We loved our stay at Rivera del Rio. Our room was great (Zelda). We loved sitting on the balcony enjoying the sound of the river and watching people go by. We also loved the rooftop pool and bar. Ruben is the best! And Victor was an amazing host and helped us book another stay while we were there.

The staff, particularly Javier, Reuben and Ivan were all so friendly and passionate about making the hotel inviting and fun. I love the housecats (Francesca and Elizabeth), the decor, the comfortable bed, the balcony, the infinity pool on the roof! Some of the best cocktails I had in PV were made by Reuben at the pool bar. The breakfast was included with the deluxe room and it was delicious! The hotel is located right by the river so you get an incredible view, nice breeze and a front row seat to wildlife (birds, iguanas, geckos, so many dogs and cats). It's also close to everything - restaurants, shopping, chocolatiers, lavandarias, and it's a 15 min walk to the beach. When I come back again to PV I won't stay anywhere else.
