Had a wonderful time at Friendly Fun Vallarta with family and friends. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Every day they always had a smile. The food and drinks were great.
The property was welcoming and the location close to the beach was ideal. Pool was nice as well. The room was basic, definitely dated but got the job done. The biggest letdown I think was the food. Dinner was very hit or miss and the options were just repeated over and over again so that got tiresome. Staff was very friendly
Overall, the resort it’s in good location with good service and good entertainment, separate pools for adults and children. Food is ok and more Mexican dishes than American.
They gave us wrong room for 3 nights which was disappointing, when we complained they moved us to room we paid for it.
Everything was great family friendly great location and clean i highly recommended for families

The staff at this hotel are execptional. I travelled with my 4 month old baby and they made sure that were able to provide us everything we need to make our trip comfortable and memorable
Service from the staff is so friendly and fun. We will keep coming back here. Great pool, food is excellent with a variety of choices, bar service staff are top notch. Comfortable rooms, clean and well maintained. A wonderful experience!
The room was attended to daily with very friendly staff. It would be great if they had beer and soft drinks available in the fridge. We had a great stay!
The staff were great! Our original room was very noisy and they found a new quieter room that we were very happy with! The food was tasty and the staff were so fun! Loved the live music especially the cello player! Appreciated the 70-90s music that I can dance to!
Friendly staff as the name implies! Lots of activities. Volleyball twice a day, paddles boards and kayaks available for use. Very clean and comfortable!
