We stayed in the Carlotta. This is a ground level suite. The set up was perfect for a family. Air conditioning worked amazingly for how hot it was. Our room was always cleaned impeccably and we were provided with fresh linen and towels daily. Only note is you will hear outside noise and noise from above rooms occasionally, however it didn’t bother any of us. Really loved the location! Walkable to many different places for food and drink and to the beach. Easy to catch an uber for further excursions. Would totally recommend and can’t wait to stay in the others suites!

Needs complete remodeling, big apartment but very old. Did not feel comfortable staying there. Not safe for kids because they could fall from the room and stairs. Baby crib from the 80s that no kid could sleep in we were charged for it but they did remove the charge after speaking to them. The staff were nice. They do lock the entrance door so it’s safe to stay there. Big kitchen has everything you need

An absolutely stunning hotel with the most amazing staff! Carolina and Javier are some of the best front desk managers I have ever had the pleasure to stay with! The rooms are spectacular and so unique! The roof top pool with the most personable bartender Jesus made you feel like you were right at home! Breakfast was included in my second stay and was super delicious in an insanely gorgeous room with balcony views. I will stay here over and over again! So grateful and thankful to have found this hidden gem! 5 Stars across the board!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The hotel seemed really unique online. However, the photos made it seem much more clean than it actually was. There were cats in the lobby (great if you're a cat person). The pool seems misrepresented too. It's very small. However, it has a nice small bar there with a friendly bartender. My room was acceptable but required walking up a small, narrow, twisted staircase, which made it difficult to bring items up and down safely. I ate breakfast upstairs one morning (I only had toast, coffee, and fruit). The staff there did not seem very friendly. There's a beautiful river and trail outside, but I did not find it convenient getting around. There was really not a lot of close dining nightlife without taking a walk. I decided to check out two days early because all night there seemed to be a gurgling and knocking sound, almost like water draining from a wash machine. It was so loud that I could not sleep. I spoke to management about it and they said that had never happened before. I was not offered any sort of refund (even partial) for my remaining two days, so I just considered it a loss.

I can’t recommend this hotel enough. Javier at the front desk was amazing, and Jesus at the bar was awesome. Elizabeth, the hotel cat, was adorable as well. The room was so clean and had so much character. We enjoyed the rain shower and beautiful bathroom, in addition to our balcony with stunning views of PV. The couples massage in the room was one of of the best we’ve ever had - highly recommend. The infinity pool and bar was amazing. It was hot when we came so the A/C was wonderful in the room. Everything in Zona Romantica was within a 15 minute walk. We were tucked away by the river which was quaint, but just blocks away from bars and entertainment. We will be back as soon as we can— You MUST stay here!

This hotel has become our favorite in Puerto Vallarta. It’s has the feel of staying at a family member’s house. With an infinity pool that has a great view. All of the staff is outstanding however Javier at the front desk goes above and beyond when it comes to personal service. He quickly notices that my husband and I drink a lot of coffee and arranged to put a coffee maker in our room without us even requesting one. The entire staff shares the same desire to make every guest feel at home. For this reason I will stay in this beautiful hotel every time!
