This is not a super luxurious resort but is very good. Mostly seems to be a domestic clientele so the food is much more like “home cooking” than other resorts. We liked that. Staff were all really good. Nice village feel in the complex.

We liked the clean room and view and the staff were friendly.
Room appeared not swept nor washed, room appeared tired and neglected, check-in staff was in no hurry. The spot is beautiful and near the marina and airport, but not a lot of authentic restaurants near.
This place was amazing! So close to the beach and had an amazing view if you chose the sea view room, the staff are all so kind and greet you every time they even walk by you! Will definitely be staying here again.
I stayed here Sunday&Monday night once I landed and had a great experience. The breakfast was awesome tons of options, Thanked the Chef before checkout on Monday. Then booked my last night for Friday night because it’s close to the airport and Juan was awesome plus Barbra helped me Saturday afternoon before my flight back to Canada at 6:30pm. Very family friendly resort, location is great, staff helpful, friendly and fun. I’m so glad they spoke English making it easy to communicate and hardly had to use my translator! Definitely recommend for anyone, there’s lots of options for things to do close by. Very happy with my stay here because it’s my first time in Puerto Vallarta.
Staff was lovely, clean room, easy check-in.
Only limited parking on pavement/bricks. The rest is gravel. Terrible on luggage wheels.
Massive entry and drive they could easily have a luggage drop off as you have to check-in and get a parking pass #.
I’m 80 and had to drag my luggage through the parking lot. Not so fun.
Very pleasant surprise. We checked in at night at the special Expedia desk. Had great service and were even given an ocean front room. We booked 1 night but were so happy to find this hotel for a decent rate that we extended for 2 more nights. Nothing fancy no frills and didn’t get the food package but were happy with the service, accommodation, beach access with pool and location in PV. Thank you

The food was gross, no champagne for breakfast. Our tv didn’t have a remote, our phone didn’t have a ring tone. This was probably the worst resort we’ve ever stayed at. On the plus side, the beach was wonderful, we made great friends, and we saw whales everyday
Amenities in the room were more than expected. Bathroom is very nice and spacious. Ocean view was as expected. Nice to have a balcony to enjoy the sunset.

The ocean front room offered whale watching , perfect sunset viewing and watching the waves crash into the shore. The pools could use some repair because many tiles are missing, filter covers on the pool floor are missing and could cause someone to get hurt, and the tiles were so dirty that when we leaned against them my bathing suit top was blackened from the filth. Housekeeping wasn’t consistent and there were days where we didn’t get any housekeeping at all. The location of the hotel is in a great location because it is safe, clean and close to grocery stores, malls, restaurants, the marina, the airport and only a cheap uber to downtown. We did all inclusive for only 3 days out of the 10 days we stayed and did not enjoy the food. Breakfast was the same as lunch and dinner. We ate out at local restaurants instead.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean, the staff was great. The bigger pool was closed and too many children in the pool area. So if you’re traveling as a couple I wouldn’t recommend, they were in the gym and running down the halls. (Not the hotels fault). Super noisy with construction, people so not as peaceful as would have wanted.
Rooms are clean and comfortable, but the pool is small and crowded. The beach is rocky and has a few chairs.
If you book through Expedia you will get a different bracelet and the Staff may try to charge you for breakfast eve though it was included with your reservation. This was very annoying.

The staff at this location was amazing! Very nice, helpful, and overall provided a good experience at this resort. I will say that the property itself is a bit dated, room was bit dusty, bathroom sink was clogged, and the AC was not keeping the room cool despite keeping curtains closed. One of the two elevators in one of the towers was inoperable for two days, leaving a constant long line of guests trying to get to and from rooms or leaving guests to walk up/down 16 floors.
The beach was great. The property is literally steps away from the water and is very walkable to and from different hotel properties. There were more than enough beach chairs and covers to be able to layout. The only downside were the many vendors soliciting items/activities but they were all really kind when you declined anything.
The food was just ok. There was a grilling event on Wednesday that I really enjoyed as it showcased really amazing flavors of the local food. Outside of that, I could have skipped most of the food offered on the property. Speaking of property, the location is really good. Close to restaurants and shopping. Everything is within walking distance and every easy to navigate.
Overall, this place is a good place if you are on a tight budget and want to have a relaxing vacation. Again, every staff member were amazing, very helpful and welcoming, just hoping they can renovate the property and up the food game.
Unfortunately our experience at Krystal Vallarta was not a good one. We had previously stayed at this hotel in 2019 and had a great experience (booked 4 rooms), so decided to book again. Our family booked a total of 7 rooms this time around and right from the beginning, we started experiencing issues. We got locked out of 4 rooms, keys wouldn’t work, shower and sink in one room overflowed, air conditioner in one room wasn’t working, safe wouldn’t open in another room and we couldn’t access money. Hotel sold part of their property which included a huge part of their biggest pool and we weren’t made aware that construction would be going on everyday, starting early in the morning 8am. When we went to hang out at the pool, we were greeted with a family of 35 that took over entire pool area and was full on having a volleyball match with no consideration for any of us other guests. Balls were flying left and right, hitting and splashing others and the family never once apologized. There was no hotel staff at pools keeping order, so everyone was pretty much doing whatever they wanted. This same family of 35, was gathering in rooms (multiple floors), having parties very late into the night/early morning, making lots of noise. Definitely not the experience we were hoping to have and must say, won’t be staying here ever again .
The air conditioning didn’t work and the room over head fan made loud noise when turned on. Talked to the front desk about it but no change. Breakfast was very expensive. Staff was good/polite.
