The service is excellent. The food options its bad for the money that you pay here. I couldnt really enjoy the food cuz it was no good tease. I had to go out to eat food cuz it was that bad. Breakfast was the only good thing about it. Only two restaurants and no music at all. And they need to do better activitites. This place is not for young ppl who want to have fun and dance. Most of the ppl is with families or retired seniors. This is like a 7 star resort

We absolutely loved this place! Stayed for 5 days in late February. The property is beautiful and the pool and walking path area is perfectly manicured. I know you hear reviews that say how friendly staff are, but it is true here. Everyone and I mean everyone was open and helpful. It really felt like they went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Have to give a shout to Ricardo at the La Ribera restaurant on the beach. He adopted us gringos and made sure we had a good table and had everything we wanted. They even cooked one of the fish I caught that morning for our dinner. I could go on and on about how much we loved this place but there is only so much room here. Bottom line is to just go there. I guarantee you will enjoy it! It's the closest thing to paradise we've encountered.

The staff was excellent and always willing to fulfill all our needs, the grounds are luscious and well kept but the food for vegetarians was absolutely bland. There was nothing for those who like flavorful Chinese/Indian/Thai etc. kind of food. They need a chef who is also trained for the Eastern couisines. They tried but couldn’t satisfy our request!

Vellas Vallarta was truly excellent. The staff at Velas Vallarta was top rate. Friendly. Well spoken in English but encouraging in Spanish. eager to make the stay pleasent and comfortable. The grounds are beautiful and VERY relaxing. it felt nearly empty. Our room was comfortable. Beds were okay, not great, but not bad. Pillows were not hypoallergenic. Overall the rooms are due for a makeover. The food was all good, on occasion great, and never bad. Not a lot of vegetarian options. Vegetarians: be sure to ask, many dishes cooked with lard etc.. Their mixed drinks are a mixed review. If you call the liquor, they are fine but the well liquor options are terrible. The margaritas were all good. There was a little shop onsite for souvenirs, over priced. The hotel is about 40 minute by taxi to downtown. shopping: Mercado municipal or market stalls on island in the rio cuale. for pottery: “señor Talavera” at hildago and encino en la espuina. Same prices as elsewhere but much nicer stuff. We didn’t try the spa or use any other services or excursions. Skip the “welcome package” it’s a time share promo. At the airport, keep your head down until you can see the outside. Don’t talk to anyone after customs and baggage, they just want to sign you up for timeshare demos. All in, great trip, I would definitely return to Velas Vallarta!! The staff and atmosphere more than make up for the minor setbacks and aging rooms.

The staff and how they treat you is amazing. Must've encountered 50 staff members and not one was rude....they all tried so so very hard to make one's stay memorable. So many activities everyday, it was lively by the pool and in the evening. Mexican night was very unique and great food. All other nightly shows/ activities were engaging. Christian is the lynch pin, funny dude and is a jack of all trades. Max runs the pool activities and is awesome. Enrique at the beachfront restaurant was so kind to our son who was trying to converse in spanish, may others were also very encouraging. Food options were great, something for everyone. the buffet was fresh and with lots of variety. The pools are populated by age almost via an unspoken understanding. Seniors on one side, babies/ toddler in another pool and all other ages in another.....the property is on the beach so you can just walk to the ocean/ bay area but waters were choppy the week we were there. We didnt venture outside much but the ATV tour we did was useless....so after that experience we stayed back at the resort. Lots of people who had timeshares and had been coming for years....good to see

Beautiful, well-maintained property. Pools were always clean, grounds immaculate. It was nice to be able to choose between buffet and ordering from menu. We loved La Ribera for meals right on the beach. Food was always good and I especially enjoyed the stir-fry option at lunch, and the short-rib tacos. Also the huge shrimp cocktails!

Hard-working, friendly staff especially in restaurants. Food varied from fair to excellent, best in "gourmet" Andrea restaurant. Pools were nice. Despite notices to the contrary, people persisted in reserving chairs early in the morning. Although threatened with their belongings being removed and stored, it was not enforced. Pickleball courts (and probably tennis) needed cleaning: dangerously slippery. Our room was nice but noisy almost every morning with staff unloading supplies and working below.

It's your classic all inclusive. It was not great with a toddler. Hard to just get a drink. It was lacking fresh food like fruits and vegetables it had some but not enough. Only two restaurant options. The staff didn't speak great English. You need towel cards so you have to keep track of them. There was no fresh squeezed juices. We just had a hard time feed our daughter. Two nights drunk people knocked on our door. There were loud fireworks we couldn't see but we could hear. It has more of a party vibe then we had wanted.

Good access to the beach. Water pressure in suite was good. The grounds are exceptionally taken care of. Place was very dirty, long black hairs on the couch found, trash behind the tv, after the cups and plates were “washed” there were still lipstick marks. Forks had caked on food. Food was horrific, purely bland. It was so bad I ordered food from Rappi and cooked my own in the suite. I guess if you are too drunk to notice you will be fine. Bland food that was sitting out for long periods of time. Ordered water from room service and after 2 hours had to call again since they weren’t bringing it apparently. Weren’t shown to our room so had to roam around until we found it ourselves. Few staff that were friendly and hours before getting drinks. Would not ever come back. I prefer a more authentic Mexican experience and nothing about this place was that. Sitting at the beach you will constantly be heckled. Bought a dusty shot glass and 3 simple brackets to bring back for my kids and they charged me $75 USD. This place is a complete rip off. Idk who is leaving rave reviews for this place. Staff acted like we should be sad to go “back to the real world” we were excited to get out of this place and back to our home! I even got my RT card while here and one staff was bothered as “I’m not MX” Yikes. The suite was severely outdated and definitely not clean. Like I said the beach is great if you can get away from all the vendors harassing you or you are too drunk to notice anything here

THIS IS GREAT RESORT. STAFF IS VERY COURTEOUS AND HELPFUL. FOOD OPTIOND ARE VERY GOOD. BEAUTIFUL GROUNDS. ONE THING I DIDN'T LIKE IS THAT US EARLY MORNING PEOPLE HAD NO LIGHTING ON THE PATHS OR WALKWAYS TO THE ROOMS. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS RESORT.
