ARE EXPECTING A RELAXING AND PEACEFUL VACATION? A few weeks back we used Expedia to book a flight+Hotel package to La Estansia hotel in Puerto Vallerta, Mexico for our anniversary. Expedia website clearly mentioned SERVICE ANIMALS WELCOME ( I have screenshots); we booked it all and travelled to the hotel only to be told by the hotel that “Expedia had made a mistake” and they do NOT allow any pets NOR service animals; We were devastated , at 8pm at night , tired and hungry , contacted Expedia and the only choice they gave us was the inferior sister hotel next door that was NOT up to standard. It had very poor-quality Food (flies on food and off shrimps), dirty shower room, lobby with no A/C and 100F, one staff entered our room late evening without knocking just to get a plate from our kitchen; the hotel even charged us cleaning fee for my little Service animal. As a result of all this unplanned distress for ending up in a NOT-up-to-standard hotel because of Expedia’s huge mistake that completely ruined our anniversary celebrations, my wife was in a really bad state of panic attack and could not sleep all night; we wanted to travel back next day but she was not well at all to be able to travel. Expedia offered us some cashback that was never a replacement for the lost time and stress and anxiety and emotional distress that we felt during that week.

The property was good, but the all inclusive was a bit weird. You still had to sign for every meal and drink which is not normal for all inclusive. We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite and fridge was not stocked on arrival either. Great place but needs some improvements.

The property is well kept, rooms are clean, up to date and the vibe was chill for the most part. As the week went on and started to get busier, the vibe was starting to get a little routy which we aren’t used to staying at this resort. The restaurants are decent but the highlight restaurant funny enough is the pool bar/restaurant. Ricardo provides the best service. Other than the pool bar, other restaurants food is average and service is slow but other than that, it’s great. The concierge is well the concierge, always trying to upsell you on services and were not trying to allow to use the $75 daily credit provided by Expedia to use for hydrotherapy even though it was a spa service and nothing stated it couldn’t be used for that. Good thing my wife was able to communicate effectively for them to finally approve it. They tried to force us to use it for only massage services while nothing in the details or terms mention that. Overall, a great place to stay if you want a chill environment (for the most part), beach is great, service is also really good for the price and package we received. Would recommend to friends and family to stay here

We absolutely loved our stay. We were a party of 12 and had the two-bedroom suite and three standard rooms. The two bedroom suite was incredible and allowed for SO much space, especially traveling with older children (they have their own room entirely with their own entrance). The food was great and the service was excellent. We will definitely be back.

As frequent travelers who often rely on the consistency and elevated service promised by Expedia’s VIP Access properties, our stay at Villa La Estancia in Puerto Vallarta was a disappointment from the outset. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Emily at the front desk—whose demeanor felt more dismissive than welcoming. Rather than setting the tone for a luxury stay, her attitude came off as sarcastic and indifferent, especially when we kindly reminded her of our Expedia VIP status. Instead of honoring the complimentary upgrade benefit—as is customary with VIP properties—she offered it only for an additional fee. The perk was not just disregarded, it was flatly brushed off without a hint of hospitality. The resort itself appeared far from fully booked, yet no effort was made to extend even a small courtesy. It felt less like a guest experience and more like a transaction. Sadly, the service culture throughout the property echoed the same energy—technically polite but completely uninspired. Dining is limited to two restaurants, both with sluggish service and menus that lack creativity. For a resort that touts an AAA Diamond rating, the food and hospitality fall short of even basic boutique standards. We attempted to escalate the matter by reaching out to General Manager Miguel Velasco, but his contact information isn’t easily accessible. Our email to mvelasco@villagroup.com went unanswered, which unfortunately reflects the broader lack of attentiveness we experienced throughou
