There were many little birds that flew around the outdoor dining area and pool area, that would eagerly descend on people’s food or property when they got a chance. The birds would leave behind a mess and traces that they had been there. Often leaving you with a soiled seat or beach towel. Also, why are there not more bathrooms available to guests. None of the restaurants offer their own bathrooms. Guests enjoying the restaurant’s and theatre have to rely on 10 stalls to accommodate both men and women.

The property is dated… you get what you pay for. Don’t bother with paying extra for ocean view upgraded room as we did… they didn’t honour it when we got there. Manager tried to get us to pay $110.00 US per person for a room higher up with view. When told and showed we already did they said nothing we can do. Our view was of the second floor ceiling. Pools are ridiculously hot… temperature was that of a hottub. Beach is nice except it was closed for 2 days as there were two crocodiles (obvious safety reasons). It is approx 20 min drive to Bucerias. Nothing to do around area but resort. Italian restaurant was good…. Buffet was mediocre but they tried. Bar staff were all very good. Entertainment staff tried although we didn’t do any activities. Wouldn’t stay here again

The Hotel is in a very exclusive area called Flamingos with other luxury hotels and high-end condos. This area is quiet without public transit access (bus). I noticed only taxis and uber accessing the place. It is about 35 minutes from Puerto Vallarta. The hotel lobby is amazing. It has a private beach, several pools, bars and restaurants and offers entertainment both for kids and adults. All the staff was friendly all the time. The bars offer a good variety of drinks and cocktails. There are different restaurants. • Don Rafael is a buffet type which offers breakfast, lunch and dinner. It has a large selection of items to choose from with very good quality. • Pepe’s Food is located close to the beach and pools offering only burgers, hot dogs, nachos and fries. • Il Gusto, offering Italian food dinner. I tried two times. It was very good. • Nirvana, with oriental food. It was closed two times during the week I was there. Even though it said that it was closed for maintenance, I did not see any work done in the place. The trays with Beef Tataki and Tuna Sashimi got emptied very quickly and they were not replenished during the time I was dining, so I was not able to try them. The sushi, crab and other items were bad. I was very disappointed as my expectations were very high. • Kulinarium. This restaurant was closed all the week because of “maintenance”. However, no work was done during the whole week. I am under the impression that it was just the excuse not to open it.

The staff really do try their best to please the customers. The food is bad, except for the Italian and Asian restaurants. It is a headache to have dinner at most of their restaurants because you have to make reservation with plenty of time in advance.
