Las Palmas by the Sea: This Hotel has a lot to offer

This Hotel has an adult only pool they were quick at enforcing the rule and quickly asked children to leave. There is good live entertainment every night, comfortable beds, at least mine was and great staff. The food was not the best I've had at a resort but it certainly wasn't the worst. The Hotel attracts a lot of partiers who stay up until the wee hours and cause a lot of noise which is magnified by the hall way/structure of the building. I was told the 4th floor was quiet and did not experie [... read more]nce and door slamming, door knocking, children screaming, parents yelling at their children well into the night. A Gentleman's Club is next to this Hotel, it is open all night and the loud booming base tone/noises until the wee hours of the morning were enough to drive a person out of any peace you could hope to find (once the children stopped screaming) I would not recommend this hotel and will not be returning.

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: Excellent Resort

We totally enjoyed this resort. Close to take bus to old romantic area of Puerto Vallarta. . As always with a pool a lot of loud thumping music during the day. We stayed in the North Tower away from the pool. Food very good. A lot of restaurant choices and bonus no reservations. Spotless resort, wonderful views. Will return!

Las Palmas by the Sea: Love Las Palmas !

We have gone to PV for years and usually stay at the same hotel in the romantic zone as we like to be in town and love that hotel. This year we could not get 2 weeks there so we stayed at Las Palmas and we loved it .We had a room on the second floor on the adult pool side which is a little quieter and had a nice enough ocean view for us . Great staff , a good beach , nice pool , always something to eat and drink and only about $10 Canadian to town but there are also shops and places to poke aro [... read more]und in just down the street from the hotel . All in all Las Palmas has won a little piece of my heart . Thanks for a great trip !!

Buenaventura Grand Hotel and Great Moments: Resort was okay

The one thing I can say is most of the staff we encountered were wonderful. The rooms I found weren’t quite what you see on the website but clean enough, could use a little updating. Food was decent but if you want pancakes and bacon you have to order from the waiter not always available at buffet not a big deal. Lots of beach service and around the pool, tip well and they bring you anything. Not a huge resort so not a lot of choices one bar and one restaurant unless you book the al a carte. W [... read more]e found a lot of people left as you are so close to the melacon to eat out. But in my mind when you pay so much for your trip why pay to eat somewhere else all the time. Next and I wasn’t impressed by this when you check out they cut your band off and you no longer can use their services, we had two and half hours before we left for the airport. They wanted 100 pesos an hour per person if you wanted to use the facilities. Okay 100 pesos is not that much but to me it is the principal we paid good money for our trip and we tipped everyone constantly. I was not impressed I have never found this at any other resort I have stayed at. I like you are close to the melacon but I would not choose to go back. The royal decameron Is our go to and I really missed it this trip. Adult pool always had kids in it Beach was rocky, beach and pools chairs not great.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Very good Resort

My wife and I thouroughly enjoyed our stay. We found resort a little dated, but it was clean, staff friendly and helpful. Any issues our large party had were quickly addressed and rectified. We are already looking forward to planning our next trip to PVR and staying at the Royal Decameron

Grand Sirenis Matlali Hills: Great Resort!

Really enjoyed our time here! Definitely worth (& contemplating) another visit. - Grounds: The grounds were simply immaculate, natural/peaceful. Excellent attention to maintaining its natural beauty; extremely well kept. Very relaxing environment. - Public Areas: Always well maintained, never crowded or cluttered. - Staff: Very friendly & helpful, they were really attentive and always willing to help. Whether it was tailoring breakfast, arranging reservations, Facilitating transport - The [... read more] service was definitely praiseworthy. - Rooms: Very spacious suite. No issues with housekeeping at all. Water in the suite wasn’t potable (Dec ‘17), but plenty of bottled water was provided, and the fridge was always fully stocked. - Features: Enjoyed the beach club, transport to beach club was seamless. Food was always good.

Marival Emotions Resort and Suites Riviera Nayarit: Really a great resort and destination

Marival in Nuevo Vallarta was really a great resort and destination. It had everything that you look for when going away. Everything from an excellent long, wide, powdery beach to great dining, entertainment, rooms and gardens plus some other bonus features. The staff were very attentive with consistently excellent service. Amazing sunsets. The only thing I disliked was that from arrival at the Puerto Vallarta airport to check-in there were several high pressure tactics to pressure you in [... read more]to going to a time-share sales presentation. At the airport when you were looking for your transfer ride travel staff are lined up at counters calling you over knowing you are looking for your transfer. They then proceed into their sales pitch and are relentless and annoying. Even at hotel check-in they hand you off to a person to (so they say) give you your bracelets. This person isn't interested in giving you your bracelet so you can start your vacation and proceed to your room after a long trip. Instead working to sell time share units and pressure you to visit an RCI time share presentation. The number of close attempts was crazy even bringing over a 2nd closer time share Manager. What a trap/gimmick, . OMG we went to vacation; not be pressured to buy time shares. We simply had to demand our bracelets be given to us and walk away. Very bad start to an otherwise excellent vacation.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Great vacation!

Didn’t start off to well with Air Transat sitting on the tarmac in Vancouver for almost 3 hours! However, once we reached the Royal De Cameron that was soon forgotten. The rooms are clean and all the staff are friendly. We would definitely visit them again!

Riu Flamingos: Great resort

Clean, pleasant staff, good entertainment, great food, lovely Christmas decorations. Only complaint would be, no Wifi available in rooms, but they are working on it. Would love to have coffee maker in the room!

Riu Vallarta: Super great stay

I have nothing bad to say. Good food, drinks. Super clean. What we enjoyed most was all the live bands they bring in. The evening entertainment is so fun. Only bad thing was family rooms next to ours so it could be noisy during the night and early morning. You can’t go wrong here

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Beautiful Resort

The resort is fantastic, the staff are friendly and accommodating. We had a great time lots of restaurants to choose from as well as 5 pools to relax around. The beach is gorgeous and yes you can walk for miles down the beach in each direction. Very clean both the accommodations and beach

Sunscape Puerto Vallarta: Mediocre resort

The hotel was ok. The rooms were a good size. Beds were old and uncomfortable. We asked for a cot because we had two children and they brought in a 3rd bed. Had no room to move. Food was absolutely awful, they only made 3 waffles at a time. No bacon. Undercooked sausages.

Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: Iberostar

We travel 2 times a year to hot destinations. This hotel I would rate as a 4 star. Considering what we paid I could not justify the cost for what we got. We have been to so many Mexican resorts and sadly this one I would not visit again. We had a great time however the cost on this one, I truly was expecting more.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Amazing family friendly resort

Really amazing family oriented resort. The animation was great, entertainment team really worked hard. The beach was awesome. Very friendly and helpful staff. We are going to this resort next year again.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Great resort, highly recommend

Everything is great about this resort. Easy to get around, always lots of pool and beach chairs and no waits for food. Did not care for the reservation method for the La Carte but works for them. No beach or pool services however lots of bars just steps away. Staff were all great

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: amazing resort

we can't say enough about our two week stay at the fiesta americana . it's a beautiful resort and very well kept . the resterants were all very nice and the food was excellent .our room was very well kepted . the pool and beach areas were very spacious and well kepted too. we will definitly be returning to the fiesta americana. thank you for a wonderful holiday .

Playa Los Arcos: Amazing hotel

Perfect location. The Beach fun so close and staff to set you up. Yes the hotel is aging they seem to be working all the time. Our room was clean, beds were comfortable, really comfortable and clean. Fluffy bath towels. Fantastic maid. We got everything we asked for. As I said need to spruce the rooms up a bit ..food was good ..drinks were awsome..nice pools. Could of used 2 working elevators!! The amazing ..amazing thing is the staff!!

Las Palmas by the Sea: I like this resort,have been here before, very good value, just never had the negatives before!!!

Everything about this resort was exactly as expected with the exception of arrival, booking in and the room we had the first night. Checking in became a huge problem, despite having three requisitions for the transat flight and the room the desk said they were not correct??? Don't know why or what was wrong, My name was right there in their computer for the appropriate days, they said we would have to wait till they completed the crowd check in and then they would verify my reservation, I sort o [... read more]f lost it, I had payed for this trip more than two months ago. We finally got our room, dark dingy in the corner, security lock did not work, door did not fit properly, toilette seat was broken, bathroom was not clean and there were no towels and it turned out there also was no hot water. After more aggravation, we were move the next day but we did not receive keys to the room till mid afternoon so we had no place to go and they moved our luggage so it was also unavailable to us. Fortunately things improved for the time remaining. .Interestingly not once did I hear any apology or even concern for the problems they had caused!!!!!

Sheraton Buganvilias Puerto Vallarta Hotel: Nice resort

very nice hotel . at night too loud the music too many drunk people. in the pool big problem for the children and adult.........everyone smoke like a chimney. food is good ,staff friendly. As all the resort they will invite you for a presentation of time share.

Riu Flamingos: Great time!

The resort is beautiful, clean and quite big. The rooms and bathrooms were well kept, and I have very high, specific, standards (some would say princess) when it comes to this. We did ask for new sheets as there were random hairs (assumed to be from the house keepers) but they came up and changed them very quickly. Staff was great although many don't speak english apart from the lobby staff. I was a bit worried seeing theft complaints but honestly, why would you do/expect things that you wouldn' [... read more]t normally at home. We simply left the DND sign up the entire trip and requested things needed while we were present. NO issues. Drinks and food were great too, buffet has the better variety IMO. There is an Asian restaurant behind the Mexican one that many seemed to not notice. Beach has darker waters but many told me it's due to the season and obviously this has nothing to do with the hotel itself. ATV tour is highly recommended. Take a 10 minute taxi ride to the nearest city or I found out later you can WALK along the beach to the same market.There is an AMAZINGG restaurant that you MUST try "Seafood the Fat Boy" I wish I found it sooner. Street level is hotel after hotel so for those who like to explore you would need to take a cab out further or walk along the beach. If looking to party in the city, we took a 40 min cab to a club called Mandala. Beautiful club and fun, safe, vibe. Overall amazing trip, left too soon and I would definitely return!
