Although not the hotels fault we were almost two days let. Stuck in mid travel. The hotel did nothing for us though and once we arrived offered nothing. Then after traveling for days it took an hour and a half to get our bags after I called and asked for the third time where our luggage was. My family had checked in earlier and received a drink and a staff member took them to their room and showed them around. We received none of this. We had to find it on our own and then wait for the bags. No wine left in our room either which we were supposed to have. Most staff and the concierge area (especially the ladies) were rude. All other staff though were great. Room cleanliness was ok. A couple times we almost fell coming into our room though because the floors were so wet. Not safe! Overall the food was just ok. Drinks just ok. Was hoping for a great margarita. But no. Overall though because of the property and beach access and convenience once there it was an ok place to be.

We paid for a relax vacation but the check in was a disaster. The room was not ready as advertised. Even we paid for inclusive package the Verto Vallarta resort clerk did not give us the voucher while waiting for our room. The resort has limited night entertainment roof top bar not too lively :-( on this trip. Recommended to check other options...

Nice and lovely but so boring. Swimming pools closed at 6pm and nothing else to do besides hang out at the pools. Roof top has no entertainment and the Bars closed early . I dont think i will be coming back. The check in service was the worst, The two people who helped us did not know what they were doing. They took our credit card for deposit and instead of giving us the bracelet and room to finish the whole process, they told us to wait until they finished with 6 others couples before they got to us. We asked them why they took so long because our check in time is 4pm and We got there at almost 5pm hungry and tired. Atleast give us our bracelet so we could go eat and wait for them to finish. After 15 minutes of asking back and forth, they finally gave everyone their bracelets and room number 😡.

We were booked for panoramic view room- we were on 1st floor and the view was blocked by trees- TV was all in Spanish- should have English subtitles. Trolly Drivers were very good and prompt- Restaurants were also good. We asked for room upgrade as we are VIP expedia and were told nothing available- this was during a weekday. Also has issues w/room key reader and wrist bands. Very disappointed.

There are so many issues with this hotel. This is supposed to be a 5 star hotel. The food is not great, cold food served at breakfast, drinks were watered down, the only good drinks were at Karuma, which we had to pay for on top of the all inclusive plan. The WiFi doesn’t work around most of the property. If you’re looking to relax, it’s impossible we didn’t sleep all week due to crazy loud neighbors. Staff refused to handle the situation. Was woken up at 5 am while on vacation, there are zero child free areas so if you’re looking for a break of kids this is not the place. They are loud and everywhere. We got stuck in the elevator and the emergency phone didn’t work so we were trapped with no one to help us. Just overall, this place is far too expensive for what they provide. This is not a 5 star resort. Very disappointing and when we told the team about our issues they did not give AF. Once they have your money, they no longer care. At check out the guy argued with me on when the noise started from our neighbors. Unreal. I would never return to this resort. It’s not worth the cost.
