Riu Latino: Amazing Resort

The resort was everything we wanted and more. From the amazing service, great food options, rooms that were clean, spacious and comfortable. It is a smaller resort with everything conveniently located. I would definitely recommend.

Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya: Best resort yet

The food was amazing. The dinners had so much variety, quality and fun incorporated. Service was incredible. Beach was so accessible and clean. Activities were perfect for my family. Can't wait to return.

Barcelo Maya Beach Resort: Beautiful but sometimes loud

This place is huge! More than a half hour walk from side to side! The grounds are meticulously kept and its all very beautiful! The whole resort is very clean. The first couple days there was some sort of music festival nearby so you heard loud club music pounding from noon to 10pm. During this time the buffets were mad houses with people crashing into each other. One night there was a party with music so loud it rattled thr coffee mugs in my room from several hotels away. It went till. Almost 3 [... read more] am! Was not happy with this at all and I overheard alot of people at the front desk complaining about it. The ocean beach is beautiful but the water is murky and full of rocks and boulders.

Posada Real Ixtapa: Great pool and awesome staff

Stayed for 7 days, beds were very hard, food was repetitive/boring. This resort is very noisy there is a bar next door that plays music till 2 in the morning, the balcony doors do little to keep the noise out. Pool deck is very slippery, we saw a few people fall, they could use more nonslip mats. The staff was friendly and the pool on the beach was beautiful!

Barcelo Puerto Vallarta: Good resort

An outside grill for lunch would be needed so you don’t need to change cloths if you are poolside Very friendly atmosphere Whale watching and snorkelling were great and awesome dive Center staff were more than helpful

Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: Pickleball crazy

Decameron Los cocos is 1.5-2 hrs north of puerto Vallarta airport. A very good free tour of country side and towns along the way. Hotel is submerged in Guayabitos on west side. Meals are very good clean rooms and just the rooster calling at 0530 to tell us it is time to go pickleball. We pack a coffee thermos , a covered drinking cup and a large water bottle , get filled at bars or restaurants. No garbage from us made. On the weekends the town comes alive Mexican style with hundreds of national [... read more]s vacationing on the coast We sailed two times , kayaked twice and walked the 4 km beach numerous times in between throwing a frisbee. There is no sunrise or set at the cocos hotel. The best is the stay and play at three sister hotels. Alacarts varied throughout the week. The use of washrooms bars and restaurants at all three a very big bonus. Our day started at 0430 , dressed and coffee on board with a breakfast grabbed from buffet the day before. 40 min walk to east side of Guayabitos where a pickleball club is playing at 0630. Very reasonable rates very welcoming. To the hotel. Build a trough at beach to stop sand from tracking everywhere 16 x 4 in deep x12 feet long save water Move bar in snack bar to east wall , feed beach people at side bar stop sand from tracking everywhere. I saw too many windows open drapes open and air conditioner running very wasteful of power The staff are beautiful hard working and very friendly. Loved our stay.

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Wonderful resort

My husband and I enjoyed this hotel a great deal. Everything was great. The rooms were large and lavish. The food was delicious. We especially enjoyed the Tapanyaki dinner at the Japanese restaurant. Beach and pool area were beautiful

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: Nice resort /Questionable management

The resort is decent. A little dated. Food was pretty good with some obvious efforts to provide decent meals. The biggest issue was noise: 4:30 am on our first night we were awakened by the sound of power washing of the pool deck and the dragging of chairs across the deck. Our third night was worse as at 3:45 am we were awakened this time by the sound of some sort of machinery in the hallway. I went out to see a staff member using an industrial floor polisher… banging against the elevator door [... read more]s and walls. I spoke with the front desk and the advised that maintenance had to be done during the evening. There is absolutely no logic or reasoning that could justify there actions. The next day I asked to speak to a manager about the issue and was advised the manager would contact me. Nobody ever contacted us regarding our issues. This is totally unacceptable.

Melia Puerto Vallarta: An OK resort not a 4.5 star

The hotel grounds were lovely, room comfortable, very clean. What brought the rating down in my estimation was the food. Very little variety and not great quality. The restaurants were a disappointment. We have been to Mexico several times and this was by far the most disappointing when it came to food.

Riu Palace Peninsula: Perfect Vacation

The hotel staff were very welcoming. They were always available to make sure we were getting the most out of our trip. This resort has a great selection of restaurants, along with a fantastic buffet area. We came with a large group and there was plenty of room at the beach or around the pool. This trip had a great balance of rest and relaxation along with some fun parties. Whatever you are looking for I think you will find at this resort.

Hotel Marina El Cid Spa and Beach Resort: Lovely Resort

The room was spacious and lovely. The grounds were so lush and so pretty all lit up! The restaurants were excellent with the Japanese and Italian my favs. The pool was a lovely temperature to get into, refreshing but not cold so it was easy to enjoy.

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: Great Resort

This resort was great in many ways. However, paying extra for the enclave package is definitely not worth it. If you're familiar with other Experience packages like live from milia.Resorts, this doesn't there's no comparison.It's the enclave is definitely not worth the investment.Otherwise, this resort was fantastic.The views were amazing and the people were very friendly

Ocean Maya Royale: Disappointed with all except the staff; photos aren’t realistic, and Privilege apparently doesn’t always apply

Unfortunately what I experienced is not what the photos in the ads displayed. I had a ‘large’ leak in my ‘Privelege’ room which required 2 large bath towels in the middle of the night to deal with and 2 calls to my butler as the front desk did not answer the phone. It’s not a difficult repair - I moved into a 70 year old home that required major renovations - they just need to be done properly the first time. After the 2nd text to my butler, large paint chips on the floor & ceiling, and multipl [... read more]e emptying of the dehumidifier in the room I asked to be moved - they were accommodating. I would never make comments like this without photos for proof, of the room, the commentary with my butler and the difference between the actual Privilege area versus what can be seen in advertising photos. I was also disappointed when I went to the Japanese restaurant, advertised as ‘A la Carte’ but not given the option to order from the menu - as a solo guest - or sit with a crowd of strangers and watch a show I hadn’t intended to see. I was not informed before ordering a Sapporo that there was a charge (surprising as it is a Premium beer and Privilege guests are supposed to be entitled to Premium drinks) and guests should ALWAYS be told prior to ordering if there is an extra charge, when they are not given the courtesy of seeing a menu. What was supposed to be a special trip turned out to be disappointing and a lot of false advertising. This was definitely not a 5 star hotel or I would not have been sitting on plastic chairs for my ‘special dinner’.

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Fantastic service!

Very nice pools and all the staff in the bars and restaurants were friendly and great to talk to. The room we had was showing its age, for sure. We got sick at the end, possibly from the clogged filter in the air conditioning, maybe there was mould in there? The Black & White bar and the Swing Bar were lots of fun, and the nighttime shows were very good. The food in the main restaurant was pretty good - we were impressed, as there was quite a variety over the time we were there. The Special  [... read more]restaurants were also good. As with most All-Inclusive places, there was a shortage of chairs at the pools, and no one followed the "do not reserve chairs" rule. They eventually brought out a few more chairs.

Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya: Great time!

We stayed here for a week in December. The food options were amazing, all the employees were friendly and helpful. Lots of restaurants to choose from, the buffet had an overwhelming amount of options, the beach tacos were perfect and the late night sports bar was a hit for us a lot of time after the entertainment! The resort was beautiful, easy to walk around but shuttles were offered frequently! So much wild life, we saw monkeys 5/7 days we were there! Beach was small, you couldn’t walk along i [... read more]t and rocky water but there were lots of sandy areas up higher for the chairs.

Allegro Playacar: Amazing Resort

This resort was really nice. Smaller resort but the layout was exceptional. The beach was amazing and beautiful withnalot of activities. Vendors on the beach too! Lots of lawnchairs. Patrolled all day. Both buffets had amazing food and pizza was so so good. The grounds and rooms were so clean. Amazing and fun staff! Definetely a go to place in the future!

Las Palmas by the Sea: Amazing Time

My wife and I stayed here from December 6 to December 13 and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The resort was clean and everyone was great. We had a king room with ocean view and it was kept clean and we did not have any issues. It's not a fancy resort but the food and drinks were excellent. We would definitely return.

Samba Vallarta: Yes amazing resort.

This was my 10th year at this resort. Obviously I love it. Staff is courteous & very helpful.Food is plentiful & variety for all tastes. Grounds are well maintained. Shows for everyone. Only complaint is not getting a negotiated room. I have knee issues & always get the 4th floor but I managed.

Grand Riviera Princess: Excellent resort

The room was very clean and spacious. The beach was great, not crowded and the water was clean and warm. The food at the buffet, both in main and beach restaurants, was excellent. Transportation to Playa del Carmen very efficient. I will definitely come back.
