Velas Vallarta Suites Resort All Inclusive

Velas Vallarta Suites Resort All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"All areas of the resort were well taken care of and clean. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. Food and drinks were good. The nightly entertainment was professional, appropriate and wrapped up early enough to not be a noise problem. I would definitely recommend this resort and would consider returning "
