Popular Pool Area

Ready to Renovate
The rooms at Krystal Ixtapa appear ready for remodeling and upgrading. Guests say they feel too 1960s and 70s. In addition, visitors noticed that many public areas, like the billiard tables, show moderate wear and tear, while the pool area needs updates and cosmetic attention.

Mild Inconvenience
Guests found it inconvenient and too much effort that you need you request hair dryers from the front desk, and need to rent towels with a card.
