    "Sunsets, Ziplines, and Magic Moments: A Perfect Family Escape by the Cove"

    What a wonderful location, peaceful and away from the busy city center. Tower 2 is a fantastic spot to enjoy the sunset, and the cove is perfect for daily kayaking. We stayed in a double en suite room on the 9th floor, which came with extra amenities and was perfect for our family of three. The beds were very comfortable, the pillows were thick and plush, and housekeeping provided excellent service, definitely worth tipping daily. We brought $1, $5, and $10 bills for tips and left gratuities at every meal, drink, and excursion. Be sure to reserve your pool chairs early with towels, or you might miss out on a good spot. Coffee from the Premier Lounge is excellent, and the gym is well-equipped. Make all your dining and spa reservations for the week at the Premier Lounge as early as possible. The spa was wonderful, especially the pedicure and deep tissue massage. Booking VIP transport to and from the resort is more expensive, but well worth it for the comfort and ease. The food was generally good, keeping in mind they are cooking for large numbers of guests. The ribeye was delicious but very large. The grilled lamb chops were outstanding, even better without the sauce. The calamari and antipasto bar were also tasty. There are three great pool areas to choose from: a kids' pool, an adults-only pool, and a lively family pool with music and games. We loved seeing wildlife like whales, iguanas, birds, and even a falcon. Bring a Yeti tumbler for your coffee and cold beverages, and remember to tip your poolside servers. We celebrated a birthday during our stay, and the staff surprised us with cake, champagne, and a celebratory song at dinner. We were also lucky enough to witness a wedding, it was beautiful and joyful. The poolside games and activities were fun for both participants and spectators. The 19-line zipline adventure was spectacular, definitely purchase the photo package, and try going upside down! The shrimp tacos were especially delicious. The quad biking tour was dusty but fun, bring extra clothing for that. Go see the giant Iguana, and the rock shaped like a bum. This was a wonderful family holiday and well worth it. Although my husband and I both had a brief flu with headaches for one day, and our son experienced food poisoning on the last day, these did not define our trip. The weather was perfect, the staff were kind, and our time together was magical.

    Beautiful location, amazing staff, not very quiet

    Loved the staff here (Adelina, Cesar, all the concierges) and the amazing location right on Playa Mismaloya (don't miss the sunsets). Take the very excellent free city tour! Salvador was so knowledgable, humorous and helpful. Snorkeling at Los Arcos is ridiculously close to the resort and SHOULD NOT be missed. Hotel not a very quiet place for us nappers and earlyish to bed people.

    Family reunion

    Request building 2, and floors above the 4th floor. The location is stunning however the noise level at night is ridiculous. We could not sleep with the window open because of the loud music and noise going late into the night / early morning hours.

    Love being served by all the staff st buffet, esp Angel

    Yes, the best. Came gere wuth my family of 11 members. We treated with uotmost respect, care and lovr. The staff of Barcelo Puerto Villarta, Buffet is like family. They went above and beyond to make sure that the visitors are treated as vest as they could be. The Staff kept coming around to ask if we needed anything. The Ambuance is great. Pool, Housekeeping, Water lady, Bar, Buffet are highly professoonal. I recommend Barcelo to anyone and its money's worth abd more. BEST quality drinks. Made us happy to tip more as we felt so humbled by the Best Service . Love and Regards Manno and Roshni Ram
