Un hotel muy bonito y ideal para pasar un fin de semana. todas las atenciones fueron geniales desde nuestra llegada hasta el dia que nos retiramos. los desayunos muy completos y bien, las areas limpias comodas y seguras. pero la habitación fue genial, como para pasar alli mas tiempo. un descanso muy acogedor. la unica recomendación es que deberian tener un servicio de comida mas tarte. llegamos despues de un viaje largo a las 11:00 PM pensando en cenar, pero no habia nada disponible.

The property was very tranquil relaxing, and attractive. Great pools, beautiful room. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The beach was nice, but the bay there was too shallow and murky to swim. The room they attempted to give me was adjacent to a very noisy construction zone, where they were building new units. After some awkward discussion, they placed us in another larger room , but at an additional 1/3 higher rate.

There was good and bad. This hotel is located on very calm water and we like to swim in the waves. Too far to drive for Puerto Vallarta activities. 30 min. drive to surfer beach at Sayulita which was super fun! Vallarta Gardens had very nice people and food but was too quiet and boring for us. They would not let us out of our 6 night booking. (We are 60 years old.)

Vallarta Gardens is a beautiful spot, the gardens are lush.. the room was gorgeous.. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pools were clean with comfy cabanas available.. but this is not the place to come if you are looking for that typical Mexican party vibe.. bar closes at 8:00 pm, restaurant at 9:00, And only one of a few bars were open.. It’s very quiet and relaxing. That’s our vibe so we loved it!!

I liked that it’s quiet and great place to relax. The staff is attentive and friendly. Besides the dirty socks we found left under the living room table everything was very clean. The food, (lunch and breakfast) were awful and inedible; expensive, bad taste. I would not recommend the restaurant food they serve there

I’ve been visiting the coastal towns of Nayarit for a while now and I’ve stayed at lots of rentals - this one is the best. The owner truly understands luxury and everyone on staff is attentive and efficient. The rooms are top notch, featuring awesome A/C and fantastic duvets to go with, and there are small carpets on each side of the bed to welcome your feet. Lovely hot shower & fluffy towels too! The resort is nestled beautifully into an oceanside hill and the lush landscaping is perfect. I look so forward to returning!!
