Hacienda Buenaventura Hotel and Mexican Charm: Good old fashion service

We are a return customer Excellent value, friendly staff, fabulous pool. The rooms are a bit dated, the smorg is pretty much the same everyday, however is still great value. The only advise I would give the owner is to "not change anything". :)

Riu Flamingos: Great resort

Just a super resort with manicured grounds,excellent wait staff and great food.spent2 wonderful weeks with superb only downside had dispute with cab dispute and could not get any solutions with hotel management even when promised .Although disappointed would recommend this resort to anyone looking for a super vacation

Villa Del Mar: Fantastic resort with amazing food and staff!!!

Extremely clean. Staff went out of their way to accommodate us. The food exceeded our expectations! Room was large and cleaning staff kept it Well stocked and very clean. One night there was dinner with live band held on beach. So much fun!

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Would definitely return!

We had a wonderful trip, from the flight to the resort, everything met our expectations. While the room at the resort was spacious, the bed was firmer than we like and the bathroom was in need of updating. Very clean facilities, plentiful food with menu changes frequently during the week. The staff was AMAZING and very friendly.

Grand Palladium Vallarta: Great resort for families

Grounds were nice, a little zoo in middle of resort in amoungst trees, bushes. Clean rooms and facilities, Mexican decor ect. Food pretty good in Buffett the Mexican and Asian were good, Italian and rib/steak place were not very good.

Grand Palladium Vallarta: Great Resort and Still Making Improvements

We have now stayed at The Grand Palladium Vallarta three times ..last time five years ago. We liked it then and it has even gotten better! We just returned Feb. 2/16. It would appear you need to congratulate the management for putting systems in place for improvement... BUT I think the real thanks and cuddos have to go to the par excellent staff!! We have traveled considerably and there is no doubt this is the best overall staff ever! The food quality has improved and it was quite good before. [... read more] I did not get to all a la carte restaurants but everyone I tried was good. The beach barbeques were very good. I will provide an in depth review on Trip Advisor in the next couple of days.

Velas Vallarta Suite Resort: Lush Tropical Resort...Food is top notch!

Hotel is nice and up to date. Mature crowd so if you are expecting wild parties this is not the place. Pools are great for children. The overall experience was very good. The marina is a short walk away which is a great experience. There are lots of great restaurants there and shopping. Be sure not to miss the Thursday market there. It's amazing!

Occidental Nuevo Vallarta: Amazing Resort

This resort was beyond our expectations. We were there to celebrate our 30th anniversary and it was everything we hoped for plus more. The staff was very attentive and the food was excellent! To summarize in one word AWESOME!!

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Most comfortable feel resort we've been to

Have visited the Royal Decameron Complex 10 times now and will be visiting many more. We have been to many different resorts in many different places and enjoyed them all for the most part, but the Decameron is definitely our favorite. Thank you to all the staff who are absolutely the biggest difference maker.

Grand Palladium Vallarta: Pretty average resort, raitings said it was a 4+

To far out of town, our room was mediocour not premium like stated in add, adult pool to small. Food at buffet was mostly cold if not made at cooking station. Staff was really good. The ground were nice, we like the jungle feel.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Great resort

This is a great resort, we would go back. All the staff were friendly, grounds were very vibrant, convenient location to town. Rental bikes for free to borrow. Entertainment was great (felt like we were on American's Got Talent). Restaurants were excellent. The only reason I gave 4 stars is b/c the buffets were okay.

Krystal Grand Puerto Vallarta: Very Small

Didn't enjoy not having a chair at the pool. Played the towel game in the morning and when I came back from breakfast someone had taken our towel and personal belongings off and took the chairs, right in front of the security guard. The buffet was the smallest and worst I have ever experienced in 25 years of going to Mexico. The front desk told you whatever came to their minds depending on their moods. so had to go back several times to find the truth about several matters. They wanted to take o [... read more]ur bracelets off at noon when we had to check out even though we were not being picked up until 6PM. Then rooms need some TLC as maintenance is not a priority. Not going back. Only redeeming feature was the a la cartes, they were good.

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Above and beyond

We just spent another fabulous at Friendly Vallarta, our fourth stay with these wonderful people. The staff at Friendly are second to none and can't seem to do enough for you to make your stay enjoyable. What was really noticeable was that it was the same staff year after year. It is not uncommon to have employees here who have been here for 20 plus years. Tells you how happy they are in their jobs! The rooms and grounds are so clean and inviting it is a credit to the staff as to how they try to [... read more] make everything just right. Can't wait to get back again next year!

Grand Palladium Vallarta: very beautiful resort

this resort is very nice. The grounds, pool, beach , food, drinks and staff were great. We enjoyed a very relaxing week there which was the main reason for our trip. Thank you very much for making this happen for us. We would highly recommend this resort.

Crown Paradise Golden: Great week!

We got the room we asked for, high floor, king size bed and a great view! Service was amazing from the front desk, the bartenders an the waiters. Weather was great and we went on a couple of excursions. It was a great week of fun and relaxation!

Plaza Pelicanos Club: GOOD RESORT

Had a nice stay 2 weeks friendly staff very help full . Last day was a little stressful checked out at 11 am your flight wasn't till 930 pm front desk people said we have leave 1 guy was rude.I said we have to the 24 th were are going to go have the right to eat and drink till we leave. Jamie the manager great guy and yes your with sunqest we will honer til you leave.Lots of locals nice people would go back.

Buenaventura Grand Hotel and Great Moments: Nice resort. Very family friendly

The hotel is nice and a great location in town walking distance to tons of restaurants and shops. The food was decent but the buffet can get old pretty fast. Beach was closed half of our stay due to high tides but nothing they can do about that. Pools were clean. The staff are all very helpful and nice. Drinks were also good. The beer did not taste watered down and the bars were kept clean. Rooms were clean and adequate although the beds were a little firm for my liking. Booked a romantic dinner [... read more] while we were there and got a 3 course dinner for roughly $15 each and the food was really good. Easily a $40 per person dinner where I am come from. The kids club was awesome and the staff there made them easy to trust.

Riu Flamingos: Not what it should have been

Sewer back up smell In rooms (6th floor). Mattress cover in pieces (very inconfortable) Very noisy adjacent property mainly at night (south side) Few times we had to ask to have the room done before 4:00pm. (Too busy hotel or not enough employees) Same with restaurant : service very slow even when you see the employees rushing around. Dry and wet food left on supposedly clean dishes. Red flag on the beach for the 14 days stay.

Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: Really nice resort

I stayed at this resort with my family. I have 2 young boys. 2 years and 3 months. The resort was very helpful with anything we needed. The food was good. Drinks were ok. It is a very quiet resort. The best part about the place is the staff! Always working always cleaning always repairing. They take great pride in their place and it shows.

Friendly Fun Vallarta: What we expected and more!

This was our second time to Friendly. As many before us have said, it lives up to its name! We go for the service, the small size of this resort and the food. The staff are second to none. The food for a small resort offers a lot of variety and options. Every day they're either grilling something up on the beach, or making something tasty pool side like churros. The resort is smaller and older, but they are forever maintaining and cleaning. The rooms are well kept too. My wife has a disability, [... read more] and for Mexican standards the resort is well equipped for us to get around. She spends the day using her cane, but by evening she's exhausted and she travel's by wheelchair. While the ramps are a bit steep, still pretty accessible to all areas of the resort. There's often staff standing by wanting to push the wheelchair for you. Our 4 year old son spent at least a few hours every day in the Kids Club. They do a great job with children, which allows for some of that rest you were hoping to achieve when you booked your trip! ;) If I were to criticize anything, it would be the liquor. I by no means go crazy while I'm there, but I do make frequent trips to the bar in a day. It's hot...gotta cool off somehow! The drinks they make taste good (they make some great drinks for kids too) but you can tell that the alcohol they use is of a low quality. In the end I'm okay with this because it's a 3.5 Star and to give you the level of service and quality that they do in other areas, they'll have to cut a corner somewhere. Overall, you'll be hard pressed to find a better resort rated 3.5 stars. If you want small, functional and some great service, then go to Friendly! If you're looking for a party crowd, 5 star accommodations, or perfect, new and pristine rooms, then click 5 stars on the filter and pass this one over.
