Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta - All-inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the resort, polite service. My only complaint is that they do have to get a handle on the chair saving at the pools. We gave up as I wasn’t willing to wake up at 5am and set down stuff. Plus I find it rude."

Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa

Luxury Villa on the Best Swimming Beach in Puerto Vallarta w/ Full Staff & Pool

10/10 Excellent

"You can not a better vacation house. This is the second time our large family of 19 stayed at the house. You can not beat the pool on the beautiful beach. The staff are absolutely amazing. They take care of you- it’s a true vacation. Two meals a day, no dish duty, a pitchers of margaritas brought to the pool side for the adults and pins colada for the kids. House has plenty of room and all the walls are thick so you don’t hear every noise. They help help arrange everything you need from transfers, in house massages, and excursions. It is just magical. Can’t wait to go back again. We also had a medical emergency with a family member when we were there. The staff helped get the ambulance and even rode with us to help translate. They truly take care of you and will be forever grateful to them."

Costa Sur All Inclusive Classico Collection by Sonesta

10/10 Excellent

"We love this hotel and have stayed here three times. We deeply regret their decision to become an all inclusive this Spring. Puerto Vallarta is a great place to go out to eat and enjoy the town, we are not interested in staying in the hotel all the time or paying for food we wont eat. I hope they reconsider this decision, we would return if they did."
