Hotel Casa Iguana Mismaloya

8/10 Good

"I liked the fact that it was walking distance to the beach."

Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is fantastic as usual, but please bring back your great Mexican seafood you had back in the days… (to many hot dogs and dry burgers) And it’s definitely not the fault of personal. You just changing your concept. Shrimp tacos, ceviche and aqua chile became I little less exciting than before"

Villa Ventura 5 Star Luxury,Fully Staffed,Private Pool,Private Beach

10/10 Excellent

"I booked the Villa Ventura for my daughter’s bachelorette 4 day long wknd. 12 women were invited. Seven of us ended up being able to go. We all got our own bedroom suite. The moment you arrived to this stunning villa you knew you were in a magical place. The views were magnificent! The Mexican Latin decor charm so tastefully done. We were immediately greeted by our host Patricia, who was always available for my many questions and happily obliged. The house chef and his crew were impeccable!! Every meal was so delicious and a delight! Not to mention he made amazing margaritas! Every morning we woke to a clean space and the smell of breakfast cooking. The pool area was a fun place for us to play and have some girl time. The water in the pool was always clean and cool, which we needed as it was very hot. Whenever we needed an Uber it was easy to get one within ten minutes or so. I highly recommend this Villa! I would go back in a heartbeat. I miss it already!"

Hotel Mousai Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk, The bellman helped me with my luggage, the suttle driver, the trolley drivers were amazing, they gives us great welcome, and excellent service.
