This is a great place to get away. Nice resort with friendly staff, great food, good prices, and beautiful views. I was there the first week of December and couldn’t ask for better weather. Everything is with in a twenty to thirty minute ride from the resort and the airport is 40-45 min depending on traffic. The local bus is a great way to get around and was only 20 peso (about .50 cents US). It is only a short trip to Boca witch is a must see as well. Look forward to going back here.

Great views!!
A very comfortable condo with a million dollar view and excellent customer service! Every room has an ocean view with a balcony. The resort sports a beautiful swimming lagoon as well as 2 pools. There is a restaurant, snack bar, bar and room service. Each room has a kitchenette and there is a convenience/gift shop on site that will cover all basic needs. Although some of the rooms are a little outdated, the resort is working on upgrades and the rooms sre all clean and comfortable. The staff at every level of this resort is friendly, courteous and go above and beyond. This is our second time here and we will be back!

This hotel has a private beach area with calm and warm water, protected from the waves by a barrier of rocks. The rooms are clean and comfertable. The only negative about it is that it is a good distance away from downtown. Overall I would recommend this hotel if you are visiting PV.

We booked because it looked great on the pictures, very disappointed to find out it’s not as advertised. The property is run down, there was construction happening, a funky smell throughout the building, moldy curtains in our room, a few of the exercise equipment were broken, and is located so far away from everything. The property is advertised as being 6 min away from the malecón which is not true, it’s 20 minutes by car which costs more if you’re taking a taxi or Uber. I will say the ocean view was pretty good but not enough to keep us there. We stayed one night because we didn’t have anywhere else to go, and had to find another accommodation for they rest of our stay, we communicated with Expedia about this but apparently the hotel refused to take any responsibility for the state of the place and offer no refund at all. I wouldn’t recommend it at all.
