When in Puerto Villarta stay here if you like a charming mexican atmosphere. The hotel is located close to every venue in PV, the staff are the best. They take the time to cater your needs, the rooms need upgrading but the staff and location makes up for it. Ty Cesar

If i were to rate it from 1-10 (10 being the best) i would give this property a 4.5 . There is no wifi in your room only wifi at the lobby and by the pool. In 2024 hard to think hotels dont have wifi in your room . The food that was provided at the pool side was just cheap stuff like fries , hotdog, burgers. Thats it. The food the was provided at the buffet was not any better. If anyone were to read this please just spend and extra 200-300 bucks more and get a nicer resort.

It’s a dated hotel, but it’s charming. The food is excellent. Truly authentic Mexican food and had several different options everyday. My kids, 8, 11 and 16 lived their food, but they eat Mexican food anyways. Maybe they should incorporate quesadillas and chicken nuggets for kids that don’t eat much Mexican food. I wish it was beach front, but you can walk about 10 minutes to the beach. It is not so nice at the area of the beach, but it’s ok… our toilet wouldn’t flush properly and we called but it wasn’t fixed. We would literally have to crank it for it to flush. The pool is nice, the snack bar is good and the drinks were great. Overall good experience.

The hotel has the hacienda theme and is not very big - a plus for me, but may not be for everyone. The staff is friendly and helpful but waiters are very slow and don't seem to be overly busy. Several times I got up myself to pour myself a coffee refill or to gran a set of utensils from their stations. Breakfast was fine, but still if you're no an egg eater you may find it challenging. Dinner buffet was worst I've seen at any resort. Very few choices, food was not looking or tasting well, looked old and dried up from being heated for hours. Pizza was so dried up that it looked like it was there for days, which I am sure was not the case. I would still visit but if the price was right and I would only get the breakfast option and skip the all inclusive.

10/10 Exceptional

we (a couple) loved our stay! the rooms were very clean and comfortable with great AC, the beach was a short walk away (there was also a shuttle to and from the beach), open bar at the beach was great, the hotel is right next to the port and the supermarket, and all of the staff were extremely welcoming and kind. The buffet was so good and had a great variety! While traditional mexican cuisine was the highlight, they also had an asian food night and a night where they grilled up some nopal, meats, and veggies! We would absolutely return. One downside was the timeshare guy that held us up for a while when we first arrived, we had to repeatedly say we weren’t interested for him back off about it.

Tuvimos una amena estadía , pero si me gustaría señalar la necesidad de remodelar los baños, y mejorar las recetas de la comida del buffet, en una de las noches los vegetales salteados estaban dañados , el calor en el dinning area era intolerable…..

This was my 1st trip to PV and this was a good choice for the price. I really did not know what to expect but it definitely exceeded expectation. Enjoyed the Friday night cultural presentation at the lobby. Family friendly hotel. I would say definitely a Mexican Charm. Buffet was very good and main dishes changed everyday I was there. Walmart is just walking distance away. Bus stop is also close by and very convenient to take a bus down to the Romantic Zone and the airport. Bus fare is only 10 Mexican Pesos to the Malecon or the airport, just take note of rush hours and buses can be crowded. Overall, was a great stay.

2/10 Poor

Definitely not worth what I paid. Rooms are dated and need repairs. We switched rooms twice. TV from last room we were in was broken, contacted desk personnel and said it’ll be repaired but they failed to do so. We had to call the next day and they finally sent someone to replace broken TV. Food is always the same thing, no variety whatsoever and it doesn’t even taste good. We ended up not eating at the hotel after a couple days since the food was not great.
