Vallarta Gardens Beach Front Hotel & Residences

The staff was friendly and helpful. It is an intentionally quieter place. Good beach situation. Clean and comfortable.

We paid for a ground floor room with a private pool and received a 2nd floor room with less outdoor space and a hot tub only.

We were pleasantly surprised by this property. We were coming from one of the swanky resorts in Punta Mita, and actually found our suite at Vallarta Gardens to be much more updated and comfortable. The unit was meticulously cleaned, and the finishes were fresh and modern. We were in a 1BR suite and loved the large size with high ceilings, plenty of windows and huge wraparound balcony. The grounds were also beautiful and well maintained, and everyone we encountered was helpful and professional. The beach was a bit disappointing (sandy but no waves and not the best view), and while there were 3 pools, they are pretty small (and one was closed). It looks like they have some nice plans in place to add to the pool areas. All in all we were happy with our short stay here and would book this property again.

Nice condos for families or groups but limited food and drink options. Rooms are far from beach and offfe no views

Aesthetically great place with very nice landscaping. but very disappointed that none of the many pools had warm water or at a temperature which you could enjoy it . so, unable to go into the pool comfortably. even the rooms with private pool , there is no way to control water temperature , so water is cold . I would not recommend this place until they have an efficient method to adjust the pool's water temperature.

Overall we were very happy with our stay. We were met in our room apron arrival to do check in and get information. Room was very large and nicely finished. Kitchen needs a couple more items such as, couple of pots and couple of large bowls. One of our pati doors was broken and would not lock. We asked twice to have it fixed with no luck. I found that to be an imprortant safety issue. The staff were attentive and friendly around the pool, at security gate, daily housekeeping, and someone was always available to give you a ride on the gold cart. The location is good for getting to either La Cruz or Bucerias via taxi, bus, shared van ride.
