Find Beach Resorts in Marietas Islands

"The Riu Vallarta is a very nice resort in a very safe area. All vehicles have to stop at a checkpoint before entering the Flamingos area of resorts. The food in the buffet and all of the restaurants is very tasty. We liked the Italian and Kulinarium restaurants the best. There is only one bar for the beach and pools area. There was almost always a line of people waiting to order their drinks there, but it only took a couple of minutes to get drinks since they always had three or four bartenders on hand. There were also two drink carts that would travel around the four pools offering a selection of drinks that were mixed to your liking. Unfortunately, you could only get beer by waiting in line at the pool bar. There was very limited drink service on the beach, you were better off getting up to get your own drinks. The room was very nice, very clean and comfortable. The air conditioning worked perfectly. We had a nice balcony with a beautiful view."

"Cleaning staff, waiters and barman excellent. Food was very good."

"The resort and staff are topnotch Food had lots of choices all fantastic Great stay!!!"

"Hotel was awesome. Good selection of food snd restaurant. Great for family with younger children. The shows were very fun to watch . Staff was always helpful and very polite. We will be back soon :)."

"Hotel que no cuenta con elevadores, me pareció que les hacía falta mucho personal, tanto para los restaurantes, como para los bares, la comida del bufete no estaba mal, pero tampoco estaba deliciosa, esperaba más opciones en los guisados, los restaurantes de las especialidades son buenos. Las piscinas estaban sucias, con espuma amarilla, noté esto, los 5 días que estuvimos hospedados. Por otro lado, en este hotel todos los días hay eventos, en un día nos tocó 2 bodas y sin personal...pues dejó mucho que desear en el servicio"

"We have a beach front view and the service was great. Room service was fast and all staff was attentive and respectful. Best Hard Rock I’ve ever stayed in."

"I like everything I’m ready to go back"

"Food was not the greatest- not all the restaurants were open every night- entertainment was minimal- overall was not clean."

"Great resort we keep coming back year after year! Staff is excellent beach is beautiful, rooms are fantastic."
