Flamingo Vallarta Hotel & Marina is true to its name: The 96-room property sits on the edge of the marina. Whether guests are relaxing in the freshwater pool or sitting on their balcony, the picturesque setting is one to revel in. La Palapa, the on-site restaurant and bar, features outdoor tables and international and Mexican cuisine, while spa services, a mini-fitness center and babysitting services make for welcome extras.

Rooms
Flamingo Vallarta Hotel & Marina rooms have artistic leanings, with bold floral designs and bright colors driving the theme. Oversized headboards bear intricate carvings, and linens and curtains burst with geometric or garden prints in colors such as blue, orange, red and beige. Guests choose from rooms with one king bed or two queen beds. The hotel makes the most of the marina location. All 96 rooms have either a terrace or balcony for enjoying views. Satellite TV, direct-dial telephones and bathrooms with showers are standard amenities. Ceiling fans and air-conditioning keep guests cool.

The intimate Flamingo Vallarta Hotel & Marina lures guests to its freshwater swimming pool, an oasis with prime views of the marina and plenty of loungers for sunbathing. Powerboat and fishing-boat rentals can also be arranged to enjoy the locals' favorite pastime, fishing. Free transportation to the beach and babysitting services are available upon request. A mini-fitness center allows patrons to ensure they don't miss a workout. When the mood strikes for getting pampered, massages melt the stress away.

We have written before of this excellent value hotel in Puerto Vallarta. Right on the Marina, a good menu at the Hotel, a pool and staff that cannot be beat. If you have never stayed at the Flamingo, please try it. OK, it is not 5-star (but surely 3.5), and the matresses are Mexico-good-for-your-back-stiff, but everything is well kept, the rooms are cleaned to anyone's expectation (look for the folded animal towels), and we have loved this place for the value and convenience for the last six years. We will be be back

If you have saved a ton by staying at Flamingo, spend some at the very upscale Liverpool a short walk south on the main road.

Some things are better then others

The hotel was clean but paint peeling everywhere. The staff was courteous but every item from a small refrigerator to a lock for the safe had an additional cost. The pool area was nice and staff very accomodating. I did have one issue where we kept receiving hang up phone calls to our room and that was disconcerting.

Good basic room in good marina location

We enjoyed the location on the marina. The hotel was very basic with only a restaurant but no coffee available until 7:30 am so we had to walk to a store to get coffee.

Yes, certainly it was great! I

Yes, certainly it was great! I had compared prices, location & service before traveling. The hotel price was the best in town, calm & tranquility was much felt. The Marina location is distant from downtown, we rode the city bus @ .65 VS a taxi @6.00. The city buses are much cheaper than getting a taxi. The service was excellent by all staff members, Food is delicious! we enjoyed our stay!

Nothing fancy, just a basic hotel

Nothing fancy, just a basic hotel room with few amenities. A great place to stay before or after vacation waiting to fly in or out. Great restaurants nearby along the Marina.
