Puerto Vallarta hotels near Museo del Cuale

Pros: The beach was nice. The Italian Restaurant was adults only. We ate there all 3 nights of our stay. The staff was great and the resort very clean, as we have mostly found to be true in Mexico.

Pros: Great service, outstanding food, beautiful resort. Many other guests were raving too. Best beachfront hotel for the money we've ever stayed in. Will definitely be back.

Pros: Location to beach

Pros: The staff at Almar were wonderful. The rooms were comfortable, very clean and we had a great view of the beach. Having access to the Mantamar Beach Club was nice as we spent a lot of time at the pool. The hotel is welcoming to all but we really appreciated that Almar especially caters to LGBT couples.

Pros: The staff and facilities and quality of food and service was wonderful! Everyone was very friendly and helpful.

Pros: The views, rooms, and rooftop bar with jacuzzis are a plus. I enjoyed the modern room design and the check in process was seamless. Pool and beach are across from property and easily accessible via hotel! Location is less than 5 mins drive to shops and restaurants in the romantic zone (old town).

Pros: Great location near town easy to get to great restaurants and entertainment. Everything accessible at the property too! Staff great and accommodations comfortable with nice pools. Beach is not good but they are renovating it.

Pros: The pool side service we received from Manuel was the only good thing about our stay. He was very attentive, friendly, & fast with our drinks + food.

Pros: Staff is very friendly, pool areas are fantastic, lots of activities available, location is great (walkable to Malecon and downtown PV areas).

Pros: The location of the hotel is excellent. It's close enough to walk to most things and is right on the beach. The pool area was wonderful too. We never struggled to find lounge chairs by the pool. Staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were simple but clean which was fine for our stay.

Pros: Location

Pros: I loved that the hotel is on the beach and centrally located to everything! All was within walking distance. The front desk staff were amazing.

Pros: Excellent location! Loved being above the beach and watching the sunset from my balcony. Appreciated having a refrigerator in the room and a brand new air conditioner (cooled room quickly). The room was fairly clean (no pest) and the house keeper was lovely. Centerally located, no need for car/taxi.

Pros: The location was the best, right in the heart of La Zona Romantica. The ocean front view was spectacular especially on New Year's Eve when the whole sky was lit up with fireworks. The maid assigned to our room was attentive, thorough and didn't mind when we asked for additional things - we highly recommend her.

Pros: Large room with balcony that was another room with table and 4 chairs,stove,fridge,sink and pots,plates etc.....Right on the beach,with the 3 best beach restaraunts:Si Senor;La Palapa;and El Dorado..Irma,my hotel maid kept the room spotless and left clever little towel sculptures everyday....And at $60 a night,can’t beat it

Pros: The view from the balcony was stunning and you have easy access to a very popular and busy beach, you are also right in front of the Los Muertos Pier. The staff is very friendly and provide you with anything you need. There is an Oxxo right outside of the hotel for quick runs of snacks, water, beer. A/C in the hotel is extremely helpful!

Pros: The location is really good. The rooms are clean (our maid was a delight; she worked hard and the cleanliness of the room showed it). The hotel staff is dynamite. The hotel is older and showing some signs to wear-and-tear, this is to be expected along the ocean. I would definitely stay at the Tropicana again!

Pros: For the most part, the staff was wonderful, and especially helpful and friendly were the guys supplying the pool and beach chairs and umbrellas. Also a special mention for Marcella. She does an excellent job of keeping the beach and pool areas in order, while also having a smile and being sociable. I don't want to forget our maid. She took great care of our room.

Pros: Locationnon Los Muertos Beach

Pros: Location, service, and clean.

Pros: Perfect location, free parking (they take the car to a secure lot) , good towels. Our room was very musty smelling. . Big confortable bed. Lots of beach lounge chairs but some broken

Pros: Location was great.

Pros: Great location. Central to all the old town area. Some nice views. Right on the beach. A very decent hotel for PV.

Pros: Word "meh" would help me define the value.

Pros: Beach next to the hotel. Large room. You don't need an all inclusive there is plenty of good options to eat and bats near the hotel. swiming pool was empty all the time because the beach is within the hotel. Vallarta Tours recommended, offered at the front desk.

Pros: Great location!

Pros: Hotel Encino is a charming old world beauty at a great price! Great location near markets, shops, restaurants and beach/boardwalk.

Pros: Nothing.

Pros: Room 116 which is way in back in north east section. My 3rd and probably last stay there. Reservation said room with balcony and river view. When i got there they said no river view rooms available and they said the same thing the next few days. Bed was hard and not level, kind of a humpback. Toilet would only flush once every 15 minutes as is takes that long for the tank to refill. Window blinds were thin so not very dark in the room at night. They updated the TV to a nice flat screen with many channels though only about 6 in english. The TV remote did not work consistently. Maid service was good. Location pretty good for the price, a block or so from ocean, few blocks from usable beach. If you are over 49 you probably would not put up with all of the little problems with this place. If you get a river view room you can overlook most of them, otherwise i would pass. Air conditioning worked OK though loud which helped drown out the street noise. The shower had very hot water to my surprise though the toilet is located basically in the shower which is odd. Ceilings are nice and high. Free wifi, in the lobby only, which is nice. The lights in the room are not very bright making it hard to shave or put on makeup. Saw a gecko in my room once.

Pros: Front desk staff was friendly and hotel is easy access to boardwalk.

Pros: Price

Pros: Roof top pool often empty ( while I was there ) Roof top restaurant awesome food and cheap Maid were friendly Gilberto - one of the front desk employee Who is very friendly and alway smiling and goes beyond to help you if you need anything.
