“Fantastic Location, So Friendly”

We really enjoyed our time at the Buenaventura. We didn't do All Inclusive as we prefer to experience new restaurants. However next time we'd probably book Buenaventura due to the great location and do All Inclusive since it wasn't very costly, and drinks were more expensive in PV than we'd expected. Hotel Staff was so friendly, helpful, and accommodating and distance to the Malecon was a short walk. Great experience!

“Nice facilities and close to town”

The staff was very friendly and the food was good. Our room was comfortable with a firm bed. The hotel is only about a half mile from town so there is really no need for a taxi which is nice. We did not do all inclusive because you are so close to many resaraunts in town. However, the buffet at the hotel is very good.

The staff was extremely helpful and made my family feel at home. The location is also positive because it is close to most pharmacies, stores, restaurants and night life located in the heart of Puerto Vallarta. I definately recommend this hotel to everynone!!!!

“Another outstanding stay”

We have been staying at the Buenaventura for years and consistently find the service and accomodations to be wonderful. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for seeing the real Puerto Vallarta.

“Most relaxing vacation ever!”

The staff were AMAZING. So friendly, so attentive. Loved that there was a separate section for 18+; we're single women in our 20s and liked being able to be separate from children and families when we wanted to. The pools were beautiful. Guests were friendly and many told us they had been coming to Buenaventura for years. Loved being right on the beach. Only minor suggestion would be that while the rooms were very clean and nice and well maintained, the mattresses weren't very comfortable and we didn't sleep well most nights. We would definitely consider coming back and I have already recommended your resort/spa to other friends!
