Hotel Riu Jalisco - All Inclusive
We had a fantastic time! Kids loved the pools and beach. Rooms were clean, service was friendly and great spaces to play and relax. Tile around the pool can be slippery so be aware when walking with drinks 🙂 Overall a great relaxing trip!!

Hotel Riu Vallarta - All Inclusive
The room was clean and was done promptly every time. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Our friends did have a roach in their room, so that was unfortunate. The Italian restaurant was amazing but the steak house and buffet were mediocre.

Crown Paradise Golden Puerto Vallarta All Inclusive
Have been here many times. The oceanfront room is beautiful, but even the higher floor ( floor 6) didn’t help the noise with the 3 beach weddings and a party that lasted until 1-2 am.
