Top Puerto Vallarta Hotel Reviews

Hotel Tropicana - Near Olas Altas Street

8/10 Good

"Bed was very hard. Beach beautiful. No real resort amenities not sure why they charge a resort fee: the room card on your wrist gets really nasty fast. I’d stay again but the entire 9days they didn’t change the sheets. They just kept remaking the bed. Also you have to check out an iron and they don’t give wash clothes. Not a resort more of a hotel. Otherwise not bad."

Melia Puerto Vallarta - All inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We loved it, especially having small children. It was a great time with many things to do and lots of food options."

Barceló Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"A great resort with a beautiful view. The staff is friendly and helpful. We stayed in the grand master suite which is spacious and comfortable. The food is great. Really loved the hand made tacos at lunch and Luis’ special focaccia and calzones. Amazing!! Cesar in the premier lounge will make you feel so special. They have fun evening shows. A decent gym with cardio and weight options. And the buffet also has a lot of options. Some of the restaurants have dress codes so plan accordingly. The hotel is very eco friendly which is great. However, the bathrooms only provide shampoo and body wash. So bring conditioner if you need it. We have stayed here quite a few times and it is truly one of our favorite resorts. We will definitely return."

Velas Vallarta Suites Resort All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Our stay was pretty good. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The property was well maintained and the food was very good. Unfortunately we went during low season and it was quieter than we hoped for our kiddo to find a kid to play with and the Kids Club seemed very quiet. The pool is nice but not so kid friendly (like lots of places to socialize but not necessarily for kids fun with a slide or splash area). The room was very nice (well decorated, plenty of space, all the details accounted for) but the bed was pretty hard for our liking. One thing I loved about our stay, the resort collects olive ridley sea turtle nests to protect them from predators on the beach then releases them into the bay when they hatch, so I saw that one morning."

Buenaventura Grand Hotel & Great Moments - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We have a great stay! Very clean and the staff was all amazing! Breakfast was great at the buffet and the sunset restaurant. Otherwise the food was just okay. We planned on dining out anyways so that wasn’t a problem. Location is awesome walkable too every where we wanted to go. Otherwise a cheap uber ride away."

Playa Los Arcos Hotel Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I travel to Vallarta at least twice a year and my first choice is always this hotel everything is just great"

Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta - All-inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"."

Krystal Vallarta

10/10 Excellent

"Me gustó que el hotel contara con dos restaurantes, lo único que no chequé antes de reservar esque el hotel no está frente a la playa, hay que caminar para llegar a la playa pero está bien no estaba muy lejos, caminas por el establecimiento del mismo"

Villa Premiere Boutique Hotel & Romantic Getaway

10/10 Excellent

"I was expecting the infinity pool to be running but the pool was little dirty with insects. I spent 5 nights which I would recommend as after 5 nights your food choices became limited. The atmosphere was very relaxing and all staff were super friendly and accommodating. I will definitely go back someday ."
