My partner and I traveled to Puerto Vallarta specifically to stay at the Xinalani Hotel Retreat—the photos looked stunning. We booked the king suite for its private pool and outdoor shower, aiming for a peaceful, private birthday celebration. We expected some bugs, as the website warns about them, so a dragonfly in our suite wasn’t a big deal. But from check-in, we noticed a foul sewage-like smell in the room. When we brought it up, the afternoon manager dismissed our concern, blaming the ocean or possibly a dead animal—off-putting, to say the least. The odor wasn't constant, but with the open-air design, it returned often. Later, we found the smell came from the path beneath our suite. Other issues included collapsing furniture—one piece even hit me—and a mouse in the suite on checkout day. For a place marketed as a luxury retreat, these issues were unacceptable. What frustrated us most was the management’s tendency to explain away problems instead of resolving them. Despite amazing waitstaff and a great daytime manager on 4/18, the overall experience was disappointing. My rule is: would I go back? Sadly, no. Too many problems, not enough accountability. It’s a hard pass. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2ea5bbac-b096-492c-ba26-d544438da50f-1745437194990.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9fa9b78c-7690-4950-8889-7b0f486ef957-1745437197093.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/560dde2f-ffa0-496f-a3a1-b81af0badc9b-1745437196718.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Don Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hilda 10 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Una experiencia increíble.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Xinalani. The rooms and public spaces were beautiful. The food was outstanding. The service was kind and attentive. I have been visiting Puerto Vallarta for years but this was the best trip. Being on a secluded private beach and watching all the wildlife was fantastic. The daily yoga class is not to be missed. Nearby is a fun walk to a waterfall, a small town to wander, and a longer hike to other beaches. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/855258B846A98D5C0F7146E4EE245876AAC849EA1707163511911.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joe Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Bernardo 23 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Completely over priced and mediocre food ##### Bernardo Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leena 16 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had been searching for a healthly quiet beach vacation and this place did not disappoint!

Huge place but well managed, clean and efficient. Breakfast was crowded and mediocre food but overall a great stay. ##### Michael Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Celena 1 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I've visited many unique resorts all over the world but this property is my all time favorite.... It's the ultimate playground... A perfect combination of jungle, private beach, rocks, and unique accommodations. The food is healthy and delicious, yoga instructors are high quality, the staff is attentive and the amenities are first class. Get your stairmaster game on ahead of time because you'll be climbing lots of stairs but it's so worthwhile. ##### Celena Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 16 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities this place is truly magical! the food was delicious (and my husband is super picky) the rooms and very clean, the bed is super comfy, the pillows are fluffy, the bathroom products are amazing! and help keep the bugs away.

I really enjoyed my stay at xinalani. The staff is amazing and the food was the best. I loved my room and the comfort of the place. This place is truly a unique experience. It's a real rustic getaway. Don't expect this place to be just like any other all inclusive resort - it is much different in its own unique way which I loved. The property isn't too big so you're not walking or taking golf carts everywhere which is great. It is a different place so if you're looking for a resort feel and great nightlife, this isn't the place for you (The bar closes at 11pm). But if you're looking for a place of amazing people, culture, peace and fun, then yes, this place is truly an amazing experience! Loved it! ##### Krissy Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Niklas 8 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Niklas Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosalind 14 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Rosalind Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Satoru 9 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Satoru Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### María isabel 13 Apr 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### María isabel Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ocean Coral & Turquesa All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Ocean-Coral-Turquesa-All-Inclusive.h1823032.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Aventuras Riviera Maya -
