10/10 Exceptional

Amazing all inclusive to stay at. The food was amazing with 3 different restaurants to eat at. Its right on the beach and the places to sit or lay are covered in shade by palm trees so you won't burn. The water is 6.5/10 not clear but not dirty, still enjoyable to swim in though. The only negaitve thing I can think of is in most other all inclusives the mini fridge has alot of alchol in it, but at this place they just put to beers in the fridge each day. 4.5/5 is what I give this place.

4/10 Fair

We have stayed at the Friendly 4 times. Before this stay we were very happy with everything. Talked with others staying here and they felt the same. It seems the hotel was way overbooked. So many people in the pools and very loud. Adult pool was not patrolled like the sign said, adults only. My wife is highly allergic to dogs and cats, dogs were allowed around the pool area barking at young kids as they passed by. Dogs on our floor barked everytime someone walked by their room. See dogs twice pee on the corners of the beds around the pool. Also seen one poop around the pool area. There was some positive things with a few of the employees. Daniel front desk, Francisco dining manager, Ignasio and Double Double. These four people went above and beyond to try and nake our stay more pleasant. Unfortunately we will stay at other resorts when we visit PV again.

6/10 Good

Friendly Fun Vallarta had great food and drinks! The all inclusive covers just about that, entertainment is a small pool, the beach, and live music. The rooms were maintained clean, but often not well serviced from basic things like replacing shampoos, no washcloths available, and no refrigerator or microwave. The rooms very very basic. Although I would return for the food, the rooms were too basic for this price range.
