Looking for recommendations for all inclusive places in Puerto Vallarta....would prefer close to beach. Thanks

Have you tried trip advisor?

Kate ha! Smart ass.

I stayed at Friendly Vallarta several years ago and loved it!

Try Royal Decameron in Bucerias. Half hour north of PV. Has the best beach around. Great property and access to village of Buecerias, shops and great restaurants

Riu Vallarta right on a beautiful beach no rocks very nice resort

The Buenaventura Grand Hotel & Spa ... close to Malecon and on the swimmable beach. Smaller place but friendly staff

Now amber or hyatt Ziva. Hyatt Ziva is a secluded beach.

Chelsea we stayed At the Hyatt Ziva location when it was a dreams. Awesome location and beautiful beach! Not sure what the Hotel is like now though. Looks really nice.

Chelsea me as well... I attended a wedding here and it was amazing. However there is something to be said for being in walking distance to the Malecon

I liked the Krystal

Reflect Krystal in Nuevo Vallarta. Great Swimming, easy walk into Buccerius.

Cheryl I am sending you a PM as I have a couple questions if you don’t mind!!

Stayed at the Riu jalisco in Nuevo it was right on the beach

My parents have been to royal de Cameron multiple times and love it. They always have a blast.

Definitely don’t recommend royal de Cameron, mould in our room, no fridge, and got multiple complaints for laughing to loudly in our room.

Jeanie agree !!

But Jalisco is a beautiful town we loved touring the area

Depends on what you’re looking for and budget. If you like quieter and impeccable service, and have the $$, I’d recommend the Grand Velas. Riu Vallarta is undergoing a renovation and should re open end of November....looks like all the pools are going to be brand new. Dreams is a nice resort, also on the smaller side and not a party place. All of them on great beaches. Marival Residences is another one with outstanding service, and now has a beach access with a newer, private beach section. It’s quiet and more upscale, but you also get access to the other Marival sister resort which is walking distance away, and all the entertainment there.

We did our first all inclusive at royal de Cameroon. Next trip upgraded to Riu Vallarta (a step up from riu jalisco) then up graded next trip to the riu palace. Absolutely love the location away from the busyness of the city and love long quiet beach walks up to niceties. Our last trip there were baby turtles hatching at the palace. Also stayed at the iberostar in punto mita. We do love the palace.

Hyatt ziva- has it's own private beach and great food!!

We liked it here as well
