Incredible luxury resort, easily one of my all time favorite places I’ve ever stayed. From the superior design details and landscaping to the top of the line service given by all employees, this property sets itself apart from other high end resorts. The location, being on Santa Maria Bay is certainly one the biggest draws- a stunning clear water beach and place to snorkel and watch yachts come and go. View from our “Coastal View” room was spectacular and blew us away. Room was well appointed. The only downside was the endless drilling noises and construction happening on both sides of the resort. Every video I took at the Montage, you can hear just how loud the work was. We only stayed two nights, but during dinner time the noise did stop, however, hanging at the pool or beach it was just incessant noise. This is no fault of the Montage, and I do think they aided in a good experience by periodically providing fun delicious treats to the clientele— complimentary pastry for breakfast at Mescal, paletas at the pool around 4pm and we received mini carajillos at Mezcal during dinner— much appreciated! Food at the property was fairly good, just a little uninspired. Definitely try the fish tacos at the pool. Cantaloupe Gazpacho &the Whole Fish dish at Marea. At Mescal they have amazing corn bread smoked butter & try the Cafe De Olla dessert.
