Elliut was an excellent concierge from beginning to end. Going above and beyond to make our dad's birthday special with decorations. He was so patient and our big group tried to decide about dinner reservations and help to make our requests happen. our room was kept very clean and all staff were kind and helpful. Food was delicious and so many options?

We stayed in the Family Selection with 2 other families. The staff was amazing, especially Moses who was very friendly and helped calm my son down when he tripped and fell on the morning we were leaving. We ended up upgrading to an ocean view suite as the first room we were assigned looked onto construction of a new building next door. The entertainment for the kids was great and the Family Selection pool and restaurant were perfect for families travelling with children.

Great hotel has everything you need. High end restaurants but you don’t have to worry about the bill. I enjoyed all restaurants. Great atmosphere, family oriented. My concierge was Eliutt he was great. He made our stay very enjoyable and we were very happy. We were treated with kindness. I have visited different all inclusive hotels some a little more expensive and others less expensive but this one is the best of all. The concierge’s supervisor was very beginning. They even let you enjoy installations before they have your room ready and you can also check out late, enjoying all the amenities and your luggage can stay in the lobby. I recommend the family selection you won’t regret.

When we arrived, we’re welcomed with drinks and an Expedia concierge (Eliutt) to guide us to the room, as well as telling us a little bit about the hotel. We got a room with the view of a construction site, which was not the greatest. The pools were not very clean; it might be due to spill of drinks. They have a beautiful beach and many activities such as surfing lessons. The only restaurant I would recommend is The Nest. The Nest has so much good food. We would like to thank Expedia concierge Eliutt for his excellent service during our stay. He kept in touch with us on the very first day and until the day we checked out.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Overall, our family, and group of 11 total had a good time. The food at all of the a la carte restaurants was fantastic. The Bamboo Japanese restaurant I could have eaten at every night. The pools were good, but the activities that were scheduled for kids were often late or didn’t happen at all. The rooms were okay, our A/C didn’t really work and was never fixed, our room was missed for cleaning once, and the toilet ran non stop which was loud. I attempted to order room service one night and it just never showed up which was disappointing. Obviously we didn’t spend a lot of time in the rooms but they definitely need some work. The bartending staff was great and made delicious drinks for both adults and kids. Beach access was easy and lots of activities there like body boarding and surfing. It was a good place but not one that I’m going to book repeatedly.

This was pur first time going to an all inclusive resort stay. My 77 year old mother joined us as well. The staff was amazing and helpful. They used a wheelchair to move her around and were really nice about it as well. The pool, beach, natural pool, and the natural landscape were amazing. We hope to be back again!

This was an great option for our family with two younger kids. Staff was very attentive and clearly prioritized the guest experience.

Was not impressed with the beach at this resort. Thankfully we had a rental car and drove to Puerto Vallerta and San Pancho on separate days where the beaches were big and beautiful. The restaurants at the Palladium were good, but the buffet was average. The staff was absolutely amazing and we liked our room. The grounds were well cared for and nice.

We stayed at the Family Selection. Our room was nice enough. It was great to have access to a dedicated pool for our family. It was also nice to have a host located in our building that we could ask questions and get help with reservations and connecting with other parts of the hotel outside of the Family Selection area such as the spa and restaurants.

Overall it was a good stay. Property could use some upkeep. The gardens were dusty from construction next door. The pools did not feel clean. The property needed better signage/directory to get to places. Staff overall were nice but we noticed a change when we wouldn’t accept a discussion on their travel club program. Right away they hit us up on this and after a long day of travel that was the last thing we wanted. They rushed our greeting/explanation of amenities so found ourselves guessing the entire time. Food could be better, I wanted more authentic Mexican food. I get they want to provide a luxurious experience but as an American I want to experience Mexican culture. Once we turned downed the travel club we were never offered any type of experience or excursions. Nightly entertainment is great and the area where it’s set up is great, lots of seating and kids entertainment was fun and age appropriate!

The staff was incredibly nice. We honestly couldn’t have been happier with staff. Be aware lots of stairs. if you stay in in the family selection and you’re in building four, you’ll hear the loud music at night. Didn’t bother us but it may bother young kids. Beach area pool everything was awesome.

We stayed in several different hotels between Puerto Vallarta- Punta de Mita and this was our favourite! The others were Riu Vallarta, Marivel Emotions, Delta Marriott La Cruz, & Velas Vallarta The food here was fab & we felt it was the best & it was the only place we were able to get blueberries, blackberries, strawberries & raspberries for the baby (though we skipped the raspberries as they were covered in flies as the food was uncovered which is 1 improvement that could easily be made) the service brilliant, the staff very helpful & even cooked a plateful of asparagus for the baby. The Nest restaurant food & service was great. (Though they did somehow forget to bring kids breakfast but there was plenty of other stuff to eat whilst waiting so no big deal) We did a night in the main hotel in an ocean view room which was nice (but couldn’t see the ocean from the bed which we had been able to in other hotels that used glass screen/metal railings etc on the balcony instead of a wall) and a night in the family selection side. It was nice to get some little gifts in the family selection like bucket/spade, top etc. The beach was better on the main side with some soft sand areas (also some rocks & lots of beautiful shells) the food in the main restaurant was really good too. We were just disappointed we couldn’t get a space in the Japanese restaurant. The pools were warm except the kids pool with the slides (would have thought the kids pool more important to be warm) baby

Our stay was good overall but we really didn’t find the food at some of the restaurants very flavourful. I was disappointed with the Bamboo, Italian and the Mexican. There were some good things on each menu but nothing that would make us want to return. The service and the staff were excellent at the resort and we had no complaints with how friendly and welcoming they were. The Nest & the International were our favourites but sometimes the food was inconsistent and not always hot. Drinks were good but I found the bar ran out of certain things often & we would have to order something else. Also, the coffee bar in the Family Selection only opened at 11 am and there were no instructions on how to use the equipment so we never went back. The resort was a good size for our family and we enjoyed the spa and my kids loved having room service. The rooms were a good size but a little outdated and with 2 teenagers the pull out bed was too small. I had asked our Expedia rep about options and the manager was supposed to contact me but that never happened. For these reasons we would likely not return to this resort.
