“Casa Condesa--A Real Find”

Casa Condesa

5 of 5 stars
Brooklyn,New York
Apr 27, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

My stay in Acapulco didn't start well--an upset stomach,general exhaustion and having to drag my luggage up a street being repaved and then landing at a rather ordinary doorway didn't bode well. But all that changed as I climbed the stairs and arrived in a beautifully landscaped tropical pool area surrounded by some comfortable places to lounge around both outside and inside the casa and on 2 different levels. A nap in a comfortable bed in a spacious air conditioned room,a welcome drink and a few hours lolling around the pool did wonders for me. I travel a lot and have been in Acapulco twice before. I usually tend not to spend too much time in the place where I stay. However, this time I found myself really wanting to hang around the casa. Each day started with a delicious breafast cooked especially for me--my choice of omelets,pancakes,pan dulce,fresh fruit salad--served when i wanted it. Then some lounging on a float in the pool. I never seemed to make it to the nearby beach before noon. After a hard afternoon at the beach,nothing beat another relaxing swim in the pool before dinner. Acapulco has plenty of good restaurants,but after being in Mexico for 3 weeks,the chance to have a homecooked meal seemed like a welcome change. And it was--so much so that I ate there every night. Roy,Casa Condesa's friendly and helpful manager,originally from Texas, knows his way around the kitchen , whipping up some American Southern specialities like smothered steak. You sure won't go hungry here and the price is a lot better than at most of the restaurants. And the nighttime ambiance of the Casa beats most restaurants hands down. What else did I like about Casa Condessa--everything ,but special praise goes to the attentive and caring staff ,including a masseur named Aldo, James, the sociable owner,who has decorated the casa in an eccletic and tasteful style and Roy,the manager, and his 3 lovable puppies, who make this place seem like a real home away from home.My 4 day stay flew by, but Casa Condesa will definitely be my choice next time I'm in Acapulco.

“Pampered Guest WILL Be Back”

Casa Condesa

5 of 5 stars
San Antonio

1/1 found this review helpful

My ship ported for an all day exploration of Acapulco, departing @ 100am the following morning. I had planned to spend the day @ Betos and Condessa beach, (in mind from a week-long visit in 1990), shower, change clothes and go out for the nightlife. However, from the moment I arrived, hospitality relentlessly surpassed my expectations; treated like family and charmed into such a grand experience that I never did leave!!

Beautiful, clean, multi-level open-air bungalow style rooms gave me the feeling I was in a huge "tree house". Views are striking and gentle breezes keep you comfortable mountainside, just above the bay drag.

My hosts, James & Aldo, left a lasting impression; kept me well drank and fed fabulous dinner(made from scratch).

Aldo will impress the most seasoned in massage. His spirit blends with a symphony of techniques composed from around the world.

“Gay Paradise”

Casa Condesa

5 of 5 stars
California
Feb 19, 2008
1/2 found this review helpful

After having been to almost every country in Western and Esastern Europe , 5 countries in Asia, 4 in South America , Canada the US and 4 states in Mexico; finally I found paradise! Casa Condesa is managed by the most caring and charming host. All the attendants are extremely helpful and ready to serve. The answer to any request is alway YES! The facility is gorgeous. Very unique arquitecture, sorrounded by lots of green, the ocean view from the terrace is spectacular, especially during sunset. The breakfast is served whenever you are ready to have your first meal and it is delicious! The atmosphere is very friendly and relaxed, the background music is soothing and creates an atmosphere that swept me off my feet.
Dinner is a great time to meet the other guests and share experiences. From the moment I arrived at Casa Condesa, I felt home. In one week I made more friends and shared more with other gay guys than in 10 years in Los Angeles, CA. After writing this review I realize that my comments are unfair because there are no words to really describe the awsome experienced at Casa Condesa. Thank you Madam James and beautiful Ms. Cupcake.

“Must be experienced”

Casa Condesa

Dec 15, 2007
3/4 found this review helpful

I`ve been to Casa Condesa 5 times and it`s definately my favorite gay spot in all of Mexico.
The place is very informal and laid back and the staff makes you feel at home right away. It`s close to the gay beach and bar`s. In fact, i rarely use a taxi when at the Casa .
They serve breakfast whenever you want till 1pm. The guests can also have dinner with the owner Jamie (originaly from Dallas, who opened the place 10 year ago) and the general manager Bernado (a fairly affluent mexican who knows acapulco inside out). Both are very friendly, personnable and interesting. Dinnertime is also a privilleged moment to get to know the other guests, share experiences of the day and hopes of the evening and night to come.
A very unique place that must be experienced.

“An absolute gem in Acapulco!”

Casa Condesa

Dec 12, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

From my first contact with James (the owner) when I was inquiring about rates and availability, right to the moment he dropped me off at the airport, he was warm and welcoming.

The Casa Condesa provides a very unique experience! You enter through a small door off the street and then up the stairs to a lush tropical garden and pool area. James introduced me to the other guests and offered me a welcome cold beer. Bernado (the General Manager) is very welcoming and available to answer questions. Staying at Casa Condesa is more like staying in a friend’s house than staying in a hotel. Ira cooks a great breakfast, James and Bernado cook a wonderful dinner each night. Dinner is served under the thatched roof on the balcony overlooking Acapulco. James and Bernado genuinely enjoy getting to know you. They also have great stories about Acapulco!

My room was well appointed with king bed (very comfortable), air conditioning, cable TV, and DVD.

Casa Condesa is very well located. Just a few blocks away from the gay beach, great restaurants, shopping mall, and gay clubs. James and Bernado will definitely give you the must do’s in Acapulco.

I am already looking forward to my next stay at Casa Condesa.
