Pleasant experience. Older hotel, but very clean. Initial room given was too noisy. Told by desk it would take two days to move. Husband spoke to manager next morning, and we were moved to very quiet location. Food just o.k. Nothing to brag about. Beach lovely. Enjoyed the adult pool very much. Very comfortable environment. Would visit again.

Mental health break

  • a cowboy in the jungle Verified Customer
  • 10 Jan 2012
1/10/11 This hotel is a good value in a great location. I was there for 5 quick days by myself, kind of a mental health break if you will. The staff was wonderful, making a single traveler feel welcome even in a place that seems best suited for couples. The food and drink were basic but very good and served by a staff that really seems to care. The rooms, while somewhat dated were clean and functional. Overall it’s a good solid value and well worth the price.

great value for a safe authentic place

  • frogg Verified Customer
  • 30 Jul 2011
the hotel is in the southern part of the hotel zone a block away from romantic zone were most of the real mexican places are. on the beach. nice pool. safe rooms with security always around. parking was on the street, never had a problem finding a spot. a block or three from grocery store, gas station,taco stands and souvenior shopping. breakfast buffet was edible and enough to get the day started. roads are rough to drive on in this area, and 5-10 minutes to marina, walmart, and airport. we did excursions everday, so didnt spend much time in room during the day, however tv had a few english channels, air conditoner was cold, showers were hot, and internet worked just fine on top floor. if your looking for more comfort like a mini-fridge, hot tub, ice machine, or fully english speaking staff then you should look else where. but beach was clean, water cool, and neighborhood was realtivly safe. we got a cooler from walmart, ice for 1.50 at the grocery, beer from the convience store, and tacos from the stands and had a awesome adventure. mind you we also went in the slow season.

Great place

  • TSWTW Verified Customer
  • 27 Dec 2011
I have usually stayed in more luxurious (well, more expensive) hotels in PV. I decided to try El Pescador and I'll be staying there from now on. Very, very clean. Not a bug in site. Great drinks and food at the resto (except the breakfast, which is only just okay; I wish they had fresh fruit). Really nice staff. I'd say the guests were about 50/50 Mexicans and foreigners. It's true there are no refrigerators or safes in the room, but I got a cooler across the street and saved money that way. I also just kept my valuables in the safe at the desk. It's also true there are not enough chairs by the pool, but deal with it! If you need to be pampered and flattered, this isn't the place. If you just want a great, clean, happy, reasonable hotel, this is it.

Room Service: Open whenever our kitchen is, anything can be brought to your room, suite or poolside anytime. Just give us a ring! Exceptional Value is more than just a slogan, we're working it into every aspect of Casa Cupula and Dining is first on the list.

Super friendly staff, very casual but respectful. Some people warn about the walk - it's a VERY short walk to the beach, and nice to be away from the loud crowds. Tina, the concierge (manager?) is terrific and full of good advice. Strongly recommend, and we'll most likely go back. Restaurant is v good too.

Honeymoon in Mexico

  • Dan and Don Verified Customer
  • 10 Oct 2011
We went to PV for our honeymoon. Our room was very large with a spacious covered, outdoor, veranda that overlooked Banderas Bay and the beautiful sunsets. The room had a surround sound system to play our ipods and the bathroom had a huge, mexican-tiled, sunken shower. The staff were ultra friendly and the restaurant on site "Taste" was one of the best meals we had in PV. Also, the on site gym was hands down the best I've ever had in a guest house or hotel. Every room is unique and very nicely decorated. The location affords amazing views from its mountainside location although the walk into the town center is down a steep hill and a two block walk along a curving highway without pedestrian sidewalks. Our air conditioning unit was a little noisy and had a tough time keeping up with the hot PV days in low season but we would not hesitate to spend our next PV vacation at Casa Cupula.

Outstanding stay

  • Barry B. Verified Customer
  • 26 Jan 2012
We just returned from a wonderful two week stay at the Marriott in Puerto Vallarta. Located near the marina, the hotel is quite and only about a twenty minute ride to the excitement of the town. The rooms are clean, comfortable and generous in size. What sets this hotel apart from others is the friendly, accommodating staff. Without exception, the waiters, bellmen, pool attendants, chambermaids, front desk clerks and concierge go out of their way to serve your needs and be helpful in any way possible. My only complaint is the weak, uneven wifi service.

Had a great time at Dreams. The food and service was better than I expected. The seafood was top quality. We had a smaller room in the old tower. The room was small, old looking, but clean and well kept. I spoke with other guests and there are nicer rooms available but we didnt spend much time in the room anyway. Too much fun outside!

Great for families! But here's some unpublished info..

  • laforge2001 Verified Customer
  • 12 Jan 2012
We traveled in a relatively large group. It was about 3 families going together. What the hotel doesn't really tell you is that there is an extra charge if you want your room cleaned (about $12/service), there is an extra charge if you want wireless internet in your room(about $8/night) and you only get one reservation at one of the 3 onsite restaurants. Of course, they have a "Premium Club" that you can join that will give you all those things for free at a cost of another $60 per night. It turns out to be a decent deal if you already had a bargain package vacation deal to begin with, but it would have been nice to know these limitations beforehand. With the premium club, in addition to receiving all the previous things for free (along with unlimited reservations to the restaurants), you get a top floor room that has TWO bedrooms and two bathrooms! So, if you plan to do the premium club option, don't make the mistake of booking multiple rooms for different families. It might even be better to call the hotel first to confirm before booking. Additionally, you also get a complimentary bottle of tequila, champagne and chocolates. You gain access to the "premium lounge" with your own personal concierge who can exchange cash for pesos, along with access to some top shelf alcohols that you can pour yourself. You also get a free city tour of puerto vallarta which was mostly pretty boring except for the end which was a tour of a tequila factory. The tour was informative but it felt like we were also stopping at the tour guide's buddies' businesses along the way. If you have kids you may want to buy some snacks and drinks at the drugstore across the street from the jewelry store stop. Because after that, it is a pretty long journey. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They did seem spread a little thin at the El Patio buffet area. So, we often had to flag people down to get some service. I would recommend going across the way to the los arcos side. We found the food at the El Patio side to be generally bland, with a few exceptions. In general, the restaurants onsite were nothing to write home about. The bars and bartenders were awesome and did not skimp on the alcohol at all. They were more than accomodating for things like warming up milk for the babies and what not. Even though we got our room cleaned for free, the maids often just took our old towels but did not replace them with anything. That was frustrating. Besides that, we liked the resort and would probably return.

We reserved 2 weeks at Arcos Suites six months ago. Overall, it was a good experience. However, when we arrived we were told by the desk clerk that the Suites were overbooked and we were sent to Lost Arcos Hotel a block away where the room was inferior to the one we initially reserved. We had to stay at the hotel for 4 days until a room became available at the suites.

Beach very nice... poolside very good too. Located in the heart of PV where all the fine restaurants are. The staff at all the properties were terrific... We've been going to PV for the past 10-12 years and stayed at a lot of different places. Los Arcos Suites will be our first choice in the future Enjoy your stay if you go there

A 5 star experience at 3 star prices

  • Cycle chain Verified Customer
  • 25 Dec 2011
This is the third or fourth time we've stayed here. The hotel is right on the beach in Puerto Vallarta. The Hotel offered a great deal and we took it. The Los Archos complex consists of 3 hotels. The staff is fluent in English, Spanish, Frence, German, etc. The main hotel, where we stayed, has been renovated (it was always clean, well appointed, and everything worked) and is a top spot for peso pinching visitors from other Mexican cities. This hotel is South of the main Plaza in Old Town. It is a safe, clean, well-priced location to really enjoy a MEXICAN vacation (not like the Miami experience in the Hotel Zone or Neuavo Vallarta. The neighborhood has city housing and million dollar condos, street food (tasty and, for us, healthy) and top-flight restaurants, etc. The South of the river side of PV is the place to be. It's 1/2 the cost of the "Hotel Zone," Marina, or NV but as much fun. P. S. PV is as SAFE as Minneapolis. The police were everywhere the tourists flocked and we even saw a few patrols of Naval Infantry (Marines) from the local Navy Base.

Perfect Mexican Hotel

This is a perfect, small Mexican family style hotel. The rooms are clean, the location is great and the staff is most attentive. The pools are clean and refreshing, the spa was delightful and priced right and the two iguanas living the in courtyard/on the roof are usually sleeping. The food, particularly breakfast and lunch were very good (AI) and the drinks were powerful. I will stay there again.

Presently and for the past few years there has been construction which is pretty much fine. Portion of property was now sold to Hilton so there was renovation of the pool area and the restarant on the beach was moved to lobby area. They built a new pool (family pool) and have an adult pool which was where the old pool was which they opened up on this past monday which was after we left. I wish Ihad been aware that the pool area was under construction so I could have scheduled my vacation a week later when it was opened up and the restaurant by the pool was open. There are new owners. I think when the renovation is complete it will be an excellant resort again.

The access to a quiet beach was ideal. That was my favorite part overall. The swimming pools and the front desk lobby were very attractive. I also loved that they always had a taxi ready for you and that there is a mini mall and supermarket within walking distance. It's about a 50 pesos cab ride to the city center and 80 pesos to the airport. Both a straight shot so location is pretty good. The concierge could be a little more informative though. It was difficult to get readily available information without having to ask a thousand questions first. Also, the overall look of the outside walls and balconys could use a little touch up. But all in all a nice stay. Felt like a secure area and was generally comfortable.

Hotel & Spa Buenaventura Puerto Vallarta

  • Diablita Verified Customer
  • 31 Dec 2011
I stayed here for a week with my two teenagers. We spend a lot of time in Mexico but always stay other places--Cuatro Vientos, Los Arcos, Casa dona Susanna--but stayed here just to try someplace different. We found the Buenaventura very nice--clean, good service, overall all a "pristine" tourist experience. The kids club looked fun and all the kids were engaged and closely supervised. We ate on the property three times--one breakfast, one lunch, and one dinner. We found the food clean and well prepared but totally uninspired--your basic sort of buffet/cafeteria stuff although we did have bar-b-que ribs that were tasty. The deserts were ok except for the little tres leches cake---those were very nice!! The free coffee in the lobby in the morning is a nice little touch and the pastries were fresh. But you can walk next door on the beach to El Barracuda and get much better food for half the price, or just wander down the Malecon and eat local specialties--corn with chili, roasted shrimps, mango on a stick--all the good stuff! Or hit any of the neighborhood places for excellent local food. The Buenaventura spa is nice but extremely overpriced--a mani-pedi is $1000 pesos. If you walk one block down the street to the neighborhood spa a mani pedi is $300 pesos; walk on downtown and it's $200 pesos. The Buenaventura is perfect for people who dont speak Spanish and just want to drink, play a few games of pool volleyball, relax by the pool, and basically just chill. It's great for a very sanitized version of Mexico. For people like me, it's way too bougie. It didn't feel any different than if I had been in San Diego or Orlando or any large sunny city hotel with a pool. Personally I don't see the point.

I can't say enough good things about this hotel. If you want value for money, especially "all-inclusive style", then this is it! Fantastic Location, both on the beach and downtown at the same time!. An endless supply of unbelievably good, well prepared food. Specialty full-service restaurants at no extra charge. Friendy, happy & helpful staff. Only two negatives, and these are very small in the overall experience: Noise from guests, especially inconsiderate ones, really travels along the inside corridors and penetrates into the bedrooms (think this is the inherent nature of the open constuction of the hotel). This is a great value hotel and at the weekends there can be an influx of guests whose noise, children and different cultural behaviour can be unsettling and annoying to the traveller seeking a relaxing and tranquil vacation.

My friend and I went to this resort over our Spring Break and were presently surprised. While the first day or two we were there there was hardly anyone else there, the more it went towards the weekend the busier it got. The nice thing though is that it was never over run. The food was just average, but the Marina has plenty of great good and is really safe to walk around in. The best part hands down of the experience was the staff though. They were happy and helpful and made the experience totally worth it.

This was our first time visiting Puerto Vallarta and loved it, where do we start? Hotel room was fine not the best for sure, but it served its purpose clean and good enough to sleep through the night, after all we only used it to sleep. Staff went well above and beyond we know all about food and hospitality and these people in general were great, especially Paul in the pool area and at the Nitro club Jaime was just great to say the least. Ofelia, the waiter at poolside was super awesome checking on you every few mins and making sure you were ok, and Noe at the Palapas rest. and the beach he was just great never let your cup go empty, we even saw him on his day off in down town, he asked if we were ok and if we needed help to just let him know. I don't know anybody in US that could do that, really do you? The hotel was really good, all the restaurants were great I think the best one was the french one. Overall great, the only thing was the presentation to sell you a membership to own time shares which was ok and we said no to it but the manager Eric was unprofessional, he was yelling at the young sales person in front of us not cool. Other than that we recommend this place for sure.

Convenient Base Camp

  • Happy Base Camper Verified Customer
  • 5 Dec 2011
I've stayed at Costa Sur twice. It appeals to me because it's perfectly located for a base camp or for just relaxing. It's on the beach, yet the bus stops in front and there's always a taxi available. It's far enough from town to ensure a little quiet and less vendors, yet it's an easy beach walk (about 2 mi.) to town. The pool area is relaxing and has a bar and outdoor restaurant. Popcorn is served at 5pm, and some nights have music and dancing. It attracts an older crowd, of which I'm sure I am probably MUCH too young to be part of. But I like to relax here, whether it's by the pool or from my room's ocean view balcony.

  • 3 Jan 2012
Garza Blanca is extremely beautiful and the rooms are wonderful with large balconies, a hammock and jacuzzi. The food was decent, the drinks fantastic (try the cucumber jalapeño margarita. We found service to be quite good, anything we asked for we received and the wait, pool and bell staff was extremely friendly and willing to assist with anything you needed. The ceviche and the fajitas at the pool were quite good. The food service is quite slow but we just knew to expect that. We had dinner at Blanca Blue one night it was so-so. We did the all inclusive which was a great value even with us going to town for dinners. The location is remote in that you cannot walk to any type of store and there is not one at the property so it is a good idea to have the taxi stop on your way to the hotel if you want to pick anything up. There is road noise but with all of the water features in the pools and the surf it was not that noticeable. We would return.

Nice but not a 5 star

  • Sally Sea Verified Customer
  • 13 Dec 2011
Positives: Beautiful small hotel. Rooms are more like condos than hotel rooms. Location is good. Beach is small but nice. Staff is nice. Like free shuttles to town 4x per day. Negatives: The Garza Blanca is building a large addition across the street and the construction noise was loud from morning til night...reversing trucks could be heard from the pool. While the rooms were very clean, the pool area and beach tables were often not cleanup up by 10:00 a.m. from the night before which we found sub-par. I would recommend this hotel, but think it is a 4 star versus a 5.

We didn’t think it was possible for hotel workers in Mexico to have a poor attitude, but they do here. Watch out for the extra charges on check out. If you are missing a towel, or key-card, any of the registration documents, or even if you didn’t wash your dishes, they will charge you. Room was nice but a bit dilapidated.

First time in PV.

  • LuckyJD79 Verified Customer
  • 21 Jan 2012
My expectations were low after reading a lot of the reviews. As a thirty something traveling solo, I found everything to be adequate and the staff extremely friendly. I billed three food/bar transactions to my room and I was charged properly. They didn't hesitate to give me the 10% discount on room charges that was advertised as part of my package. The requirement to wear a wristband is understandable given some of the security issues they mentioned (items being stolen by visitors). It was a little funky that I couldn't show my friends my room without paying a visitor fee. There is also a fee for having someone over for the night. This seems to be a common practice at the surrounding hotels. The experience was pleasant, but after learning the area, I'd consider staying somewhere else. You don't need to be on the beach, and as a local bar owner mentioned, they seem to be riding on their reputation for being the first gay resort on the beach.

Can be a good value

  • Jim711 Verified Customer
  • 2 Jan 2012
This is the second time I have stayed here and would highly recomend it IF you can get it for a 3 or 3.5 star price. Their beach was ruined by the last hurricane and is now very rocky so its difficult to actually swim in the ocean; but plenty of area to lay near the ocean and their pools are very nice. Probably one of the nicest hotels but don't overpay!

Great Holiday Vacation

  • FKchicago Verified Customer
  • 1 Jan 2012
We stayed at Villa Premiere from Dec 23 - 31. As usual, the staff is outstanding and very attentive to requests. Rooms are clean and comfortable. We only ate at the resort for breakfast or lunch as the Malecon with great dining options is a short walk away. The major benefit of this resort is the adults only format. No loud speaker music and games. Just adults chilling out. Will definitely return.

Our Honeymoon Was PERFECT!

  • Kelly N. Verified Customer
  • 23 Aug 2011
Wow. Where do I even start?? We picked this hotel because of a few reasons... 1. NO KIDS, 2. Location 3. Option of all-inclusive We were not dissapointed! We went during PV's rainy season, which we were a little nervous about, but it turned out that the rain and gloom didn't even start until sunset, and then we got the coolest lightening shows all night every night! The weather was nice every single day...up in the 90's with lots of humidity. Because we went during "off-season"...we were able to take advatage of there being less people at the hotel than there normally are. It's a small hotel (compared to the dreams resorts, etc), with about 80 rooms or so. We paid for the all-inclusive package with the master suite (which is nicer even than the honeymoon suite) and it was a beautiful room....the pictures don't even do it justice. It's one block from the Malecon, and a short cab ride to the romantic zone. PERFECT location! We checked in on a Sunday, were given a drink and a massage before being taken up to our room. The grounds were beautiful, the pools weren't crowded, the bar was never busy, our room was always cleaned perfectly every single day, and turn down service every night. They had a Vallarta Adventures employee in their lobby, so she was able ot help us out with our different activities we wanted to do while we were there. The concierge service was wonderful....we had so many helpful people I don't even know where to start! They all spoke english perfectly and didn't hesitate to point us in the right direction. We do wish the food selection would have been a little better, but other than that, everything was great. We can't wait to go back! I had an 80 minute massage while I was there, and although pricey, it was wonderful. Jorge at the bar made great drinks! Armando, Eduardo and Socio were awesome servers....and Veronica in room service was so sweet and even gave us extra chocolates on our pillows :) All of the front desk gals were incredible and so helpful....Lisandro was great with the cabs and helping us with different places to go while we were there. I can't say enough good things about this place...can't wait to go back...the perfect honeymoon!!!!

It has a great beach and the crashing of the waves was fantastic at night. The waves were intense. Room was clean and bright. It was a very pleasant experience. I think the only downside was the sleezy guy at the front desk who was always trying to broker deals/tips/bribes or whatever. Annoying.

For the first day, We decided to stay in the hotel and rest, because we had plans for tour next morning. The hotel has its own private beach which is right next to the pool+bar. We got the welcome drink in the pool and this was very nice. The staff are familiar about the town, and they are helpful to ask directions. Complains: 1.The floor in the room was not clean. 2. We almost got charged for bottles of drink in the room that we never opened. 3. Do not use the international phone calls from the room. The company charged us $50 for calling only 2 mins to U.S. (we are calling the back, and they are trying to deny the transaction.) Overall the stay was good. The hotel is far from the DownTown, so you have to take a local bus or taxi to get there. Buses comes often, but they don't run after 9:30pm so you have to leave DownTown before 9:30 if you don't want to pay for taxi.

DISREPAIR

  • The Vigils Verified Customer
  • 23 Jan 2012
This was my fourth stay at this hotel. I skipped twice and tried other hotels. The second time I skipped was mainly because I noticed the place was not being properly maintained. I was disappointed to find out, that 2 years later the same things that were broken two years ago had not been repaired. Their pool, is in total neglect. Given that they don't have much of a beach, they should take care of the pool a bit better. The rooms looked old and unkept. I had a standing lamp, but no plugs to connect it to. It was never attended to, same thing with the bathroom, every time we wanted to take a bath, the shower would turn instead. I called maintenance, who came in , but did not repair it. The hotel staff is very attentive and accommodating, with the exception of the people in charge of the time share. They harassed us every time we walked by the lobby. I would have appreciated that after the second time, of me saying no, they would have stopped asking. It is a shame they are not maintaining their pool.

More than I expected! I was not a fan of the all-inclusive resorts until I stayed at the Melia Puerto Vallarta. Either if you just want to sit by the pool or beach or woul like your day full of activities, this is a great place. The food is great and changes every day, so do the shows at night! If you have kids, they have this "Flinstones" theme area and Fred and Barney ar roaming the hotel all day. You can also drop your kids off and they'll be entrertained all day long

Great hotel an convenient location

  • puteshestvennik Verified Customer
  • 13 Dec 2011
The hotel is only couple of miles from the airport and right on the beach. Short walking distance away from Marine Terminal and $5 away from downtown. Their "Deluxe" rooms are best option if you want to see and hear ocean waves. But make sure you don't get 1st/2nd floor since view would be blocked by beach bar and not worth the upgrade over standard. Out of their fine dining options, Salvadore's has the best staff/atmosphere. Do ask for some "Spanish coffee" for a desert - you'll see a great show of flaming alcohol being poured in between various containers. Oh, and beware that their "Information Desk" staff will actively try to invite you to a timeshare presentation.

i loved every bit of my stay. the location is perfect! the room was basic but had everything i needed - a mini refrigerator and stove, tv, comfortable king bed, a safe and was cleaned everyday. the place is so quiet, i had the gorgeous rooftop pool all to myself most times. you get access to two other los arcos hotel pools, (one that is right on the beach) and with a tip of your choosing the staff will set up lounge chairs on the beach and an umbrella wherever you like. can't wait to return.
