Accommodation near Garza Blanca Beach

Overall we experienced a great stay at Barcelo Puerto Vallarta. We stayed for 7 days between April 15th and 22nd, with sunny blue skies every day. The location was perfect - lots of activities both at the resort and around that you could do. We did one day with the boat excursions through the hotel (Jack Sparrow), heading to a waterfall and snorkelling. You could see fish without even snorkeling. Mismaloya itself has a few different tequila tasting places, convenience stores, and lots nearby. The rooms were surprisingly big and clean. We probably could have fit the four of us in one room if we wanted. The restaurants and buffet was pretty good. Lots of options at the buffet and they do different theme nights so some were better than others (e.g. mexican night, seafood night, prime rib night). The Los Arcos was our favourite restaurant. Some food was amazing and some was meh, so just depends what you get. Resort staff was all very friendly and made sure you weren't bored. There is a daily board showing all the activities you can choose from (e.g. beach volleyball, archery, airsoft shooting, water aerobics, blackjack, bingo). With the sport activities there wasn't as much participation but still enough to have fun. On busier days with weddings or events there may be less staff around but you can always get a drink at the cantina if they aren't coming around the pools. Would recommend.

Perfect for a girls' retreat! Having a small kitchen and bar on-site was helpful given the location. Rooms were comfortable and well-appointed.

First class service and food! Spacious rooms and loved the rooftop pools. We will be back.

I stayed here for my birthday and I had a wonderful time . The view from my room was AMAZING ! The service was excellent. My only complaint was trying to be forced to go to meeting for “timeshares” . They should respect that you decline to attend

I like the pool and food.

Garza Blanca is a wonderful resort. Everything is first class, and the area is beautiful. I’ve stayed there several times, and I highly recommend it.
