"We were very happy with the food and the room service option. The property is beautiful. We did have a hard time getting hot water in the shower. The bed and pillows could have been more comfortable. But, overall, this was one of my favorite places I've ever srayed. "
Oceanfront 9th-floor condo with balcony, water views & pool
10/10 Excellent
"This place was absolutely perfect for our family getaway! The home is modern, chic, and incredibly comfortable. As a family of five, we had more than enough space to relax and enjoy ourselves. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and there was always someone at the lobby available to help with anything we needed.On our first day, we noticed the hot water wasn't working and the coffee carafe was missing. We called the front desk, and both issues were addressed immediately — great service!The rooftop pool is stunning, and our 10-year-old loved spending time in the family pool on the first floor. The views from the property are absolutely spectacular! Every morning, my husband and I enjoyed our coffee on the deck while taking in the breathtaking scenery, and in the evenings, we were treated to gorgeous sunsets.The location is about a 25-minute drive through a scenic, winding road to Zona Romántica. We were glad to have a rental car, but taxis, buses, and Uber are also available for those who prefer not to drive.Highly recommend — we’d stay here again in a heartbeat!"
"I wanted to take my time before writing this review. My partner and I traveled to Puerto Vallarta specifically to stay at the Xinalani Hotel Retreat—the photos looked stunning. We booked the king suite for its private pool and outdoor shower, aiming for a peaceful, private birthday celebration.
We expected some bugs, as the website warns about them, so a dragonfly in our suite wasn’t a big deal. But from check-in, we noticed a foul sewage-like smell in the room. When we brought it up, the afternoon manager dismissed our concern, blaming the ocean or possibly a dead animal—off-putting, to say the least. The odor wasn't constant, but with the open-air design, it returned often. Later, we found the smell came from the path beneath our suite.
Other issues included collapsing furniture—one piece even hit me—and a mouse in the suite on checkout day. For a place marketed as a luxury retreat, these issues were unacceptable. What frustrated us most was the management’s tendency to explain away problems instead of resolving them.
Despite amazing waitstaff and a great daytime manager on 4/18, the overall experience was disappointing. My rule is: would I go back? Sadly, no. Too many problems, not enough accountability. It’s a hard pass."
"Our stay was comfortable, the view was beautiful. I found a hammock on the patio which was a fun place to relax. There wasn’t much fancy or extra but it was good enough for a good sleep and relaxation when we were there. We didn’t try to cook there. It does have a large refrigerator and jug of bottled water. Communication and how to check in was a little slow but we figured it out just fine. It was fun going across the little river on the makeshift bridge. The river trickling right outside was nice, the mountains and all the beautiful flowers were our view. We loved hiking to the hidden beaches. "
