About this property

Welcome to Sun Beach

Sun Beach is a 4.5-star hotel, marina, and recreation center located along Carr a La Cortina in Las Cortinas, Santiago, N.L., Mexico. Its setting near the Presa de la Boca offers scenic views of the Sierra Madre, making it a practical choice for outdoor enthusiasts interested in fishing, kayaking, and casual family gatherings.

The property features well-maintained facilities including spacious parking, camping areas, palapas with asadores (barbecue grills), and clean restrooms. Guests often highlight the availability of comfortable spots to relax, fish, and enjoy local nature. There is also a small store providing basic necessities during the stay.

Visitors frequently mention the family-friendly atmosphere, noting amenities such as a children’s wading pool and recreational areas. While many appreciate the option to bring personal food and drinks, some have pointed out limitations related to transportation within the grounds due to uneven paths and the need to use available carts, which can be challenging especially when carrying gear over rocky or unpaved surfaces.

Sun Beach appeals primarily to those looking for a quiet place to fish, camp, or spend a day outdoors with family and friends. Its combination of marina services and recreational facilities suits guests who prefer a laid-back environment over luxury accommodations. Nearby Monte Elva offers additional camping cabin options for visitors seeking more structured lodging nearby.

Lo único malo de este lugar es que tienes que tienes que trasladar tus cosas en unos carrito que tienen muy malos , no se desplazan fácilmente en una parte empedrada que tienen y la parte de tierra de igual manera, dios te bendiga si eliges un lugar retirado, por que no te dejan pasar el vehículo al menos deberían tener carritos mas apropiados.

Se trata de un excelente lugar para venir a pescar (o intentar pescar ) un rato en la Presa de la Boca. Las instalaciones son cómodas y bien mantenidas. Hay amplio estacionamiento, área de acampar, palapas y asadores. La vista de la Sierra Madre es espectacular. Buen lugar para botar kayaks.

Un lugar para relajarte, pescar y pasar un muy buen rato. Precios accesibles, negocios dentro de las instalaciones, palapas disponibles para asar carnita. Rampa para echar el bote a la presa, bastante completa la experiencia.

Playa Sol es el lugar perfecto para practicar pesca deportiva, botar lancha, pensión de lanchas/kayaks/jetski etc. Tienen diferentes zonas para estar casteando comodamente. Cuentan con palapas, asadores y zona de camping, cuartos y tienen una pequeña tiendita donde puedes encontrar lo básico/necesario. Me toco quedarme a acampar y la pasamos de maravilla, es una excelente opción para lograr pescar a muy tempranas horas de la mañana sin desmañanarse mucho y trasladarse a un spot de pesca. Tienen perritos que te acompañan, no son molestos y respetan tu espacio.

Lo utilizan pricipalmente para hacer pescar, acampar y hacer carne asada. Es un lugar bonito para acampar y hacer carne asada. Los precios (2025-03) son: $100 MXN entrada general por persona, $400 MXN renta de palapa con asador (sin límite de personas), $500 MXN por quedarse a acampar dos personas, $700 MXN por quedarse a acampar cuatro personas. NOTA: Si pagas para quedarte a acampar, no pagas entrada general. Tiene dos sets de baños los cuales mantienen muy limpios y bien abastecidos de papel. También tienen una pequeña tienda de abarrotes dentro del lugar para que no tengas que salir hasta la carretera si te faltó algo. Ya solo tienen 1 kayak que te rentan por $200 durante todo el dia pero está sucio y descuidado...no me animé por lo mismo.
