The hotel has a beautiful setting with stunning views of Puerto Vallarta, and the staff absolutely shines with their excellent service. However, the dining options left much to be desired, and the location can be a bit challenging for those looking to explore. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, but some areas need improvement.

This resort is perfect for workout enthusiasts, with numerous hills and hiking trails, although it's not directly on the beach. The staff, especially Francisco and Julio, really made my stay more enjoyable with their exceptional service. However, the food was just okay, and the location made it challenging to catch transportation.

The hotel offers stunning views of Puerto Vallarta and the ocean, truly unmatched by others. The staff is exceptional, going above and beyond to provide excellent service. However, it is located a bit far from the main tourist attractions, and the transportation options are limited, which may not be ideal for everyone. Overall, if you're seeking a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere, this is a great choice.

I had high hopes for this hotel, given its beautiful setting, but the service was a significant letdown. The rooms were decent but noisy, and while the dining options were somewhat underwhelming, the amenities were adequate. The value for money is questionable considering the limitations we faced during our stay.

The room was decent, but it was noisy, and I had issues with the bed size. It did the job, but it wasn't ideal.

I had quite a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the rooms were stunning and spacious, and the staff at the restaurants were fantastic, always attentive and welcoming. However, the location felt a bit isolated, and several things went wrong during my stay, like the delayed service and issues with management response. I'd say it's a good spot overall, but be prepared for some inconsistencies.

The hotel is a bit up the hill and in a quiet area, making it feel somewhat isolated. You'll need a car or a taxi to get to nearby towns.

The facilities were generally good, but the property is quite hilly, so expect to use golf carts for transportation within the resort.
