Top Playa Estaca Hotel Reviews

Hilton Vallarta Riviera All-Inclusive Resort, Puerto Vallarta

10/10 Excellent

"The property and amenities were great. The pools need to be re-tiled or have the tile repaired. The swim-up bar was crowded most of the time. Drinks take longer a swim-up bar since they only had two bartenders preparing drinks. You will receive your drinks faster if you request them with the servers."

Hotel Tropicana - Near Olas Altas Street

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great!"

Playa Los Arcos Hotel Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I really liked this hotel; it made my vacation amazing. It is right on the beach and close to everything. The rooms were nice and clean, the staff was attentive, and there were good restaurants, bars, and live music. I would definitely recommend it. I can't wait to come back here."

Hotel Boutique Luxury Patio Azul

10/10 Excellent

"PERFECTA estancia. La habitation “Agave”, esta HERMOSA! Definitivamente vamos a volver a Puerto Vallarta, y nuestro hotel sera Patio Azul Hotelito Boutique."

Quinta Maria Cortez Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at Quinta Maria Cortez. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. Our rooms were clean and maintained by the staff throughout our stay. Multiple pool options on different levels allowed us a great variety with incredible views. The restaurant and restaurant staff were so kind. The food was very good. The bartender checked in on us often and made sure we always had cold drinks and stayed hydrated. Whether we were at the pool by the restaurant, the rooftop pool, or even on the beach he was there to serve us with a smile. We have stayed in many hotels in Puerto Vallarta and this is our new favorite. We are looking forward to coming back and bringing friends!"

ESCAPE to MEXICO -- LOWER RATES Small Villa Ocean Views, Private Pool w Terrace

10/10 Excellent

"I was incredibly impressed with this property from start to finish. Communication with the staff was excellent from the moment I booked, and the home was welcoming, spotless, and very comfortable. It had everything we needed, including a washer and dryer, excellent air conditioning, and all the bathroom amenities you could ask for. The property truly went above and beyond.A very special mention goes to Maria, whose warmth and kindness made our stay unforgettable. She kept everything beautifully clean, even helped with our laundry, and welcomed us with a delicious bowl of guacamole, pico de gallo, and ridiculously good chips. On our last night, she prepared a beautiful candlelight dinner with parrot fish and an incredible homemade sauce. The next morning, she surprised us with a sealed jar of the sauce so we could take some home!Thank you as well to our host, Sandy, who had everything so thoughtfully organized, from the house instructions to the recommendations. It made the entire stay feel effortless.I highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again the next time I visit Puerto Vallarta!"

Gorgeous 4 Bedroom/4 Bath on White Sand Swimming Beach

"Wonderful location, great price and host was quick to respond."

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

10/10 Excellent

"Villa Ventura was the perfect setting for the vacation of my dreams! From our first walk down the stairs, I knew it would be beyond what we imagined from the photos. Every night we fell asleep to the sound of the waves and every morning we woke up to the smell of an amazing breakfast prepared by the incredible Chef Beto. Danny and Daniel made sure the house ran smoothly and we didn’t have a single worry. Afternoons were spent laughing by the pool as Danny created the most perfect piña coladas and prepped for another phenomenal meal. All the while, Rosario and Alicia made the house sparkle! Planning was so easy with the help of Nora and Patricia. And don’t forget to schedule a service with Jaz and the expert spa team. With town only a few moments away, we had plenty of options for shopping or a night out—but it was hard to leave the luxury of this PERFECT villa. If you are considering a stay, DO IT! Villa Ventura is truly a magical place."
