This was the second time we stayed at this property. We enjoyed it and had positive experience. minor issues is price of drinks at pool and beach and service was sometimes slow on the beach. We received massages from the hotel and they were GREAT!. Only issue that I don't think you can control is the beach merchandise sales.

The staff and the facilities at the Almar Resort are terrific. I was treated very well and after very little time I was recognized by most of the staff. This is a resort that caters to a specific and special crowd and everyone I encountered tried his/her/their best to make my stay very enjoyable. If you stay at this resort be prepared to for a celebratory and noisy crowd and a noisy neighborhood since many of the surrounding resorts also cater to the LGBTQ crowd. Also, prepare to be offered a sales presentation that offers special services for those who decide to join, and be prepared to pay, in advance, for dining and drink charges that you might incur during your stay. These charges are not unusual, but being forewarned is being prepared.

Property really nice, had a great room with a nice sea view, infinity pool really nice with fantastic sunsets. Pool staff really good. Reception welcome not so good, so many rules to go through then after that your passed onto the concierge welcome who try to schedule you to buy timeshare. Not great after travelling a day and half. Reception team on checkout quite rude. But overall hotel nice, food good.

I loved the staff. Very helpful and went out of their way to help. What I DID NOT like was them immediately trying to sell us a time share. We were not there 10 minutes. She went as far as asking me what i did for a living, which to me is none of her business. All we wanted to do was to check in and start having a good time. The entire time we were there on the third floor, it smelled like mold in the hallways. Our floor got extremely wet after using the hot tub so we only used it the one time. and we were there 5 days. However the front desk did send someone to mop and they told us not to turn up the air conditioning over 22 c. Which was really cold, I do want to be very clear how very helpful ALL the staff was and honestly the most pleasant and helpful than any where i have ever stayed.

My stay at Almar Resort in Puerto Vallarta was incredible. The resort offers stunning ocean views, luxurious rooms, and top-notch amenities. The Mantamar Beach Club was a highlight, with its infinity pool and excellent service. Dining was a delight, with delicious food and attentive staff. Its prime location near the Zona Romántica made it easy to explore local shops and nightlife. Overall, Almar Resort provided a perfect blend of relaxation, luxury, and adventure, making it one of the best vacations I’ve ever had. Highly recommended!

Overall we had a great stay. Comfortable bed, good A/C, good service at bars and pools. Some construction noise during the day, but we weren’t there that often. The beachfront would be awesome, but you spend the entire time telling vendors you don’t want to buy anything. That’s not an issue for Alma’s though. That’s just PV. The pools were fun and nice to have the pool party vibe at Mantamar and the more relaxed atmosphere at Eden. All onsite staff were very friendly. Great experience.

BEAUTIFUL resort. It has everything you could ask for, definitely caters more towards gay men and has an option for whichever is your way to enjoy.. There’s Mantamar Beach Club, which is a great pool party atmosphere with beach access and wait staff to bring you a good selection of food and drinks. The roof top bar was great for breakfast and every night they had drag shows and other entertainment that wasn’t bad. Eden is more chill and super relaxing, and that 50m infinity pool is really something. Very nice aesthetic in Eden The only thing I didn’t like, if I’m being honest, is the timeshare pitch. They sort of code the language and call it a “membership” and are really pushy and assumptive the way they get you to agree to the whole thing. Beware.. a free breakfast or massage is really not worth hours out of your day, unless you really want to pay them in the tens of thousands of dollars to essentially have same vacation for the next ten years, don’t do it. And “no commitment” quickly changes to them interrogating you, fishing for information. They also make it sound like they’re almost entirely members only, but i asked around, and I could not find a single person that was a “member”. Not a single person. The vibe sort of changed after the timeshare experience, because you really get the sense that is what it’s all about. The concierge and all the different employees they pass you off to are all under pressure to get you to buy this timeshare it’s obvious.
