Read Reviews of Vela Vallarta, a Family Beach Resort in Puerto Vallarta

Family had a great time!

The service is excellent! And what a beautiful location! Rooms are well-appointed with high-quality linens, and for the most part kept very clean. My ONLY complaint is that the bed had not been swept under for some time ( I only know that because I dropped the remote and it fell under the bed).

Hotel Vellas Vallarta is the best hotel in the Jalisco section of Puerto Vallarta! It's an amazing work of art both architecturally and emotionally, it has two amazing dining options called Andrea and La Rivera. La Ribera is an amazing place to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with ocean view and Andrea as an extremely fancy dinning experience that also serves breakfast lunch and dinner but you'll need a reservation and former dress code for dinner because that's where the delicious cuisine of this hotel really shines because there is live entertainment, a buffet serving gourmet food or you can order with a menu. Each night the theme is different, it can either be Japanese food or Italian all you can eat custom pasta or even Filet mignon. The pool is also an incredible place to lounge at, there are two main pools, the family pool and the activity pool. The family pool is a warmer pool with a rock waterfall, tables, a towel return station and a charming feel to it and the activity is the larger deeper and slightly colder pool that has a net for water volleyball, a pool bar with stools in the water, iguanas lounging about and various activities in the day. Taking about the iguanas there is also a bunch of wildlife in the hotel and the iguanas is just the tip of the iceberg because there are peacocks, ducks, racoons at night, koi fish ponds spread it across the hotel, smaller lizards, an eagle, many birds and a big diversity in botanical plants. The rooms are on a completely different stratosphere than other I've been because it doesn't matter if you have a suite or not you get a kitchen with a fridge, stove, microwave and cabinets to store anything. The sheets are one of the best highlights yet with soft mattress and when they make your room they give you chocolate, what a treat. Overall this hotel is the best hotel to choose from in the Riviera and is truly a hidden gem.
