“No alcohol can be sold during election day”
We were there over the Federal elections. By law, no alcohol can be sold the day of and the day before the elections. (A Saturday and a Sunday in our case.) No one warned us about this. Not Expedia, not Dreams. All of a sudden, the bars were closing. Dreams did find ways to accomodate its guests, apparently unlike other all inclusives. But it would have been helpful to know in advance. The room was beautiful, and even on the second floor (12th according to the elevator and room number) we had a drop dead view in the new tower.
“We really enjoyed Dreams Puerto Vallarta”
A very affordable vacation! We were there for Thanksgiving and they had an incredible dinner by the pool with a pilgrim theme. There was something going on every night. Most nights, we enjoyed a quiet dinner in one of the restaurants, but even the buffets were great. The vendors selling stuff on the beach within the resport were abundant but not too annoying. They were respectful when we declined. I came to relax and lay on the beach, not shop, but I know they're just trying to earn a living. We did contract with one gentleman with a boat who took us snorkling out to Los Archos and that was great. Take advantage of room service for no additional charge, though the menu is limited.
“Nice place for kids and couples”
Very cool and safe for the kids. The beach is beautiful and clean. The food was good.
“Great stay, very impressed”
We loved the Dreams resort! The service all around was great: the reception, bartenders, waiters. They work hard to provide the service anywhere you are. The food was surpsingly good, even in the buffet. We really enjoyed the Seaside Grill for dinner. Having a private beach was fantastic because it wasn't too crowded. Cabs were easily available whenever you needed them. The hotel provided good nightly enertainment. The only annoying thing was the time-share salespeople and some of the sellers walking around on the beach offering their stuff over and over again.
“We are already booking another trip!”
It was the best resort experience we ever had! The staff was always happy and glad to accomodate us with any need or request. The food was incredible and the even it's presentation was outstanding. The hotel took great pride in providing a beautiful environment and excellent customer service!
“Dreams PVR”
I would definetly recommend the Dreams resort. We stayed in a jaccuzi suite and it was amazing. Having our own private balcony with a jaccuzi was a real bonus. The veiw of the beach and ocean was great. The room was very nice and clean. For an all inclusive the food was very good. There are alot of choices each night. Although I think one restaurant is closed each night there are enough different places to eat that it really does not matter. It definetly is not gourmet or anything but you should'nt have any problems finding something good to eat. Drinks are way better than most all inclusives, top shelf. I thik by far the best thing about this hotel was the private beach. They keep it spotless and we never had any trouble finding a chair. The staff was very friendly and helpful and would help you any way they could.
“Nice”
Very Impressed would recommend it to anyone.
“Awesome Hotel in Puerto Vallarta, Planning next trip”
I've been to Puerto Vallarta 5 times and am a bit of an expert. I've stayed at hotels 3-5 stars. I truly enjoy everything about Dreams. Customer service was excellent, food extremely good (like I've said other inclusives offer free food but wouldn't call it good). The mini coronas in the room were the icing on the cake. The pools were smaller than other hotels but you got to know the other guests and feels less cold than some of the bigger places. Room service was great, kids club was great. We went in October and got to release the baby turtles. Awesome. $5 taxi ride to downtown. I'm not a review writter I just wanted others to know what a find this place is.
“Nice Place, Loved it!”
Would have been nice to have a completed Spa. I beat it will be very nice when completed.
“Great Trip”
This is a great hotel. The food was better than at any other all inclusive I have been to, and the staff could not do more to help. The pools are great. You can go to the main pool if you want activity of one of the other pools if you want a quiet place to spend the day. The only down side to the hotel as the lack of evening activitys. A couple of nights there was a live band in one of the bar areas, but on the other night there was nothing going on after 9:00.
