Fun Game Room

The games room became a social hub for our group! With two very nice golf simulators, a pool table, shuffleboard, and a wide array of video games, we spent hours having fun together. It was a fantastic way to relax and bond after our excursions.

My stay at the resort was a dream come true, set against breathtaking views and surrounded by nature. The room we stayed in was fantastic, with stunning views, but the service could have been a bit more consistent, especially with room servicing. The dining was largely excellent, with some standout dishes, though it wasn't perfect. Overall, this is a wonderful place for those looking to unwind and immerse themselves in nature, but be prepared for the extra costs associated with activities.

Our stay at Sonora Resort was a delightful mix of relaxation and adventure, making it a memorable experience overall. The stunning views from our spacious room were complemented by a calm, tranquil atmosphere. While the activities and location were fantastic, the dining experience left something to be desired, as the food didn’t quite match the high expectations set by the resort's reputation. Despite the dining shortcomings, I would still recommend this resort for its natural beauty and unique amenities.
