Delta Hotels by Marriott Riviera Nayarit, An All-Inclusive Resort
The resort was awesome! Very clean, large amount of pools, great selection of restaurants, and super friendly and fun staff. The only thing I would suggest is more activities at night.

Hotel Riu Jalisco - All Inclusive
So many great eating options. Lots of sunny and shaded areas to lounge. Entertainment every evening. The resort allowed you to be as relaxed or busy as you wanted to be. Large areas for kids and adults alike. We would definitely look at a RIU resort again for our vacation.

Paradise Village Beach Resort and Spa
The maid did not leave towels, soap, and toilet paper some days. The pool concierge just takes your towels and clothes and moves them, and is very rude.
