Took my wife for her birthday for 6 nights . Best resort we have ever stayed at, out of around 20 different ones. The service was above and beyond by every member of their team. Christian and Ray at the pool got us VIP lounge chairs every day. They entire pool staff made us feel like VIP's. The food was top notch at every restaurant. Beef tenderloin was as good as any I've had. Breakfast was always delicious and plentiful. Every request was met with a smile and promptness. Our room was a panoramic junior suite that had an amazing view of the pools and ocean views for sunsets nightly. All the reviews about timeshare pitches, locals on the beach, and owners getting better treatment are all false. Never had a single issue with any of this. Best resort for the money! We will be scheduling another trip at Garza. They make you feel so welcomed. When you arrive take a taxi for $30.00 US dollars. It is 45 minutes, but a good way to see the area.

We liked our spacious room with ocean views, food overall, staff was always super helpful, service at dining restaurants, some of the activities were great: kayaking, yoga and hiking. We didnt like the trolley transportation, limited breakfast buffet, dinining reservation system, swimming area on the beach is very small, not enough chairs at the main pool.

This resort was by far the most beautiful place we have stayed at. We have been to PV a few times but this was the first time at this resort and it was better than expected. The grounds are beautiful, clean, and the staff were always so attentive and friendly. We received an upgrade to Mousai upon our arrival and it was an absolute dream. The rooftop pool and bar were great. Every single meal we had at this resort was top notch and the drinks were amazing as well. We can’t wait to go back!

Bait and switch. I booked a 2 bedroom, hot-tub, ocean view. The photos on the site were not the photos of the room I received. I tried to get this addressed, but person checking us in, their shift ended and he needed to leave. The next day we tried to address it again and there were no other rooms. We were offered messages to correct the error. The room we booked was 3200 sq feet, the room we stayed in was half of that size and we’re on the first floor. People were throwing things over the balcony, people were walking in front of our balcony, so we couldn’t enjoy our view. I also found the excess pressure to tip for everything was stressful, especially considering all-inclusive should take that stress away. In addition, when buying an all-inclusive plan, that is supposed to cover everything, but we were constantly told that meals, or options were an additional charge. Perhaps the person that did our check in didn’t do a good job with explaining everything, which left me feeling like a second class citizen during my stay. In fact, at one point our concierge told us that is why we should pay to become a member, then we wouldn’t have to worry about getting the wrong room or having to pay for services. I paid for 3 nights, all-inclusive, meaning I paid for everything up front, but then getting a smaller room, without all of the options I paid for, then being charge additional for meals and drinks, this place was a scam. I would never return and I will tell everyone I know.

We loved our stay at Garza Blanca. The service was great. Every member of the staff was genuinely friendly from the moment we arrived. The property is beautiful. We spent a day at the beach, a day at the main pool and a day at the upper pool. Enjoyed catch of the day ( be sure to take advantage of that, check the dates it’s offered upon arrival). You have to pay extra, but it’s totally worth it. The room was spectacular. I could have just stayed in the room the entire time and still enjoyed my vacation thoroughly. We ordered room service for breakfast and enjoyed it out on the balcony, while admiring the views. The food at the restaurants was good. I loved Hiroshi. I highly recommend this resort and will definitely go back.

I recently stayed at Hotel Garza Blanca and had an amazing experience. The all-inclusive package included access to the adult-only restaurants at Hotel Mousai, which were outstanding. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the personalized service as we were greeted by our last name and the bellhops efficiently handled our luggage. Our check-in process was flawless, thanks to our concierge Moon, who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout our stay. Moon even helped my wife with a forgotten item, showing exceptional dedication to guest satisfaction. Pancho, our excursion advisor, was knowledgeable and helped us choose the best activities during our stay. I must also mention that the wait staff by the pools and restaurants were top-notch. They were attentive, friendly, and always ensured that we had everything we needed. Whether it was a refreshing drink by the pool or a delicious meal at one of the restaurants, the service was consistently excellent. The hotel boasts stunning views and a top-notch staff that truly enhances the Puerto Vallarta experience. I would rate Hotel Garza Blanca 10 out of 10 stars for its outstanding service, amenities, and overall hospitality.
