We had a lovely stay at Velas Vallarta. The room, grounds and staff were all excellent and Al was incredibly easy and friendly to communicate with. We didn't stay in Al's apartment because there was some maintenance work happening near by, so the hotel moved us to an amazing suite and we were really happy. The whole resort is spotless and I would love to return one day.

4 nights at Casa de Herman

We had a great 4 nights at this condo and at this resort. My family of four had plenty of space, and the kids loved the grounds with the pools, koi, peacocks, and tropical feeling. We all enjoyed relaxing by the pools or out on the balcony, and felt like it was easy to charge what we needed to the room, and also leave the property for other meals. We walked to the marina twice and ate meals, walked around, and just enjoyed the scenery. We visited the Mexican Fiesta on Sunday night with the kids and enjoyed it very much. I would highly recommend staying here for the price, comfort and space, and the overall resort experience.

Great condo with views of the bay

Fantastic location on beautiful resort. Al was a gracious host who was very attentive and responsive to all our questions. We thoroughly enjoyed morning coffees and late night drinks on the patio overlooking the pools and ocean. Place was clean and contained all the needed amenities. Staying in July we enjoyed the air conditioning and helped us cool off when needed. We enjoyed all the resort shows and activities and quick walk to the marina or short cab downtown. Staff was excellent and even had an on site doctor to check our kids when they suffered some bad swimmers ear. We would highly recommended this condo and look forward to returning on our next trip back.

Great Family Vacation- Amazing Views

This property was perfect for me, my wife and two kids to vacation on spring break. We had access to convenience of all inclusive resort without having to pay all inclusive prices. The condo was great, and as advertised with the exception of the views. The view from the condo was truly stunning and a pleasant surprise. We enjoyed our time at the pool and beach with access to food and drinks for the kids. We didn’t purchase all inclusive option which ended up saving us lots of money and allowed us to explore local restaurants as well. Communication with the owner was easy and he was proactive to make sure we had a nice stay.

What a great location and Facility

We has a great stay. Clean condominium with incredible views. Beautiful view over the lush garden and endless pools and river feature. The grounds were like a tropical botanical garden complete with koi ponds. We were here one week after a major hurricane and everything was clean and perfect. The food in the restaurant was overpriced and was more along the lines of a cafeteria than a nice resort. But the owner Al recommended some of his local spots just a short walk away in the marina. We took a short walk and they were great. Al was an incredible host and very quick to respond and make the stay great for us. The place was very clean but slightly dated. But we had an incredible stay and will do it again and definitely recommend this place.

Not up to our standards

Unfortunately the property was not up to our standards in terms of cleanliness, safety and overall condition. The owner was very nice and gave us a refund but it still cost us 3 times more to get a different place at the last minute. So this vacation ended up putting us way over our budget.

Just what we needed

The unit was spacious enough for our little family of four. The two single beds were combined in the second bedroom so we did have to split those apart for the children. There were no hand towels to do simple dishes and we had issues getting the trash emptied by the property but finally found someone to come get the trash...dirty diapers arent a pleaseant smell. Overall the unit was great. Served its purpose. Needed a little updating and the front bathroom had some plumbing issues which we also had to get resolved through the property. The food at the resort was not the best but a quick walk to the marina led to a plethora of better food choices. Everyone at the property was friendly and helpful when needed. The view from the balcony was also great.

Fantastic spot, serene vacation!

The condo is in a great location with great views of the ocean. It's located halfway between Nuevo Vallarta and Puerto Vallarta, and minutes from the airport. The place is well taken care of and had everything we needed. It was nice to have the kitchen though we ended up eating in the onsite beachfront restaurant many times and we also walked down to the marina where there are many restaurants. Velas Vallarta is a fabulous place for kids, as it has excellent grounds with a peacock and koi ponds that meander down to the pools (that have plenty spots of sun and shade), one of which gives great views of the ocean. You can choose to do the all inclusive option if you want, though we found it easier and less expensive to just settle up on a card at the end. Al is a fantastic host, checking in to make sure things were going well and that check in was smooth. He also assisted us in arranging a room to use for an hour after check out since we had a late afternoon flight. That way, we could use the pool and facilities during the day and shower/change before our flight. Highly recommended!!!

Just right for our family

Great spot for our first trip to Mexico! Close to the airport so getting there was a breeze...beware the time share sales people inside the airport that try to lure you with free cab rides and spa services! Check in at Velas Vallarta was super easy and everyone was incredibly nice and helpful (shout out to Miguel, Jesus, and Brenda). Very safe feeling area. Fantastic ocean view from this upper level. The resort is a bit older property but is well maintained. The condo was clean and it was a blessing to have the AC kicking on arrival because it was about 95 degrees and 95% humidity. The condo was just right in size for our family (2 adults, 2 kids) and has pretty much everything you need. Yes, there are maybe a few things that could be fancier or newer, but you're on vacation at a resort in Mexico...go to the pool, go to the beach, see the town. We opted to do the all-inclusive after arrival and only for the first full day and Jesus was very helpful setting that up, and we took FULL advantage. The next day we went to the nearby grocery (5 minutes, appx 50 pesos) and stocked the fridge and spent the rest of our days by the pool, going downtown along the Malecon, doing a couple tours, and eating out in the Marina District (walkable from the resort). *You can still eat at the restaurants if you want to and bill to your room. The owner was incredibly helpful and quick to respond to all of our questions. Definitely a good option to consider for your first trip to Mexico!

Beautiful View, wonderful location!!!

I literally walked in and cried, the view was so Incredible: an unobstructed sweeping view across the full property, to the waves and across the bay. I loved the gentle sound of the waves from this location and the beautiful view from the 8th floor above the palm trees and lush landscaping. It was a perfectly situated location in the resort complex, back away from the main beachfront pool so you didn't get the full brunt of the sound from the activities in that area but you could still hear the waves, especially in the calm morning and evening hours. The staff personnel are friendly, the grounds are well maintained, the hotel architecture is beautiful. The condo was very clean and comfortable. I spent almost all my time on the balcony. There are a few things I would add or change, such as a lounge chair on the balcony, toaster and/or new toaster oven, and indeed the only discrepancy in the description is the "sleeps 6" as that would entail sleeping on the sofa or adding a hotel cot. We we only needed the 2 bedrooms. We had everything we needed to have a fantastic week. The beachfront pool area was very active and a very popular place to be. Even though I like a quieter and calmer beach/pool experience, I noticed that the guests seemed to enjoy the loud music played poolside in the afternoons as well many were enjoying all the activities and games that were offered by the great staff. We plan on coming back again....it was just wonderful!

Awesome property and location, condo a bit 'tired'

We were looking for a relaxing place away from the hustle of downtown PV and this fit the bill. The complex is beautiful and we loved all the wildlife roaming the property. We sometimes jokes this feels a bit like Jurassic Park, in a good way. Staff was super friendly and the service at the pool was outstanding. The condo itself is located in what's probably the best location: high up, straight view down to the beach, and no direct sun morning or evening. Very nice! On the flip side, the unit is a bit tired and could used some TLC (bathroom, bathtub/shower, kitchen) and furniture on the balcony comprises some uncomfortable plastic chairs. Some essentials were just missing in the kitchen, i.e. coffee filters, dish soap, hand towels, but we made due and purchased what we needed. By the end of the day, you don't spend too much time in the condo and instead you will enjoy the pool, nearby harbor, and the beach or downtown PV. Prior to our stay we asked a few questions we didn't get answers to, so here you go: Yes, you hear airplanes taking off due to the proximity to the airport (until midnight or so). It's not LAX or Heathrow, so it didn't bother us too much. Maybe a plane every 30 minutes. The beach is not really swimmable as much of the pacific coast in Mexico. Also, this area may have crocodiles due to the sweet water river coming in not too far away. We didn't see any, but no point risking it. At night I would definitely stay off the beach. All in all, we will be back!!!

Paradise in Puerto Vallarta

The views from this condo were spectacular. There was great space for four people. The beds in each bedroom were comfortable. If you wanted to cook in the condo, there were basic pans and tools available. The owner was easy to work with and was available to help us as needed. We did not do the all inclusive meal plan as we enjoyed going to the marina or taking a taxi to town for delicious meals. Although, you can eat at two restaurants on the property and can order at the pool or beach and just pay as you go. They get your credit card info at check in and everything you buy is put on your credit card. There is no need for cash. You settle up when you check out. Everyone working at the resort was amazing. Happy hour-2 for 1 was 2-3 pm. and 5-6 pm. The pool and beach employees really work their butts off and deserve good tips. There is a small grocery store on the premises, but for basic things. It is expensive. We would take the taxi about 5 minutes away to Soriano''s grocery store which was excellent. Then take a taxi back to the resort. Taxi service is so easy and one is always around. It cost around 50 pesos or around 3.00 US. each way. We tried walking there once, but it took 20 minutes. The only confusing part about Velas Vallarta was that it has a combination of condos, timeshares, and hotel which is all inclusive. Trying to figure out who was responsible for what took some time to learn. We have already booked for next year! Wish it were tomorrow.
