Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Fantastic hotel

This was my fourth stay over the past 15 years and has only has gotten better. Great staff, beautiful grounds. Clean rooms and great food. Lots of staff on and always willing to help. Great place for all ages and lots to enjoy at the resort and lots to go and do close by if wanted

Riu Flamingos: Riu Jalisco

The hotel was very nice and the resort was incredible. Staff- excellent Food- the breakfasts were amazing, the buffet restaurant was excellent all the time, the specialty restaurants were a little disappointing. The snack bar was excellent. All desserts were great. Rooms - were very nice with great views, however, the rooms always smelled musty and there was some black mold in the bathroom. Loved the towel critters we found on our bed after the rooms had been cleaned. Pools- the water w [... read more]as cooler than the ocean...however, they were GREAT and there were lots of lounges.

Crown Paradise Golden: Not a good holiday

The hotel staff were excellent. Hotel and rooms are dated. The two restaurants in adult section were excellent. The two outside bars, the music played was different and very loud. The entertainment music was deafeningly loud (had to leave five shows). The beach vendors were a constant irritant by bothering one every few minutes giving no time to relax. The beach was not very good

Barcelo Puerto Vallarta: Not great!

It's a small resort in middle of nowhere. it's 40 minute cab ride of downtown Puerta Vallarta. the rooms need some upgrading and there's always repairs going on. The buffet is limited and lacking in the variety of food. I am a beach person but spent the whole week by the pool. the beach is not great for swimming or laying in the sun. the loungers are in the shade for most the day and the waters are rough for swimming. Housekeeping lacked since everyday I had to go hunting for wash cloths, [... read more] face towels and a bath mat. even after leaving a generous tip the service did not improve. this was my first time to this resort and would not go back. overpaid for the service received.

Riu Flamingos: Beautiful

This is the second time we have stayed at a RIU and were not disappointed. Staff are wonderful, grounds are clean and tidy. We did enjoy all our meals from the buffets to the ala cartes. The entertainment was great! And was always fun to see the guests join in!

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Comfortable, Friendly Resort

It is hard to describe all the spectacular features offered by this resort . Grounds are gorgeous and a joy to walk around in. Pools are well maintained and very user friendly. Staff is great and always willing to help. Rooms are basic but comfortable and clean. Food is plentiful and the buffets offer something for everyone. Weather has been spectacular both times we have been there.

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: BEWARE....RAMPANT ILLNESS

My husband and and I booked the Grand Fiesta Americana resort in Puerto Vallarta months in advance with great anticipation of 5 ⭐️ accommodations in paradise. Upon arrival on January 24,2019, the resort presents well, but beyond the beautiful views trouble is lurking. Our initial room assigned was on the third floor, unacceptable as we had paid for an upgrade... after much discussion and negotiations we were placed on the 11th floor... perhaps a foreshadow of the trouble to come. Each da [... read more]y we would hear or see more guests becoming violently ill. By the end of the week there was empty lounge chairs to equal the numerous “do not disturb “ sign on hotel rooms. It was evident that something serious was happening, with management trying to mask the situation. Several days I witnessed a team of health and hotel officials testing the water ... hmmm! Personally, I did not feel well all week, but that last 24 hours was the worst as I could not stop vomiting/diarrhea on the way to the airport, at airport, on plane and now at home. While driving to airport, learned from Calgary couple that they had also been ill and had discovered from hotel staff that there was a rip in the water filtration purification system, eventually poisoning the guests. (Maybe not intentional but possibly for some time?) If this is proven, a Class Action Lawsuit should be launched from those affected guests. At least, a thorough investigation of this labelled 5 star resort should be conducted immediately starting with a complete shut-down, various levels of health, government, advocacy and travel agencies involved. Beautiful sunsets, smiling staff, modern room decor and wheelchair accessibility are all secondary to a guests health and well being ... This is a very, very serious situation that needs a LOUD VOICE for CHANGE! https://www.cristalstandards.com/en/claims

Fiesta Americana Riviera Nayarit: Best heated a pool in Puerto Vallarta

We were there on January 24 for one week with our grand children and enjoyed the resort very much . We had stayed at the Dreams before and this Dreams fitted our needs This Dreams rated 7 out of 10 and the Dreams we stayed at before was rated 2 where 1 is the best. It is not too big a resort which makes it easy to keep an eye on the grandkids . Rooms were spotless and large but the large bath tub in the middle of the room took up a lot of space and was never used b [... read more]y most patrons. We enjoyed the no reservations for the a la carte restaurants. Our favorite was the Mexican restaurant where the spanish coffee was made at your table The Buffet Breakfast had everything one would want. We found the service was good Warning : the bathroom toilet door is like a glass shower room door so if you want your privacy be warned. The internet was hit and miss. with a router in every other room. so I suggest if the internet is important you specify a room with the router. Internet was fine in the lobby. The activity pool was well heated and very clean. This made for our enjoyment of the place. Our grandkids spent 4 hours at a time in the pool. The infinity pool was not heated and that was evident as no one was in that pool. We paid extra for the water view and expected we would be close to the ocean. The building closest to the ocean is all condos. We could see a small portion of the ocean from our balcony but we could hear the wave crashing on the beach.The beach is excellent for kids Only two wines were offered a red merlot and a chardonnay. If you wanted another type that was extra charge. I would recommend this as a great family resort.

Barcelo Puerto Vallarta: Not what I expected

The hotel was nice, considering an older building. Clean rooms. Had issues getting linen had to ask for it everyday. We had a note on our bed 3rd day in to use our towels more than once and shut of all electricity when leaving room to save on hydro..eg A-C and fans. Also only changed sheets every other day if asked if not they would change them on 3rd day. Problems with wi-fi all week and we paid for it. Food was ok.The beach area was terrible, very small and a lot of small boats sitting there, [... read more] waiting to take you out to see the whales, and snorkeling. The under toe was some what bad and everyday. Entertain was good a show every night...but no disco's. When we went it was last minute received a little break on the amount..but not worth the $$$$. Won't go back to that resort.

Krystal Grand Nuevo Vallarta: Krystal ... good holiday destination

We just returned from a 10 day vacation at the Krystal. The good.... Carlos and Giovanny!!! you guys are excellent bar tenders thanks for the great service and ready smiles. The room was excellent , the maid service was excellent Carmen did a fantastic job as well! Also the guys at the snack bar and the girl that does the food service there are fantastic I wish I got their names. The so so... the food was not bad but the service was really disorganized it seemed no one has a specific area t [... read more]o look after so they were always running into each other. I think the management needs to work on that. Also, get rid of the cat out of the "O" I found that a little un healthy. The grounds are really pretty but get rid of that green pool, make the walk way on the far side and put out more beach chairs. Even the walk ways into the resort or down to the beach are way to narrow and with the sharp edges your just looking for people to break their ankles! The bad.... no chairs, people reserving chairs on the beach and the pool then not using them all day. The daily newsletter says its a no no but no one does anything about it. I witnessed guests removing towels and getting yelled at by others when they come back 3 hrs later for their chair. Its vacation, no one should set the alarm for 5 am to go get a chair and that is what alot of people do! I would make it a no no to do that its a first come first serve basis to bad if you have to enjoy the sun from a different angle ... but please put more chairs on the beach you have over 400 rooms, and 2 people per room as a minimum you need 800 chairs not the 300 that you have. The beach could use at least another 100 chairs, just have a look next door at the Riu they have lots of beach chairs so no reason why you cant have enough for all of your guests.

Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: Very Enjoyable

A very nice complex with a great walking beach and very nice grounds. Lots of pool activities with support staff. Specialty restaurants were good but not exceptional ... enjoyed the food at the French the most.sport casual attire is all that is needed at the restaurants. A large Hilton resort currently under construction next door. Would definitely go back some day.

Villas Vallarta by Canto del Sol: Villas Vallarta Great

Villas Vallarta is a great mid budget hotel.Wonderful pool,restaurant and rooms very clean for an older hotel.Most rooms have been upgraded with new bathroom showers ie:direct rain shower heads wonderful.Also with the use of the Canto Del Sol hotel it all makes for a great stay.I would highly recommend as I've stayed here numorous times.It is centrally located to downtown Puerto Vallarta only a short bus ride experience or a cheap cab.Book Villas Vallarta for a great stay.

Grand Palladium Vallarta: Palladium Vallarta Wows Again

This is our second time coming to Palladium Vallarta and we loved it all over again. We got greeted in the mornings by Antonio at the Breakfast Buffet and it continued throughout day with all the great employees there. The resort is just an amazing setting. We took an excursion to Vista Paraiso with our guides being Eric, Roberto and Papparazi photographer Ozwaldo on a 4 Wheeler tour of the area which was our favourite tour yet.

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Wonderful resort

We have been to this resort 3 times and the name fits this resort to a T. The staff are amazing. Food is very good and there is always something to do for everyone What makes it unique is the staff who actually care about you and actually remember you.

Grand Palladium Vallarta: One of our favorites.

It was our second time staying at the Grand Palladium Vallarta. We will be back again. Its a nature lover's dream. The grounds are spread out, which we feel is a bonus when you eat and drink at an all inclusive, its nice to be able to move around to get from point A to point B. The infinity pool and Mexican restaurant balcony are by far our favs. The beach is awesome if you love to play in the surf. And the staff is always ready with a smile.

Krystal Grand Puerto Vallarta: Disappointing

Although the building and facilities are quite modern and lovely the food and services left much to be desired. For the most part the staff were quite good with the exception of a few servers who had unhappy demeanours. The drinks were unfortunately rather slim on the alcohol and the patio furniture was often broken. The resort had very few beach umbrellas which meant that folks were getting up at 6 am to try to reserve shaded areas. We observed a few tense altercations over "reserved" lounge ch [... read more]airs. We loved the view but would not return.

Occidental Nuevo Vallarta: The place is amazing!

BTW, this is our first time giving a review and the reason is because we had one of the best times ever. We went to this resort the 2nd week of Jan 2019. The place is as it appears on the pictures, fantastic; the location is great, the beach is long and beautiful although the water a little choppy, the staff were warm and helpful, the rooms and our experience was fantastic. The food quality the best we've had at any all inclusive resort. We went to the old city in Puerto Vallarta 3 times, only  [... read more]35 mins via taxi from the resort for only $15 CDN one way; there is so much to see and do, a real vibrant city. I recommend the resort to all who are looking for quality at the cost advertised, worth every penny. Our assessment of this resort is no exaggeration. We look forward to returning.

Barcelo Puerto Vallarta: Wonderful West Mexico!

The room was really large with two bathrooms and two king sized beds. Great view of the ocean. The pools are great, and so are the hot tubs. The grounds were nice. The food was very good (especially the a la cart restaurants. Service was good and the staff are very attentive. I would consider returning for sure.

Fiesta Americana Puerto Vallarta: Loved Staying Here!

We loved our week here. The food and drinks were delicious, a wide variety on the menus at the different restaurants at the resort. The grounds and rooms were clean and beautiful - the staff were so friendly! Awesome place. We would definitely come back!

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: Awesome Resort and Staff Excluding the Sickness

This hotel and staff were excellent. The 24 hour room service was solid. The rooms were clean and seemed new. The food tastes good and seemed fresh every day but the buffet could've used more selection. I the restaurants were good and could be booked many times. The beach was particularly nice as you could snorkel and swim without any issues. The most glaring and obvious problem with this resort was the norovirus. It seems to be having a constant circulation of sickness that's been occurring sin [... read more]ce November 2018. Four of the five people we went with ended up sock and wasted about 36 hours of our vacation violently ill. Since this problem has been occurring for so long and the hotel staff has so far not acknowledged it I wouldn't recommend this hotel until they solve this problem. I doubt I'll go back because of that problem. My rating reflects the lack of interest in solving this problem since November of 2018 when the first reviews started coming in with this problem.
