Property is overcrowded. A lot of small children screaming and playing.. which is what they should do.. but nowhere to just relax. Noisy all the time.. only one restaurant with the all inclusive package.. food was ok.. not a lot of options. Service at restaurant terrible. I always had to flag someone down for a beverage. Sometimes the servers just standing around in a huddle talking and joking, while I waited for someone to assist.. I had 2 alcoholic beverages the entire time I was at the hotel. Bar by the pool always busy and always had to wait. Alcoholic drinks were not very good. ate outside the resort most of the time. Better service. I paid all inclusive.. not worth it.. Front desk staff not friendly at all..the place is older but clean. Never had hot water and the water pressure was really low. Always a line at the front desk when I wanted to report an issue..Elevator went up to I think the 3rd floor?(2nd? Can’t remember ) Then I had to climb a couple of set of stairs to get to our room.. rooms need some work.. great view from our little balcony.. Would not stay here again..

Great family resort. Only complaint was not enough tables in shade areas & ppl would claim them & then not sit at them for hours. Plus only having 2 pool staff who were run off their feet so waiting for food & drinks too a long time. Otherwise great location & fun activities for kids.

Rooms are outdated, the smell of mold and humidity is horrible! Towels are old and stained. No body wash towels, no lotion, no body wash, the soap and shampoo are not good quality. The pool,restaurant and bar are ok. Access to the beach is great. The customer service is ok, definitely didn’t feel appreciated at check-out and will not be returning.

Excellent location in Zona Romantica! The food in the all inclusive package was delicious! Salvador cooks the best food! Staff is very friendly, attentive, and courteous. Walkable distance to the Malecon and Isla Cuela for shopping. Lots of great restaurants nearby as well! Will definitely stay here again when I come back to PV!

The area is so convenient to walk around, there’s so many amazing restaurants and food stands to try. The hotel was great too. There are plenty of pools and it’s right on the beach! Our room had a balcony with pool chairs which was great to watch the sunset and see the ocean.

The location is ideal however the all inclusive food and drink is barely worth it. The liquor selection is terrible to the point where I ended up buying my own liquor and beer. The food is just okay nothing spectacular. We were awarded a tasting menu 1 evening and this was better. I'd give the liquor a D grade and the food a B- . Pool was nice and warm. Spa was fantastic, thank you Patty! Location is walking distance to night clubs. Numerous beaches within a 15 minute uber. I would say the biggest let down was the alcohol. My partner and I found ourselves going to the seafood restaurant upstairs (los Marcos??) for a decent cocktail; this was not included in the all inclusive. I'd say if you dont care too much about a decent cocktail or high quality food then add the all inclusive however if you do your palate will not be satisfied. Great for a cheap trip and seems popular amongst natives who are looking for a quick getaway.

So this hotel looks great in the pictures but the room was just so-so. The only window looked out onto a hallway wall and it smelled strongly of mold. The food is... well... don't get the "all-inclusive" package. It's disgusting American food-- hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken nuggets and fries. I'm glad I didn't book that option when I saw what was on offer. The pool was fair. Best feature of this hotel was the location. It was inexpensive though... so if you're looking for a bargain this is a decent choice.

This hotel far exceeded my expectations. Several reviews made it sound like the hotel was run down or dirty, but this was very inaccurate compared to what I experienced. The rooms looked remodeled and were clean with higher end amenities, such as a large walk in shower. The grounds were beautiful with a large pool, a hot tub, and an infinity pool right on the beach. Only complaint was the room smelled of mildew when I first arrived but seemed to dissipate once I turned the air conditioner on. Overall a great experience and a lot of bang for your buck.
