Top Playa Esmerelda Hotel Reviews

Amazing Oceanfront Puerto Vallarta Studio condo from 70 a night.

8/10 Good

"We had a wonderful stay at this property, which boasts direct access to two of Puerto Vallarta's most beautiful, clean beaches just steps from the room. The stunning ocean views lasted all day, and the suite itself was highly functional, equipped with everything needed for cooking and cleaning. Having an on-site mini-market was incredibly convenient and helped us save on dining out.The location is excellent—centrally located near the area's best beaches and less than ten minutes from the Malecón, with a convenient bus stop right outside the Girasol building. While the downstairs restaurant and bar were convenient, the food was just average (3/5 stars).There were a few drawbacks to note: we encountered unexpected extra fees at both check-in and checkout (cleaning fee) despite we always clean up after our stays. Additionally, the ambient noise from the adjacent hotel's turbines unfortunately masked the natural sound of the ocean waves. While the room's cleanliness could be improved—specifically regarding dust and debris left under the bed—the bedding itself was exceptionally comfortable, offering some of the best sleep I've ever had.Overall, the owners have put great effort into creating an enjoyable stay, and we appreciated our time here."

Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta - All-inclusive

8/10 Good

"This was my third stay at this property which I return to because of the beach access and the incredible staff. Although the facilities are dated the location with a private beach is ideal for a get away vacation. I particularly love the club level rooms in the “newer” of the two buildings. To sit on your balcony while viewing the sunset is beautiful. You can also sleep to the sound of crashing waves. The staff is outstanding (Lisbeth, Alejandro, Nicholas and Oscar) they go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. I highly recommend the property especially the beach access."

Beachfront Penthouse with Los Arcos Views, Private Terrace & Beach Access

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing!! I would score it higher if I could. The pictures and description do not do this place justice. We had everything we needed for this trip; from beach towels, towels, fully stocked kitchen. The kitchen had everything you would possibly need. We didn’t cook, but I went through everything and they were very thorough supplying the kitchen, even had glass food storage. Pool on sight and cleaned every morning. Beach is a walk up- amazing Playa Esmeralda. Take your snorkel gear. We didn’t take ours, but bought one for my son and there were plenty of fish on the rocks without having to stray far from the beach. If a had questions, they responded very quickly- Regina was amazing!!! The home was truly amazing. We were right in the middle of the two areas we wanted to visit. There aren’t a vast selection of restaurants around, but we did go to Girasol for breakfast- not bad having breakfast Oceanside. But we were 15 minutes from Zona Romántica in PV and also from Boca de Tomatlán. We would definitely come back!!! Thank you for the amazing accommodation. Our family loved it."

Garza Blanca Preserve Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is fantastic as usual, but please bring back your great Mexican seafood you had back in the days… (to many hot dogs and dry burgers) And it’s definitely not the fault of personal. You just changing your concept. Shrimp tacos, ceviche and aqua chile became I little less exciting than before"

Hotel Mousai Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk, The bellman helped me with my luggage, the suttle driver, the trolley drivers were amazing, they gives us great welcome, and excellent service.
