Top Puerto Vallarta Hotel Reviews

Buenaventura Grand Hotel & Great Moments - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great"

Barceló Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Pasamos unas vacaciones en familia muy agradables. Desde nuestra llegada el personal se portó excelente durante el proceso de checkin, reservaciones para cenas y atención general. El cuarto lo mantuvieron limpio y atendieron a todas nuestras peticiones. La comida fue muy variada y en su mayoría muy buena. Solo algunos platillos faltaron a los estándares pero en general los restaurantes Los Arcos, Don Quijote y Capri ofrecieron excedentes cenas. Los bares cuentan con bartenders experimentados y que pueden preparar un buen trago. Las albercas bien y la playa excelente para nadar, además del servicio gratis de kayak. Definitivamente lo recomiendo para vacaciones familiares o con niños."

Hotel Tropicana - Near Olas Altas Street

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. There were a couple of things that weren't in the room. 1: No refrigerator in the room. Not good if you have young kids or babies. Also no place to refrigerate leftovers from restaurants. 2: No microwave in the room. They had air-conditioning in the room. It was a lifesaver. It was a nice place to stay though. I would stay there again."
