"This was our first time to this area of Nuevo Nayarit and I picked this hotel for our first 2 nights before we went elsewhere. It ended up being so amazing we went back for the last 3 nights of our trip. The staff are really friendly, it's relaxing and the pools are amazing. Great restaurant as well, we had several meals there and enjoyed them so much. Special shout out to Angel for being extra awesome and making us feel welcome."

8/10 Good

We stayed in several different hotels during our trip and this was the last one before we flew home (chose it as close to the airport) was set in very beautiful scenic grounds with lots of flowers & ponds/waterways & had fish and a peacock. We love to see animals around hotel. Hotel easily accessible with buggy & had lifts. Had a nice view from bedroom over sea but disappointingly the windows were screwed shut . Room nice but shower was fixed to the wall & no bath. The pools were fine but...

Comfort Inn Puerto Vallarta Golfside & Marina

10/10 Excellent

I really enjoyed my stay here at the comfort inn. The staff were super friendly & helpful. Everything was very clean. The beds were super comfy. Since it’s very hot in Puerto Vallarta I loved the they offered water bottles as well as a pitcher & cups. On every floor there was an ice machine as well as several filtered water dispenser to refill the pitcher. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The food tasted great & had lots of variety. It was a great experience. Thank you to all the staff!!!

Room was very clean, nice bed and sheets with a large window and a lovely view. Bathroom and air conditioning also good. Only thing lacking was a power point for charging your tech. One in the bathroom that was working attached to the hairdryer. Staff were very nice and helpful. Very good breakfast, substantial variety and good coffee. Nice swimming pool and lots of outside space for a reasonable price.
