Recommendations for an all inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta (and surrounding areas)? Kids are 4 and 1.5 years old. Probably gonna hang out at the resort most of the time so good kid amenities and beach are a must!
And if anyone knows of any deals for April, send them my way!

Thanks for the recommendation but we’re looking for something through PVR. The flights are shorter than CUN and with young kids that makes or breaks a family vacation hahah...
But I hear the Dreams chain is amazing so maybe I’ll take a look at the Dreams Villamanga Nuevo Vallarta!

Ive stayed at this one and it’s gorgeous! The resort next door (marival) is a little more kid orientated, we just stayed there in Jan.

Stephani Dreams Villamagna is amazing. Great kids program and the food is amazing. We are heading there soon for our second visit. Have two kids. My daughter was six last time we were there and wanted to be in the kids club all the time.

The PV Melia! Hands down. They have a special kids programme and don’t allow any ‘spring breakers’!

Royal Decameron has good value, lots of Canadians and improved over the years, close to nice fishing village. Recommend a trip to Yelapa, 25 minutes by boat from downtown, rent apts for US$20 up a night. Really quiet, undisturbed village, no cars, just mules and horses, nice beach.

Elisa Thanks
I’m nervous about booking and don’t know anyone that’s stayed there.

I’ve heard good things about the resort itself. A couple of notes is that it’s located about 45 minutes from the airport and just outside the Bay of Banderas, so open ocean, which makes the beaches more surfer friendly. Waves, etc compared to resorts in the Bay.

Has anyone else stayed here? I’m quite liking this resort but a 45 min drive from the airport is pretty long for 2 kids. We’ve stayed at an Iberostar years ago in Cancun and it was just okay.

Stephani I ended up booking but don’t leave until March 18. There is a great FB group for the resort where you can ask questions, read reviews, get more info, etc...called Iberostar Playa Mita Visitors
