Top Playa Palmares Hotel Reviews

Barceló Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"beautiful location, gorgeous views, stunning turquoise ocean water, white sand beach cove, swimming and snorkelling and lush forest surroundings. my only feedback is that the rooms need some upgrades and the cleanliness was slightly lacking. No food service at the pool wasn’t ideal but it gave you breaks from the sun."

Hotel Mousai Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"This was our second time back to Mousai and it was just as beautiful and relaxing as the first. The service is second to none, Diego and Daniel were so attentive and you can't beat the views from the rooftop pools."

Playa Los Arcos Hotel Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"In our first room they put us in the air conditioning wasn’t working well and was putting out a horrible smell. They were very helpful and accommodating . The next day when they couldn’t fix the problem they changed us to a different room. Every one of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They greet everyone with a smile. The housekeeper kept the room very clean. The beach access and pool were wonderful-very convenient. I will be coming back again."

Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta - All-inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the resort, polite service. My only complaint is that they do have to get a handle on the chair saving at the pools. We gave up as I wasn’t willing to wake up at 5am and set down stuff. Plus I find it rude."

Quinta Maria Cortez Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved every single thing and detail about this place. It’s so peaceful and in a such a great spot. The food was delicious and that lemon tequila was amazing. The staff was the best I honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you for such a great experience, I will definitely be staying here again and I really recommend for everyone to atleast stay here once in your lifetime"

Hotel Tropicana - Near Olas Altas Street

10/10 Excellent

"Staff and location"

Costa Sur All Inclusive Classico Collection by Sonesta

10/10 Excellent

"We love this hotel and have stayed here three times. We deeply regret their decision to become an all inclusive this Spring. Puerto Vallarta is a great place to go out to eat and enjoy the town, we are not interested in staying in the hotel all the time or paying for food we wont eat. I hope they reconsider this decision, we would return if they did."

Lindo Mar Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place, we will be back."
