Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Wonderful Mexican style resort

This was the first time here and we were very impressed.The grounds were immaculate and the staff very friendly.The food was good and they had an amazing salad bar every lunch..and fresh and raw veg at suppers.There was always a theme night with different choices of meat entrées.The fish was great.The shows were very professional. The rooms are dated and could use some upgrades but clean and air conditioned..Pools well maintained and beach area is beautiful and close.Resort was full so could o [... read more]f used more chairs and palapas...an overall great experience for a 3-4 star resort. Would definitely come back.Would like to see less ashtrays and fewer smoking areas.Pool areas and dining entrances for sure..not family friendly

Canto Del Sol: Not amazing but what we needed

The food (especially buffet) was not great, but italian restaurant was good (depsite missing menu items). Staff were very friendly and helpful. The price of this resort allowed us to explore what else Puerto Vallarta had to offer.

Sunscape Puerto Vallarta: Would not recommend

Unfortunately our stay was not good. On the second day I hurt my back and could not walk, my husband was told he could not bring me any food that we had to order room service ( they did waive the fee); when I called I was told she had to call the kitchen and she would call me back. After 3 1/2 hours I had not heard back. I called and asked about a wheel chair and was informed it was $125/day. When I explained I only needed it to go get food they allowed us to get one. The room was not properly  [... read more]cleaned; the sheets were changed once (the day before we left, we were there for 14 days) The food was sub standard; the hotel cleanliness was sub standard; in the morning after the pool was supposedly cleaned we pulled out a large cock roach, the scum around the edge of the pool was very gross, it really needed to be scrubbed. The service was horrible, but I must say the 2 hostesses and only 1 waiter were amazing. I would not recommend this hotel at all.

Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: Not impressed

When we arrived they said they did not have our reservation. So we gave them our paperwork, which they did not return that had our flight tickets attached. It took an hour or more for them to assign us a room, and then the reservation said 4 days which should have been 8 days. We had to be out of our room by noon on check out day even though the bus did not pick up until 2 pm. Staff that did speak English were pretty good but they’re were not many.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Nice to be back!

After a 3 year hiatus, we returned to the Royal Decameron Complex for a much needed vacation. The resort was much the same as when we last stayed. The grounds are well maintained, it is very clean and the staff are friendly. The rooms could use an upgrade, particularly the beds that are very hard. The water pressure and temperature was good, we stayed in block 6 and enjoyed hot showers every day. The food is decent, buffet style so lots of choices. Though not a 5 star resort, the Royal Decameron [... read more] Complex is a lovely vacation spot on the beach and close to all the amenities in Bucerias.

Crown Paradise Club: Nice Resort

The children's park and play area was amazing, but green areas were lacking at the resort. Most of the resort is concrete. Staff were absolutely stellar and did all that they could to assist us. Room cleaning was somewhat lacking. We removed the sheets on our beds after six days so that they would be changed. We do understand saving water is very important and we did reuse our towels for several days to help out. Booking specialty restaurants was not efficient. At exactly 9:01 the entire hotel [... read more] was using the QR code attempting to book a restaurant. The buffet restaurant offered a lot of variety and the three specialty restaurants on the Club side of the resort were excellent. We had access to the adult side as well and the specialty restaurants on that side were sadly lacking. The Club side of the resort is much, much nicer than the adult side.

Riu Palace Pacifico: Amazing resort !

This was the best resort we’ve ever been to . It was beautiful spacious and clean . Everything was perfect from the food to the rooms and the beach , we loved it and would go back in a heartbeat ! Just don’t fly with Sunwing , they almost ruined it for us

Canto Del Sol: We will Return!

This is our second stay at Canto. We would not hesitate to return again. The staff over all are really good and a few go way over and above and treat you like family. We met several guests who have been going there for years and plan to go back next year. We had an issue with the faucet in the bathroom and it was addressed right away. It became an issue again and again it was fixed right away and was fine for the rest of our stay. The staff stepped up to the increase of guests do to the end of C [... read more]ovid as last year some parts were closed down because of Covid. The 3 pools were open as well as all 8 restaurants and all were busy. We appreciated the selections that gave us. When we look for a vacation to PV we compare everything to Canto and unless prices there severely increase compared to other places, we will definitely return. Note that the pools were great. It is on the beach but the Pacific is quite rough and space on the beach is limited. For us it is a good beach to walk but not to swim.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Great vacay

Staff were all so amazing, grounds were well maintained, pool area, restaurants, beach areas were always being cleaned. Very Mexican and quaint. We will return for sure as this location is perfect, can walk into town via street or beach safely

Riu Flamingos: Super Clean Resort!

Everywhere you look there was staff mopping floors, wiping tables, and cleaning off counters! Our rooms were cleaned spotless every day as well. Great service too! We had requested a minibar refill and they came up within 10 minutes! Super quick and friendly service!

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Great resort

The hotel was really nice. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The food was really good. My only complaint is that they should have more staff that speak English and advertise their activities better. Also not much entertainment at night as advertised. The room was very clean. I would have liked a coffee maker in the room. Overall it was a very lovely and enjoyable resort and would return there.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Good resort and the price was right.

Have stayed in this hotel about 8 times, the last time was in 2020 where we had a three week stay booked but, as per advisory had to go home after two due to covid. The hotel is in a lovely location, the hotel itself is quite old and is starting to show its wear it generally needs some TLC. There are six different buildings in this complex most with their own pools and sits right on the beach. Every person on staff was very efficient and personable. The food was decent in the buffets but  [... read more]often not warm enough. There are five a la carte restaurants at the Royal decameron. Italian, Mexican,Thai, Chinese and a restaurant that services mostly meat. They were all great. The rooms were a good size and were cleaned daily by the housekeeping staff. Lots to do in and around this hotel, the evening theatre shows were really well done. We will be going back again

Grand Marival Emotions Resort and Suites: Family fun

The food was excellent. The LaPergola restaurant was fast service and a great option was a la carte breakfast. Dinner a la carte restaurants were fantastic. Rooms comfortably large, beds weren't totally comfy but OK. All staff very friendly. Pools very clean and perfect temp. Soft sand and beautiful gold shimmery. I would recommend to anyone.

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Relaxing resort

Good value, rooms and public areas clean, food mostly hot and fresh Drinks good Not much entertainment All chairs, beach and poolside reserved with towels or personal items by guests by 7 am Sign posted, 30 min max to hold chairs, not enforced Pools clean and nice temperatures Not enough face cloths and hand towels Many staff speak only Spanish

Krystal Puerto Vallarta: Nice resort

The grounds were beautiful, the rooms were clean. The buffets were adequate but the Italian restaurant was amazing and the French restaurant was phenomenal. The Asian restaurant was not worth going to. My biggest complaint about the food is that it was never hot, everything was barely warm. The staff was friendly but didn’t really give you any information about the resort. We learned more from the other guests. They did not have much for entertainment. We were in bed early every night  [... read more]as there was nothing to do after dinner. This resort is in a good area, close to shopping and only a short bus ride to the Malacon. If you are looking for a truly Mexican family friendly resort and aren’t looking to party late into the evening then this is a resort for you. For the price this is good resort.

Krystal Puerto Vallarta: A solid 3.5-4 star

Rooms and common areas very clean and mostly well groomed grounds. Ala carte restaurants fantastic. Staff wonderful. Would have liked to see coffee pots and supplies in room. Entertainment totally lacking. I think employees should monitor people staking out chairs for the whole day without spending any time at all in the chairs/ lounges - very difficult to find a place to sit and lounge. Why does the resort take bands off at 11 when our shuttle doesn’t pick us up until 3 pm- that means n [... read more]o lunch prior to leaving.

Crown Paradise Club: Decent resort

The grounds we well kept and clean. The rooms are slightly outdated, however housekeeping did a great job keeping them looking as best as they could. The buffet was ok. Unfortunately they would advertise theme nights that never materialized. The service was excellent, friendly and courteous. Beach and pools amazing. Overall this is a great place for family and a quieter more relaxing vacation

Krystal Grand Nuevo Vallarta: Resort was very good

The resort was good the place was clean and staff were friendly. The booking went as planned no complaints. We would stay here again if we went to Nuevo Vallarta we will also tell others of this place.

Melia Puerto Vallarta: Very disappointing

The resort was very run down and out dated. The room door could not be locked. There was no exhaust fan in the bathroom so the mirror would stay fogged up all day. The beds were uncomfortable. The food was not good anywhere in the resort. It was cold and tasteless with little variety. We ate mostly of the resort. The entertainment was very unprofessional and not entertaining. The beach was very rough. All of the pool side chairs were reserved by 8 am and the pool was in need of repair. The best  [... read more]part was when we checked out. The desk clerk told me that I was to come down at 11 to catch my ride to the airport and that there would be a Transat rep there to help us. We came down at 10:30 and there was no rep. The clerk told us to sit and wait and they would get us when the bus came. At 11:10 I asked where the bus was and was told that it had left at ,10:30. With our flight leaving at 12:30, we got a cab to take us to an ATM machine on the way to the airport. When we got there we were told that we would have to catch the next flight out on Thursday. After talking to the gate attendant, we were told that if we run all the way to the gate, we can board the plane. We then found out that there was no boarding pass issued for Gail. After we made it through the metal detectors, we got on board and realized that we were missing one passport. Once we arrived in Toronto, customs told me to go to the Transat desk and have them call PV to locate my passport. The girl at the desk was too busy texting on her phone and handed me a card with customer service number and told me to call them. So other than that. The trip was ok

Krystal Grand Nuevo Vallarta: Could make many changes.

I will start with the positive: The room was large well kept and after the first day of requesting a time that we would like the room serviced and of course a tip to the maid each day all went well. The A la Carte restaurants were very good and service in most cases was very good. The negative however was quite negative No: 1 the beach was not easy to walk on and of course being on the Pacific the ocean was very rough.The worse part of this hotel and probably the same with nearby hotels is the [... read more] reserving of the pool and beach long chairs. At 7 am 98 % of all chairs that would be in sun were reserved with towels,shoes magazines etc and by noon probably 50% were occupied. I could mention a lot about the Mexican Mafia but space is not available on the review. All and all we gave over the 2 weeks 2800.00 pesos in tips.
