The noise of hammering on the roof above our room for nearly a week, and after repeated efforts to have them move us they finally stopped the workers. Our room was tiny and the bathroom even smaller….my husband had to sit sideways on the toilet…..the room we chose online looked way bigger. The maid was great but only if we tipped her every day! We forgot for a couple of days and got no towels, or bath mat. Everyone was polite enough but we weren’t impressed with the restaurant. Coffee was weak and tasteless. Will not stay there again.

This is a 2-3star hotel. The location is great and the staff are good but the rooms are very old and tired (with sketchy plumbing and AC); and the food is mediocre at best and too expensive given all the options around the hotel. If you’re looking for a cheap party place, this is it. If you’re looking for a quiet oasis retreat, keep looking 🙄

One of the best beach front locations in Zona Romantica. Nice beach facing adult pool, great restaurants: Mi Pueblito for breakfast, Mar Y Vino for pool dining with a view and IK Mixology and lounge chairs on the sand.

The room was quite musty and very dark and not actually big enough for 4 people. The set up was also awkward and we didnt have a balcony despite having one jn the room photos. The pool and beach are amazing and the staff are very kind. The food and drink has gotten much more expensive. Overall it is a good place to stay in viejo vallarta with kids but i think the competition fro. Other hotels and rentals is outstripping this resort.

Room was old and dirty, cigarette holes in curtains, fridge was bare silver on top when opened gave a shock, food was really disappointing, same thing over and over and everything in sauces, and nothing seemed fresh, this was really disappointing because my previous trip everything was great I stayed at sister hotel, the only upside is the staff was great. I will Maybe consider finding somewhere else next year, I’m so disappointed.
