I took my three kids (6, 8 and 10 years old) and it was amazing. The food was great, staff was wonderful. We all felt very safe. The beach was clean. We ride horses. Jet skied, did the pirate ship excision and went to old town PV and it was all easy to organize right from the resort / beach. There was a crocodile that swam up on us the first night which was terrifying, but we didn’t see anything like that again.

My adult daughter and I stayed in a studio that was perfect for our needs. We were in the main building facing the mountains, and i enjoyed a sunrise coffee on my balcony every morning. We did not do all inclusive because we like to experience the fantastic food in PV, and had lots of outings planned. There is a grocery store nearby, where we stocked up. And the small market onsite for the convenience. The pool was the highlight of the hotel for us. The beach was also enjoyable. For those who smoke, the little smoking section out front was always clean and sociable. We found the location convenient, and a reasonable cab to anything you might want (or a cheap and easy bus for the adventurous). While we spent most of our time offsite, we enjoyed the hotel while we were there. Note, be prepared to wait if you want a crepe. My daughter said it was really good, but it took a very long time. I would stay here again, but i am not a fan of the planned renovations which seem to be stalled as of Dec/24.

We had an amazing stay! Our room was clean and the bed super comfortable. The location was perfect and the pool and beach area were an amazing place to unwind and relax. We were able to easily walk to the local grocery store and Isla Mall for our shopping needs, and hotel staff had taxis readily available to take us down to the Malecon anytime. The only down side is the aggressive ‘orientation’ when you first arrive. We were exhausted after a long travel day and just wanted to settle into our room, but were given a sales pitch to try and get us to get up early and take a bus to another location for a membership sales pitch. When we opted out the person giving us the ‘orientation’ was very rude which was a bad start for our stay. We will definitely stay again but will check in ourselves to avoid being ‘helped’ by the sales staff haha!

This property is in a good central location. We have stayed many times since 2007. Some things NEVER change! People ALWAYS come out in the mornings and put towels on the loungers in numerous locations and the pool concierge does absolutely NOTHING about it despite the signs telling people to not reserve chairs. I know it’s uncomfortable for staff to enforce this but it is SUPER annoying and disrespectful to all the guests walking around & around and trying to find somewhere to sit and relax. Now to the housekeeping. The floors in the rooms are not just dirty but filthy. How can they expect to clean the floors with dirty water and just push it around? It’s also super annoying that they remove face cloths and towels and don’t bother to replace them with new. I’m not sure that I would stay here again. 😖😖
