Do not stay here and by all means DO NOT agree to to the timeshare presenation. A 1 hour presentation turned into 4 and I somehow was talked into buying a timeshare. I've been to these things before, and left without a problem, but these guys are skillful scammers. I cancelled my purchase within the Mexican 5-day cooling off period,... more

At check in, they go through a hardsell approach to buy a timeshare they call a Fractional Ownership. Takes notes when they speak to you. We didn't. Most of what we were told that would be included was not on the contract. If you agreement to purchase, you are told they will contact you in a day or two. We... more

We, and our 52 guests stayed at Velas Vallarta during the week of the wedding. We did not have the wedding on site. However, we did have the welcome cocktail, rehearsal dinner, etc. on site. We had 54 people staying here, and it was amazing. We had about half of the group staying in RCI rooms that my father-in-law booked,... more

My husband & I spent a week at the Velas Vallarta. overall, the experience was good. However, I would try a different place if I were to return to PV again. In US terms..I would consider this a 3-4 star hotel..not a 4-5 star. The rooms were clean & we had a lovely view of the pool & ocean from... more

We originally had booked another hotel in Puerto Vallarta but we were hounded by timeshare people in the airport and they convinced us to try the Vellas. Don't get fooled like we did. The timeshare presentation is a complete scam. They convinced us to pay $16,000 and told us that we were "guaranteed" to received $5,000 in rental payments over... more

We stayed at Velas Vallarta 3 times and really liked the resort. We felt it was very family oriented and a fun place to stay. The food was good, and the service was great. However the time share presentation was a scam. We were told at the presentation that we would get our money back through rentals, and we could... more

What can we say? This was our 4th trip to Velas in less than 2 years. The first week we stayed at a condo but spent most of our time at Velas. First we went to see Donald, he can and will take care of anything for you. Tino in reservations always does a fabulous job. Martin at Andreas is... more

My wife and I were looking for a special vacation to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and spent over a month looking for the right place. We are frequent vacationers in Mexico as well as other central American countries and have stayed in a broad spectrum of facilities from five star resorts as well as private villas and rental houses.... more

This has mentioned in several posts, but it is hard to call this hotel a 4 star or 5 star hotel. We had a great time at the hotel, and it is nice but if you are a hotel snob you should be aware before you book. I, my wife and two children (4yo and 2yo) stayed at the Velas... more
