"Most beautiful lobby"

This is a fantastic resort, we had great food in the buffet and ala'carte restaurants. The lobby is the most beautifully decorated, roomy and air conditioned room we have ever seen. (10th trip to Mexico). The staff went out of there way to make sure any thing you asked for was delivered.

Loved everything

We loved everything. The hotel was only 25-40% full so we got everything we wanted. The best drinks are in the hotel lobby bar/Piano bar. [...]. All the food was delicious. Everything was very clean and comfortable. I didn't think the bed was too hard. We slept great. Yes it's not in puerto vallarta but that what we expected as it's in Nuevo Vallarta. I don't mind the taxi ride and I like being on a better beach. The beaches in the city and marina area are not nice. There was always something to eat and we tried a lot of different foods. Things we didn't think we'd like we ended up enjoying. We can't wait to go back.
