right by the wall above the palapas. Bought stuff from vendors below (beach cover, mangos) but were not hassled. The later group that arrived though didn't seem to all get loungers and sat at tables outside the buffet. We had a good time and it was exactly what I was looking for this time. Hope to come back in the future to explore the city. !Gracias, y que le vaya bien!
