"Awesome Location Mediocre Room"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 24, 2013
The Buenaventura is located just a few blocks from the "happenin" Malecon and restaurants. We did not do all-inclusive during our stay so that we can enjoy the restaurants in the town. We were promised a European Plan breakfast through Hotels.com at this hotel, but the hotel didn't know about that deal. We explained to the manager and showed them our printed confirmation and they honored the request. For that fact, I think the staff was attentive to our needs. The condition of the hotel was nice, except that our hotel room door wouldn't lock. Our room was located on the street side of the hotel without a balcony, so it was a little noisy, but ok. The bathroom smelled a little like mildew, which is common in warm climates. The lock on the room safe was busted open, and not usable! The staff was all very friendly. The pool side entertainment was fun. The pools and grounds were great. I would stay here again due to it's location and that it was a clean hotel.

"lousy wifi / wonderful place"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 27, 2013
Some rooms in terrible shape (scuffed walls & torn sofa). Had to look @ a few. Beautiful views and fantastic housekeepers! Loved area. Annoyingly slow wifi - sending emails a challenge - forget about Internet phone apps like viber or magicjack. Had to go to starbucks or other cafes. TINY POOL.
"The staff are what make this resort awesome!"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 7, 2013
I stayed at the Friendly (Hola) Vallarta for 4 nights between Christmas and New Year's Eve. I can't emphasize enough how amazing the staff were - from the maids, bartenders, waiters, activities directors, bellhop - ALL of them are super nice and exactly what they claim - FRIENDLY! Always happy, ready to make you laugh and go above/beyond to make you smile. The rooms are charming, only slightly dated/worn but kept very clean. The grounds were impeccably maintained, but during this busy season it was hard during peak hours to find a lounger/chair. I was also surprised to find the majority of the guests were from Mexico, but I guess that is common during the week I stayed.
"An airline employee's view point"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 3, 2012
My neighbors were staying a week in their time share. I found a better rate on Hotels.com than my corporate web site. I only stayed two nights but found it to be very enjoyable. The grounds were perfect. I had an ocean front room. I did not hear any noise at night. I am considering bringing my family here some time. I know it might be hard to understand but it can be both a family vacation and also a romantic get away
