To be clear, this is a review of the Pool area - not the hotel rooms. We have been gong to Destino Pacha for the day - once or twice a year - for many years and have always really enjoyed it. There has been a recent refit of the pool area and, as a part of this, the sunbeds are now smaller - and more of them packed in - so the area now feels intensively developed, and therefore less exclusive. Also (at least on the day we were there, a Tuesday) the music, - which used to start off quite laid back and with a great vibe earlier in the day; and then get progressively more intense & louder as the afternoon wore on - was played at a very high volume straight away; to the point where we could not speak to each other without almost shouting, it was very intrusive. The DJ is now positioned on a pedestal in the middle of the pool and she was clearly having a great time; but it all appeared to be more about her than the guests, if that makes sense. I would say the vibe they were aiming at was more like one of the beach clubs at San Antionio like "O Beach", rather than the sophiscated & refined atmosphere we have previously experienced at Destino Pacha. One of our party said it reminded him of Las Vegas. I appreciate this is all subjective opinion and if you like the idea of what I have described above then you will probably have a great time; the view is terrific and the pool itself nice; but after perhaps 15 visits over the last 10 years we will not be rushing back to Destino Pacha resort. We do feel that since Pacha group was sold back in (2017?) it has slowly become less special and more comercialised, which is a shame. For the record, 4 of us paid 900 Euros for (from memory, so I am not saying this is totally accurate) 4 bottles of rose, 1 coffee, water, 1 portion sushi & 1 portion tortilla chips/quacamole and a fruit smoothie. Prices have gone up quite a bit from last year. I mention this last because price is not our first consideration, rather the experience we have. On this occasion, not special.
