Hotels in Marina Vallarta, Puerto Vallarta from CA $55

"Nice hotel clean and staff was very accommodating "

"We splurged on a suite and we’re so glad we did. Fantastic views. We love this resort. It was our third stay here. "

"1. Location: very close to the airport. The ride to/ from airport takes 5-10 minutes. Jet engine is not an issue. As far as proximity to old town: taxi ride to cathedral takes 20-30 min (depending on traffic), app. 130 pesos. 2. Beach: very broad beach, unlike farther south in the heart of Puerto Vallarta, where you'll find tons of umbrellas and people underneath them, and a very narrow beach. Strong tide regularly washes up rocks on the beach, so it's patchy in terms of entry into the water. However, rocky patches are small, and quickly give way to a sea bottom of smoothest sand. Beach is punctuated by periodic jetties of rocks - lots of crabs, oyster shells, barnacles. 3. Hotel layout: 3 main buildings in the shape of a "U", hugging the hotel's 3 pools and a beautifully landscaped garden area. If you get a room with a balcony, bldg #3 is great for viewing sunsets over the water. Hotel grounds include a convenience store, boutique shops and souvenir stands, tennis courts, spa, meeting center. 4. Rooms: Pleasantly, you can't hear nearby rooms on the same floor, but you can hear some noise from the floor above/ below. We stayed in a 2-room suite w/ view onto area/ partial ocean; spacious balcony. 5. Pools: 2 large pools connected by a canal w/ a little slide perfect for small kids; one pool has swim-up bar; other has a waterfall feature. Plenty of space and lounge chairs and areas all around."

"Beautiful property. Dogs allowed ❤️"

"We enjoyed all aspects of it - staff food pool 👍 we were only there for one night The check was horrible. 3 couples ahead of us and it was 50 minutes before we got our turn to check in "

"Casa Velas was really great - the pool was very nice, and even though it's not on the beach you have access to the Tau Beach Club and beach access through the sister resort (easy drive of a few minutes in the free Casa Velas shuttle that was available whenever we needed). Tau Beach Club is excellent - beautiful beach access, plus a really nice pool, and great service. The food was great - we really enjoyed the on-site restaurant Emiliano's, the Tau Beach Club restaurant, and we had dinner once at the french restaurant at Grand Velas resort which was awesome. Highly recommend at least one dinner at sunset at the Tau Beach Club for really beautiful sunset views. The Aquabar (swim up bar & restaurant on-site) had good drinks, and OK food, but not as good food as the other options. In-suite service delivered what looks like Aquabar food and was a little cold and not amazing (typical room service). Service generally was great, everyone was very friendly and helpful, and all staff wore masks. Everything was very clean and well-kept. We went for a room with a private patio and private plunge pool. The room was very nice and the private patio was worth the additional cost to us. The plunge pool would probably be nice for some folks, but was too cold for us so we didn't end up using it. Overall, our stay was great and we would definitely stay here again! We liked that it was quiet and relaxing, not a big party atmosphere like some of the other all-inclusives seem like."
