Grand Velas All Suites & Spa Resort All Inclusive is located in Nuevo Vallarta, a planned community of resorts and elegant villas with manicured gardens lining a series of winding canals. The hotel is built in contemporary Mexican style with white walls and red-tiled roofs. The high-ceilinged, spacious lobby has a thatched roof, a fountain, and lush tropical plants.

Entering the lobby, guests get their first taste of the hotel's contemporary hacienda-style architecture and character. Candles flicker in entryway alcoves, and a shallow fountain splashes near two deep-cushioned couches. From the lobby bar terrace, the pool looks cool and inviting and the golf course stretches out beyond. The guests are mostly couples from the U.S. and Mexico, and the resort maintains a tranquil atmosphere.

Dreams Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa is set between the green Sierra Madre Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. With its azure water, a private, sandy beach, and flowering gardens it retains a relaxed, natural ambience that appeals to holidaying families, couples, singles, and groups. Its various recreational facilities, from a rock climbing wall to tennis courts allow guests to choose activity while its spa, infinity pool, and sunning areas allow for tranquility.

Popular with celebrating couples and active families, the blossom-draped resort is bordered on the south side of Puerto Vallarta by a river where fishing families living on the mountainside moor their boats. On the beach south of the river is a row of open-air cantinas. Scuba divers and snorkelers enjoy the proximity to the giant offshore rocks and arches comprising Los Arcos National Park 1.75 km (1 mi) away.

The lobby is distinguished by a giant palapa 30 meters (98 feet) tall, which includes a rock-garden waterfall and stream. The resort attracts families seeking casual, open-air beach vacations. Part of the resort’s beachfront is roped off to protect sunbathing guests from being solicited by wandering beach vendors.

The Westin Resort and Spa attracts both couples and families. The hotel was designed by architect Javier Sordo Madaleno in a monumental style, with huge swatches of color (mango, bright-yellow, vivid-pink) and large, airy public spaces, including a hall lined by blue-tile waterfalls, shops, and fanciful, colorful animal statues from Oaxaca.

This large Puerto Vallarta resort and convention center attracts families and couples for active vacations and tranquil sunbathing.
