Great Value
On a recent trip to PV, we wanted to split our trip and spend half of the time in Nuevo Vallarta and the other in PV to be near restaurants and culture. We spent four days at the Buenaventura and got exactly what we expected. The location was fantastic, were we able to walk to the Malecon, restaurants and shops or take a very cheap taxi. Our reservation included breakfast which was a great value, we purposefully didnt go with the all inclusive plan. The room was nice, and pretty clean. Good sheets, decent bathroom and ample space. My two major complaints were the cleanliness of the hallways, they really could use a good cleaning, there were dead bugs and other nasty rubbish. The other complaint was that the music was way too loud at the pool. Other than that we really liked it.
Great spot for exploring PV.

Get a room on the beach side
We got stuck in a room next to the elevator on the very noisy street side and it was too inconvenient for the hotel to move us to any other room

Little charmer in the heart of PV
The staff was excellent, the all in-clusive plan was well worth it!!!! Have recommended the Buenaventura to others already!
We went in October-off season and there was great deals to be had!
