returning from our three week stay in puerto vallarta and wanted to make sure that the buenaventura was recognized as an hotel to consider staying at. We received a wonderful welcome of tamarind margueritas, and prompt check in to our room by enthusiastic and friendly staff. We stayed here twice on our trip, two nights at the beginning of our... more

Having stayed for 2 weeks at the Buenaventura in FEB of 2004, 2005, and 2007, our 'vacation' from Dec 1-15/08 there was a HUGE disappointment. Ownership and management has changed and the place isn't even CLOSE to what it was !! Yes, they have made renovations, BUT even with the hotel at least 1/2 (empty/full), they managed to get our... more

There we 6 of us 3 couples, we had a great time. The hotel is located right downtown PV and was perfect for the Mexico explorer. The Hotel could not do enough for us, the staff were more than happy to help. I would not recommend a room facing the main street if you are a light sleeper, the traffic... more

My husband and I stayed here from November 5 - 12. We had a relaxing, enjoyable week. The staff treats customers like royalty - from the front desk to housekeeping to food and beverage services. Be aware that if you choose all inclusive that the bracelet is terminated at check out (12:00) and it costs $100 pesos per person per... more

The service was one of a kind, the food was always hot, different and pretty yummy! The rooms are simple, clean and very accommodating. These include a flat screen tv, a... more

We stayed at the Buenaventura Grand Hotel and Spa and loved it. We had a balcony view that overlooked the bay as well as the beautiful garden and pools below. The king sized bed was very firm to hard and very comfortable. The shower drained backed up when we showered, and when we tried to rinse some clothes out in... more
