The property was extremely well maintained. The beach is beautiful and you can walk for miles in either direction. There is no seaweed problem in Puerto Vallarta! Food options at the hotel are delicious but for a stay longer than 5 days you will likely repeat meals. The Italian "pop-up" pizza and pasta was outstanding. Service was great poolside and at the restaurants.

Our recent stay was overall very enjoyable, and we truly appreciated many aspects of the property. The food was consistently good, and we especially liked that the pools never felt overly crowded. The views—from both our room and the sky bar—were absolutely stunning and added a special touch to the experience. Service throughout the resort was attentive and prompt. A special mention goes to Francisco at the beach club, who was fantastic, and to our butler, Hector, who went above and beyond to ensure we were well taken care of every day. There are a few areas where enhancements could make the guest experience even better. For example, it would be nice to have a swim-up bar or a convenient spot to grab quick snacks by the pool. Additionally, for a room priced at over $900 per night, it seems reasonable to expect basic amenities like dish soap and laundry detergent to be provided without having to request them. For families traveling with young children, including essentials like milk with the upgraded snack service would also be a thoughtful touch. We did take advantage of the in-room babysitting service one evening. While we were initially a bit hesitant, Michelle was wonderful with our 20-month-old and quickly put us at ease. Overall, we had a lovely time and would certainly consider returning, especially with a few small improvements that would elevate the luxury experience to match the price point.

Marival Distinct was a first class property in terms of the location and rooms and grounds. The staff was kind and capable. On the side of "needs work" I didn't enjoy the food as much as I would have imagined I would, and didn't care for the odd presence of artificial sweetener in all the drinks. I also would have liked a bit of a beer selection. Just Modelo and Corona were offered. I enjoyed my stay largely but may be the type of guest that needs to get out a bit more over a week in Mexico as well.

Very different from your usual all inclusive resorts. Do your research. Lots of strict rules. No taking food to go. No buffet. Sit down restaurants only. Annoying sales pitch at check in. Questions like "What do you do for a living"? No getting room key till you get through the pitch. No bottled water anywhere. Have to pay extra for bottled water... Room service is 10% charge. Tough with little kids with no buffet. Asked for ice cream to go at the restaurant by the pool, not allowed. Have to sit down to eat. Ice cream only after 1 pm... No more towels by the beach and infinity pool. They give you some kind of thin blankets to lie on.
