Hotel Playa Conchas Chinas features a rooftop terrace and puts you within a 15-minute drive of Malecon and Uno. Guests can take a dip in the outdoor pool or grab a bite to eat at El Set, which is one of 2 restaurants and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Rooms feature conveniences like kitchenettes, along with balconies and room service.
Pros: Location and view are unbeatable in PV, in my opinion. The view from the room is incredible. One of the few places with actual rocks/white water if front of you; it's out of the all-inclusive nothing-but-gringos areas; it's across the street from a bus stop 5-minutes from the places you want to be in town; and it has a good, reasonable restaurant on the beach.
The bath is reasonable sized, there's plenty of hot water and unlimited bottled water. Wi-fi works many but not all places in the hotel. Many rooms (including ours) have a hot tub on the balcony with an ocean view.
The staff is great -- friendly and helpful. And, the price is right-if you can put up with the "cons."
Cons: This is our third time there over the last 16 years. Unfortunately, it has gone downhill in the last few years. The beds are incredibly hard (unreasonably so, and we have been in some hard beds) and the room was not clean. Sheets were too small for the bed and the kitchenette was not well enough equipped for anything but cold cereal for breakfast. This was probably our last trip to this hotel. But, the view is incredible.
Pros: Friendly and helpful staff and good location
Cons: Rooms are a little dated and they were doing major renovations . Pool and beach area was just average.
What an unexpected surprise!
Pros: Playas Conchas Chinas is a hidden gem. Extremely well maintained, clean, everything works, comfy beds, and an amazing staff! Yes there are stairs but it's like a stroll for through the garden. Great restaurants nearby and awesome snorkel spot right there. I could not have been more pleased with this find! They have easily earned my business for next year!
Cons: I can't think of one bad thing to say about this hotel!
