Overall Krystal Vallarta is a great vacation place. The food is typical resort food, everyone can find something to eat. The service was very good. Jaime and Victor at concierge were extremely helpful, Ramone made excellent drinks. Manuel, and Carlos stood out as great servers, and Alberto, the manager at the palapa went out of his way to be helpful. There were plenty of bathroom and bar areas to service everyone and the pools were beautiful overlooking the beach. Like most resorts they could definitely put in way more lounge chairs by the pool at the palapa. The location is also very convenient; a short ride from the airport, a bus stop right by the resort and a shopping center for money exchange and conveniences right beside it.
My only disappointment was that on our last day we had to forfeit our inclusive wrist bands by noon but we didn’t fly until 5:30 so we were just cut off for the day. It was inconsistent with what had happened with another couple two days prior who were able to retain their wrist bands for the day with no charge.
