Hotel Riu Palace Pacifico - Adults Only - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, great staff"

Hotel Riu Vallarta - All Inclusive

6/10 Okay

"There were two things we found lacking during our week long stay. First, the food. More often than not the buffet stations were empty and the employees at the stations seemed to avoid you. The options were bland and for the live of toast….. get better toasters! Second was the evening entertainment and general activities."

Melia Puerto Vallarta - All inclusive

6/10 Okay

"Overall, I would rate this resort about a 5/10 and unfortunately I would not return. The staff was definitely the highlight of the stay — everyone was extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful from the moment we arrived. Customer service was honestly 10/10. The food, however, was disappointing. I’d rate it around 4/10. The selection was very limited and overall the quality just wasn’t great. Not a lot of options. We expected more variety. Cleanliness was average, probably around 6/10. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, but the pool area could have been maintained better. One of the biggest disappointments was that the kids’ pool/play area was closed during our stay, which was something we were really looking forward to for our children. Also, while I cannot confirm it with certainty, we do believe we may have been bitten by bedbugs during our stay, which was very concerning. We mentioned it to staff & they were helpful, they even offered to wash our clothes. Overall, while the staff was wonderful, the food, pool maintenance, and other issues made this a disappointing experience for us."

Hilton Vallarta Riviera All-Inclusive Resort, Puerto Vallarta

10/10 Excellent

"We wanted to use the massage services, but the prices were actually much higher than some of the best spas in the U.S., which is why we decided not to use them. We did use the cabana service, but we did not like that they were all covered with bird droppings and were not cleaned even once during the entire week."
