Property really nice, had a great room with a nice sea view, infinity pool really nice with fantastic sunsets. Pool staff really good. Reception welcome not so good, so many rules to go through then after that your passed onto the concierge welcome who try to schedule you to buy timeshare. Not great after travelling a day and half. Reception team on checkout quite rude. But overall hotel nice, food good.

BEAUTIFUL resort. It has everything you could ask for, definitely caters more towards gay men and has an option for whichever is your way to enjoy.. There’s Mantamar Beach Club, which is a great pool party atmosphere with beach access and wait staff to bring you a good selection of food and drinks. The roof top bar was great for breakfast and every night they had drag shows and other entertainment that wasn’t bad. Eden is more chill and super relaxing, and that 50m infinity pool is really something. Very nice aesthetic in Eden The only thing I didn’t like, if I’m being honest, is the timeshare pitch. They sort of code the language and call it a “membership” and are really pushy and assumptive the way they get you to agree to the whole thing. Beware.. a free breakfast or massage is really not worth hours out of your day, unless you really want to pay them in the tens of thousands of dollars to essentially have same vacation for the next ten years, don’t do it. And “no commitment” quickly changes to them interrogating you, fishing for information. They also make it sound like they’re almost entirely members only, but i asked around, and I could not find a single person that was a “member”. Not a single person. The vibe sort of changed after the timeshare experience, because you really get the sense that is what it’s all about. The concierge and all the different employees they pass you off to are all under pressure to get you to buy this timeshare it’s obvious.

I have stayed at this resort 3 years ago, this time around everything had change. The resort has become more money hungry and Icalled housekeeping to clean our balcony that was full of sand from the rain storm a night prior, they ignored me all together. This use to be a great place and safe place to stay, needless to say, I will not be returning. They charge way too much for being in Mexico and have gotten out of hand.

I booked a room with 2 queen beds but was given a room with one king sized bed but that was quickly resolved. The other issue was the air conditioning didn’t work well at night in addition I was in the Mantamar building in what seemed like the basement with a view of the construction site.

6/10 Good

This is a 3-star hotel at a 5-star price. We booked it because it looked fantastic but in real life it’s just an average hotel. Pros - it’s right on the beach - if you don’t plan on leaving the hotel you’re good - the staff were all very nice - it was clean Cons - biggest in the price. Just way too expensive - second is the location. It doesn’t look like it on the map but this is a good solid walk to the main gay bars and restaurants. Basically every time we left the hotel we had to hoof it and in the heat you’re going to be drenched in sweat by the time you get to your destination action. So basically you’re gonna need a taxi. - if you plan on having any ‘fun’ in your room, this is a definite no. All guests must check in and you have to sign a waiver…for every guest. - the drinks were SO expensive. My partner sat by the pool on our first full day and he wasn’t chugging down a ton of drinks and when they brought the bill it was over $300. It was just him - so about $25 per drink. So if we were to come back to PV we would not stay here. There are better, less expensive options.
