"Exceptional"
The hotel and its grounds were taken care of daily, pools and activities were entertaining. One negative is that you have to pay for wifi, besides that the stay was amazing and definitely a place I wanna come back to.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

On our vacation, we saw that the service was great, very clean, great food, and really enjoyed our stay there.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent Mexican Vacation Site"
Marival Residences: Beautiful, quiet location with easy & inexpensive access to other towns, restaurants, activities. Marival Residence Hotel is one of finest vacation sites we have traveled to: Excellent variety of food in 3, on site restaurants. Food & drinks around the pools and to your rooms. Large apartments are very clean, modern with great ocean […] views. Service is excellent from very polite, well trained staff. We plan to vacation again at the Marival Residences.

"A Truly Restful Vacation"
It was a wonderfully relaxing vacation. But there are also lots of activities if you care to participate The all-inclusive part was very good. The room service was great, the staff was more than helpful at all times, and variety of food was good. The individual restaurants were very good; however, if you're interested in them, you probably need to make […] reservations for them as soon as you arrive. The time-share presentation was the only "pressuring" thing there. I don't think you HAVE to attend the presentation unless you sign up that way. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Family Oriented Hotel but Great Fun for Adults."
Stayed at the hotel in mid September, it is low season so it was not crowded. They have themed nights for the menu. They have a nice variety of food, the food was good, did not care for the orange juice as it was from a machine and was very water down. The alcoholic drinks were good and plenty. They have activities for the kids in the pool and outside […] of the pool. There is plenty of things to do. They keep all areas of the hotel very clean, the rooms, pool, restaurants, gardens, etc. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much. It is a family oriented hotel but they have an adult only pool. The only negative is the sales pitch but once you say no they will leave you alone. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Great Vacation"
This was our first time traveling outside of the USA. We was nervous and excited. I think that we did a great job picking Marival. There was so much to offer and the staff was super friendly. This is a great place for families with kids. I felt like it was not a packed as the beaches in the states that we have visited. We will defiantly recommend Marival […] to everyone we kow.

"Great Experience!"
This was my first time going to an all-inclusive resort, and it was fantastic! My husband and I went for our honeymoon. There were a lot of families, but all the children I came across were very well-behaved. Room was great, very clean and comfortable. The buffet food was average, but the Specialty Restaurants were delicious- I would highly recommend […] making reservations at all of them. Bartenders were great, they would you make you whatever you requested. You did have to get up early to get a chair on the beach, so if you're not a morning person, it could be a little tough. I do not have anything bad to say about the place. We had an amazing experience, and look forward to going back soon! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great all-inclusive at a reasonable price"
We have travelled here as a couple and also with our family. Both were great for different reasons. The food is pretty good overall but could use some updating. The suite we had this time around was very nice. The beds are a bit tired but they do have pillow tops. The staff is great, the pool areas are very nice and clean. Our kids never got out of […] the water and had a ton of fun at the swim-up bar. They have a nice menu of kid-friendly drinks at the pool which our kiddos enjoyed.

"Great place to stay"
Went for a few days with the family, it was a very good place to stay at. Lots of options of things to do. Not as many food options as other All Included, but the quality was good. The restaurants were very good dining. The hotel itself has a good layout, and you don't feel too overcrowded. I would recommend this place and will go back soon.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Needs A Mexican Restaurant"
Everything was fine except for the Mexican restaurant, which was pretty surprising given the location.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Will be going back again next year."
This is a great place to go and visit. I have been there three times and plan to go back and visit again. They make you fill at home. Over the years the staff remember our group and welcome us.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Will go back to Marival again."
Wonderful place for a vacation whether its family or just for 2 adults. Excellent food with such a variety of restaurants. So much food to pick from, can't go hungry. All the personnel were very friendly. No one can ever be bored. So many activities for all, but plenty of resting time if needed.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Wonderful vacation!"
Had a fabulous trip! Only downside was that the ocean and activity shack were "closed" due to all of the sting rays.Genuine Expedia guest review
"A great place to relax and enjoy life."
The room was cleaned daily. There was a wide choice of dining facilities. The food was great with choices for every meal. The pool was warm and th ebeer cold. We have been here before and will return, possible next year.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Best All Inclusive ever"
We came all the way from sweden to stay at this Hotel and everything was Perfect, We totally loved it and cant wait to go back next year... The Resturants where amazingGenuine Expedia guest review
"great family vacation"
The marival is a great place for families, the food selection is abundant and there are many different type of restaurants to pick from. You won't go hungry. There is a different theme each night in the buffet. For the a la cartes, reserve prior to your departure or get up early to book your favorite spot as space is limited.These restaurants are more […] upscale dining. we had teenage boys and took advantage of the bikes on site, tennis courts and rock climbing is also available. I would recommend buying your own boogie boards (approx. 10-15$) as on red flag days the hotel will not hand them out. you can buy them on site in the sports hut on the beach. We just passed them on to another family when we left. The mexican fiesta is very good at the hotel. They had mexican theme night at the buffet and were then pleasantly surprised when we went to the fiesta, they were cooking there as well. There was candy apples, cotton candy,drinks and numerous different cooking stations set up. For a resort they do a nice fiesta and touch on the culture of their beautiful country. The staff are very friendly and the rooms are decent and clean. If you are looking for a spa like resort, with top of the line everything then this is not the place for you. But if you want a good family resort with good value for your money the marival is the place. As a family we also felt very safe in this area and hotel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Best all inclusive !!!"

"One of the best options in Nuevo Vallarta"
Excellent hotel, great meals, my 2 kids had a lot of fun, swimming pools were great and beverages too. Not too fancy, but great experience, I really recomend Marival.

"Marival - Awesome Beachfront Location"
One of the best deals I ever got on a hotel. The all-inclusive was great. Overall the food was comparable to good cruise food, but for the price it was above expectations. The resort had a good size stretch of beach and several well maintained pools including an adult only pool. I loved the many palapas and lounge chairs right on the beach. They give […] great shade considering I burn pretty easily. The service was excellent, probably the best part of the trip. My only warning would be the timeshare pitch when you first arrive. They offer you resort credit and other extras if you agree to listen to a 2 hour timeshare hard sell. Me and my wife agreed and we got a free spa day and a bottle of tequila, which overall I think was worth it (we did not buy the timeshare). Just make sure to be persistent about saying no to the timeshare purchase unless of course that's something you want. I would recommend negotiating the 'bribes' and extras they give you to hear the timeshare pitch and make sure you get exactly what you want, they will give you almost anything to agree to hear it.

"Perfect for families!"
It is very nice to have pools options (kids waterslides, party pool, quiet family pool, quiet adult pool). The beach is perfect, nice sand, perfect with kids.

"Superb attention from all personnel"
The hotel is very nice and have all the facilities you'd like to have on an all inclusive beach resort. What it really made a difference for me and my family was the superb attention we received from all personnel before and during our stay. The day we came in, it was my wife's birthday, and they had ready all I asked for her, and they were always attentive […] to how things were about it. Congratulation to all personnel. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that it was kind of crowded the first two days, and with people not that nice. Pools were really dirty, good thing we love the beach.

"Wow!"
This resort was absolutely perfect for our family. We are planning to go back. Everything was immaculate, rooms were very confortable, the food was unbeleivably delicious, lots of variety. The quantity of restaurants was great. Our family enjoyed lots of the available activities (sea kayak, catamaran, boogie boarding, rock climbing, mini-golf...). The […] beach was perfectly clean. The staff was efficient, helpful, knowledgeable and very kind. This facility provided us with the opportunity to relax and bound. What more to ask? Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Excellent Value, Great Resort, Fun Family Vacation Experience"
What a great All-Inclusive experience at this resort! Great food, excellent activity choices, very clean rooms, friendly staff. Nuevo Vallarta is a safe neighbourhood, so grab one of the resort's complimentary bikes and go for a ride! Swimming / boogie boarding on the beach was excellent. Just be aware that complimentary use of boogie boards from the […] resort are for one hour at a time. To avoid charges, return your board after an hour and then sign it out again if you want. Don't swim too close to the ropes in the ocean as the waves can throw you into them and cause painful scrapes/rope burns. Overall, we had an extremely enjoyable time --- we have a pre-teen girl and teenaged boy --- equally excellent for ALL ages, numerous available activities allow opportunity to meet & make new friends. Beach Volleyball, Shuffleboard, not to mention swimming in the pools..... Go to the Marival Resort, an excellent beachfront property. Do not confuse this with Marival Residences, which, alhtough is a beautiful property, one must take a shuttle to get to the beach --- for our family, with kids going back and forth to the suite, the Marival Resort was super convenient and safe. WE ENTHUSIASTICALLY RECOMMEND THIS RESORT! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Ideal para viajar con niños!!"
No conocía el hotel y lo que me llamó la atención fue que las albercas están climatizadas y al ir en temporada de invierno fue un plus (nada peor que viajar al mar y no entrar a la alberca por estar el agua fría!). Su lobby es muy bonito, el registro fue muy rápido y pronto estábamos disfrutando del mar y de la alberca. Las personas que están en el […] equipo de animación son muy amables y tratan de hacer tu estancia divertida. Me llamó la atención que el hotel es bastante grande, tiene alberca para adultos, club para niños, alberca infantil, zona tranquila y alberca de juegos!!. En opciones para comer, está bastante variado. Como recomendación en cuanto se registren hagan las reservaciones en los restaurantes de especialidades, nosotros sólo visitamos 2 pues los otros días ya estaban llenos... pero los que visitamos fueron deliciosos, un servicio excelente y un ambiente agradable!! (las reservaciones las puedes hacer en un horario de 8 a 5 pm). La playa está increíble, con tonos dorados, muy tranquila. El tour a ver a las ballenas es altamente recomendable! el barco está excelente para viajar con niños pequeños. Definitivamente regresaría a este hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
