It was a beautiful place that needs some TLC. Maybe we just missed busy season but only a few guests there so it was a little spooky for my daughter not seeing anyone in this huge place. The very few staff members we saw were really nice but spoke little English so couldn't ask them much. That's ok since I was visiting their country and know basic Spanish. From a distance the pools look really nice but tiles falling off and not the cleanest, hot tubs half full with debris in them or closed completely. Looks like they started building 2 more buildings awhile ago but never finished. Don't think spa was even operating. Maybe they were in transition and I just got there at the wrong time. Thankfully only there two days so spent most of it out doing things. Location is nice on the beach and right in between Sayulita and Punta de Mita. Taxis get ther quickly. Our room had a jacuzzi tub and spa shower with many jets, a nice big deck overlooking ocean, walk in closet, spacious, and was clean so had some pluses. Wouldn't recommend for family unless traveling with others, kids will get bored Place has potential so do your research before booking. The pictures and description are deceiving.

i never write reviews but had to on this one!

Comforter to bed was filthy with stains. Called to have it removed and replaced. Never got new one until several hours later had to ask for one. Most of the Staff didn't not speak any English. We had a total of 3 large bath towels for 3 people. No wash cloths, had towels which would be standard at any other hotel. Buildings are not completed so you stare at a 1/2 or 1/3 of unfidhed construction. That looks like it has just stalled. I could go on but I will stop here. It was very unfortunate but luckily we were only staying one night! Was hoping to really like it so we could go back with friends in future. Oh well!

Lindo hotel junto al campo de golf. La alberca hermosa en una playa limpia. Maravillosas puestas de sol. Recomendaría: 1. Un restaurante para cenar frente al mar ya que, con el que cuentan, está dentro del lobby. 2. Que tuvieran más colchones para las tumbonas. Los que tienen son insuficientes y no nos tocaron. 3. Sistema de calefacción para la alberca privada en la terraza de la habitación. Imposible meterse.

Beautiful, peaceful, but maybe not worth $400

The hotel overall is beautiful and well kept. The food is delicious and the servers are all very friendly, however room service food came cold both times we ordered. If you don't speak Spanish that well you will have a bit of hard time getting what you need. We never received maid service (we were there for a full weekend) and they were doing construction on the hotel, so we were woken up every morning around 7am with loud voices and construction noises right by our room. The doors and walls are not very sound proof, you can hear people in the hallway very clearly from inside the room.

Absolutely beautiful hotel. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. It's right on the beach and the pools are stunning. The only issues I have is with hotels.com. They stated the hotel has free local shuttle which it does not. Also, this hotel is not in puerto Vallarta. It's 45-60 minutes away. Very secluded hotel. But you do feel like you have the whole beach and hotel to yourself. Very calm, quiet, and relaxing. Overall, great but if you want to be in the center of town you need a hotel in puerto Vallarta.

GREAT RELAXING OCEAN FRONT LOCATION

Loved the oceanfront restaurant and staff, great food and beautiful sunset. Had three wonderful relaxing days taking advantage of quiet facility. Would have like to have a better dinning experience, food was not very good, ocean front grill was 10 times better, maybe day chef is not same as night chef. There are excellent restaurants close by. Over all we loved our stay and would recommend it. FYI, if you plan to get out of hotel to explore more than a couple of times, I would recommend renting a car since taxi fairs are a bit expensive.

Very relaxing and peaceful

The property is huge, but only a subset of rooms is used, so the number of people in the property is very small. You can have a huge infinity pool for yourself. Service is good, and the food (breakfast, beach) is also good. The beach in front is very long ( couple of km), more for walking than swimming because is open ocean with a strong surf. All the great Punta Mita restaurants are only minutes away. The rooms are big, and well appointed, with beautiful views of the Pacific.

The Tranquilizer

Place is enormous yet void of humans even during what is described as a "high season" week. We stayed Dec 22-24. Staff seemed more eager to sell us a time share than serve hot coffee in the morning (we asked twice to no avail). We received permission to check out a night early, yet had to spend an hour on the phone with Expedia catching the hotel staff in a lie, and still awaiting the refund of our final night as promised by the reservation staff. I’d be happy with just a refund of 1/3 of our stay (Friday night did carry a premium and I totally understand and accept this). Negative comments aside, the hotel property is BEAUTIFUL and very well maintained. If you are looking for a VERY quite resort, this is a perfect place for you. The tranquility will tranquilize you. An important disclosure is the property has very few actual hotel rooms. The rest are condos (likely many unsold and unoccupied), hence the sparsely populated resort—which is GREAT if that is what you are looking for. Rooms are very nice but we found the lack of any available and/or optional shower privacy a bit odd. Don't think about doing any work in the room, the "desk" is way too high and there were basically no electrical outlets in the room anywhere. Finally, does anyone actually get in one of those silly little cold water pools on a hotel room balcony? A nice table and/or set of lounge chairs would be much more useful.

Nice hotel right on the beach

I enjoyed my 4-day stay at the La Tranquila. I would recommend this beach/resort over the crowded and overpriced beach town of Sayulita (which has lost much of its secret charm over the last 5 years)... There are numerous large pools that are great for swimming laps, and the beach is relatively quiet with great waves. The beach is very soft sand and fairly short (not much distance from hotel to water) so not great for jogging. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The food is delicious but probably a bit overpriced. Biggest issue, please be aware, is that hotel is relatively remote aside from the adjacent golf course and another hotel. So getting there would probably require a rental car. Also, I was only one of 4 guests in the entire hotel so it is extremely quiet and away from town/restaurants/nightlife if that's what you're looking for. On 2 occasions I came down to lobby and nobody (including staff) was around and it took me 10-15 minutes to find anybody staying or working in the hotel. The golf course nearby is nice, well-groomed, and $75 for green fees.

Bueno pero le falta

El hotel realmente es muy tranquilo, creo que tiene potencial pero aún se encuentra en proceso de construcción por lo que le falta muchas cosas que uno espera tener en un hotel de este precio, las albercas estas impresionantemente grandes pero por lo mismo estan algo sucias, en algunas ni siquiera hay forma de entrar ni salir (es decir no hay escaleras), el piso en partes esta mohoso, a excepcion de la principal las demas no tienen ni un camastro ni una sola silla donde poner las cosas, absolutamente nada de nada, y claro nadie te va a atender a las albercas que no sean las principales, no tienen absolutamente ninguna actividad que hacer ni para adultos ni para niños, literalmente es para ir a no hacer nada de nada lo cual es aburrido, y lo que mas me decepciono es que no le invirtieron ni un penique a la playa, los accesos al mar estan muy mal planeados, no hay ni un solo camastro en la playa, hay un desague, bueno podria seguir y seguri, lo bueno sin duda es la comida muy rica (obviamente algo cara), y la habitación mucho mejor comparandola con un hotel estandard, la de nosotros incluso tenia una pequeña piscina, pero igual el agua estaba sucia, ya estancada de varios días y no se nos antojo meternos. Tiene mucho que mejorar entiendo que esta en proceso y si cuidan los detalles puede ser una buena opcion a futuro, recomiendo que adecuen una alberca especial para niños para que ellos se puedan divertir de lo contrario no volvería por que seria super aburrido para ellos.
