"First tip I can give you is to have a ride already arranged through Expedia roundup. They are amazing at pick up and drop off an ensure you’ll make your trip to the airport. Once you do this walk out the airport DO NOT stop keep going and your ride share grayline be outside. In the airport they will harass you for transportation. At the resort - Miguel is my absolute favorite bartender. Luis is my favorite bellboy. The place is amazing.. I miss them lol . I didn’t get to tip as much as I wanted to… be sure to bring American dollars or pesos because it’s very hard to find an atm or tip them though Apple Pay etc, but there is one close by. Maybe 5 mins away. When I come back I will repay them for the amazing service and kindness they provided. I love puerto Vallarta and this was my first time to Mexico ever, cannot to wait to go back and do some yacht excursions!!"

I’d stay again but the entire 9days they didn’t change the sheets. They just kept remaking the bed. Also you have to check out an iron and they don’t give wash clothes. Not a resort more of a hotel. Otherwise not bad."

"Our stay was pretty good. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The property was well maintained and the food was very good. Unfortunately we went during low season and it was quieter than we hoped for our kiddo to find a kid to play with and the Kids Club seemed very quiet. The pool is nice but not so kid friendly (like lots of places to socialize but not necessarily for kids fun with a slide or splash area). The room was very nice (well decorated, plenty of space, all the details accounted for) but the bed was pretty hard for our liking. One thing I loved about our stay, the resort collects olive ridley sea turtle nests to protect them from predators on the beach then releases them into the bay when they hatch, so I saw that one morning."
