In addition to Cancun, Riviera Maya and Cozumel in the Mexican Caribbean, El Cid also has resorts in Mazatlán, Mexico.

Mazatlán is a city located on Mexico's Pacific side and boasts a long boardwalk along the coastline. The 12 miles of gorgeous beach is what led this destination to be called the "Pearl of the Pacific." Along with relaxing on the beach and exploring the local markets, cafes, architecture and churches, this destination is also great for fishing.

To top it all off, Mazatlán boasts some of the most breathtaking sunsets over the Pacific Ocean. It's a destination for both family fun and romantic retreats, and El Cid Resorts can make a trip to this special place even more memorable with a stay at one of its four properties.

The 500-room, oceanfront El Cid Castilla Beach Hotel is a great resort for family fun in the sun with activities for all age groups. There are watersports such as kayaking or boogie boarding available, pool activities, swim up bar and plenty of evening entertainment. A Kids Club is also located on property, and it offers snorkeling lessons, cooking classes, Mexican games and more.

About a mile north, El Cid Marina Beach Hotel offers a more intimate experience with only 200 rooms. Yet the property provides just as much fun with two pools, a jacuzzi and non-motorized watersports. The La Marina restaurant offers stunning views overlooking the marina and ocean.

El Cid El Moro Beach Hotel is a beachfront tower with 390 rooms. The tall building allows visitors to take in amazing views without even leaving their rooms. From watersports to delicious food and drinks, this resort is great for both families and couples.

Although golf is accessible with a stay at any of the El Cid properties in Mazatlán, El Cid Granada & Country Club is a golfer's dream as sports enthusiasts can enjoy world-class golf and tennis as well. This quaint property offers a relaxing vibe away from the busyness, but it also has a sky bridge linking up with El Cid Castilla Beach Hotel, so guests can conveniently enjoy the restaurants, beach and pools there when on the all-inclusive plan.

The charming city of Mazatlán offers guests countless views to take in being both oceanfront and located at the base of the Sierra Mountains, and the El Cid Resorts can ensure a stay to this area is one that will be remembered year after year.
