Cons: Room smell like mildew/ mold  at front desk wasn’t friendly or accommodating. Her attitude was very dry.

Pros: The food was very good as were all the staff.

Cons: We were there last year and thought the rooms were much better than this trip. We moved rooms from the 2nd floor to the 6th. 2nd floor room had holes in the curtains, counter tops need polishing, no maid service until late pm. , no regular coffee.

Pros: Service was incredible throughout the resort. Every room is ocean front and the view can’t be beat.

Cons: They allow chair hogs to reserve lounges by the pool starting early in the morning. Seats sit empty with stuff on them for hours. Ridiculous! All chairs taken by 9 AM.

Pros: The resort was beautiful. Exactly like the pictures online! Every room had an ocean view. It was gated, therefore we felt very safe. The spa was very nice. The staff was very friendly and welcoming! We can’t wait to go back.

Cons: temperature in all pools, to warm and to water to cloudy, didn't feel clean. didn't like food at Mexican restaurant. very long line for breakfast buffet.

Pros: Service is fantastic

Cons: A lot of kids checked in on our third day there....that was only downside.

Pros: Pools are nice, some staff are nice and some are not. Taco bar was superb.

Cons: Overrated for the paid amount. No child care. Waitress and waiters took longer to attend to your needs. My glass of water was not refilled when asked the first time. Had to remind them 3-4 times then it was refilled. Food was ok not great Rooms were not attended until after 4 pm.

Pros: Staff treats you well, rooms with nice views.

Cons: Service is very slow, they take 2 hours to get towels or anything you you need. They can definitely improve on service. Also they guy who was supposed to introduce us to services or things to do in the resort was more interested in selling romantic dinner and spa time. Had to question him directly to find out things to do in the resort.

Pros: We liked the pools.

Cons: The fridge is terrible. We had to bring our ice packs to the concierge to freeze for us. The rooms are Ok. I wish they were a bit cleaner and more functional — it was a bit rundown. The bellboys forgot to bring up our bags after two hours so we had to go down and grab them ourselves. Overall, we had a decent time — not the best. Could have been better.

Pros: Overall the service was amazing, Pools & Lobby area is beautiful!! The food was amazing at all the restaurants we ate for being an all-inclusive resort.

Cons: Rooms Definitely need to be upgraded! To me it was more like a three star resort felt like room was a little dirty we had to change rooms when we got there because first room we got was not clean. We got our room almost at 6 PM instead of 3 PM

Pros: Great location with good beach and pools. The room and bed were very comfortable. Fun entertainment and activities.

Cons: A little pushy about joining the membership club. Food was good but not outstanding.

Pros: Breakfast buffet was great.

Cons: Dinner buffet. Rocky beach.

Pros: Good food and drinks

Cons: Money went missing from our room. Lots of children.

Pros: The hotel is clean and big. The staff is friendly. The room was clean and modern. Many pools , for adults and kids. The beach was clean and the ocean water warm but murky. The town is 10 minutes away.

Cons: The food and drinks were horrible. The first night we arrived , we tried ( 9 people int the group ) Castaways seafood restaurant and it was not that great. I did not like the fish so I ordered the rib eye and it was not seasoned or cooked properly. Most of us had to return the plates back so we can order other things from the menu. I ordered a Mojito and when i got it I thought i was given a glass of water ! I asked the waiter if i was given someone else's drink but he told me that the drink is fine and this is how they make drinks for Americans because we don't like them strong ! From that point on I just ordered shots of Hornitos tequila or just Hornitos with a splash of lemon juice. The next day , we tried the Mexican place , downstairs, and their food was almost uneatable. I was frustrated with what I got , so I ordered chicken tacos to keep it simple. I got three dry (probably microwaved chicken ) tacos with nothing in them. Did not even try the Japanese or the Italian place next door because if you cannot have decent Mexican food in Mexico , why even bother with Japanese or Italian . We left the hotel and went to some local Mexican restaurants and had great Mexican seafood/pastor. P.S: - The staff at the restaurants and the buffet were friendly and very helpful. - The buffet was the best thing they had at the hotel. We just ate their the whole time.

Pros: The grounds and the lobby are beautiful.

Cons: Our room was very musty smelling. I also was very disappointed with the quality of the food.

Pros: Beautiful views, shows every night, 10 minute cab from downtown

Cons: The staff was okay. I felt like they could have been a bit more genuinely nice as a whole.

Pros: Price and location. The patio was nice too. The food at the restaurant Fredy Tucan's was delicious and inexpensive.

Cons: If you are looking for a luxury hotel this isn't it. But it's comfortable and close to everything. We did ask to change rooms to a larger room and management was very accommodating with the request.

Pros: Wonderful friendly staff! Very accommodating

Cons: Sometimes noisy poolside guest and children swimming :-(

Pros: Lovely place, and really gay friendly.

Cons: The pillows are a little lumpy.

Pros: The garden was beautiful

Cons: The payment process online could improve

Pros: Friendly staff and walking distance to beach.

Pros: Awesome garden. Nice staff. Nice pool. Excellent location.

Pros: The location.

Cons: When we arrived to the hotel it took a while for the man to give us our key card and after he gave it to us it didn't work. He then proceeded to try and fix the card inserted for like 10-15 min instead of giving us a new room which there were plenty of available. After a while he then decided to give us a new room. The pool was highly chlorinated and a bit dirty as well.

Pros: -clean room -helpful staff -fantastic location -breakfast available onsite at Freddys Toucan -pretty reception -colourful decor -beach towels to hire for a small deposit & can refresh when you wish (deposit returned when towels handed back in) -Parrot they had in the lobby, very chatty, but don't worry they move him of a night time!

Cons: -A few nights running we were disturbed multiple times during the night due to a group of young teenagers staying at the hotel(we believe a school). We complained to the staff who gave us a number to call if it happened again. They also put out more 'keep the noise down' signs in the lobby/reception area as a warning when guests returned to the hotel of a night time. It was nice to see that they were making the effort to help with the issue.

Cons: For the size of the room, quality of the bathroom, lack of safe in the room, lack of breakfast, standoffish staff, the price is far too high.

Pros: It’s a hidden gem in the middle of the Romantic Zone in downtown Puerto Vallarta....

Pros: The staff was helpful and anything you needed from adventure to taxi they could arrange!

Cons: Clean sheets

Pros: location is great.......only steps away from 5 or 6 ( Didnt really count ) excellent restraunts. Close enough to the beach to walk to it in a few miinutes

Pros: Peace and quiet rooms

Cons: Staff by pool

Pros: location

Cons: yes, our room was wide open when we returned from the pool, at night again someone tried to open our room at 2 am

Pros: Good service and cleaning, fresh towels every day!!

Pros: breakfast was good.and diner.

Cons: I don like to talk about time share.I lost May Day.

Pros: It was a great family friendly resort. The staff was very friendly & helpful-all of the time!

Pros: Pool area and facilities were nice

Cons: Garden view room was very noisy with music from the lobby, and noise from other guests. Had to pay for a room upgrade to get a quieter room Hotel staff attempted to enter room multiple times without notice.

Pros: Great Buffett selection & price was good if you didn’t select to have food inclusive. The fiesta night was a lot of fun. Pool was very nice.

Cons: After check in we were greeted by a lady who sat us down at a table & we were told she would be giving us a tour of the hotel & amenities. She wrote on a map a bunch of stuff & then told us the next morning we would get a complimentary breakfast & a bunch of other free stuff & to “thank us for our time” we would have to sit through a 90min presentation/tour. Right off the bat we knew it was a sales pitch to purchase a time share. They hooked us though with the freebies so we figured why not. Right away the sales lady asked who was in the market & we said no one, we’re here for the free stuff. We made it very clear we weren’t going to buy a timeshare. Once we got done with walking around they walked us to a room that felt like a car dealership office. Once they started trying to talk numbers we said no & wanted to get on with our vacation. We had to go through 4 different people after we kept telling each one NO before we could leave. This all started at 9:30am & we finally left at 12:30!

Pros: I didn’t eat at any of the restaurants.. All inclusive was too expensive

Cons: I felt like I was being pressured to do a time share presentation when I first arrived, I was very tired and the lady lied about most everything.

Pros: The installations. The service.

Cons: The Wifi is not free I had to pay for it

Cons: Too many flies at the buffett, i ask them to put a fan so they wont be landing in the food. They said they had talk to the manager and they were taking care of the problem. I stayed there for 1 hr they never put the fan and the flies were still landing i

Pros: Nice, modern room, great view overlooking ocean, clean, fair size.

Cons: on NYE no room service (despite inclusive package--was not informed about limitations for NYC) from at least 11pm until 3am. and certain bar areas were closed during these times. Understand it was a special occasion, but it was an unforeseen inconvenien

Pros: great location walking distance to downtown, excellent breakfast, always fresh towels for the pool, service at the pool, rich breakfast and extremely nice staff, bus stop in front of the hotel, Starbucks in the house, very clean,m nice shop in hotel, pharmacy across the street, ATM in hotel

Cons: payable internet, crazy prices at the spa, money exchange only with ID

Pros: Very clean and friendly staff

Cons: The top bar needs more ambience. Very empty everyone seemed to go to blue chairs instead.

Pros: Location, they finished the roof top and gym. Still waiting for the on-site pool.

Cons: Nothing negative stands out

Pros: The easy access to the beach as the GLBT friendly staff

Cons: Nothing! All was great

Pros: It was a short two day stay that I felt the universe led the way!! Incredible room!!! Jacuzzi bathtub right next to king size bed......seriously dump and roll with relaxation!! Balcony looking at the ocean. It is so great....you are not 'IN' town/PV but just a short walking distance.....which i appreciated!! I did not get to take advantage of the AWEsome restaurant and bar lounge on roof top view enough!!! The beach accommodations and play were brilliant!!!I Spa services I didn't get to check out just cause I wasn't aware!!! Prices completely reasonable and would've done!!! In short....would love to go back and spend more time!!! Highly recommended to all my friends. Best place for any single girl to enjoy safely and righteously!!!!

Cons: I was pretty satisfied.....

Pros: Location to beach

Cons: ALL rooms have an ocean view, except X15 rooms. Unknowingly, I booked the one set of rooms that doesn't view the ocean. I've stayed here before and never knew there were non-ocean facing rooms, and the website didn't make that clear. We were there one night, and when asked to be moved, they wanted $80 more. It was already over-priced and not worth the value, in my opinion.

Cons: The compulsory timeshare presentation they make you go to. Just say no - you don’t want to be passed to the concierge - you want to go to your rooms!

Pros: Location and pool

Cons: Constantly being asked to sit thru a sales presentation

Pros: Perfect location for accessing the beach and romantic zone restaurants and shopping.

Pros: I liked the access to the beach club Mantamar. The rooftop bar is beautiful and the staff there were excellent.

Cons: I didn't like they wanted to charge me an extra $65 for a second guest, when the reservation was for 2. I also did not like the surprise at check out that the in room coffee came at a charge. Staff in general were not as helpful as I would have imagined. Also spending 20 mins having to listen about the vacation club was irritating. My room adjoined another and there was no sound insulation between the 2 rooms. I had to listen to the neighbors partying until 1am when I finally slept from exhaustion.

Pros: Spectacular views and great amenities.

Cons: Only thing I found lacking was the gym equipment, but even that had a perfect view.

Pros: Staff are friendly, resort was clean and beautiful

Cons: Room was right under the Skybar every morning at 7:45am the staff are dragging the chairs across the floors which you hear everything, called front desk they advised me to call the skybar to tell them to quite down, to me why does the guest have to call that’s ridiculous! But they knew we were staying in that room for 6 nights and everyday I had to call them. I didn’t know it was a timeshare property so we as a paying guest could not use the top jacuzzi at mantamar bar it was for “members” only so that was not right for me as I spent thousands of dollars to stay at this property.

Pros: The views, rooms, and rooftop bar with jacuzzis are a plus. I enjoyed the modern room design and the check in process was seamless. Pool and beach are across from property and easily accessible via hotel! Location is less than 5 mins drive to shops and restaurants in the romantic zone (old town).

Cons: Wish I could stay longer!

Pros: Central and close to everything but very noisy

Cons: 1- Very noisy as it is just on the main street in Malecon 2- slow wifi 3- need renovation

Pros: Everything and everyone

Pros: Clean, comfortable and close to beach

Pros: Being in the heart of the city. Walk to cathedral, bus to Arches for snorkelling, local authentic Emilio Zapata market. Family owned restaurants

Cons: Main city street noise. Get room off Main street

Pros: The staff. The location. The restaurant.

Cons: The air-conditioning system seemed to be quite old, with a unit in each room. Which filled with water which became moldy - the room reeked of mold after several days and I had to change rooms. I tried not to use the A/C much to avoid the problem but the moldy smell appeared there, too. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to mold!

Pros: Staff very ftiendly. Bed comfortable. Restaurant on site was delicious. Near lots of activities in old town

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Super séjour thank you Raphael one of the waiter who recommended the hotel and for the good service.

Cons: Rien

Pros: The location, right off the Malecon. The food in the restaurant was tasty and the waiter/waitresses did a good job.

Cons: Pool was too cold to enjoy and the stairs and changing floor levels were a challenge because we are handicapped. The next Hotel we stay at will have an elevator.

Pros: The staff of the hotel are all very friendly and go above and beyond to make you feel 100% comfortable! Alejandro and Edwardo we're at the front desk and they went above our expectations!! Definitely recommend this hotel to everyone! We will definitely be back to Puerto Vallarta and for sure will stay here!

Pros: The staff in the front desk our nice

Pros: Staff and location were amazing. It's one street away from the Malecon, but it's not as busy. The restaurant was great as well. You get amazing food for a decent price and it's not as busy as all of the restaurants on the boardwalk. You can enjoy your meal in peace.

Cons: Beds were tiny.

Pros: Location of property convenience to places of interest, shopping and dining.
