Puerto Vallarta Hotels with Balcony

Looking to travel with family? Highly recommended! This is a luxury hotel with a ”boutique” vibe and Excellent service. The breakfast buffet is one of the best in PV (have stayed in Sheraton, Westin). The pool is well-maintained, the kids playroom is awesome (Thank you Bibiana!). The property is very modern, very well maintained, though rooms are a bit small. We stayed at the Marriott in Cancun as well, similar experience. Best budget luxury resort in PV.

The room was clean, check in clerk was friendly and the breakfast was not bad at all. Those are the positives. For the not-so-positive: I didn't get the room that I reserved despite booking directly from my IHG account but it was late for my arrival and with it being just one night, I didn't bother to see if my room type was there. There were no face cloths in the bathroom so that was a bit of a surprise. When I showered the next morning the water only got to a lukewarm temperature and that took about five minutes. My biggest concern, hence the title, was on check-out. The check out agent told me that the gentleman from the night before only charged me 180 pesos to my credit card where it should have been 1800. Thankfully, I keep every receipt and told her, ”you are incorrect and I just happen to have the receipt of what was billed to my credit card; let me show you”. Not only was I billed correctly, but it was 1863 pesos. It bothered me that a) if I didn't have this receipt, I would have had to pay again and then dispute the charge later with the credit card company and b) that there was such incompetence that one staff member was calling into question the working ability of the other. The gentlemen that checked me in billed me properly so I am not sure how their internal communication and record keeping got so screwed up. Needless to say, that left a bad taste in my mouth and made this hotel appear to be unprofessional and subject perhaps to scamming people which is not a good impression for a guest to leave with. Further, when the check-out agent was shown the evidence, she didn't even apologize but rather abruptly stated that she wanted to make a copy. I obliged but not after taking a pic in case somehow it was dropped and not returned. Regardless, though close to the airport, I would not stay here again but instead another in the area which I have done before.

The room is average, the average level of a business hotel, but there is no coffee machine, two small bottles of free water every day, the room service is not very good, the room is almost not soundproofed, I am in a very inner room, and it is like sleeping on the highway at night. Restaurant staff Almost no one understands English, there is no service, and the dishes can only be called food. As long as there are two hotels open in this city, I will not come back.

This is an affordable all-inclusive place to stay with a nice beach for swimming and sitting on the sand. There isn't much shade but you can rent a beach umbrella and chairs. The lobby and buffet are open air so it can get really hot during the warmer months. The food was safe, but unremarkable. There was a good variety of choices everyday and each night at the buffet had a theme, such as Mexican, Seafood night and BBQ to name three. We were there at the beginning of October and the weather was still quite hot and the Air Conditioning in the inside restaurants was not quite strong enough to cool the place down, but the servers were excellent. I was worried before arriving that the hotel would be noisy at night, but they have a night club for the resort across the street for all of the late night partiers making the hotel a quiet place to rest and sleep. However, one of the elevators must have been over something very stinky because most of the time, there was a smell of sewer for a lot of our rides. It was the elevator that was for the rooms on the beach front side of the hotel that went up to the 7th floor. The other elevator in that section only went up to the 6th floor. The rooms were nice and clean and the bed was comfortable. We were on a top floor with roof exposure so our room was never able to cool down below 77 degrees despite the hotel's efforts to fix the AC so I had difficulty sleeping. I understand the lower rooms were nice and cool for sleeping. The maid did a great job keeping our room clean! This is a great place to stay for those who like a busy active beach area. It is centrally located which makes it easy to go into town or access tours. The hotel staff was great. If you want a more relaxing, quieter beach and pool, you will probably need to go elsewhere.

In November, my younger, taller wife and I spent a week at the Holiday Inn and Suites Marina and Golf resort. My younger/ taller wife is 30 days younger and 2 inches taller than my 1st wife ( passed ). My 1st wife and I visited the Holiday Inn in Puerto Vallarta 27 years ago. The property has been sold and the Marina and Golf Resort is the new standard bearer for the Holiday Inn in Puerto Vallarta. I enjoyed my 1st stay at the Holiday Inn in 1996. Over the last few months, I told my younger/taller wife that I was really looking forward to staying at the new property. My expectations were greatly exceeded. The new property is in a fantastic location close to the Marina districk of shops. Check in was fast and seamless. The lobby has an open concept and is well furnished. Peace and comfort welcome you even in the busy times. The staff were kind and professional. Rodiego who works at the front desk was a pleasure to speak to on every occassion during our stay. Neftali and Betulio who work in the dining room are the best waiters that I have ever had the pleasure to meet. My wife and I both developed friendships with these gentlemen. We are looking forward to retuning just so we can spend more time with these fine people. Come on 2024 trip. The food at the hotel was very reasonably priced and the chiefs are superb. We enjoyed a complamentry buffet breakfast every morning and a delicous supper every evening. It was great we never even thought about eating anywhere else. The pool and gym are located on the 2nd floor. The outdoor pool is a welcome relief during the hot part of the day. The pool deck is very large and can be used for multi functions. Alberto the pool bar server was another friendly and thoughful employee of the hotel. I enjoyed all of my contacts with him. Laundry facilities are also on the 2nd floor and easy to ccess. Little did I know that my expectations would be blown out of the water. Who knew that I would meet people who worked at the previous Holiday Inn during my trip in 1996. Thanks to Betulio and Alberto it was really cool to learn that we met back in 1996. What Odds? I highly recommend that you visit this property if you are in the beautiful city of Puerto Vallart.

Tropicana is a family oriented Mexican hotel right on the beach. It's nestled into the *** area of Puerto Vallarta at the edge of the historic downtown area. The rooms were large but Spartan. We had a great balcony with a view of the ocean. The public areas like the pool, restaurant, gardens, and lobby were gorgeous. The hotel is a great deal too. Nothing seemed overpriced...and there were lots of great restaurants around. I would definitely stay here again!

We had the best time and the best stay. The bed was so comfortable and we had a hot tub on our balcony! The food and drinks were fantastic and the beach was so relaxing. Miguel at the bar was great and Lucy helped us with everything we needed. I highly recommend!

The hotel itself is so great! But I think I need a car to go to the hotel. The hotel does operate a car. There is also an airport pick-up service. The height is so great to see the landscape and the facilities are great. It's not cheap, but you can get the service you paid for. The exterior of the hotel also contributes to making you want to go. The rooms are spacious and wonderful. It has a large room that can accommodate 5 or 6 people and it seems to be a very good hotel for families to come and hospice.

The staff made our trip such a memorable and incredible one. While the room we stayed in wasn’t what we’re used to, as it seemed quite run down, we only slept in it and spent our day at the pool and beach. Our housekeeper was incredible and always filled the room with extra water bottles. Manuel, Saul, Miguel, Javier, Victor Hugo (waiter), Oscar, Guadalupe, and Edgar were especially amazing, making our days here brighter. Everyone was truly incredible and they all made my first Mexico trip special. The wifi could have been better, as it was constantly disconnecting throughout the day. The food was decent as well considering the chefs produce a ton for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Overall a beautiful trip!
